Super Mario RPG Launches on Wii U Today
One of the best RPG games ever created will launch on the North America Wii U Virtual Console today for the reasonable price of $7.99. Of all the games that Nintendo has put onto the Virtual Console, this SNES classic is by far the best. My weekend has just been lost completely, and if I didn’t have an obligation to review LEGO Star Wars, I would probably play this non-stop!
Super Mario RPG was an outstanding game when it first launched, and one of the most pirated titles from any game system. While I acknowledge how illegal that is, it also shows how loved this title is, and it has been hard to get legally for many, many years.
The biggest bonus this time around – and still one of the reasons why I love the Wii U – is the ability to play it Off-TV on the gamepad, so I can enjoy it even when my wife is using the television. I can imagine that Nintendo will sell lots of copies of SUper Mario RPG this weekend.
