Just finished this game. Kinda alright, but why was Peach called Toadstool?
>>333584892
Because youre underaged
MODS
>>333584892
Because she is Princess Toadstool

can i just say real quick this soundtrack was solid?
in particular this semi-boss track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNfqL-7PGrk&nohtml5=False
>>333584892
Princess Peach Toadstool. of the Mushroom Kingdom. You know, get it?
>>333584957
Hi Dobson.
toadstool was her localized name before mario 64
like how bowser was also frequently called "king koopa" (an equivalent of his japanese name) before that was dropped completely
>>333584892
Why is Toadstool blonde?
>>333585269

better than solid.
this is what I miss most about square doing it.
I'm playing through mario and luigi superstar and just keep muting it because the soundtrack is so awful.
>>333589734
it's literally the same person
Mario's eyes in this game creep me out.
why is everyone so crazy about geno?`sure, his strong as fuck but, his not much of a character. i liked milo more. yep

They localized her name to Toadstool for western audiences, just like with Bowser. Eventually, they transitioned it back to Peach but stuck with Bowser. Not sure why.
>>333590052
>milo
Who?
>>333590223
sorry. meant mallow.
also, bowser was bro as fuck in the game.
>>333589958
huh, so it is.
what the shit?
>>333589958
good composers can make mediocre osts, especially if they're given poor direction.
>>333590582
superstar saga isn't bad, not smrpg caliber but nothing else by her is
>>333590535
Mario & Luigi games are mostly made by the same people who worked on Super Mario RPG
That includes Yoko Shimomura
She made the soundtrack for all M&L games so far
>>333591420
>>333590582
I think Superstar Saga's OST is okay, it suffers mostly from being repetitive
>>333584892
People have last names
>>333584892
Considering Ted Woolsely translated the game, I think it's a Woolseyism.
>>333591478
>this music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vF4bqPCeH6A
it's a long ass dungeon too
>>333591478
>mostly
this. each song loops after like 15 seconds. drives me up the wall.
>>333591421
alphdream is mostly past square employees?
>>333591420
>but nothing else by her is
>>333591649
At least it was founded by people who left Square after the contract with Nintendo ended, to keep developping on Nintendo consoles
Don't know how much of it is still ex-Square employees today though, but M&L is basically their way to keep making SMRPG sequels
They even managed to give Geno a cameo appearance in M&L1
Same reason samus is canonically recognized on /v/ as being 6'4. Western interpretation. Tbf though toadstool is a more interesting name than Peach, and Samus being a fuck huge amazon is cooling than just being another kawaii girl

>I'm playing through mario and luigi superstar and just keep muting it because the soundtrack is so awful.
>>333591478
Those GBA limitations (though personally I think Superstar Saga's OST is still fine). The OSTs for the later games are really rocking, especially when they have more to work with.

Mallow was okay but his character development ended earlier than Geno's, which concluded in a high note along with the game. That in my opinion might be the reason.
>>333589734
>muting that battle music
This has to be a crime
>>333584892
>Princess Frogshit
>>333592585
Toadstool is a mushroom
>>333592656
A mushroom that probably grew in frog shit.
>>333591828
Wait wait you are saying Samus was never 6'4 and that was just western localization that changed it?
>>333593119
Yes, that's what I'm saying, it was posted in a western game magazine because they thought it was cool, it's not canonical because the nips only like cute girls, not girls that are a foot taller than their average man.
>>333591828
>samus being 6'4
this pleases my fetishes
>>333593293
So why do people complain Samus is canonically 5'1 if that was just localization?
I've had this game in my collection for a while now.
Just popped it in since I've got nothing better to do this weekend.
What can I expect?
>>333593389
That's a horrible CRT shader.
>>333593389
it's a snes square rpg that has mario aesthetics
>>333593347
Only /v/ does, the nips never liked that interpretation, and the average fan only has ever known her as the short blonde girl, not the red headed giant thor-like creature the 90's western audience wanted her to be.
>>333593389
Nothing good. Game is shit and only praised for nostalgia.
>>333593389
a Super Mario RPG
it's very easy but it's good
>>333593550
eat shit faggot
>>333593347
>>333593337
>>333593550
it's genuinely good. really well paced and nothing gets old because the game is always changing and nothing overstays its welcome https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITLpdASZO5M
>>333593632
>weighs nearly 200 pounds
damn
>>333593528
Actually it's just a horrible camera.
I had to turn the game off to take this picture because the CRT glow fucked with the sensor.
>>333593538
>>333593550
>>333593580
Fair enough.
Unblinkered by nostalgia we shall see if the game holds up; let's do this shit.
Thanks guys.
Thinking of getting one of the mario rpg games for 3DS.
Is bowser's inside story the best choice?
>>333589734
>just keep muting it because the soundtrack is so awful.
What the fuck
>>333593774
Also, the game has a lot of hidden secrets you won't know about without a guide.
It's due to the weird translation. Pretty much every hint about secrets was removed or mistranslated, and lots of regular Mario enemies and locations have names that are completely incosistent with every game that comes before and after it.
>>333593836
Bowser's Inside Story is the best choice
Pick Partners in Time if you want a short, streamlined experience
Pick Dream Team if you want a longer game with a slower pace
Pick Paper Jam if you don't mind mini-games and lack of enemy diversity
Pick Paper Mario: Sticker Star if you've never played a Paper Mario game before (if you have, just avoid it).
