Truth be told, I wrote this at least three months ago for an FAQ site, but I found it on my hard drive and decided to put it up on here.

Mario is Missing

"Poor, poor Luigi."

You got to feel sorry for the guy... This, if I remember correctly, was the first game Luigi actually stared in. And by that, I mean he was the... Well, technically Mario starred in this one as well. He's gone missing and you have to find him. The game revolves around him, as usual.

DO THE MARIO! Oh... Wait... He's missing.
Oh no! Mario has been kidnapped (or, rather, plumber napped or fat-short-Italian-napped)! Luigi and Yoshi chase after the green shelled fiend only to come face to face with a tall foreboding castle. You dash in through the front gates to save your dear, beloved brother and enter a hall lined with doors. Where do they go? You enter one and see two pipes awaiting you. You hop in through one of them, not knowing what to expect.

You find yourself in a city. "Where am I?" you ask a passerby. As it turns out, you're on Earth, in one of the main cities in that region.

What? The Koopas have invaded the cities and stolen famous landmarks? The fiends! You must return the items to their proper place! You kill troopas by squashing them under your feet (or Yoshi's, if you're riding him). This game was most likely intended for little kids in elementary school, but still... BUT WHAT'S THIS?! The information monkeys deny the return of the items without answering a question based on the history of that item, or things related to it. I hope you've been paying attention to the people in the streets, because they will tell you everything you need to know (and more).

Can't Stop, Can't Stop the Beat!
Now, this is my personal taste, but I despised the music. I mean, yes it is from a NES, but Tetris had better music. Graphics wise, it's just another Mario game, albeit with different backgrounds. The cities look as interesting as that block of ice topped with hair I saw outside a college one summer. Thankfully, it doesn't take to long to beat.

Smash your TV and have adventure!
Unless if you want to be bored to death, or are already bored and want something to do, play something else, read a book, do stuff on the net, or watch TV. IT IS NOT WORTH IT! And if you have it, give it to your six year old cousin. I think he'll enjoy it, for about two minutes.

Final score is 2/10

I recommend Super Mario Brothers 3, Super Mario Sunshine, Super Mario 64 (DS or original), and Paper Mario.

Add Super Mario World to that and I agree, chu. Every mario game I have, I've beaten 100% except SPM because of a stupid glitch in my game...

Oops. Missread that. >_<;

Thought you said that you've only played SMRPG and MiM.

I REALLY suggest SMRPG. Its funny in so many ways.

Like the when the 'tadpole' Mallow learns that he's not really a tadpole.

And then the scene where Bowser joins your party... XD

And Booster, oh GOD is he funny. And creepy. XD

Is it on the virtual console? If it isn't, then there's no hope cause my NES and Super NES both blew up.........

If virtual console = VirtuaBoy, no.

There are roms, though.

*hugs her non-exploded NES and SNES*

The virtual console is on the Wii. It's the old games you can purchase. I'm just wondering if Mario RPG is on it....

It isn't, but according to Wikipedia, it'll be launched. We just don't know when.
