Super Mario RPG, subtitled Legend of the Seven Stars in its North American release, is a role-playing video game developed by Square and published by Nintendo for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It was released on March 9, 1996, in Japan and on May 13, 1996, in North America.
Super Mario RPG is the first role-playing video game in the Mario series. The game contains fundamental gameplay similarities and inspirations to other Square role-playing video games, such as the Final Fantasy series, with a story and action-based gameplay derived from the Super Mario Bros. series.
The story focuses on Mario and his party as they seek to eliminate the game's main antagonist, Smithy. Smithy has stolen the seven star pieces of Star Road where all the world's inhabitants' wishes become Wish Stars, and Mario must return the pieces so these wishes may again be granted. The game features five permanent playable characters. Super Mario RPG was directed by Yoshihiko Maekawa and Chihiro Fujioka and produced by Shigeru Miyamoto. Yoko Shimomura composed the game's score, which was released on a soundtrack album in Japan shortly after the game's debut.
Square did much of the development of Super Mario RPG under direct guidance from producer Shigeru Miyamoto. The game was well-received upon release, praised particularly for its 3D-rendered graphics and humor. The game has been considered to be one of the greatest video games of all time. The game was followed by two successive Mario-themed RPG series: the Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi series, both of which act as spiritual sequels and use certain conventions established in the original. Nintendo ported the game, with minor differences, to the Wii's Virtual Console service in 2008 and to the Wii U's Virtual Console service by late June 2016 to regions around the world. Nintendo re-released Super Mario RPG in the United States in September 2017 as part of the company's Super NES Classic Edition.
Super Nintendo Entertainment System: Super NES Classic Edition, known as Nintendo Classic Mini: Super Nintendo Entertainment System in Europe and Australia and the Nintendo Classic Mini: Super Famicom in Japan, is a dedicated video game console by Nintendo, which emulates the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. The console, a successor to the NES Classic Edition, comes with twenty-one Super NES titles pre-installed, including the never-before-released game Star Fox 2. It was released on the 21st anniversary of the Nintendo 64's release in North America.
