Just tonight I completed my first time through Super Mario RPG, a roleplaying game starring Mario released in 1996.

I started playing this game as a time filler while I was in Philadelphia waiting to judge student congress rounds. It was surprisingly fun, simple, and didn’t require a lot of physical dexterity (which can be tough when playing a console game with a keyboard). During my time in Philadelphia I managed to get most of the way through the game.

Since then, I’ve been playing it when I’m having trouble sleeping or I’m watching things compile.

Overall, it was a quite fun game. I had forgotten how genuinely fun the classic style RPG was (classic style as in not a series of cutscenes on one hand or a 15,000 playable character 18 billion item universe on the other). If you haven’t had a chance to play through this classic, I would highly recommend giving it a shot with your favorite SNES emulator.
