This is a FANTASTIC story driven game with all the best RPG elements to boot. As a lesser known title (because it was released right after the Nintendo 64 came out) it boasts hours of fun and laughter for all ages as well as a compelling story line and skill based combat. That's right, how you may ask is skill involve, timed hits!. Right now you are asking yourself (what's a timed hit) in the game combat screen timed hits are enacted when you press the A button at the correct moment to follow up your initial attack with a follow up attack to deal more damage. This not only applies to attacks but skills as well, each having their own timing which you can learn to either increase damage or increase effects such as healing, defense boosts as well as offensive buffs. This game features classic elements such as leveling, equipment, skills, turn based fighting, and much much more. Look no further if you are looking for a classic game for all ages to enjoy.

One of the best SNES games IMO. For those who are rpg newbies or love Mario games this is for you! If you've ever played any of the Paper Mario series this has the same mechanics, the grandfather to them. Price is a bit high considering it is easy to find. However if you have a SNES you should own a copy as well.

This game was released four months prior to one of Nintendo's greatest system, the N64. SMRPG wan't given a fighting chance to gain popularity among the American people. Therefore, Super Mario is hardly ever mentioned when people converse nostalgically about SNES games. An big hype was made about Donkey Kong Country's fully rendered graphics and ACM. DKC is fully deserving of such praise, but when the game that was finally released that wasn't a part of the DKC series and obtained the ACM technology, Mario's final appearance on the SNES came out with a whine. Because of such carelessness of Nintendo developers, many players do not know the Magic of Super Mario RPG. I am one of those who did not know of such a game until eight years after it's release. Sure, I heard about Super Mario World, Zelda, and Donkey Kong Country as I was growing up, but I was a victim of the N64's engaging power. Once I ordered it from eBay, I experienced the missing link; the Mario game that ended the SNES legacy and that opened the frontier to the (I must admit) awesome Nintendo 64. If you have not played SMRPG, please do not go what I went through. For your sake, buy it now. For a mere $50 a day (for one day), you can finally fulfill the duty of a player, and revive the dead game, Super Mario RPG.Read full review
I played the game and it was in great condition. It was my favorite game when I first played it and I'm glad that I have it back. Put the game in the SNES, turned it on and it went right to the preview and unlike my previous one, it didn't erase my save game.
