     * gatotsu2501:​ A charming little game with several impressive-for-its-time innovations that periodically poked their heads up again in both its more polished Nintendo-developed spiritual successors and a handful of subsequent Squaresoft games. May not quite live up to its reputation if you're over the age of 10 the first time you play it.     * gatotsu2501:​ A charming little game with several impressive-for-its-time innovations that periodically poked their heads up again in both its more polished Nintendo-developed spiritual successors and a handful of subsequent Squaresoft games.

 +    * CubaLibre: I actually think //SMRPG// is probably a contender for best [[genre:​JRPG]]. People remember it fondly as charming and cute and so forth but I think it's also eminently playable and briskly, minorly challenging the way a good JRPG should be. It and //​[[game:​Chrono Trigger]]// are probably the only JRPGs I'd pick up and replay for fun (not counting //​[[game:​Earthbound]]//​ and //​[[game:​Mother 3]]//, which are sort of different beasts).
 +    * Broco: I think //Mario RPG// is a bad game primarily because it's ugly-looking. Much of the reason to like the [[company:​squaresoft|Square]] games of the same era is their fantastic pixel art; //SMRPG// has this really disjointed pseudo-3d look.
 +    * schroeder: My favorite part of //SMRPG// is that it harnessed the impatient tapping everyone does in JRPG battles and made it a mechanic.
