Super Mario RPG review

System: Switch
Release date: November 17, 2023
Developer: Square Enix / ArtePiazza
Publisher: Nintendo


As a classic of the SNES era of RPGs, a remake of Super Mario RPG was a bit of a shock reveal earlier this year. Originally a collaboration between Nintendo and Square, it was a bit of a surprise back then as well. With a complete and from the ground up remake, we see new 3D graphics, crisp menus, and a bit of extra content for a game on Switch that many would say is one of the best RPGs of its time – but what about now? Let’s take a look at how Super Mario RPG fairs in today’s standards, as spoiler free as possible.

Devil Engine Complete Edition physical

Limited Run Games is working on a physical release of Devil Engine: Complete Edition for Switch, the company announced today.

You may remember that Devil Engine technically already launched on Switch in 2019. However, it then reshipped as a new “Complete Edition” last month. A physical edition also came to Japan, though this is the first time it’ll have a boxed copy elsewhere.

Eastward Octopia release date

Today, Chucklefish and Pixpil revealed the final release date for Eastward: Octopia, the game’s upcoming DLC expansion. It’ll be ready to go on January 31, 2024.

Eastward: Octopia was previously announced during a Nintendo Direct in September. It was said to be launching during the holiday.

The latest Famitsu review scores for the week of December 6, 2023 are as follows:

Skater XL launch trailer

A new launch trailer dropped for the Switch version of Skater XL. The game, a street skateboarding experience, has now come to Nintendo’s console.

Additional details can be found in the following overview:

Super Mario RPG Monster List

New to the recently-released Super Mario RPG remake is a Monster List that tracks every single enemy in the game. When you encounter an enemy, it’s automatically added to the database. However, its entry is not complete until you successfully use Mallow’s Thought Peek spell on it. Several enemies have missable Thought Peek entries – luckily, there’s an NPC in Booster Pass hidden in a cliff who will sell you new Monster List entries in exchange for three Frog Coins.

Touch Detective 3 + The Complete Case Files

November 18: Nicalis is localizing Touch Detective 3 + The Complete Case Files for English release in the west, the company just announced. It will be available in Q1 2024.

This is the first time the game will be leaving Japan. It first came to the 3DS in 2024, followed by a Switch version in October 2022.
