Super Mario RPG (subtitled Legend of the Seven Stars in its original English release) is Exactly What It Says on the Tin: it is the first Eastern RPG in the Mario brand, developed by Square and published by Nintendo in 1996 for the SNES. It was also a Trope Codifier of Mascot RPG spin-offs for video game franchises that you wouldn't think would lend themselves to a Role-Playing Game format.During a routine princess-saving by Mario, a giant sapient sword plants itself into Bowser’s Keep, booting everyone inside out, and the castle is taken over by a mechanical menace named Smithy, who plans to Take Over the World with his army of living weapons, with the sword, Exor, acting as a gateway between worlds. Soon afterwards, a messenger from the stars named Geno (or rather, "♡♪!?") informs us that Exor also shattered the Star Road,note Last seen in Super Mario World as a hidden 8th World. which grants the wishes of everyone in Mario's world. Unless the Star Road can be repaired by finding and re-assembling the seven Star Pieces, no wishes will ever come true again. With the help of his companions (including, for the first time, Bowser), Mario sets off to smash the Smithy Gang and save the world.The game was one of the first to engage in a full-on Lampshade Hanging frenzy regarding the tropes of both the Mario series and Square's own RPGs. Mario has no speaking role (because he's the silent RPG protagonist), so he has to act out all of his "lines" in mime (including doing an impression of Bowser). This would also be the first Mario game to feature extensive storytelling and characterization, and introduced the concept of Bowser being portrayed as a more complex and potentially sympathetic character. Nintendo would take these themes and run with them, producing a series of pseudo-sequels without Square's involvement, Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi, though the latter series would have involvement from both SMRPG directors and composer. Nintendo and Square would eventually collaborate again, starting with Mario Hoops 3-on-3 on the Nintendo DS.Due to licensing problems, very few of the characters that made their debut in this game have recurred in later Mario games, including fan-favorite Geno. The original Super Mario RPG itself, however, has made consistent reappearances in places where Nintendo collects retro games; the respective Virtual Consoles for both Wii and Wii U (before their respective stores shut down) have carried the game in all regions, and SMRPG is also among the 21 games included on the SNES Classic Edition.A Video Game Remake was released for the Nintendo Switch on November 17, 2023, developed by ArtePiazza. The remake features upgraded 3D graphics, a rearranged soundtrack done by original composer Yoko Shimomura (with the option of using the original soundtrack as well), post-game rematches against harder versions of bosses, a Monster Compendium, support for languages other than Japanese and English, and other new additions such as a Combination Attack.Trailers: June Direct, September Direct, November Overview Trailer, Launch Trailer. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_123f1464 | comment |
No Item Use for You: Bowyer shoots arrows to disable buttons on your controller, thus preventing Mario from either attacking, casting spells or using items. Later, in the Moleville Mines, Croco will challenge you to a fight. After he loses half of his HP, he will steal all of your items, and you won't be able to use them again until you defeat him. | |

The Artifact | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_13d7a65e | comment |
The Artifact: The Toad in Marrymore who offers to buy the Bright Card is still present, but his general role to hold the Bright Card safe is removed since it's now a Key Item which doesn't take up a slot like the previous iteration, who now only exists as a quick way of getting coins or Frog Coins which is diminished by the more abundant sources for both. The inns to restore HP and MP become this compared to the original. Because fast travelling through the menu is a thing, many inns such as the one in Barrel Volcano become slightly redundant as it is possible to just fast travel to Mario's Pad and recover HP for free. However, some inns provide extra items and content for the player such as the ones in Marrymore and Nimbus Land. | |

Trailers Always Spoil: Culex's existence was spoiled in some promotional material, though it's not much of a spoiler anymore, anyway. This was however likely to deflect from the bigger spoiler that Culex has a second battle where he gets a completely updated 3D model, which was well hidden until the game's release. | |

Unexpected Gameplay Change | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_1467a30c | comment |
Unexpected Gameplay Change: Most of the minigames put much more emphasis on isometric platforming in comparison to the rest of the game, which is a JRPG with some simple platforming areas. In Bowser's keep, you come to an area where you have to complete four of six minigames to proceed. Two are just gauntlets of enemies, two are platforming obstacle courses, and the final two are tests of intelligence, including a rather complex logic problem. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: While downplayed as it retains the series' usual wacky humor, this was by far the darkest Mario title at the time of its release, owing largely to Smithy and his gang being absolutely irredeemable dimensional conquerors who are trying to permanently transform the Mushroom Kingdom into a dead, dark world full of machinery and weapons instead of innocent life. They make the "Bowser has kidnapped the princess again" plots of previous games look like child's play. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_15430b2f | comment |
Randomized Damage Attack: The Masher's primary trait. While it has a higher max attack rating than most of Mario's weapons up to a certain point in the game, it also has far far lower minimum attack rating, meaning that it can either do several hundred points of damage, or six. | |

Where It All Began: The first stage you enter is Bowser's Keep, when Exor flings you out and makes the original path you took impossible to take again. Ultimately you need to reenter the castle to challenge the invader. To do this you travel the long way around, eventually forming a complete circle on your map. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_164098bc | comment |
Enter Solution Here: In Johnny's ship, you have to spell out a six-letter word. There are six clues: an "s" is in the word, it's found on the bed of the ocean, the word has two vowels, the word has four consonants, the word has two consonants side-by-side, and that the "r" comes before the "l". Note that two of the clues makes two others redundant. It's also possible to enter some words that seem to meet the requirements (e.g. "Corals"), but are rejected in favor of the correct answer. | |

Czar Dragon's name is shared with a boss that was Dummied Out from the original version of Final Fantasy VI. Although the boss appeared in that game's Game Boy Advance Updated Re-release, it was retranslated as Kaiser Dragon, making the connection with this game's Czar Dragon less obvious. | |

Dungeon Shop | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_172079cb | comment |
Dungeon Shop: Shops start appearing in dungeon areas late in the game, such as a Shaman's shop in the Sea/Sunken Ship, Croco selling the strongest armors in Bowser's Keep, and Toad's Last Stop Shop within the Factory a few rooms before Smithy. Hinopio's "Hino Mart" in Barrel Volcano combines an equipment shop, an item shop, and an inn. Hinopio seems very surprised to see Mario, hanging a lampshade on the fact that he doesn't get many customers. The owner is the only employee, running between the three counters, and the accommodations at the Inn are a bit spartan; agree to spend the night and Mario wakes up face-down on a very uncomfortable-looking pile of crates. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_174c358e | comment |
Star Power: The star pieces, though they are only MacGuffins with no in-game use. Geno's magic, which involves lasers and other beams of light, makes a star aura appear around his body; his best spell has him shoot a small sun, which then explodes. His best weapon literally shoots stars at the enemy, as well. The Princess's "Come Back" move appears to call a star from the heavens to revive a fallen party member. Perhaps even the broken Star Road has its uses? | |

Global Currency Exception | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_17aaf656 | comment |
Global Currency Exception: The main currency of the game is coins, but tadpoles/frogs only accept much rarer Frog Coins. This includes the Frog Coin Emporium in Tadpole Pond, which has rare Fright Bombs and stat-buffers, and the frog student in Seaside Town, who sells one-of-a-kind items and accessories. There's a shop in Moleville that only sells three of the bomb-type items (Fright, Fire, and Ice), and they don't take money at all. Instead you trade them items, and receive points based on their value. 100 points earns a bomb of your choice. | |

Power-Up Letdown | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_18683fc2 | comment |
Power Up Letdown: Moves or items that cure status effects are very useful for obvious reasons, especially Toadstool's Group Hug. There's one small issue, however, in that these don't differentiate between negative and positive status effects. One of the best items in the game, Red Essence, grants three turns of invincibility through a status effect, and using a status-curer without thinking can end the invincibility early and waste a very limited resource. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: Samus and Link are resting in hotels at certain points in the game. Samus can also be seen as a doll in Booster's toy box. Two of the other dolls in the box are also cameos (difficult to parse on the SNES, but blatantly obvious in the remake): Disk-kun (the mascot of the Famicom Disk System) and a Stunt Race FX vehicle (probably intended to be F-Type based on its make and red paintjob, but the colors don't exactly match). You can see models of an Arwing, a Blue Falcon, and a Fire Stingray in the shop of Barrel Volcano. Luigi is only seen at the very end of the game leading the parade. You also get to see his wish on Star Hill if you know where to look. Outside of the game, he also give commentary in the game's manual. One of the portraits in Booster's Tower looks like Wario. Seeing how Booster is an expy of Wario, this makes sense. Amidst all the Nintendo cameos, there's exactly one explicit Squaresoft cameo in the game: a toy Magitek Armor on the desk in the first room of Booster Tower. Like the toybox items, this is hard to parse on the SNES but is more visible in the remake. | |

End of an Age | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_1bc2e445 | comment |
End of an Age: In a couple ways: this was the last Mario title released on the Super Nintendo, as well as being the last time Square would work with Nintendo to bring a new game to a Nintendo console before they jumped to Sony's PlayStation. The two companies would not collaborate on a new title until Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles on the GameCube. | |

The Spiny | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_1c4e1b6b | comment |
Relatedly, while it's still not a good idea for Mario to use Jump moves on spiky foes (without the Jump Shoes accessory), the only consequence is that the monster won't take damage. Future RPGs would see Mario hurt himself by putting the boots to these enemies, just like in the platformers. | |

Cowardly Mooks | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_1ce9e3fb | comment |
Cowardly Mooks: There are a number of mooks that will often turn tail and run: Crooks and their Underground Monkey equivalent Sackits will often turn tail and run when their turn comes up. Shy Rangers will flee as soon as they get their turn (unless they're afflicted with a status ailment, for some reason). They're also normally much faster than player characters, requiring speed-increasing equipment to outspeed. In the second visit to Bowser's Castle, having Bowser in the active party can scare away Gu Goombas (Pro Goombas in the remake), Terra Cottas, and Malakoopas. | |

Digitized Sprites | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_1f69db36 | comment |
The game's graphics have been redone from the ground up, sporting various touch-ups that weren't possible with the SNES original. Camera angles in cutscenes are dynamic instead of being locked to an isometric view, animations are smoother with more tweaking between keyframes, the game has real 3D models instead of Digitized Sprites, the overworld now features graphics beyond the playable area instead of just a voidnote For example, the Mushroom Kingdom is depicted on top of a hill and prominent lighting is used in places where the original didn't have it (such as the rays of sunlight in Peach's throne room now casting reflections on the marble floor, or bright, colorful light sources in the scene where Mario gets washed down an underground river). Additionally, the game's art style finds a middle ground between past and present, taking the look of most 21st century Mario media and refitting it for the SNES game's stout, toylike designs. This includes the Beezosnote Shy Aways as the original game called them, who now match the modern Shy Guy design, as well as the Snifits and the Snifsters, who now match the modern color designs of Blue and Black Shy Guys. | |

Inn Security: Entering Rose Town's inn gets Mario knocked out, and Geno awakens that night. At first, the Seaside Town inn is free... but the "innkeeper" will take the chance to watch you sleep. Monstro Town's "inn" (actually just a room with a bed) is also free, but happens to be haunted by the Three Musty Fears who are actually very friendly and set up a game for Mario which rewards him with a free item. | |

Leaked Experience: This game gives everyone experience for a battle, regardless of whether or not they participated or even survived. Truly a sign of a more entry-level RPG. However, your party members are always a set level and have a set number of experience points when they join. With some fine-tuning, you can set it up so that everyone has the same amount of experience points and levels up at the same time. | |

Last Lousy Point | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_23168b93 | comment |
Last Lousy Point: There are 30 invisible treasure boxes and you can get an accessory halfway through the game that will alert you if an invisible treasure box is in the area. Many players had gotten 29 out of 30 boxes and were stumped to see that the last missing one was in the main hallway inside the Mushroom Kingdom's castle. How do you get it? Jump on Toad's head as he opens the door when you enter the castle for the first time and then jump up above the doorway to reach the box. Missed it and saved afterwards? Too bad, start the game over. At the very least, the box only contains a frog coin. Thankfully, the remake lets you bounce off of any Toad's heads at any time. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_23473ae7 | comment |
Adaptation Expansion: The remake now includes a Monster List, which is a more detailed counterpart to the Tattle Logs, though has more in common with the bestiaries in Final Fantasy games. There's a new Scrapbook feature that keeps track of the plot events that occur in the game. Most of the entries are written in-character by Mallow or Geno. The Stinger now involves Mallow — who's holding the Geno Doll — and Bowser joining Mario and Princess Peach on their star-shaped float at the end of the parade. The "Where Are They Now?" Epilogue includes two new scenes - one of Gaz and his mother playing together with his dolls and one of the Monstro Town stars entertaining a small crowd. | |

Adaptation Deviation | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_23a1e2a9 | comment |
Adaptation Deviation: Although much of the dialogue remains intact from the SNES English script, some parts were touched up a bit, usually to make it closer to the original Japanese script. For example, in the beginning where Bowser's chandelier is about to fall, Bowser gives his Chaindelier several words of encouragement to have it hold on whereas in the original he simply tells it to hang on. Likewise, when the castle starts rumbling, Peach gets surprised and says the castle is rumbling whereas in the original, she shrieks out that she's going to fall. There's also the instance of Pa Mole telling his wife to calm down being changed from "Settle down, woman!" to "Settle down, Ma!", likely to avoid making the character look sexist. The sign on Mario's home was changed from Pipe House (SNES version) to Mario House (remake). Likewise, the welcome sign at Booster Tower no longer has Japanese letters. At certain parts of the story, Mario's party members will tell you where to go next and can dabble in some banter among themselves. Likewise, visiting Vista Hill will have Mario's party members discuss the current situation in the story depending on how far you progressed and who is in the party at the time. This was not present in the SNES version. The remake has a limit on how many items of each type you're allowed to carry and anything over the cap gets sent to Mario's storage box at his house. The original game had let you carry as many multiples of the same item you could as long as you had the space for it. Originally, Bowser's troop leaders in Rose Way didn't have names. The remake gives them names (Jagger for the Terrapin, Goomhilde for the Goomba, and Wizakoopa for the Magikoopa), which has the former two showing up in Monstro Town and the latter appearing in Bowser's Keep in order to link them with their AWOL status from Bowser's army as they did in the original. Jagger existed in the original game, but his identity wasn't revealed until you met him in Monstro Town. In the original game when Gaz's Geno doll hits Mario, it was a rocket punch. The remake changes it to a barrage of pellets. When Mario attempts to go after Bowyer before Geno appears, Mallow would pull Mario back and say "Who do you think you are, Bruce Lee?" The remake drops the Bruce Lee reference, possibly because the Lee estate is known to be very litigious about their late patriarch's name, or possibly because someone on the development team realized that it wouldn't make any sense for citizens of the Mario world to know who Bruce Lee is, since the names of real-life explorers on the Sunken Ship password hints have also been changed to fictional ones. The password Booster uses to unlock the door to the balcony is based on your active Nintendo Switch profile name. The original game would use the name you gave to your save file. Mario's victory pose no longer has him flash the “V for Victory� sign. Similarly, Bowser's victory pose was changed so he no longer does the Bicep-Polishing Gesture (Japanese version) or the double fist pump (non Japanese version). Mallow and Peach's "V" sign poses were also removed and they were given new victory poses. Luigi's wish at Star Hill now says that he wants to help out Mario rather than be a great plumber like him. Valentina and several Nimbus Land citizens no longer call Dodo fat, although one or two still point out his big size. Several other plump characters likewise have their names changed to avoid making reference to their weight; Tub-O-Troopa becomes "Grand Koopa," and "Heavy Troopa" becomes "Big Troopa." Fautso the genie was renamed "Jinnie." Garro's description of Mario has him pointing out his features representing his love for his brother whereas the SNES version had him describe Mario as a sad blue collar worker. In the original game, the Signal Ring is acquired from Croco in Nimbus Land after defeating Valentina, very late in the game. In the remake, it's acquired much earlier from the elderly Toad in the basement of the Mushroom Kingdom's item shop who teaches you about hidden chests, while Croco now has the Echo Signal Ring, an upgraded version which beeps faster the closer you get to a hidden chest. Originally, Culex's defeat had him "explode" in stars like any other enemy. In the remake, his sprite shakes and fades away as a reference to how boss enemies in the SNES Final Fantasy games would fade when defeated. Culex's normal physical attack also has his sprite flash white before he attacks, which is also a reference to how Final Fantasy enemies would do the same (he didn't do this in the SNES version). When Peach loses her accessories in Marrymore, her crown and brooch are now visibly missing from her person until they're returned to her. Nearly every enemy thought seen through Mallow's Thought Peek skill (Psychopath in the SNES version) were rewritten for the remake. Only a few remained untouched. Several attacks that could not be blocked originally (such as the Lightning Orb spell and Croco's bombs) can now be mitigated with a timed hit. Enemies suffering from status effects will be visibly shown in a similar manner to the player's party. The SNES version didn't have it, so you had to guess whether or not enemies were actually suffering from status effects. If they have the sleep status, they even get a sleeping animation. When he was defeated in the original game, Smithy's sprite would use its attack animation in a loop upon being defeated depending on what form he was in. The remake has him revert to his default head/skull form and then bash his head with his hammer when defeated. The fifth Star Piece is recolored from deep blue to pink, likely to make it stand out more from the first Star Piece. | |

Mythology Gag | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Mushroom Castle now has a blue roof despite having a red one on the overworld in the SNES release, in order to keep it consistent with the map and the distant shot of it in the end credits which depicts the castle with a blue roof. The remake's box art is based on the original Japanese boxart. The button prompts in battles are still color coded, even though the Switch’s buttons are uniform. A is red, B is yellow, X is blue, and Y is green, which matches the Super Famicom's layout. This applies to Bowyer's battle as well. Interestingly, the Super Famicom layout is used in all versions of the remake, including the North American version which originally had purple button prompts that matched the SNES controller. The file select/save screen has its borders based on the Japanese version of the original game. The background art on the pause menu is the same as the one from the original. In the level-up screens, Mario's dance now resembles The Mario. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_26ba32a3 | comment |
Ascended Glitch: A few major oversights in the original game were kept as intended features. It's still possible to skip part of Claymorton's cutscene, namely the part where two of his Bodyguards dispose of themselves by knocking each other off the stairs, by jumping behind them. In which case, they just get so excited that they bounce themselves into the holes they're usually seen in. The usual limitation on the Geno Whirl's One-Hit Kill ability in boss fights does not apply to Exor, much as it didn't due to a programming oversight in the original game. | |

Party in My Pocket | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_28a3b1a8 | comment |
Party in My Pocket: Played with repeatedly: After a conversation is supposedly concluded, all the characters prepare to step back inside Mario. The speaker then remembers something and when he says, "Oh and one more thing..." all the characters bump heads. A moment later, when the speaker has finished for real, they start to move into Mario again, and Mario makes them stop until he's ready. The other party members are also apparently literally inside Mario (or merged with him, or something), rather than metaphorically. Check out the reaction of the Mushroom Chancellor and his court when Bowser steps out. You'd think they'd have noticed the giant turtle-dragon if he'd actually been present prior to this. Similarly, at one point after Bowser joins the party a Mushroom Kingdom citizen will start to tell you what an awful, evil person he thinks Bowser is. Bowser growls from (apparently) inside Mario, causing the guy to ask wildly what that horrible noise was. | |

Non-Indicative Name: Both Croco and Lakitu will use an attack called "Chomp".

There is a biting attack in the game, though it's called "Carni-Kiss". The remake instead calls Chomp the more sensible "Monster Toss". In most games, a Drain ability will damage the target's HP while healing the enemy, steal MP from the target, or something similar. In this game, it's a relatively weak fireball attack due to the fact that, in Japanese, it's called Fireball. The English script for the remake instead calls them Hot Shot and Fire Saber. Bundt is a wedding cake, not a bundt cake. The remake even has its Monster Compendium entry lampshade this. The Alley Rat enemies are encountered in a sunken ship, not an alley. | |

Easter Egg | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_29a39f6 | comment |
Easter Egg: Walking behind one of the curtains in Booster's Tower will transform you into 8-bit Mario. The cameos of Link and Samus. Samus only appears for a short time after a certain event is completed, while Link can appear anytime after the proper story progress. Talking to Link will play the "Puzzle Solved" jingle from the Zelda series. There's a character hidden behind the left-most house in the Mushroom Kingdom whose dialogue changes with most major plot events. Hacking and emulation revealed that this character doesn't have a sprite. An Easter egg exclusive to the Japanese version of the game plays a short cutscene of Toad mocking the concept of Classic Cheat Codes if you input a certain button combination. The gag was added to all regional versions in the remake. Beds can be jumped on, and will continually bounce Mario until he jumps off. In the save menu, when being asked if you want to override your save file and repeatedly choose "No", Mario may make his "Muted" pose, or one where he faces left with Exor's eyes. This is also present in the remake. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_2a090d00 | comment |
Lampshade Hanging: The general reaction from NPCs to Bowser having kidnapped the princess is a rather blasé and/or exasperated "What, again?" After beating the Axem Rangers, they use their ship weapon against you. In the Japanese version and the English Switch remake, using Mallow's Psychopath will net you a remark about how it was not used right from the start. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_2afb1a9 | comment |
Limit Break: The "Triple Move" acts as one, which can be used once a gauge reaches 100% during battles, with successful Action Commands helping fill the gauge faster. You initially start the game with a roulette of different effects, (this later becomes the standby version if at least one of your active party members are unable to act) until the battle against Bowyer unlocks the full set. These range from extreme attacks to support. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
The inventory system has been completely reworked. Instead of having an overall inventory limit, now each item has its own limit on how many you can hold at a time. While this does mean you can't stack the best healing items like the original game, it also means a lot of the other items normally considered Awesome, but Impractical due to being too specific to justify eating up inventory space (Pure Water and the like) are now worth keeping around. This even extends to Honey Syrup, as most players in the original would just hoard their flower tabs and boxes to completely restore FP over using them. | |

Bowyer also serves as a wake-up call gimmick boss. After depleting some of his HP, Bowyer will lock out the battle commands (attack, items, and abilities) you've used most the past few turns and he will utterly destroy you if you don't quickly adapt to having an option taken from you. This is also the battle where Geno joins, so it's necessary to quickly learn his timed hits so he can help damage Bowyer instead of being a Glass Cannon liability. | |

Beef Gate: By exploiting a glitch in Kero Sewers, you can reach a pipe that leads to the much later area Land's End. A nearby Shy Away talks to you after you exit the pipe, saying "This is a dead end, so it's best to turn back now." You can try to fight them if you want, but it certainly won't end well, so it's best to just listen to the Shy Away's words. | |

Final Boss, New Dimension: After fighting Exor, he swallows you up into a level called Gate. This strange void eventually merges into the Factory, the location of the seventh Star Piece. | |

Magikarp Power: The attack power of Mario's Jump special increases by 1 every time you use it, all the way up to +127 ATK. Of course, the game makes no mention of this whatsoever and it does not apply to the Super Jump or Ultra Jump. | |

Tile-Flipping Puzzle: In the return to Bowser's Keep near the end of the game, one of the puzzles consists of a 4x4 grid of buttons, pressing a button causes the immediately adjacent buttons to switch from pressed to un-pressed and vice versa, you cannot manually un-press a button, and the goal is to make all the buttons pressed. | |

Exor's mouth is translated as "Neosquid", a bizarre name that doesn't line up with the Japanese text. There's no official explanation for the mistake, though it's speculated to be the result of misinterpreting a sprite.ExplanationIn order for a boss as big as Exor to work, most of its body is a static background with the attacking parts being sprites, making it possible that the mouth was seen separately from the rest of the boss and assumed to be a squid-like creature. | |

Booster's Monster List entry is automatically added if you're able to avoid being detected during the curtain minigame at Booster Tower, meaning you don't have to choose between obtaining Booster's Charm or intentionally failing the minigame so you can complete your Monster List. A similar thing happens to Cloaker and Domino later regarding their Power Up Mount Bad Adder/Mad Adder which has the opposing entry added if you fought the other one. | |

Elemental Powers: The attack elements of this game are limited to fire, ice, lightning, and "jump", which only applies to Mario's jump attacks. There aren't any other elements in the game, even though one of Culex's crystals is earth-elemental and uses appropriate attacks (Sand Storm, Boulder, and Water Blast). A lot of the most dangerous magic attacks are Non-Elemental so they can't be blocked by the Safety Ring. | |

Mario initially sets out to get Toadstool back and has to rescue her from Booster, but after saving her they decide they need to stop their primary enemy, Smithy, a task Princess Toadstool joins the team to complete. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_480c69ba | comment |
Infinity -1 Sword: The Ultra Hammer for Mario, found at the beginning of the Gate, and the Super Slap, found in one of the Bowser's Keep hallways. Mario and Toadstool can get stronger weapons before even entering Bowser's Keep, though these have a slight advantage of lower damage variance (making it less likely that the game will roll a lower damage amount when used). The Jinx Belt accessory isn't as strong as the Quartz Charm (it gives a flat stat bonus instead of a multiplier), but is gotten from an easier Optional Boss and isn't nullified by Shredder. | |

Dual Boss | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_486466ee | comment |
Dual Boss: The first proper boss after the tutorial is a pair of Hammer Brothers, despite only one appearing in the overworld. The Monster Compendium data in the remake even lampshades this. Knife Guy and Grate Guy, the jester bosses of Booster Tower. While both are alive, they can stack on top of each other to gain stronger attacks. Valentina and Dodo are an odd version. The battle starts with Dodo confronting the middle party member in the lineup, taking them into a solo fight. Following that, the remaining two party members fight Valentina, and once she takes enough damage, Dodo and the separated party member will return and make the fight into a conventional dual boss. Cloaker and Domino, followed by (depending on which one you beat) Cloaker and Earth Link, or Domino and Mad Adder. In the second phase, only the boss's snake needs to be killed, but depleting the rest of its rider's HP will stop them from attacking alongside it. Factory Chief and Gunyolk. Factory Chief is much weaker and uses single-target status effect attacks, while Gunyolk uses the party-hitting Breaker Beam every other turn and spends other turns using strong magic. The chest monsters Box Boy and Chester, which respectively summon a Fautso and a Bahamutt. | |

Paper-Thin Disguise: When Mario arrives in Seaside Town, the local Elder (as well as all of the citizens) are dressed in identical gray clothes, speak in a strange, stilted tone, and are generally suspicious. Played with in that while it's obvious the Elder is a member of the Smithy Gang, it's impossible to know what member, so technically the disguise "works" insofar as you don't know who he really is (turns out it's Yaridovich). | |

Going Through the Motions: There's a funny example in Moleville, where Mario does the joyous "Star-Piece-holding" pose to behold the hole he made in Dyna and Mite's ceiling. This was kept in the Switch remake! Every animation a bad guy has can be viewed in their specific entry in the Switch remake's Journal. This even includes the spells they cast. The Switch remake has a slight visual bug with Geno's special moves that require charging; around a second before you're supposed to actually start charging, the animation loop of his cape fluttering will abruptly stop and restart. | |

Do Well, But Not Perfect | |

The Goomba-Thump mini-game was rather infamous for its reward system, where the score needed for rewards would jump to your score+2, making it extremely difficult to achieve all rewards unless you meticulously invoke Do Well, But Not Perfect to minimize the increase in score. In the remake, the score needed to achieve rewards will always be the previous high score+2, going from 20 to 22 to 24 to 26 to 28 and finally to 30, making it much easier to achieve all rewards. | |

But Thou Must! | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_504e271f | comment |
But Thou Must!: You are given the option of telling Mallow that you will not help him, but doing so causes him to keep crying until you agree. Since his crying causes it to rain, this is a bit of a big deal. In the Coal Mines, you eventually come across an area that circles itself with no other way to progress except for a trampoline. Jumping on it makes Mario crash into the ceiling and he falls unconscious, which allows Croco to steal all of Mario's coins. You can't bypass the trampoline and even if you were to ignore Croco's theft of your coins, you still have to hunt him down in order to open up the next area. Once you rescue Toadstool, if you try to leave Marrymore in the way that doesn't go back to the castle, your party members will come out one by one convincing you to go the other way. What makes this odd is that both exits are functionally identical, since they just take you to the world map anyway. After sending Toadstool back to the Mushroom Kingdom palace, she escapes to rejoin the team. Mario cannot leave the town until he accepts Toadstool back. | |

Death Is a Slap on the Wrist: Losing a battle sets you back to your last save point used, and they appear quite frequently so you are never set too far back in progress. While you do lose any coins or items gained, you still keep your levels and experience points, so you aren't overwhelmed from fighting tough enemies again. As if that weren't enough, the remake also autosaves, making your last save likely even sooner than in the original. | |

Not Completely Useless | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_54ec2f0c | comment |
Not Completely Useless: The Defend command is rendered largely moot by timed hits, which can reduce or even nullify damage without taking up a turn. However, it can potentially come in handy: In the fight against Birdo, her eggs can only be reflected by the Defend command. Reflecting the eggs will turn them into active targets, which means they can then be destroyed to inflict massive damage to Birdo. Slightly later, you have to fight the Axem Rangers' airship the Blade, whose Breaker Beam is a magic attack that hits your party for massive damage and can't be blocked with a timed hit, but can only be used every other turn, allowing the player to mitigate damage by defending on the turn it unleashes it. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_5534431f | comment |
Money for Nothing: Regular coins become mostly useless towards the end of the game, and even the much rarer Frog Coins don't allow you to get anything that can truly be considered broken. After beating Bowser's Keep, one of Bowser's minions creates a chest that gives you infinite money, as long as you're patient enough to keep hitting it. Unlike coins in the overworld and chests where one coin represents ten coins, one coin from the chest represents only one coin worth of currency. | |

Adaptation-Induced Plot Hole | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_5663a595 | comment |
Adaptation-Induced Plot Hole: In the SNES version, Dodo's comedically oversized helmet covers his eyes and obstructs his vision when he tries to peck Mario, which is why he doesn't see the "statue" jumping out of the way. While the remake's version is technically still there, the new 3D perspective and more subdued animation make it very difficult to make out if you're not already aware of this, making it unclear for new players why Dodo doesn't see anything suspicious. | |

Orphaned Etymology | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_568b9d5 | comment |
When Mario attempts to go after Bowyer before Geno appears, Mallow would pull Mario back and say "Who do you think you are, Bruce Lee?" The remake drops the Bruce Lee reference, possibly because the Lee estate is known to be very litigious about their late patriarch's name, or possibly because someone on the development team realized that it wouldn't make any sense for citizens of the Mario world to know who Bruce Lee is, since the names of real-life explorers on the Sunken Ship password hints have also been changed to fictional ones. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_56b5a6b7 | comment |
Nostalgia Level: One of the rooms in the "action" segments in Bowser's Keep very closely resembles Donkey Kong. Appropriately enough for Mario's first JRPG outing, the game opens in Bowser's Keep, a lava-filled castle with white interiors. The Pipe Vault, which is one square wide to simulate the original platformers, has a bunch of classic enemies (and Frogog for some reason), and even has one part where you slide underneath a small gap by ducking as you run. | |

Disc-One Nuke | |

There's a way to convert Mario's standard 3-FP Jump attack into a Disc-One Nuke. The Jump attack's power rises 1 point for every two uses (up to +125 extra power), eventually becoming the hardest-hitting move in the game. Jump will carry you through the early game right until you get Bowser, which is coincidentally when Mario starts turning into Glass Joe. | |

Contractual Boss Immunity | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_5bb56482 | comment |
"Special Enemies" are beefed up versions of regular enemies which can appear randomly in battle (and have the same exact stats otherwise). They have higher stats and can take far more punishment than their regular counterparts. Additionally, they are invulnerable to Geno Whirl's instant kill effect just like most bosses and other various enemies are. While some aren't terribly difficult, there's some that are even capable of a Total Party Kill depending on the attacks and skills they use. Upon defeating them, you do get a Frog Coin though. | |

Late-Arrival Spoiler: Japanese commercials and previews released at the beginning of November 2023 don't make it a secret that Culex is in the game, considering he's an Optional Superboss that doesn't become available until the latter half of the game. In fact, a lot of pre-release footage of the game has revealed a lot of late-game and end-game content, including almost all of the major bosses (examples being the Axem Rangers and even Boomer) and even footage from as late as the Smithy Factory itself. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_62525a70 | comment |
The remake adds a tag to enemies' magic attacks saying that they can't be blocked, something the original game wasn't clear about when teaching you about timed hits. Moreover, magic as a whole is no longer inherently unblockable; many spells have been given guard windows with retimed animations to match, while "Can't block!" is reserved for party-wide magic and non-damaging status moves. | |

Permanently Missable Content: Averted. The hidden chest in Mushroom Castle is made to be no longer missable, as there is now a Toad NPC that can be used to reach it after Claymorton is defeated. The two missable accessories, Booster's Charm and the Feather, can be gotten later on from different sources if the player messes up the minigames they're tied to. Played straight with the Feather from the minigame for players who want two Feathers but at least one can always be obtained regardless of the player's performance in the minigame. Any monsters you may have missed entirely (such as the King Bomb and Jinx Clone summoned by Wizakoopa) whose entries will be marked as "????" are added to the Monster List after defeating Smithy for the first time, although you still having to pay Frog Coins to the Monster List Agent to have them filled in. Played straight with getting flowers in the Booster Hill minigame depending on how well the player performed, a Mushroom from Granny in Peach's castle and the treasure in the house on the ledge in Rose Town based on the player's actions. However, these items can be easily obtained elsewhere at shops while there are more than enough flowers found that the player can reach the maximum Flower Points at 99. If the player performs poorly in the Booster Hill minigame the first time, some flowers can be found if the player plays it again. | |

The first maze section is a room of six tree stump holes, which have to be searched to find a Wiggler that'll open the path forward. The second is a traditional "find the right path" maze; on the first visit, Mario can follow Geno's path through the woods to reach Bowyer, and there's also a treasure room reached by going in certain directions. | |

Parody Magic Spell: Instead of casting a spell in Hawaiian as in the original script, Wizakoopa now summons a source of infinite coins with the spell "Uget watchoo peifore!" ("You get what you pay for.") | |

Meaningful Name | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: Geno written in Japanese is ジーノ (jiino). jiino is the Japanese transliteration of the English pronunciation of "xeno" (there is traditionally no "zi" sound in Japanese). The word prefix xeno- is Greek for "alien," "strange," "guest." Geno is a being from Star Road that visits Mario's world to retrieve the Star Pieces. Mallow's bodily consistency is like that of marshmallows. Smithy's goons are all modeled after weapons: Mack is a knife. Bowyer is the profession of someone who makes bows. "Yari" means "spear" in Japanese. Yaridovich's design is decidedly spear-like. As noted in the Switch remake section, the character is renamed "Speardovich." Exor's name is likely based on "Excalibur", seeing as he's a sword that gets embedded in a big stone object. The Axem Rangers name speaks for themselves. Gunyolk is a big cannon operated by a yellow, blob-like creature—a gun operated by a yolk. Smithy himself is a weapon maker, i.e., a blacksmith. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_6caf4f3f | comment |
Attract Mode: The game has a lengthy one that largely shows scenes to introduce the characters in ways that never actually happen in the game in the way they are shown. It also happens to hide the existence of the Smithy Gang entirely, which is evident in the Forest Maze segment which shows Wizakoopa firing at Mario and Mallow where Geno shows up (in the actual game, this is the fight between Bowyer). In the remake, no scenes were altered, but it still does hide the existence of the Smithy Gang. | |

Balance Buff | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_6e1e24a | comment |
Balance Buff: The inventory system has been completely reworked. Instead of having an overall inventory limit, now each item has its own limit on how many you can hold at a time. While this does mean you can't stack the best healing items like the original game, it also means a lot of the other items normally considered Awesome, but Impractical due to being too specific to justify eating up inventory space (Pure Water and the like) are now worth keeping around. This even extends to Honey Syrup, as most players in the original would just hoard their flower tabs and boxes to completely restore FP over using them. Mallow has gotten some slight buffs to his spells and physical attacks compared to the original to make him more worth using in boss battles over the other characters, with more enemies having weaknesses to his elements. FP management being much easier due to the reworked inventory system and being able to switch characters out at any time also means his field hitting spells are a lot more enticing. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: The game's Monster List includes if you read an enemy's mind with Mallow's Thought Peak or not. Filling the list can be harder than it looks — putting aside that some enemies are rare and only pop up in certain formations, the game isn't always clear on when visually identical enemies are given separate entries in the menu (like King Calamari's two tentacles, or Dodo when fought alone versus when fought alongside Valentina). There's also a lot of enemies in the game (both bosses and Elite Mooks) who can summon other enemies to assist them, and often they're the only enemy in the game who can call that specific enemy; if you beat them before they summon their allies, you'll miss out on an enemy entry you may not have even know existed. Fortunately, there's an unseen NPC in Booster Pass who will fill in Thought Peak entries for a fee of 3 Frog Coins, including ones you missed, and beating Smithy fills in any enemies the player may have missed during their playthrough. | |

Another Dimension | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_6f572188 | comment |
Another Dimension: Smithy's Factory is located in a dark and gloomy void dimension, with Exor serving as a bridge between the worlds. Culex is from another dimension, and remains in a strange dimensional rift in Monstro Town because Mario's world is uninhabitable for him. The standard meaning of this trope only applies in the English version. In the Japanese version, Culex's talk of dimensions instead refers to the fact that he's a two-dimensional being who cannot comprehend Mario's three-dimensional world. | |

Weapon-Based Characterization: Very few of the main characters, excepting Bowser (who is normally a villain) and Geno (who is a doll with custom toys), use standard weapons per se; Mario has his hammers and shells, Mallow uses staves and cymbals, and Toadstool uses whatever the hell she can find. Actual role-playing game weapons such as swords, knives, and arrows are for Smithy and the villains, who explicitly want to create "a world of weapons", and this is kept consistent throughout the game. | |

What the Hell, Player? | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_72dd7026 | comment |
What the Hell, Player?: A child NPC in the Mushroom Kingdom will ask Mario if he can jump as high as him with enough practice. Say yes and the kid will bounce on his bed hyperactivity. Telling him "Yeah right, kid" will have him stop jumping and get upset at you for crushing his dreams. After meeting Mallow in the Mushroom Kingdom, Mario can choose to either help him get the frog coin back or refuse. Refusing three times will have Mallow cry, surprised that someone like Mario could be so mean. Talking to a nearby NPC afterwards will have her tell you that she doesn't care how high you can jump because being mean is just uncool. In the first room of Booster Tower, among some normal enemies, there are two Spookums apparently having a conversation. Like normal enemies, if you touch one, you will enter a battle; however, after defeating one, its partner will continue talking for a bit, then look around, panic, run to the corner and stay there, shuddering, until you defeat him. | |

Boss in Mook Clothing | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_7b7965dd | comment |
Boss in Mook Clothing: "Special Enemies" are beefed up versions of regular enemies which can appear randomly in battle (and have the same exact stats otherwise). They have higher stats and can take far more punishment than their regular counterparts. Additionally, they are invulnerable to Geno Whirl's instant kill effect just like most bosses and other various enemies are. While some aren't terribly difficult, there's some that are even capable of a Total Party Kill depending on the attacks and skills they use. Upon defeating them, you do get a Frog Coin though. The Machine Made versions of the Smithy Gang are already tougher than the average mook, but are weaker than the real deals. That said, they're also capable of becoming Special Enemies as well, meaning that a Machine Made Bowyer (whose regular counterpart already had more health than the first Bowyer battle) or Yaridovich can be just as tedious as their initial battles. | |

Obviously Evil: It's painfully clear that something is off when Mario first arrives in Seaside Town. The citizens are all dressed identically and speak in a Creepy Monotone; if you sleep at the Inn, you see the innkeeper watching Mario when he wakes up; a large building is being guarded (and Mario can peek inside the window to reveal that there are people inside); and, most tellingly of all, the "town under attack" theme plays despite it being bright and sunny. Unfortunately, there's no way to avoid walking into the extremely obvious trap that the Town Elder lays for you, and you have to recover the fifth Star Piece from the Sunken Ship and give it to him regardless of his transparently evil nature. | |

Too Awesome to Use: KerokeroColas (full HP/FP heal for everyone), Rock Candies (massive damage to all enemies), and especially Red Essences (three turns of invincibility); the first is very expensive and can't be bought until after finishing Toadofsky's sidequest unless you stay in Marrymore's hotel, the second is a rare item from boxes, Mushroom Boy, and using Yoshi Cookies on certain enemies, and the third is even rarer and can only be gotten rarely from Grate Guy or by the Dream Cushion in Nimbus Land outside of boxes. Thankfully, you have a chance of getting a "freebie" whenever you use any item, so luck (or Save Scumming) can allow you to use them multiple times. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_80a62687 | comment |
Monster Town: Monstro Town is populated with Goombas, Koopa Troopas, Thwomps, and other classic Mario enemies alongside some other monsters unique to Super Mario RPG like the Starslap. They do not fight you and are all pretty peaceful. | |

Mercy Invincibility | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_825f60fa | comment |
In Kero Sewers, there's a pipe that leads to the late-game area Land's End and a chest containing Cricket Jam, a sidequest item for Frogfucius. While the pipe is on a platform too high to jump to, it's possible to reach it by getting into a fight with one of the Boos in the area and fleeing from it; enemies have a form of Mercy Invincibility when fled where they won't trigger a fight when touched for a few seconds, and the player can thus use the Boo as a stepping stone to get up to the pipe. The chest contains a Flower instead (it'll still contain the Cricket Jam when you come back later), and if you go down the pipe into Land's End, the exit is on low ground where the ledge above is too high to jump, and the Shy Away nearby will warn you to turn back because there's no way out from here. | |

Cap | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_834427cd | comment |
Cap: The game's level cap is one of the lowest eastern examples at 30; on the other hand, getting there requires 9999 Experience Points, a massive figure given how little the payouts from enemies are. The amount of coins the party can hold is limited to 999, and some items can sell for more than half of that. The Switch remake adds 9000 to the cap, largely averting this dilemma, though the Frog Coin cap is still left at its astronomical 999. FP caps at 99, which can be reached during or before Barrel Volcano with a bit of luck and searching. The item cap of 20 is much lower than most games of the era, so managing inventory space becomes a challenge. The Switch remake goes the route of giving every item individual cap amounts, and providing an automatic storage bin back at Mario's House (which the game doesn't tell you about until you need it) for all of your treasure-hoarding needs. | |

Logical Weakness | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_83641c73 | comment |
Logical Weakness: The Chest Monster enemies are weak to "jump" element attacks. Since they're disguised treasure boxes, which Mario opens by jumping into them, it makes sense that they'd take extra damage when he attacks by stomping on them. The Geno Clone created by Belome is weak to Fire. Given that Geno is an animated wooden doll, fire would burn him more than it would compared to the others. Similarly, the Bowser Clone is weak to Ice, presumably because turtles are cold-blooded creatures where extremely cold temperatures would cause them issues. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_83b89a9c | comment |
This is the only RPG which places any real emphasis on Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors, with many spells hitting with elemental damage and many opponents having hidden elemental weaknesses/resistances. Later Mario RPGs have significantly simpler Tactical Rock–Paper–Scissors that consist of common-sense interactions like ice-themed enemies being weak to fire or flying enemies floating out of reach from hammers. | |

Life Drain | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_84685817 | comment |
In most games, a Drain ability will damage the target's HP while healing the enemy, steal MP from the target, or something similar. In this game, it's a relatively weak fireball attack due to the fact that, in Japanese, it's called Fireball. The English script for the remake instead calls them Hot Shot and Fire Saber. | |

Puzzle Boss | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_84f4a870 | comment |
Puzzle Boss: The fight against Bowser in the game's start. You can attack him but he eventually stops taking damage and the princess tells you to attack the chain instead so that Bowser falls. Bundt has no Hit Points. Use Psychopath on it and its HP reading will come up zero. Its health is only dictated by the number of lit candles on its head, each candle getting snuffed whenever you land a hit. One relights every time Bundt has his turn, so one must continually pelt Bundt with attacks nonstop to ensure the first phase of this battle ends quickly. The second phase gives the boss back a set amount of HP. The battle against Birdo. Although you can beat Birdo by sheer force, it can be a long battle with lots of healing and reviving, unless you grind up levels to get past her defense. What you aren't told about the fight is if you have your characters use Defend, the eggs will bounce back to Birdo's nest and become targets. Destroying the eggs afterwards creates an explosion that severely hurts Birdo. An NPC in the same area actually hints at it, but it's easy to interpret "when you shield yourself" as meaning executing a timed-defense. | |

Bait-and-Switch: The reveal trailer for the remake initially uses the original's graphics in 16-bit pixel sprites to show the cutscene in which Peach gets kidnapped. When it was originally shown in its associated Nintendo Direct, viewers would be led to initially assume the original game is simply being added to Nintendo Switch Online's library of SNES games... at least, until a hi-res ball of light similar to Geno's true form floats around the scene, before cutting to the remake's higher-fidelity graphics, confirming that the title will not simply be rereleased, but remade. | |

Joke Item | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_8af721f7 | comment |
Joke Item: Playing Knife Guy's and Grate Guy's minigames frequently "rewards" Mario with poor healing items in the form of Wilt Shrooms, Rotten Mushes, and Moldy Mushes (in decreasing order of effectiveness, with the last healing a single point of HP). They can't even be used in battle, leaving them as little more than inventory cloggers. The Triplets in Monstro Town's store sell a type of Mushroom that "Recovers 30 HP, but..." The "but" is that they inflict the Mushroom status to whoever eats it, which gives them health regen at the cost of being unable to act until it wears off. 30 HP is equivalent to a normal Mushroom, which are already very inefficient by that point in the game, so there's no reason to use these except novelty. | |

Skippable Boss: An unintentional one due to a glitch in the game, but the fight with Mack can be skipped entirely. Booster's three Snifit henchmen show up in separate parts of Booster Tower as mini-bosses, but can be ignored without issue. If you manage to survive the curtains minigame, you don't have to fight Booster. Dodo counts twice. The first fight can be skipped by avoiding his pecking while hiding as a statue. The second time you can plow right through him while under the invincibility effects of a Super Star as he tries to flee the castle. You only have to actually fight him the third time, alongside Valentina. | |

Giant Space Flea from Nowhere | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_902fa0b4 | comment |
Giant Space Flea from Nowhere: Punchinello is a Lampshade Hanging of this; you hear nothing about him prior to the fight, and Mallow states outright that he's never heard of him. And he wants to be famous. In fact, the only reason you fight him is because he believes that defeating you will make him famous. The most famous in the game is Bundt, a cake who comes to life with no explanation and decides to attack you. The only sort of hint you get is Chef Torte and his apprentice working especially hard a wedding cake, but this is hardly foreshadowing for a boss fight. Boomer, in Bowser's Keep. A samurai guy who fights on a chandelier? All of these enemies are ostensibly members of the Smithy Gang, but don't follow its weaponry theming and have no role outside of their boss fights. Averted in the remake where his monster entry clarifies he is indeed a creation of Smithy. Cloaker and Domino are weird creatures who appear from nowhere, command a couple of giant snakes, and have no plot relevance to anything. They seem to exist primarily to pad out the Gate section of the Factory. Unlike the rest of Smithy's top brass, they don't even appear to be mechanical. Count Down, a giant alarm clock. You suddenly run into it during your trek through the weapons factory. It's never mentioned before or after the fight. Especially with all of Smithy's main bosses having a weapon theme, this thing sticks out like a sore thumb. | |

Geno Whirl does 9999 damage when done with a frame-precise timed hit. All enemies have less than that; the Final Boss has 8000 HP. Bosses are immune to this attack, however, except for Yaridovich's clone and Exor. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_92bd6627 | comment |
Invincible Minor Minion: The Lakitu you encounter early in the game. All it does is drop enemies for you to fight (which it stops doing after a certain point), and even if you use a cheat device to reach him, you'll find out he has no collision detection, so you can't fight him at all. A later Lakitu in Booster Pass actually can be fought. Nipper Plants/Chompweeds only appear in the Pipe Vault and take Mario's coins if he touches them. They have unused battle data but can't be encountered in a fight. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_92dfffae | comment |
Retraux: Culex’s design wasn’t updated to a 3D model, and still uses his sprite from the original. This strengthens the contrast between him and everything else in the game. That is... unless you unlock the rematch against Culex, in which he transforms into a full 3D model, which gives him a MASSIVE boost in strength, effectively making Culex the hardest of the boss rematches in the remake. In other words, this makes Culex the superboss of the superbosses. The battle with Culex will play the original's version of his theme during his fight, no matter what version of the soundtrack you've selected. Invertedly, the battle with Culex 3D in the post-game plays a new remix of his theme, also regardless of soundtrack selected. The end credits will start off with a blown up replay of the 16 bit parade from the original version, until night falls, at which it will transition to modern HD graphics, and recorded music. Most of the minigames received a new coat of paint... except for the "Beetle Mania" minigame◊, which appears exactly as it did before in the SNES release with the Super Mario World background and the crusty pre-rendered Koopa shells. The only addition is an HD Game Boy-esque border to keep it at the original's 4:3 screen ratio. | |

When you confront Mack, two Shysters try to jump on Mario's head and he deflects them, knocking them off the platform and so only the remaining four aid Mack in the fight. Afterward, those two survive to flee and tell Smithy what happened. If you approach the platform from the sides and thus walk past the Shysters, when Mack does his Dynamic Entry the two are knocked backwards off the platform to keep the story straight. | |

Damn You, Muscle Memory! | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_963086ce | comment |
Damn You, Muscle Memory!: The default controls have you press A when confirming to use an item or a spell, as opposed to the original where you had to press a submenu's respective button to confirm the action. Thankfully, there's an option to use the classic controls if you still want to use them. Played straight with the new shortcut menus for restoring stats via skills or items, which use the A button format regardless. Using items outside of battle now requires pressing X instead of opening the menu, which can trip people up. When doing the Yoshi races in Yo'ster Isle, you must tap A and B based on the button cue that shows up. Even if you're tapping to the beat, if you're not tapping the correct button, Yoshi's going nowhere. The original game didn't care what button you were pressing, as long as you were pressing them to the beat. If you've played the original before then played the remake, you'll have a lot of this due to changes in timing and tells of the Action Commands (as they're called in the remake). Also applies in reverse. The animations in general in the remake may make it harder to time against at first for players coming from the original. While the original game did play in 60 FPS, the animations themselves were jerky enough that you could pluck out which frame of animation to use as a cue. Thankfully, Breezy Mode makes knowing when to hit the button much easier. Most of the single target magic abilities in the remake can be defended against. The original game didn't have this, so it becomes jarring when you realize you can (and probably should) defend against them. When to press a button to defend against some attacks have also changed. For example, when fighting the Hammer Bros and they do their hammer toss, the timing in the original was pressing a button on the last hammer making contact. In the remake, this got changed to pressing a button on the first hammer making contact. Players who used some sort of tell in the animation or audio for enhancing character skills with a timed button press will need to relearn the cue, as the remake mucks with them. For instance, in the original, Mallow's Shocker had a sound effect before the bolt showed up which was useful as a timing cue. In the remake, no sound effect plays, so you have to rely on the animation for your cue. | |

Any resemblance to preexisting apes is purely coincidental.", though their "Don't confuse me with someone else!" from the original English version has been incorporated into their Monster List description. | |

Eating the Enemy: Belome, a dog-like monster found in Kero Sewers, will succumb to hunger pangs after a few turns and swallow one of your party members whole. Fortunately, Mario and friends can pummel him into spitting them out. In the second fight at Belome Temple, Belome creates a clone of the party member after tasting them. After defeating Bundt/Raspberry, a monstrous wedding cake, Booster eats it in one bite. Yoshi can eat enemies when summoned with a Yoshi Cookie and convert them into items. If he can't eat an enemy, he gives a Yoshi Candy instead. | |

Culex is from another dimension, and remains in a strange dimensional rift in Monstro Town because Mario's world is uninhabitable for him.

Infinity +1 Sword | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_a5e02e9e | comment |
Infinity +1 Sword: The Endgame+ adds these for the remaining party to match with Mario's Lazy Shell and Peach's Frying Pan: Mallow gets the Sage Stick from Belome, which got stuck in his throat until the battle against him dislodged it. It is a golden Froggy Stick known as the Sage Stick which belonged to the Frog Sage years ago until he lost it to Belome. Unlike all his other weapons, the Sage Stick increases Mallow's Magic Attack along with his Physical Attack. Geno gets the Stella 023 from Booster after "playing" with him and his new Engine 023. It is a powerful laser attachment which was meant to be used by his train, but forgot to attach it in the first place. He gifts it to Geno since his train is out for repairs. Bowser gets the Wonder Chomp from Punchinello, who after his defeat offers to show his handiwork by upgrading Bowser's Chain Chomp with a golden sheen. | |

Mario himself can be quite mean-spirited (most notably, he attempted to charge at Gaz, intending to hit a child for saying Geno is more popular than Mario, and Mallow has to hold his hand to stop him) and is a heck of a Silent Snarker at times. Later RPGs would tone it down, making Mario into more of an All-Loving Hero. | |

Evolving Attack | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_abc66b07 | comment |
Evolving Attack: Unlike the other party members, who have a variety of special moves, Mario only gets two types: jumping on enemies and shooting fireballs at them. Later variations do more damage or target multiple enemies, but cost more FP. His basic Jump move also gets stronger as it's used, as a form of Magikarp Power. The Lamb's Lure, an enemy-removing item, will turn into the Sheep Attack once "the flock is full", meaning it's succeeded enough times. The Sheep Attack affects every enemy in the fight instead of just one at a time. | |

No-Sell: Characters that take no actual damage from an attack will not flinch in the animation. The Safety Ring makes all elemental attacks cast on the user ineffective, as well as status effects, and it and other late-game accessories nullify instant death attacks. Spiky enemies such as the classic Spinies are completely immune to Mario's jump attacks and they'll take no damage if you jump on them, but wearing the Jump Shoes lets Mario jump on them normally and bypass the immunity. | |

Fire, Ice, Lightning: A variation. Fire, ice, and lightning are forms of elemental damage, just like in ''Final Fantasy." Mario has three fire spells, while Mallow has two lightning spells and an ice spell. The fourth form of elemental damage is Jump, covered by Mario's other spells. The only other option for elemental damage are Fire and Ice Bombs, which can only be bought for coins at one point of the story and are hard to get afterwards. | |

The item cap of 20 is much lower than most games of the era, so managing inventory space becomes a challenge.

Unique Items | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_b11ca36a | comment |
Unique Items: Many of the weapons each character can equip can only be acquired once: Mario: The Hammer he wins by defeating the Hammer Bros. in Mushroom Way is unique. A much later weapon also called "Hammer" can be purchased in Seaside Town, but it has different mechanics. In addition, the Masher in Booster Tower is unique, is are his Penultimate Weapon the Ultra Hammer (found in the Factory) and his Infinity +1 Sword, the Lazy Shell (found in Rose Town). Mallow: The Froggie Stick he is given by Frogfucius if you deliver the Cricket Pie is a unique weapon, as is his ultimate weapon, the Sonic Cymbals (won in the Six Doors trials in Bowser's Keep). Geno: His ultimate weapon, the Star Gun (won in the Six Doors trials in Bowser's Keep). Geno is the only character whose first available weapon (the Finger Shot) can be purchased from stores, although if you revisit Gaz after Rose Town, he gives you a free one. Bowser: The Chomp in Booster Tower is truly one-of-a-kind, as is his ultimate weapon, the Drill Claw (won in the Six Doors trials in Bowser's Keep). Toadstool: Her starting weapon, the Slap Glove (which is already equipped when she joins the party), as well as her Penultimate Weapon, the Super Slap (won in the Six Doors trials in Bowser's Keep) and her Infinity +1 Sword, the Frying Pan (sold as a one-of-a-kind item at the special store in Moleville, as the "Metal Plate"). | |

My Rules Are Not Your Rules: Averted with FP, as enemy groups have an FP pool too. Usually you'll either win or lose long before theirs runs out, though.

Truer to the Text | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_b552b24 | comment |
Truer to the Text: Most Mario game remakes change the designs of mainline characters, especially minor Toads, to be more consistent with the modern designs. The trailer for the remake shows that nearly everyone was given designs that line up with their appearances in the original game, albeit adapted to their modern designs. In the original game, Culex's Fire Crystal had a sun-themed attack named "Corona", which is renamed "Flare" in the remake; while it's most likely at least partially due to real-life circumstances, it's also more accurate to the actual Flare spell used by Final Fantasy bosses, which Culex is a parody of. Some enemy names were corrected to match up with other Mario games, like Shy Away being changed to Beezo. A good chunk of Thought Peek quotes in the English script have been rewritten to hew closer to the original Japanese text. For example, the Guerrilla's Thought Peek has been changed to "I am a work of fiction. Any resemblance to preexisting apes is purely coincidental.", though their "Don't confuse me with someone else!" from the original English version has been incorporated into their Monster List description. In the English version, Culex now questions why Mario and friends are three-dimensional. This is more faithful to his depiction in the original Japanese version. This is probably because the second rematch with him, where Culex DOES become three-dimensional and boasts that he now also possesses their 3D power, wouldn't make much sense otherwise. The Thought Peek rewrites even extend to Shout-Out lines: In the original Japanese script, the Jester's Thought Peek quote was a direct quotation from Kaitou Saint Tail, namely the titular character's By the Power of Grayskull! declaration where she requests forgiveness from God for using "no gimmick or trick" (a Japanese phrase used as the equivalent of Nothing Up My Sleeve). The original version of the Super Mario RPG localization had handled it by simply making it a generic "I've failed my King," removing both the reference and its religious elements. The remake's English script retranslates it as "Note that I've nothing up my sleeve," which, while still not maintaining the explicit reference, more appropriately invokes the original context of the quote.note Let alone the religious invocation and the fact that Saint Tail would be even more obscure to an English-speaking Mario player in 2023, a direct, recognizable reference would have likely been impossible anyway, since the series has such inconsistent localization history that the aforementioned line has no less than three completely different official translations. In addition, the Crook's Thought Peek is "Must...not...run away!" a nod to Shinji's "I mustn't run away" which was the Crook's Thought Peek in the original Japanese version. In the original English version it was simply "You can't run away! Ha!". Likewise, the Thought Peeks of both Valentinanote "He's a small man who puts on a big front." and Hippoponote "Trust me—if I didn't have to ride this thing, I wouldn't." have their Neon Genesis Evangelion references restored as well. The Pulsar's Thought Peek is now "By the stars, you'll regret hitting me!" which is a nod to Sailor Moon's "In the Name of the Moon, I'll punish you!" and the Thought Peek in the original which was "Hit me and you will be punished when I go up in smoke!" whereas the original English version just had it saying "I'm a mini-Pulsar". Terrapin's purchasable Thought Peek is "'Sup! I'm a Terrapin! I wish my gramps could see me now!" which is a nod to Goku's "Ossu! Ora Goku!"/"Hey, it's me, Goku!" greeting at the end of the original Dragon Ball (adopted as his catchphrase throughout the series) and Goku's dead grandfather who Goku thinks turned into a Dragon Ball and the Terrapin's unused Though Peek quote in the original which was "Yo, I'm Nokohei! Are you watching, Grandpa?!" while in the original English version, the unused quote was "Yo! What's going on?" Stinger's Thought Peek is "The buzzer is about to sound for you!" which is a reference to the original Japanese Thought Peek which was "My beat keeps the rhythm!" which was a reference to "The beat of my blood keeps the rhythm!" a line spoken by Jonathan Joestar. In the original game, the English Psychopath entry was instead shortened to "Strike the pose!", a reference to the Madonna song Vogue. Hammer Bro's purchasable Thought Peek is "Think you know what my hammer can do? Think again, pal!" which is a nod to the original Japanese Thought Peek which was "My hammer tonight is a little bit different, turtle-turtle." which was a reference to one of Zenigata's Character Catchphrase “My Zantetsuken tonight is a little bit different." Boomer's Thought Peek is "The time for words is past." which is a reference to the original Japanese Thought Peek of "There is nothing more to be said." which is a reference to Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory, specifically during a battle between Anavel Gato and Kou Uraki. | |

Lost in Translation | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_b7920c43 | comment |
Lost in Translation: Many examples. Note that most of these are fixed in the remake. During the second battle with Belome, if Princess Toadstool is active in your party and Belome eats her, he'll say, "Mmm, tastes peachy..." Super Mario RPG was the last Mario game to use her Dub Name Change; Super Mario 64, released that same year in North America, phased it out in favor of the modern Peach. Belome's name is a pun on "Bero", tongue. Another punny name lost is Chomp Chomp's original name is Wan Tsu (read: Japanese pronunciation of "one two"). The joke is that Chomps were originally called "Wan Wan", which is an onomatopoeia for a dog's bark. The Magikoopa you fight in Bowser's Keep may be Bowser's right hand, Kamek. In the original Japanese, casting the Psychopath spell on this enemy (who is here called "Kamezard") reveals the thought "Is that... 'that' child?". This may refer to Mario, who was a baby when Kamek first encountered him in Yoshi's Island. Bowser's ultimate unique armor—the... Heal Shell? That doesn't suit him at all, unlike the other four characters. It's probably meant to be the Heel Shell, as in the lovable baddie from Professional Wrestling. note Pro wrestling was surprisingly Big in Japan, and yes, "hiiru shell" (the item) and "hiiru wrestler" (the baddie) are both spelled ヒール. The Shy Guys that hold the chandeliers together on the second visit to Bowser's Keep are named Chandeli-ho in a dialogue box. This is in fact a portmanteau of "chandelier" and "Heiho", the Japanese name for Shy Guys.note Interestingly, unused data suggesting that one was originally intended to be a target in battle like Kinklink gives it the more localized name of "Hangin' Shy". In the remake, it's changed to "Shyndelier". "NokNok Shell", Nokonoko being the Japanese name for Koopa Troopas. Apparently, Ted Woolsey didn't get the memo. The translations for a few of the enemy spell names are weird, in particular the "Drain series". The original names of Drain, Mega Drain, and Drain Beam are Fireball, Light Saber and Geyser respectively. None of these attacks have an HP-stealing component, so it's unclear where the "drain" naming came from. The enemy known in every other Mario game as "Koopa Paratroopa" is here known as "Sky Troopa", while the flying Shy Guy known as "Beezo" in Super Mario Bros. 2 is here called "Shy Away". Exor's mouth is translated as "Neosquid", a bizarre name that doesn't line up with the Japanese text. There's no official explanation for the mistake, though it's speculated to be the result of misinterpreting a sprite.ExplanationIn order for a boss as big as Exor to work, most of its body is a static background with the attacking parts being sprites, making it possible that the mouth was seen separately from the rest of the boss and assumed to be a squid-like creature. In the Japanese version, Culex mentions that he's a two-dimensional being. He challenges Mario to a fight in order to gain understanding of the power of the third dimension. This explains why Culex looks straight out of a 2D Final Fantasy, and why he looks so out of place compared to everything else in the game. Since the English version completely ditches this, this detail gets lost. The Cricket Pie in the original version was a Senbei (a type of Japanese rice cracker) and the Cricket Jam was Yokan (A wagashi (Japanese confection) made of red bean paste, agar, and sugar.) | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_b8ecfe56 | comment |
Storm of Blades: Three of the most powerful enemy magic attacks are "Sword Rain", "Spear Rain" and "Arrow Rain", all of which are unique to the final boss fight against Smithy. During the first stage of the fight Smithy can summon lackeys that know "Sword Rain", while during the second phase of the fight Smithy can use all three attacks, but only when he morphs his head into the "Magic Head" form. | |

Boss-Altering Consequence | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_b915b765 | comment |
Boss-Altering Consequence: If you use a Fire attack against Croco, it will set his tail on fire, and he'll waste a turn trying to put it out. Using Thunderbolt against Mack will stun him for a turn. During the boss fight against Jonathan Jones, if the player takes out all four of his Mooks, he'll challenge Mario to a one-on-one duel, which causes the fight to become a Duel Boss. Exor lacks the Contractual Boss Immunity to the Geno Whirl's One-Hit Kill effect, meaning that after you take out its eyes, and know the timing for Geno Whirl, you can take it out instantly. | |

There's a normally inaccessible pipe and item box in Kero Sewers to an area that you normally couldn't go to until over halfway through the game... unless you maneuver enemies into a specific position, fight with them and Run Away, which causes them to become solid objects and let you go jumping on their head. There is Developer's Foresight, however, and the item box contains a single Flower instead of the Cricket Jam you'd normally get, and a Broken Bridge prevents you from going anywhere in Land's End (and an enemy even has special dialogue if you try this). Trying to fight the enemy will allow him to slaughter you. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_b9918c48 | comment |
Nobody Here but Us Statues: Mario gets disguised in this manner (with a full-body gold paint job) to infiltrate Nimbus Castle. It works perfectly, except that there's a minigame involved: an irritated Dodo marches in and takes out his frustration on the statues, and you have to jump his beak. Jump too early, or get hit by the beak, and he catches you. If you succeed, you get a special item (the Feather), but still drop your disguise after a couple of guards take out their frustration on you with spears. | |

Boss Bonanza | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_bc0f0e23 | comment |
Boss Bonanza: Barrel Volcano ends with Czar Dragon, which decomposes into Zombone for a second phase, followed by a short hallway before fighting the Axem Rangers, which themselves are two forms (first the five Axem Rangers, then the head of their Blade battleship). Bowser's Keep has three nearly consecutive bosses: a Magikoopa, Boomer, and Exor. There's also a chance to fight a Boss in Mook Clothing, Chester, right before the Magikoopa. The Gate/Factory that comprises Smithy's lair. Just getting in requires that you defeat Count Down, followed by Domino and Cloaker, a Dual Sequential Boss (whose second stage is another Dual Boss). Inside the Factory proper, Mario has to fight through four levels of factory management, the first three of which have bodyguards while the Factory Chief has his own autonomous secret weapon. Smithy, a two-phase fight, comes after all of these. Duplicates of many of the previous bosses now appear as regular mooks throughout the Gate area, and most of them aren't any weaker than they were in their initial appearance, though theoretically Mario and friends should be much more powerful by now. | |

Culex’s design wasn’t updated to a 3D model, and still uses his sprite from the original. This strengthens the contrast between him and everything else in the game. That is... unless you unlock the rematch against Culex, in which he transforms into a full 3D model, which gives him a MASSIVE boost in strength, effectively making Culex the hardest of the boss rematches in the remake. In other words, this makes Culex the superboss of the superbosses. | |

Shout-Out | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
The Thought Peek rewrites even extend to Shout-Out lines: In the original Japanese script, the Jester's Thought Peek quote was a direct quotation from Kaitou Saint Tail, namely the titular character's By the Power of Grayskull! declaration where she requests forgiveness from God for using "no gimmick or trick" (a Japanese phrase used as the equivalent of Nothing Up My Sleeve). The original version of the Super Mario RPG localization had handled it by simply making it a generic "I've failed my King," removing both the reference and its religious elements. The remake's English script retranslates it as "Note that I've nothing up my sleeve," which, while still not maintaining the explicit reference, more appropriately invokes the original context of the quote.note Let alone the religious invocation and the fact that Saint Tail would be even more obscure to an English-speaking Mario player in 2023, a direct, recognizable reference would have likely been impossible anyway, since the series has such inconsistent localization history that the aforementioned line has no less than three completely different official translations. In addition, the Crook's Thought Peek is "Must...not...run away!" a nod to Shinji's "I mustn't run away" which was the Crook's Thought Peek in the original Japanese version. In the original English version it was simply "You can't run away! Ha!". Likewise, the Thought Peeks of both Valentinanote "He's a small man who puts on a big front." and Hippoponote "Trust me—if I didn't have to ride this thing, I wouldn't." have their Neon Genesis Evangelion references restored as well. The Pulsar's Thought Peek is now "By the stars, you'll regret hitting me!" which is a nod to Sailor Moon's "In the Name of the Moon, I'll punish you!" and the Thought Peek in the original which was "Hit me and you will be punished when I go up in smoke!" whereas the original English version just had it saying "I'm a mini-Pulsar". Terrapin's purchasable Thought Peek is "'Sup! I'm a Terrapin! I wish my gramps could see me now!" which is a nod to Goku's "Ossu! Ora Goku!"/"Hey, it's me, Goku!" greeting at the end of the original Dragon Ball (adopted as his catchphrase throughout the series) and Goku's dead grandfather who Goku thinks turned into a Dragon Ball and the Terrapin's unused Though Peek quote in the original which was "Yo, I'm Nokohei! Are you watching, Grandpa?!" while in the original English version, the unused quote was "Yo! What's going on?" Stinger's Thought Peek is "The buzzer is about to sound for you!" which is a reference to the original Japanese Thought Peek which was "My beat keeps the rhythm!" which was a reference to "The beat of my blood keeps the rhythm!" a line spoken by Jonathan Joestar. In the original game, the English Psychopath entry was instead shortened to "Strike the pose!", a reference to the Madonna song Vogue. Hammer Bro's purchasable Thought Peek is "Think you know what my hammer can do? Think again, pal!" which is a nod to the original Japanese Thought Peek which was "My hammer tonight is a little bit different, turtle-turtle." which was a reference to one of Zenigata's Character Catchphrase “My Zantetsuken tonight is a little bit different." Boomer's Thought Peek is "The time for words is past." which is a reference to the original Japanese Thought Peek of "There is nothing more to be said." which is a reference to Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory, specifically during a battle between Anavel Gato and Kou Uraki. | |

In the original game, Gaz's attack on Mario when playing with the Geno Doll was implied to be a Rocket Punch, but it's been changed to a barrage of pellets now. This makes sense when you bring Geno to see Gaz and Gaz gives him the Finger Shot, Geno's weapon that he forgot to take with him. | |

The Mystery Egg's use. You equip Toadstool with the B'tub Ring, an item in Marrymore's store, and use the Mystery Egg on her turn ten times. On the tenth time, it will turn into the Lamb's Lure, which calls upon a sheep to remove an enemy from the fight. Use it another 48 times, and it will turn into the Sheep Attack, an item that turns most non-boss enemies into sheep and ends the battle. The remake makes this more obvious, as the B'tub Ring was re-localized to the Nuture Ring and the Mystery Egg's Flavor Text has a hint: | |

Developer's Foresight | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_d24ed873 | comment |
Developer's Foresight: The Hammer Bros., Terrapins and Bowser within the prologue fight all have Psychopath quotes should you hack the game to allow access to that move before you obtain Mallow. If you stand atop the head of the small Mushroom Girl located in the Mushroom Kingdom map that is running in a square-circle, after a few seconds pass, Mario will automatically get off, shake with dizziness and fall face-down to the ground. And then get up and shake his head to get rid of the remaining dizziness. When you confront Mack, two Shysters try to jump on Mario's head and he deflects them, knocking them off the platform and so only the remaining four aid Mack in the fight. Afterward, those two survive to flee and tell Smithy what happened. If you approach the platform from the sides and thus walk past the Shysters, when Mack does his Dynamic Entry the two are knocked backwards off the platform to keep the story straight. In Kero Sewers, there's a pipe that leads to the late-game area Land's End and a chest containing Cricket Jam, a sidequest item for Frogfucius. While the pipe is on a platform too high to jump to, it's possible to reach it by getting into a fight with one of the Boos in the area and fleeing from it; enemies have a form of Mercy Invincibility when fled where they won't trigger a fight when touched for a few seconds, and the player can thus use the Boo as a stepping stone to get up to the pipe. The chest contains a Flower instead (it'll still contain the Cricket Jam when you come back later), and if you go down the pipe into Land's End, the exit is on low ground where the ledge above is too high to jump, and the Shy Away nearby will warn you to turn back because there's no way out from here. If the mushroom people at Rose Town get frozen by an arrow while facing the exit, they'll remark on Geno passing through. Many of the fallen wishing stars on Star Hill contain wishes from characters, and two such wishes (Frogfucius wishing for Cricket Jam, and Mallow's parents wishing for their son to come home) will be fulfilled during the game. If you revisit Star Hill after such events, their wishing stars will say something different. In Booster Pass, you can find an Apprentice Snifit who hopes that if he defeats Mario, he'll be promoted to Snifit 4 in Booster's Tower. With his pitiful stats you have to go out of your way to lose to him, but if you do he runs off happy at his victory, and the next Apprentice you find here says he wants to be Snifit 5. This proceeds up to a fifth Apprentice aspiring to be Snifit 8. If you ascend to the top of Booster's Tower you can find the victorious numbered Apprentices basking in the pride of being made Snifits, and the fifth one grumbling that Booster only wants seven Snifits so he's off to Grate Guy's Casino. The four Apprentices all also have unique dialogue if you talk to them. Smithy's second form's default head (before he reforges it into a tank, a mage, a chest, or a welder's mask) has an attack animation despite said default head not having any attacks. While this would normally be considered Dummied Out content, if you'd notice that said second form's defeat animation involves the head playing its attack animation over and over again, you'd realize the developers accounted for the very unlikely event of you defeating Smithy before he even has a chance to reforge his head into a different form. | |

Easy Levels, Hard Bosses | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_d4fa75fc | comment |
Easy Levels, Hard Bosses: For most of the game, normal battles don't pose too much of a threat; a Timed Hit from a normal attack can take out many of them in one blow, Mallow has Thunderbolt to handle groups of enemies in the early-game, and in return most of them don't hit that hard outside of the occasional Elite Mook. It's also possible to skip fights entirely by just avoiding enemies on the field. Bosses are another story: they tend to have a lot of HP, attacks that inflict heavy damage, and can inflict debilitating status ailments, perhaps on the entire party. Many of them also have flunkies to assist them and can respawn them infinitely. This is in addition to almost every boss having a unique gimmick that the player won't be prepared for unless they know it's coming - Bowyer can lock your commands, Bundt needs its regenerating candles blown out, Johnny Jones can force Mario into a Duel Boss battle, Belome can clone party members, etc. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: Breezy Mode is now available for inexperienced players which allows the player to hold more items, has enemies that are weaker, and makes carrying out Timed Hits easier. The game now autosaves when you move into a new area. Saving the old-fashioned way is still possible, however. The game now adds a '!' marker to indicate the perfect timing for a Timed Hit until you are familiar with it, and a perfectly timed regular attack now hits all opponents. While outside of battles, pressing X or Y will pull up shortcuts to use items or magic. Duplicates of items no longer occupy their own slot in your inventory and are now neatly stacked together in one slot. This benefits Yoshi Cookies in particular due to them having a carrying capacity of 20 (double the standard item cap), making it much easier to justify carrying them around and trying them on lots of enemies. If you reach the cap on an item, it'll be sent to the box in Mario's house which you can come back later for. Attacks now let you know if a monster resists it or is weak to it. This includes Yoshi Cookies, making it clearer as to whether an attempt to use one failed from immunity or just random chance. The Lucky minigame is no longer randomized; you can now reliably track it by sight rather than having to make a blind pick. The remake adds a tag to enemies' magic attacks saying that they can't be blocked, something the original game wasn't clear about when teaching you about timed hits. Moreover, magic as a whole is no longer inherently unblockable; many spells have been given guard windows with retimed animations to match, while "Can't block!" is reserved for party-wide magic and non-damaging status moves. Fast traveling is now possible from the map in the pause menu. Because of this, the springs that launched you into the World Map have been mostly removed due to redundancy. You can also fast travel to specific zones on the map as well, such as being able to go directly to Belome Temple without needing to go through Land's End or Monstro Town. Certain large areas (namely the Forest Maze, Pipe Vault, Booster Tower, Sunken Ship, Land's End, Bowser's Keep, and Weapon World) that are filled with enemies but have a reason to backtrack through them will be given multiple entry points from the world map as you progress. Party members can now be swapped during battle. On top of that, if both of Mario's active companions get knocked out, the ones on stand-by will automatically tag out with them so long as they're not unconscious, averting Lazy Backup. If a party member is incapacitated from the sleep or mushroom status, you have the option to swap them out for another party member that is able to fight and not waste a turn. Likewise, KO'd party members can be swapped out. In the original game, it was rather easy to reach the coin cap of 999, thus making most coins wasted in the long run unless you specifically avoided the coin block chests. The remake turns the cap into a four figure instead of a three figure, meaning reaching the cap is a lot harder and extra coins won't end up going to waste. You can get the Signal Ring as soon as you reach the Mushroom Kingdom, allowing you to hunt for the invisible treasure boxes right at the start so you don't miss any. The original game had the ring in Nimbus Land, which you didn't visit until the last third of the game where you likely passed by many invisible treasure boxes throughout your journey. The Signal Ring will alert you of an invisible treasure box with in-game text so you don't forget. The hidden treasure box in the Mushroom Kingdom's castle can now be accessed at any time rather than just when you first enter it due to Toads wandering nearby that you can jump on. Mallow already knows Thought Peek when he joins Mario, allowing you to examine monsters from the get-go. In addition, Thought Peek now lists a monster's weaknesses. The Mushroom Derby now supplies visual cues. Originally, the Forest Maze's save block was set right before the maze itself, which could annoy players that were defeated by Bowyer and had to navigate the maze full of enemies again. The remake moves the save block to right before the Bowyer fight so that you can immediately fight him again if you lose and not have to go through the maze again. In the original game's Forest Maze, on the second screen of the maze proper, Geno would be just barely offscreen at the bottom right and leave the screen before you could see him, forcing you to make a process of elimination guess of the ways you know he didn't go, which could leave younger players or people who got distracted confused about which way he went. In the remake, not only does the screen show Geno the entire way through, he starts much farther back and even trips and takes a few seconds before walking through, making a gag out of it while also clearly signposting that you need to follow him specifically. The Goomba-Thump mini-game was rather infamous for its reward system, where the score needed for rewards would jump to your score+2, making it extremely difficult to achieve all rewards unless you meticulously invoke Do Well, But Not Perfect to minimize the increase in score. In the remake, the score needed to achieve rewards will always be the previous high score+2, going from 20 to 22 to 24 to 26 to 28 and finally to 30, making it much easier to achieve all rewards. The Monster List Agent in Booster Pass will fill in an incomplete entry's Thought Peek for three Frog Coins each in case you weren't able to do so such as for bosses and their minions, including the ones before Mallow joined you as a starter gift. Once you load the game on an Endgame+, the completely missing entries are partially added so the Monster List Agent can update them. Booster's Monster List entry is automatically added if you're able to avoid being detected during the curtain minigame at Booster Tower, meaning you don't have to choose between obtaining Booster's Charm or intentionally failing the minigame so you can complete your Monster List. A similar thing happens to Cloaker and Domino later regarding their Power Up Mount Bad Adder/Mad Adder which has the opposing entry added if you fought the other one. Originally, the Feather accessory could be missed permanently if you failed to avoid Dodo's pecking at the Mario "statue" and were forced to fight him. The remake has the Toad in Moleville selling a Feather for 250 coins if you missed out on the one in Nimbus Land. If you did get the first Feather anyway, you can still buy the second one. The other missable accessory, Booster's Charm, will be given out in the postgame after winning Booster's rematch if the curtain minigame was failed. In the hall of the six trials in Bowser's Keep, if an action or battle course is too much to handle, you have the option of giving up and returning to the doors so you can try a different path. If you lose a boss rematch, the boss will skip its introductory dialogue and ask you straight out if you want to fight the next time you talk to them. | |

Red Herring | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_dbca2c99 | comment |
Red Herring: The expanded utility of Mallow's Thought Peek reveals a few odd enemy weaknesses early in the game that can never be exploited. For example, Bundt is listed as being vulnerable to mute, but mute can only be inflicted with Peach's Mute magic, and Bundt happens to be the last boss fought before she joins the party (Bundt is refought in the postgame, but it lacks this weakness there). | |

Adaptation Name Change | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_dc057cf3 | comment |
Adaptation Name Change: The original SNES game was released when Princess Peach was still being dubbed as "Princess Toadstool" in Americanote other than in Yoshi's Safari. The Switch remake has her going by her modern (and original Japanese) name "Princess Peach" for this take on the tale. The remake has a number of name changes to bring them closer in line with the original Japanese script and modern localization standards: Yaridovich is now named Speardovich, Mack the Knife is now Claymorton, the Goomba leader is Goomhilde, the Magikoopa leader is now named Wizakoopa, the Ding-A-Lings that fight alongside Count Down are now named Ring-A-Dings and Smithy's Mask Head is now called Casket Head. Frogfucius is known as the "Frog Sage" while Hinopio, the Toad who ran his business in the volcano, is now Cinder Toad. The name of Mallow's ability "Psychopath" is now "Thought Peek" while Bowser Crush is now Mechakoopa Stomp along with the Troopa Shell now being called the Paratroopa Shell. The Heal Shell is now the Heel Shell while the Koopa Troop is now Bowser's Minions. Mokura is now Gassox while Mukumukus are now Throphers, with their cookies now being Thropher Cookies. The translation error that resulted in Exor's mouth somehow getting named "Neosquid" in the original game's English version has been fixed. Now, Exor's mouth is referred to as... Mouth. Peach's Polka and Nautica dresses are now Lovely and Sailor Dresses. The Rare Scarf and Scrooge Ring are now Defense Scarf and Flower Ring. The frog-themed drinks have been renamed from Froggie Drink (which is still frog-themed), Elixir, Megalixir and Kerokero Cola to Tadpola Cola, Frogleg Cola, Finless Cola and Croaka Cola. Sparkies, Fireballs and Pyrospheres are now Lava Bubbles, Lava Blubbles and Lava Babbles. The Big Boo is Boo and Lil' Boo is now High Boo, though Boo in Dr. Topper's group still keeps his name. Fire Orb, Super Flame and Ultra Flame are now Fireball, Super Fireball and Ultra Fireball. Drain and Mega Drain are now Hot Shot and Fire Saber, due to the fact that they were fire spells and didn't drain anything. When the Speardovich copies use Multiplier, the resulting monsters are now called Jabits instead of Drill Bits. The Jester's Full House and Wild Card attacks are now Card Toss and Card Rain. | |

Armored But Frail: Orb Users in Boosters Tower have 80 defense which is huge at the point you fight them at. They only have a measly 8 HP, which means that any attacks that can get past their defense will one-shot them. Dry Bones and their Underground Monkey variant Vomers die if they take any damage... but they are also completely immune to physical damage, requiring magic attacks to take down. | |

Make a Wish: The Star Road can grant wishes, and you even get to visit the place where they fall before being granted; Mario can read them, and Mallow gets angry if you read his wish. The Star Pieces are required to restore the proper cycle of wishes, and it is vital to do so, as there is more to wishes than just the wisher's personal life; Mario's own successes are often aided by the many people wishing for him to do so. | |

Art Evolution | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_e43c66bd | comment |
Art Evolution: The game's graphics have been redone from the ground up, sporting various touch-ups that weren't possible with the SNES original. Camera angles in cutscenes are dynamic instead of being locked to an isometric view, animations are smoother with more tweaking between keyframes, the game has real 3D models instead of Digitized Sprites, the overworld now features graphics beyond the playable area instead of just a voidnote For example, the Mushroom Kingdom is depicted on top of a hill and prominent lighting is used in places where the original didn't have it (such as the rays of sunlight in Peach's throne room now casting reflections on the marble floor, or bright, colorful light sources in the scene where Mario gets washed down an underground river). Additionally, the game's art style finds a middle ground between past and present, taking the look of most 21st century Mario media and refitting it for the SNES game's stout, toylike designs. This includes the Beezosnote Shy Aways as the original game called them, who now match the modern Shy Guy design, as well as the Snifits and the Snifsters, who now match the modern color designs of Blue and Black Shy Guys. Mario has new animations for running and swimming. In the original, Mario’s running animation looked more like he was power walking and he didn’t actually have a proper swimming animation. While much of the game's visual style remains in place, many series regulars have seen refinements to their designs to bring them closer to modern depictions, such as Dry Bones becoming less angular and gaining gloves and shoes, Birdo gaining her diamond ring she's had since Mario Golf Toadstool Tour, and Paratroopas gaining shoes and a somewhat more anthropomorphic frame. Culex 3D is this in spades, going from a limited 2D pixel sprite to a full modern 3D model which looks just like his concept art◊. And most prominent is Princess Peach (and to a lesser extent Bowser) using her modern appearance, swapping out her old dress with the one she's worn since the Gamecube Era. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_e6630c8b | comment |
Gameplay and Story Integration: In the original game, Gaz's attack on Mario when playing with the Geno Doll was implied to be a Rocket Punch, but it's been changed to a barrage of pellets now. This makes sense when you bring Geno to see Gaz and Gaz gives him the Finger Shot, Geno's weapon that he forgot to take with him. At the Kero Sewers warp pipe for the first time, Mallow goes on ahead and enters the pipe without Mario. If Mario were to leave the area without entering the pipe, Mallow immediately exits the pipe and tells Mario that he will go anywhere Mario is going. Even before entering the pipe, Mallow is still part of Mario's party, explaining why he will follow him. Bowser does something similar in Marrymore if Mario decides to leave the church instead of help Bowser break down the door As Bowser's former henchmen, Gu Goombas (Pro Goombas in the remake), Terra Cottas, and Malakoopas will get confused and hit themselves due to Bowser's presence. If Bowser is in the active party, they will flee immediately rather than fight their former boss. During the rematch against the Bundt and Tortes, the two Tortes are extremely sleepy from having worked all day and night on the cake. The two are vulnerable to being put to sleep where they will spend several turns doing so if inflicted with sleep from Peach's Sleepy Time or being hit by a Sleep Bomb. | |

The Maze: The Forest Maze, true to its name, includes a maze-like section where Mario has to choose the right path to proceed. One of the Sunken Ship puzzle rooms is a three-dimensional maze, where Mario has to blindly platform through a box structure to reach a rare item and a clue to a word puzzle. Land's End features a maze of quicksand pits in its desert section. The correct pit is signified by the Shogun ant hiding in it, which has to be fought each time to progress. | |

Exor's name is likely based on "Excalibur", seeing as he's a sword that gets embedded in a big stone object. | |

Crossover | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_eb7c34cf | comment |
This is the only Mario RPG that features some sort of Crossover with a non-Nintendo franchise, with superboss Culex being a Final Fantasy reference, even if not directly alluding to anyone specific in the franchise, though his design and characterization are also somewhat reminiscent of Kefka from Final Fantasy VI and Golbez from Final Fantasy IV respectively. The iconic crystals from the series are also present in the battle, and are fought against like in Final Fantasy V. Finally, the classic Final Fantasy victory fanfare is used for his battle instead of the usual victory music. | |

Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_ed68bcc9 | comment |
Dwindling Party: After getting launched out into nowhere by the violent impact of Exor's arrival, Bowser gathers some of his remaining troops into a small army to fight back against the Smithy Gang and find a way back into his castle. The effort ends terribly in vain as all of his troops end up deserting him due to the Smithy Gang being too strong and unfamiliar for them. | |

Eyelid Pull Taunt: One of the toad children in the Mushroom Kingdom wants to marry Mario and tells him that she will do an "akanbe" (the taunt of pulling down one eyelid and sticking out your tongue) to Bowser in the Japanese version of the game; in English, it's changed to her asking Mario to wait a few years so she can grow into her mother's wedding dress (in the SNES version) or to become Mario's sidekick (in the Switch remake). Strangely, both games preserve the child's reaction if Bowser is in your party (her shouting a taunting sound and running inside a nearby house), which seems to make no sense in the translated script. | |

Early-Bird Cameo: Booster's birdcage contains a miniature version of Dodo, long before he appears during Nimbus Land's story. After Yaridovich tries to run away with the fifth Star Piece, he grumbles that Blade is taking too long to pick him up. You don't find out Blade is the Axem Rangers' battleship until the fight with them. A friendly fan-like creature in Monstro Town can be interacted with before the party reaches the next location where you encounter it as an enemy. | |

Boss Remix | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_f1577797 | comment |
Boss Remix: The "Armed Boss" theme, played when fighting against Smithy's goons, is a remix of the background music played in a town troubled by one of them. Likewise, the first battle theme of Smithy is an industrial remix of the theme. Inverted by the music for Bowser's Keep, which is a slower and calmer remix of Bowser's boss theme from Super Mario Bros. 3. After that, the theme is remixed again for Bowser's boss battle in this game. | |

Chain of Deals | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_f2159a54 | comment |
Chain of Deals: One can be gone through in Moleville: buy a set of Fireworks for 500 coins, trade them with another mole for a Shiny Stone, trade that in the item shop for a Carbo Cookie, and finally give it to a mole girl sitting on a bucket, letting you enter the bucket for a trip through the Midas River course where all your earnings are kept instead of being given to the Toad that normally runs it (repeat the procedure and the girl will instead give you a frog coin, with the reward then alternating every other time). The chain can be repeated afterwards. Interestingly, the earlier items in the chain are more valuable in some ways, as the Shiny Stone is the key to the superboss's door and the Fireworks add extra flair to the ending sequence depending on how many you purchase over the course of the game. | |

Wake-Up Call Boss | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_f4a0408f | comment |
Wake-Up Call Boss: If you were confident enough to defeat Smithy and Culex and think you can walk to the post-game boss matches without a hitch, Belome will serve as a rude awakening for those who are unprepared. His health is a whole lot higher with a lot of defense, meaning that he's already a Damage-Sponge Boss that's going to take out. Additionally, every time he eats a character, Belome himself is invulnerable to damage until that barrier is defeated. If that character happens to be Peach, she can even heal him as well. Additionally, he'll spam Light Bubble and Aurora Flash, prolonging the battle by putting everyone to sleep. If he happens to run out of FP, he'll spam Lulla-Bye instead, meaning his sleep shenanigans won't be put into an end. The following battles with the possible exception of Jinx are a lot more difficult - requiring far more unorthodox strategies and perfect timing to avoid your entire party getting wiped out, culminating with a showdown against 3D Culex. | |

Disc-One Final Dungeon: Mario goes straight to Bowser's Keep to save Princess Toadstool, only for the real villain's living base of operations to crash through the castle, flinging him, Toadstool, and Bowser away.

Suspiciously Similar Substitute | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_f5a3e496 | comment |
Suspiciously Similar Substitute: The Koopa Troopas in this game are all replaced with soldiers called Terrapins (never mind that Koopa Troopas have already been shown to walk on two legs at this point). The Sky Troopas managed to stay, though. Even the cooks in Marrymore are Terrapins, as well. This is all due to the game's translation—their Japanese name is "Nokohei", "hei" being the Japanese word for Soldier and "Noko" being half of their Japanese namenote Their full Japanese name is "Noko Noko".. With this regard, their Japanese name could more properly be translated into English as "Koopa Soldier". When these same enemies returned in Paper Mario, they were given the much more appropriate name of "Koopatrol", preserving the portmanteau in the original Japanese. | |

Stone Wall | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_f62cc38a | comment |
Stone Wall: The Lazy Shell armor will turn anyone into this when it's equipped, raising their defense and magic defense through the roof but at a severe cost to their offensive power. Stick it on the Princess and your party is effectively unbeatable unless your opponent has a One-Hit KO move or you run out of Flower Points. The Rare Scarf is an accessory that further boosts both defense stats; pairing both the Shell and the Scarf is useful against Culex and Jinx, who have incredibly damaging attacks. The Safety Ring protects from One-Hit KO moves, Status Effects, and certain elemental attacks. Using it in conjunction with the Lazy Shell will render a character Nigh-Invulnerable as long as you have a lot of syrups. | |

Hit Points | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_f6722211 | comment |
Bundt has no Hit Points. Use Psychopath on it and its HP reading will come up zero. Its health is only dictated by the number of lit candles on its head, each candle getting snuffed whenever you land a hit. One relights every time Bundt has his turn, so one must continually pelt Bundt with attacks nonstop to ensure the first phase of this battle ends quickly. The second phase gives the boss back a set amount of HP. | |

Most of the enemy designs are pretty weird and look quite out of place in comparison with the staple Mario enemies. Instead of the quadrupedal turtle-like Spinies, for example, Lakitu drops the Spikey, a bipedal spike ball with arms and a shadowed face with glowing eyes. | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential: When you recover a Toad's wallet from Croco, you can sell it for money. You shouldn't, because he rewards you with a much-harder-to-obtain Frog Coin if you return it. If you help the guy out in Rose Town by opening his house, you can steal from the chests inside. When he enters, he'll ask if they're okay. If you left them alone—okay, great, you get some directions in the Maze and coins from the chests. If you didn't, they contained two Flowers which are more valuable and harder to come by than coins. The Toad will still give you directions if you apologize to him for stealing his treasure. | |

Distressed Dude: The first time you cross the Mushroom Way, you can save Toad from several enemies, the last of which is the Hammer Bros. mini-boss. It isn't actually required surprisingly enough, though definitely recommended since Toad gives you good rewards each time you save him. After Mack and his Shysters attack the Mushroom Kingdom, you have the option of saving the Toads from the Shysters, with the exception of the Chancellor, whom you have to save in order to progress. | |

Sequence Breaking | |
Super Mario RPG (Video Game) / int_fb111d49 | comment |
Sequence Breaking: You can skip the first major boss by making a very precise jump. The game continues on as normal, but the Star Piece option never shows up in the menu. There's a normally inaccessible pipe and item box in Kero Sewers to an area that you normally couldn't go to until over halfway through the game... unless you maneuver enemies into a specific position, fight with them and Run Away, which causes them to become solid objects and let you go jumping on their head. There is Developer's Foresight, however, and the item box contains a single Flower instead of the Cricket Jam you'd normally get, and a Broken Bridge prevents you from going anywhere in Land's End (and an enemy even has special dialogue if you try this). Trying to fight the enemy will allow him to slaughter you. | |
