|
| I
apparently did not update in 10 days, not what I
wanted.
Anyways, not
much this week. I've started preparations to go
back to college. It's a bit early to start, but
last year...last year was a disaster, so I'm
getting them out of the way.
Chances
are I won't be updating for a bit again, but
that's because it looks like I need my laptop
repaired. We'll have to see, I may not need it! |

Message Board / Fan Works |
|
Posted on
7.31.08 by Super Mallow |
|
|
| No news
or content this time, unfortunately. I've made
the temporary decision not to add the page I was
considering in the last update. The reason for
it is simple: If it wasn't relevant then, then
there's no need to purposely make it relevant
now.
In the
meantime, and I really hate asking for this,
we're looking for some new members to join the
Message Board.
Since it was reopened a few months ago, activity
is there, but it's just not a whole lot.
Obviously, shutting down for over a year kills
the chance of old members coming back, so we're
looking for a new set to come in.
Again, I
hate asking it...I haven't asked since we were
just a really small site. But I just think it
can do better, so I kind of want to focus on it.
We've just gotten a new skin and banner and all
that stuff, so it's a completely new start. We
just need to get that start kick-started!
In the
meantime, there's been a good amount of fan
submissions. Like I've said before, I have other
things to take care of. However, I plan to have
a large update in the near future with all the
additions. I think I have 10 or so waiting in my
inbox, so if you have anything to contribute, it
would help us out.
Lot of
text, little content. I know, I don't like it
either. |

Updating! |

7.25.08 by Super Mallow |
|
|
| Week
since the last update...not bad, but not really
good!
Anyways, we
don't have any new content for this update. I
owe a lot of people Fan Works, but I just
haven't put them up yet. I'll try and get those
soon, but I just have to take care of some other
things at the moment. Afterwards, I should be
able to get them up.
Outside of
that, well, I'm in limbo over something for the
site. Due to recent...events in my life, I'm
compelled to add a page. However, the content of
the page may be too...dark for the site. It is,
however, a part of our history that I kept quiet
at the time, but it's been kind of relevant to
me lately. The page's content, if it were not
part of our history, would be much too graphic
for the site, which is why I'm in limbo.
I'll have
to think about it. Until then, there's not much
to update about. |

So About E3... |
|
Posted on
7.18.08 by Super Mallow |
|
|
| As
expected, the thing I heard about the Super
Mario RPG Sequel being at E3 was indeed false.
It's really no surprise either. We'll jut have
to keep hope alive longer it looks like!
Outside of
that, E3 was actually terrible. No good news
except that Final Fantasy 13 will also be on the
Xbox 360, but that's not something we're going
to cover here! |

Super Mario RPG Sequel at E3? |
|
Posted on
7.13.08 by Super Mallow |
|
|
| Well, I
wanted to let the last update go a bit longer
since it's so important, but there's something
that needs to be said.
Before I get
to what it is though, I need to say one thing:
The following is nothing more than a rumor
that has come to our attention. There exists no
confirmation of it, and we in no way are saying
that this is true. Please do not try and
misconstrue it. With that in mind, let's get
to what it is.
I received
an email a few hours ago that, in short, said
that a Super Mario RPG Sequel will be unveiled
at this years E3. E3, as most of you know, is
going on the next few days starting on Monday,
July 14th.
Now, hear
me out about this. The person who sent the email
claims to be an inside source and has requested
(obviously) to remain anonymous in telling us.
If this person's claim is legit, then chances
are this is true. However, I'll be honest: I do
not think that this email is really all that
legit. After trying to contact some other
people, I've not been able to make a connection.
But, at the same time, if this is a leak, then I
wouldn't really be able to make any connection.
In short:
Don't get your hopes up just quite yet. I'm not
saying that a sequel wouldn't be announced at
E3, but let's face reality: if it was an insider
leaking news, chances are it would go to some
big site like IGN or Gamespot, not a fansite
like us. Is there a chance a sequel could be
announced? Yes, but it's very unlikely,
unfortunately.
If it's
not true, well, that's why we're saying it's
just a rumor. If it is, we're glad to bring it
up first. I just wouldn't count on it at this
point; we'll have to wait and see!
(Obviously, I hope and pray for this to be true.
It would be fantastic news!) |

Super Mario RPG Legacy Turns 5!!!! |
|
Posted on
7.9.08 by Super Mallow |
|
 |
| Look at
what we have here. 5 years, that's how long it's
been since Super Mario RPG Legacy was first
launched. Truly amazing
I did
something a bit different this time for it
instead of just recycling an old layout and
posting the year in review. I think it's much
more emphasizing on the importance of today, so
hopefully it works out.
Today
is...well, just great. I just wish people closer
to the site would've remembered it, but I
suppose I can't ask for everything! Enjoy the
celebration!!!
Oh, and
one last thing. Remember those soundtracks?
Let's just say I threw in a present for you guys
for supporting us through the years! Music
finally makes it's long awaited return!

Chrono Trigger DS!!!! |
|
Posted on
7.4.08 by Super Mallow |
|
|
| Oh man
did I freak out when I first found this out:
Square-Enix
is remaking Chrono Trigger for the DS!!! Ok,
it's not Mario RPG related directly, but this is
huge, huge news. It opens up all kinds of
possibilities for Super Mario RPG and such.
Well,
that, and the fact I love Chrono Trigger. So
it's big news to me. Nintendo seems to be
finally listening to it's fans: Earthbound
announced for VC, Smrpg announced for VC (Well,
only in Japan and PAL regions), Kirby Superstar
DS, Megaman 9 for WiiWare in a completely
old-styled Megaman game, and now Chrono Trigger.
Actually, I can't think of 4 games that were
wanted more in terms of remakes, so it seems
like they are finally getting it right. Megaman
9 is just the icing.
I didn't
have power for the last 2 days, so I couldn't
post this earlier, or trust me, I would have
Seriously,
I really did freak out / still am freaking out.
I know it's not Mario RPG related, but still, I
had to post it. Let's just hope they don't force
touch controls and don't mess it up, but Square-Enix
seems to be the best out of any company when
producing remakes.
So...there's my rant. In site related news,
remember, come back in 5 days on July 9th.
I have something big planned! |

7.2.08 by Super Mallow |

|
| We have a
super update today. By that I mean a ton of new
things were added! And for the first time in a
long time, a Super Mario RPG page was added
But we'll get
to what's been added in a moment. First, there's
some big news. Check the site in 7 days, July
9th. There's a massive update planned, and I
have a bit of a surprise for everyone.
It's
something that's pretty cool, so check back
then!
In the
mean time, here's what's been added!

Super Mario RPG Released on Japan's Virtual
Console |
|
Posted on
6.24.08 by Super Mallow |
|
|
| Amazing
to think that after 5 years of petitioning,
sending letters, sending emails, etc., we can
finally say this:
Super Mario
RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars was released on
Japan's Virtual Console today.
It's back
after 12 years. Incredible. Now we just need a
PAL and US release. |

June 24: Super Mario RPG! |
|
Posted on
6.20.08 by Super Mallow |
|
|
| I can't
believe this update is coming. Smrpg is finally
officially getting remade!
Nintendo has
announced Super Mario RPG will come out for the
Virtual Console on June 24th in Japan. It was
announced on their Japanese site:
http://www.nintendo.co.jp/wii/vc/vc_smr/index.html
Wow...it's
strange that it'll actually be out for remake.
I'm...shocked. |

Super Mario RPG Coming to Europe and Australia! |
|
Posted on
6.13.08 by Super Mallow |
|
|
| I
couldn't get to this earlier, so I apologize.
Well, I tried to, but my host is doing some work
with log-ins and stuff and I don't really know
what's going on with it.
Anyways,
Super Mario RPG has been rated as a Virtual
Console title for PAL regions, also known as
Europe and Australia. This leaves North America
as the only region where it hasn't been
confirmed as a Virtual Console release!
Good news
for those in those areas since they never got to
play the game in those regions. We'll keep you
posted on a US VC release |

Emails! |

Posted on
6.10.08 by Super Mallow |
|
|
| Those in
Pittsburgh didn't seem to like the last update
so much =P
Anyways, just
a quick update here. I've responded to all my
old emails over the last 20 days since my email
wasn't working before. The problem is, very few
went through!
I don't
know what's wrong with it, but I called Comcast
today and they've said give it the night. So
hopefully, it'll be tonight. I'll re-respond to
them and hope it works!
Other than
that, we're just watching out for Super Mario
RPG to hit Japan's Virtual Console |

Detroit Red Wings: Stanley Cup Champions!! |
|
Posted on
6.4.08 by Super Mallow |
|
 |
| Ok, so
this update has nothing to do with any Mario
RPG, nor anything does it deal with gaming in
general.
Those who
know me know 1 thing: I live and and die for
hockey, so I can't pass this opportunity up.
The
Detroit Red Wings, which are my hometown team,
are the 2007-2008 Stanley Cup Champions! They
defeated the Pittsburgh Penguins 4 games to 2
with a 3-2 win tonight.
*Is
incredible excited and has flipped out a ton in
the last 3 hours* |

Super Mario RPG Announced For Virtual Console! |
|
Posted on
5.30.08 by Super Mallow |
| |
| It looks
like we're going to go through this again!
According to
numerous places, mainly Virtual Console specific
sites, Super Mario RPG will be coming to the
Virtual Console in June. However, this is
only for Japan at this point. It will cost
900 Wii Points, 100 more (or 1$) than other
Super Nintendo titles.
So we'll
keep our eye out for it! This is great news. It
comes to no surprise. Earthbound was rated after
Nintendo Power's VC poll (check previous updates
for info), and now it appears Super Mario RPG is
heading there as well.
I'll be
contacting Nintendo for this shortly, and we'll
see if we can get confirmation!
Edit,
9:30 Pm Eastern Time: Nintendo of America
has just confirmed to Smrpg Legacy
(Hooray, one of our very few exclusive news
stories) that Super Mario RPG has not been
announced for a North American release. It is
ONLY for Japan at this point |

Super Mario RPG Is Now Number 3 |
|
Posted on
5.28.08 by Super Mallow |
| |
| Nintendo
Power kept up their poll for which titles
everyone would like to see. Unfortunately, Super
Mario RPG fell one spot in both the reader's
choice and the staff's choice.
The reader's
list:
1.
Earthbound
2. Mother
3. Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
4. Chrono Trigger
5. The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask
The
Nintendo Power staff's list:
1. Mega
Man: The Wily Wars
2. Terranigma
3. Super Mario All-Stars
4. Super Punch-Out!!
5. Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
It's still
quite impressive that Super Mario RPG is the
only title to appear in both lists, but it
would've also been good for it to be higher like
it was last issue |

Another New Section |
|
Posted on
5.25.08 by Super Mallow |
| |
| We've
added another new Paper Mario section to the
site. It's Paper Mario Peach Items!
...Ok, so
it's not that important or big of a section. I
had it done when I did the Paper Mario Key Items
page and never added it. Now it's up for
viewing!
Outside of
that, not much. My inbox is flooded with emails
from the last 2 weeks. I have not been able to
send replies because Comcast...well, is Comcast
and didn't really feel like working for a bit.
It's nearly fixed, so I'll be answering all of
those shortly.
I also
contacted Intelligent Systems about Paper Mario
DS, and like Nintendo, they're not saying
anything. We'll just have to wait and see on it |

About That Paper Mario Ds Game... |
|
Posted on
5.18.08 by Super Mallow |
| |
| Remember
all those reports about a Paper Mario remake on
the Ds? Well, I wouldn't say the thought of it
is dead, but it's just not all that much alive.
After weeks
of asking and then waiting, I shot off 2-3
emails to Nintendo this week. Paper Mario Ds is
STILL a rumor. Nintendo has not and is not
confirming that the game is actually slated for
release.
I just
wanted to update everyone on the status of it.
Outside of it, no new news! |
|
| |
| |
 |
Updating! |
|
Posted on
5.13.08 by Super Mallow |
| |
| Ok, so
this little update drought killed a lot of
momentum we had. I did not update because
college finished up and all that jazz. There was
also a problem at my other site, and it was not
fun and I just focused on getting it solved as
soon as possible.
I did contact
Nintendo a few more times during the last 9
days. Still no confirmation on Paper Mario Ds.
Other than that, it's been 12 years of Super
Mario RPG today! |

Earthbound For Wii! / New Sections! |
|
Posted on
5.04.08 by Super Mallow |
| |
| This news
isn't directly related to Super Mario RPG, but
it's great for us nonetheless. Earthbound, also
known as Mother 2, has been rated by the ESRB
for the Wii's Virtual Console!
Of course,
this is big news. Our Earthbound buddies have
been going through what us Super Mario RPG fans
have been experiencing with a remake or sequel.
They've been petioning and sending letters for
actually for 1 more year than us, so it's great
to see them get their game. Now we just need to
get ours, but this is a crucial step in getting
it. This could be really the first time I've
ever heard of Nintendo or any other gaming
company really listening to the fans.
And
remember, this is right after the Nintendo Power
results. I really don't think this is "just
coincidence" - perhaps the poll was a way of
testing both our fan bases? At this point, it
doesn't matter which way its sliced. Maybe
sometime soon we'll hear some Smrpg related news
So, that's
some good news. We've also got some goodies here
on the site. 4 new sections in fact!

Super Mario RPG Comes In 2nd! |
|
Posted on
4.30.08 by Super Mallow |
| |
| As if we
didn't need any more numbers showing how popular
Super Mario RPG really is, well, Nintendo sure
knows now. Remember how Nintendo Power was
asking people to vote for games to appear on the
Wii's Virtual Console? Well, there's no doubt
anymore.
Super Mario
RPG came in second place to Earthbound. Yes,
we'd all like Smrpg to be number 1, but if there
is going to be a game ahead of it, Earthbound
does deserve. And guess what. We beat Chrono
Trigger. Yes, that's right: Chrono Trigger.
And as a
Chrono Trigger fan as well as a Super Mario RPG
fan: If that's not something, then nothing is.
The full
list:
1.
Earthbound
2. Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
3. Chrono Trigger
4. Mother
5: The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
Actually,
I'd like to personally thank you guys for voting
it that high! |

Paper Mario Items! |

Posted on
4.27.08 by Super Mallow |
| |
| How about
this: 3 new content sections. A year ago, this
would've never happened - But like I said, that
time is over.
The main
highlight of the 3 new sections is
Paper Mario Items!
It took me forever to get "sprites" of the
items, but I finally managed to get them all.
The list does not include Key Items or items
during the Peach scenes, but those sections
should be coming soon.
The other
2 sections added aren't as glamorous, but
they're still nice to have:
Super Paper Mario Game

The Reawakening |
|
Posted on
4.23.08 by Super Mallow |
| |
| Well,
look at what we have here. This looks awfully
familiar, does it not? In fact, I could've sworn
I've seen this before...
Because I
have. Welcome to Version 8: The Reawakening! In
fact, this layout is a remake of our Version 2
layout! I think it's a pretty accurate
restoration of it, though it did have to be
changed a bit since Smrpg Legacy has also
changed in that time period
So, for
those who are long time visitors, you already
know a lot of about this layout. For those who
don't, there's some new stuff! Affiliates, like
on V2, get their buttons shown at the bottom of
each page while getting their links on the nav
bar. Also, there's a music player on the bottom
left of the nav bar! V2 had it playing
automatically, but that got highly annoying at
certain points, so the decision is up to you!
The font
is the Trebuchet MS, just like on the homepage
of V2. The URLs of each page are now
significantly longer so that search engines pick
them up better - I cannot change the page title
of each page because the system used overwrites
it.
The Culex
background is slightly a bit lighter. And, rumor
has it, if you look closely in the content area,
you'll see a diminished image of the Super Mario
RPG World Map, just like in Version 2...
But the
layout is not the major news. Well, it is, kind
of, but I don't consider it to be. The actual
part is that I actually plan to start working on
the site again. Let's be honest: From the end of
Version 6 all the way through Version 7, I ran
this site into the ground. The site deserves
better that what I gave it.
I actually
have about 8 new Super Mario RPG sections I
could make, and I plan on doing some Super Paper
Mario stuff. I will be taking a slight break
after re-doing the site because school is over
in 2 weeks and I have finals, but afterwards, I
am really hoping to get some work done. The
Affiliation page has been redone, and I plan on
going through the Links and Affiliates page and
doing them in a manner similar to that of V2
V2 was
always a bit special to me. It was the first
"layout" I actually made (minus the banner), so
it was quite important. Re-doing it has gotten
me excited to cover the Mario RPGs again.
Actually, I was originally planning to remake
Version 3, because that was our most popular,
but V2's calling was just too great to ignore!
So, grab a
hot slice and take a big bite (now, how the heck
did I get a line from a WarioWare song in
this update?) and enjoy the new-but-not-so-new
look of Super Mario RPG Legacy. It's time to
Reawaken to what we once were. Welcome to
Version 8 of Super Mario RPG Legacy |
