Don't Call It a Comeback; 5 Nintendo Characters That Need Their Time in the Sun

Nintendo have had all kinds of weird and wacky personalities on offer throughout the years, but some of them have fallen to the wayside for one reason or another. And it's not cool - some of them are still beloved by the fans, and we're just itching at the chance for them to ride once more.

Here are just some of those characters we'd love to bring back from extinction. Who else would you like to see?

I remember reading in a Nintendo Power issue about 20 years ago that there were plans of giving Geno his own game. But it just seems that it’s too difficult due to copyright issues. Not sure why Square never made a gameboy game at least.

Super Mario RPG review (Nintendo Switch): Colorful, charming and chock-full of humor - Beyond Pixels

Super Mario RPG Needs To Be More Than a 1:1 Remake

Super Mario RPG's upcoming remake needs to maintain the classic game as much as possible, but new content and extra bosses would make it even better.

A true sequel would be great bring back Square again use Mellow and Gino in a new story.

The only thing I might add in 1 more party member.

I always felt like "5" in the original was such a weird choice. All the UI had slots for 6 characters. c

On top of that, there are 3 canon Mario characters(Mario, Bowser, Peach), but 2 new ones in Mallow and Geno. I can't help but think there was supposed to be a third that was cut for time.(Croco or Johnny Jones perhaps)

FFIV & FFV had 5 party members onscreen

Not a weird design choice

gold_drake310d ago

ff5 had four members onscreen. not 5

4 did, yes. but it was the only mainline with five party members on the screen.

Nebaku309d ago

Wasn't what I said. I'm talking about overall amount of party members, not how many are on screen.

neomahi310d ago

I don't think so. I think the graphical upgrade is good enough

If you watched the announcement trailer for more than 10 seconds you'd realize its not 1:1.

Nebaku309d ago

How so? Visually, it's as 1:1 as you can humanly get. They literally recreated scenes part for part in full 3d.

As for gameplay, the changes we can see are so incredibly minor. Joystick movement as opposed to d-pad, some chain boosts added during battle, etc.

There is a limit break-style gauge shown in the battles...
