Posted on 9 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Yoko Shimomura played a key role in Super Mario RPG as back in the day, she was the game’s composer. Music is one of a few reasons why the title is beloved today.
Shimomura came back for the new remake and updated the tracks for the modern era. However, players can switch to the original music if they prefer.
In a previous feature on Daion, Shimomura shared a few words about her work. She mentions feeling pressure living up to the Super Mario name while also feeling “incredibly lucky”. We also get to hear about wanting the Switch version’s music to remain faithful to the original.
