I was going under the logic of NP, where they listed SCII because it had one single difference.

The only two musics I can remember are the Bowser music and the Shy Guy's Toy Box music. So those. :D

You KNOW what I meant when I said Mario. I meant the Mario SERIES. Paper Mario wouldn't be the same without the Mario series, but Super Mario RPG could survive very easily without Mario in it, because it doesn't have any sort of a Mario feel. And don't tell me "but you can jump!" You can jump in Zelda: Link's Awakening. Doesn't make it a platformer. SMRPG is a failed attempt at a Platformer/RPG; in battle, the Timed Attacks were limited to 'Tap this button so many times!' 'Push A when you land!', whilst Paper Mario and the others had more advanced timed hits. Plus, the enemy's characteristics have nothing to do with the battle. Each enemy feels like the same enemy, but with different visuals and different names for their attacks, except for Spinies. But their Spiked tops make them invulnerable from damage, but you take no damage. In Paper Mario, spiked enemies can't be jumped upon without the right badge, you can't hit a flying enemy with your Hammer (can't reach), a Koopa Troopa's shell raises their defense unless they're flipped onto their back, but a Shady Koopa is still dangerous on its back. What does SMRPG have? Enemies are barely unique at all.

Super Mario RPG is synonymous with overrated.

Let's rank the four.

Graphics: Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door > Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga > Paper Mario > Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

Gameplay: Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door > Paper Mario > Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga > Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

Storyline: Paper Mario > Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door > Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga > Super Mario RPG: The Legend of the Seven Stars

Charm: Paper Mario > Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door > Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga > Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

Ingenuity: Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga > Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door > Paper Mario > Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

Honestly now, how do you rank SMRPG above any of the others? It had crappy pretend 3D. It tried to mimic Mario's platforming genre, but fails miserably compared to the latter three. Remember Vines? They're the only one who phailed at that kind of gameplay. And if you took the Mario out of the RPG, it would still be intact; it doesn't have a Mario feeling. Switch the Mario characters to original characters, and the gameplay won't make you think Mario.

I think you should add as many characters to it as long as they are more than an image.

Well, sure, but individual items are listed. Those such as Jerry the Bob-omb have sprites, they're not JUST mentioned. They have some info, they have an appearance, what's un-Mariopedic about it?

If the staff doesn't plan on updating it, I'd be willing to do it.
