About this game
Super Mario RPG is a console RPG starring none other than Nintendo's popular character Mario.
This game starts off like almost every other Mario game, with Bowser kidnapping Princess Toadstool.

However, when Mario goes to Bowser's Keep to save her, a giant sword made by the evil Smithy crashes into the castle and sends Mario, the Princess, and Bowser flying to separate parts of the world.
The game plays much like a traditional RPG: Mario and the members of his party gain experience points by defeating enemies.
These experience points can increase the team's maximum number of hit points and flower points (magic points).
The battles are also turn-based, but this time there are timed attacks and defenses.
Timed attacks allow you to inflict more harm than normal to an enemy.
Timed defenses, on the other hand, allow an enemy to inflict less harm than normal.
You are only allowed to have three out of five team members on your party at a time.
Mario is always in your party, regardless.
Your team members can also purchase more weapons and abilities, along with better armor.
About Super Nintendo Entertainment System
The Super Nintendo Entertainment System (1990/1991) is widely regarded as home to one of the strongest first-party libraries in gaming history, from Super Metroid to Chrono Trigger. It's a mature collecting market: iconic RPGs and late-cycle releases (which typically had smaller print runs as the industry moved toward the next generation) are consistently among the most sought-after and valuable cartridges from the 16-bit era.
Gamevaro tracks Super Mario RPG for Super Nintendo Entertainment System with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Super Mario RPG to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This SNES release dates back to 1996.
