But leave it to the fans to create something truly special \u2014 a modern-day mock-up of what a Super Mario RPG remake might look like.<\/p>\n<p>Originally reported on by <a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/super-mario-rpg-remake-by-fan-info-footage\/\">Destructoid<\/a> and shared by <a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/gonintendo.com\/contents\/6175-fan-made-mockup-shows-what-a-super-mario-rpg-remake-could-be-like\">GoNintendo<\/a>, digital artist Finn has been creating some lovely-looking visuals for a dream Super Mario RPG remake and sharing them on Twitter. These screens are from Mushroom Way, one of the early parts of the game, and feature Mario and Mallow. And despite being a &#8220;remake&#8221;, the visuals still retain that top-down perspective and toy-like visuals of the SNES original.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"object object-tweet\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p><span lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Some screenshots <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/4Bxht0448l\">pic.twitter.com\/4Bxht0448l<\/a><\/span>\u2014 Finn (@huckori) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/huckori\/status\/1542926633702592513?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 1, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/aside>\n<aside class=\"object object-tweet\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p><span lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Revisited some textures, models, and lighting for the pipehouse scene aswell. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/2yXEpPSiXx\">pic.twitter.com\/2yXEpPSiXx<\/a><\/span>\u2014 Finn (@huckori) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/huckori\/status\/1542927318217154560?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 1, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/aside>\n<p>It&#8217;s an entirely faithful reimagining of this RPG classic from the looks of things, and we want to dive right in.
