Woohoo! Square seems to be planning a Super Mario RPG sequel for the DS.

Found: http://wiiz.fr/article.php?a=15171

Translated: http://gonintendo.com/?p=30026

One intresting detail is the fact that more FF characters are being brought in. Who?

UGH. Can't Square just stop bringing their characters into good things? Mario and Final Fantasy don't mix!

I can understand Disney. They made up a character and put him in with Disney and FF characters. But MARIO? Nada.

Well... this seems to be more of a rumor than an absolute fact, but it's still promising (though Final Fantasy characters does=dumb. It was stupid enough in a Mario basketball game... and besides, there's already a billion FF games on the GBA/DS already). Personally, though, I agree with what someone said on GoNintendo: try putting it on the Wii! Or not...

If it's real, then we have yet another case of brain-thievery against me.

I can understand wanting another Mario-confined RPG, but what's with all the Final Fantasy hate?
Square is one of my favorite game companies.

How about Mario and Dragon Quest?

For a silly little party game, yes. But Mario and FF in an RPG, negative. Could you honestly see Mario vs. Sephiroth?

Mario and androgynous young boys..... pass

YEESSSSSSS! Finally we get a true sequel to Super Mario RPG! but it does seem a little dumb to mix Mario with square enix guys. But who knows maybe it will turn out great. Becuase alot of people said the same thing about Paper Mario but look how that turned out!

When I say thats alot of people said about Paper Mario I meant it to mean by that paper and Mario dont mix in a way but it turned out great. Just so there isent any confusion

No, but Mario fighting alongside Vivi would rock hard. FFVII notwithstanding, it's really a great franchise.

What, there's Mario vs. who knows what in Smash Bros. now, so why not other games?

Boo Dudley · « **Reply #12 on:** November 22, 2007, 07:26:30 PM »

Smash bros. thus far has been light on story, and the sub space emissary has yet to be viewed as good.

The key difference: the story.... which it its defense we have yet to see if it works, either.... so... yeah.

Hopefully it'll just be a few FF cameos and not a full on onslaught of characters polluting the game.

The Chef · « **Reply #14 on:** November 22, 2007, 08:42:36 PM »

I can easily see them employing the standard FF races, like Moogles or Black Mages. Even Chocobos as allies and Cacutars and Tonberrys as enemies.
