Today is the 24th anniversary of Super Mario RPG being released in North America. I didn’t really plan for this. I’ve already made a full Geno in Smash moveset and linked to the Wonder of Art thing in the post just above me. So guess I’ll just link and go through stuff.


 * An amazing video made for the 20th anniversary of the game by some Nico Nico Douga users. Really underrated.
 * You know, Rawset Forest would have really worked as a Geno and Nico Nico Dual Arrangement, considering the songs story getting popular on Nico Nico Douga. Johnny Bravo and Nico Nico still worked in its own way, but Geno and Nico Nico would have been a just as effective pairing/matchup.
 * Also, a Geno and Dr. Piccolo Dual Arrangement approaches!
 * TerminalMontage has been a public Geno supporter for many years now, and has included a Geno cameo in almost every Something About video of his. The latest one on Sonic 1 features Geno coming through a portal while fighting a silhouetted figure (1:32, 1:36, 1:45). At this rate I kinda expect a Something About Super Mario RPG video to happen at some point. Just gotta wait and see.
 * And now that I mentioned Sonic have this.
 * If anyone here hasn’t played Super Mario RPG yet and is both interested and able to do so, here’s the full official players guide for it on Archive.org. I mean, not like Nintendo’s gonna rerelease this... ever.
 * Beware The Forest’s Mushrooms is one of the most popular songs for people to remix. But there are OFFICIAL remixes of the song that exist. This one was made as part of a Yoko Shimomura music album, and I think there was another official remix of it from the Mario RPG official soundtrack release (pretty sure it was this one that many years ago people tried to claim was a lost Brawl remix), but I’ll need to double check on that one eventually.

It’s been almost a month since I finally made it to the end of the game for the first time. I haven’t touched the game since (because I don’t feel like taking the long walk out of the final Factory area back to the rest of the game), but there’s things I know I haven’t done like finding Grate Guy’s Casino, playing Beetle Mania, defeating Culex, and I never found Fat Yoshi. Apparently it’s on Yo’ster Isle, but I never saw it when I was there doing the Boshi race.

It’s probably going to be a game I continue to find out things about for years to come. In fact just now while briefly looking through stuff, I found out the players guide has a jab against Sonic related to Toadofsky.

Congratulations to Super Mario RPG for turning 24! Here’s a cake in celebration!

Wait did the cake just move?
