I'm glad for Super Mario RPG fans, but also Star Ocean 2 fans.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MEEEEEE
Ghost Scientist
(SMRPG releases on my birthday)
Ghost Scientist
I thought of Angie when I saw the SO2 remake!
Rue
YEAH happy birthday!!!!!!
Ghost Scientist
How's she feel about it? (I've never gotten to play a SO game)
Rue
Haha, she's been hooting and hollering about it nonstop. I chipped in a little for the collector's edition.
Rue
The character art is a little jarring for her, but she's been pretty thrilled regardless.
Ghost Scientist
gosh, does that mean we're gonna get fancy new high definition Motoi Sakuraba tunes...
Rue
Oh yeah huh, I wonder if this means fresh OST remakes or what.
Rue
I'm also very curious about...
Rue
Ghost Scientist
as soon as they mentioned the Sonic Mania team, my interest was piqued!
Ghost Scientist
I actually thought of you when I saw that one, too, hahaha
Rue
Yeah! Like, I'm bummed they're not working on a new Sonic game, but I'm glad they get to stretch and work on something of their own. The gameplay looks real solid here.
Rue
The style also feels reminiscent of like, old Sega games or even earlier Treasure games.
Rue
Pikmin 4 also looks good!!
Rue
I saw they re-released (ported) Pikmin 1 & 2 also, which I would like to get and play but also ooough my wallet
Ghost Scientist
y-yeah. someday, Pikmin. someday....
Ghost Scientist
love those environments in Pikmin 4. running around a house and yard in miniature.
Rue
Oh! Also!
Rue
Evidently the JP direct featured a spiritual successor to the Goemon games??
Rue
Some folks are saying it features a number of the former devs, though I don't have a source on that.
Ghost Scientist
oh. goofy anachronistic Japan featuring historical figures and giant robot battles. yeah that'd do it.
Joe 🦇
Why do they keep depriving us Westerners of Goemon games...
The Raƶe
Give us Goemon you cowards.

Also, Super Mario RPG was my very first RPG. I am ecstatic that a remake is coming out soon.
The Raƶe
Also, Peach is finally getting another solo game‽ HELL YEAH!

And Super Mario Wonder looks… well, wondrous.
Joe 🦇
Us Mario fans are eating gooood
Rue
Ye!! I'm excited for Wonder. It's so refreshing seeing a 2D Mario trying new things after the slew of New Super Mario Bros games back when.
Rue
(Which, they're perfectly serviceable games, don't get me wrong - but they felt so. Safe?? Stale?? Sterile??)
The Raƶe
Yeah, "safe" would be a good word for them. There were some new things that were tried, but overall, they didn't want to change too much about the formula that was laid out from the DS game… well, barring what I've read about NSMB2, I guess.
