Super Mario RPG Easy Mode SNES music

Nintendo has revealed even more details about what’s new in the Switch remake of Super Mario RPG, including an Easy Mode and SNES music option. This comes from the newly-opened Japanese website.

For those who are more interested in the story and aren’t as interested in battles (or a tough experience), they’ll be able to select Easy Mode – rather than the Normal Mode. You can switch between the two modes at any time.

Three upcoming, high-profile Switch games have now received demos – specifically Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince, Star Ocean: The Second Story R, and Silent Hope.

Square Enix says that for Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince, players will be able to transfer the monsters in their main party and reserves into the full game. The same holds true for the Star Ocean demo, which lets players start their adventure and experience the opening hours of the game. Finally, for Silent Hope, the entire first level of the Abyss is included.
