Super Mario RPG to hit Japanese Virtual Console in June

Every Monday I look at Nintendo’s Virtual Console releases. Sometimes I sigh in disappointment, sometimes I jump for joy, and other times I hadn’t even heard of the stuff they’re putting on there. Each time, though, I ask myself, “Why isn’t Super Mario RPG on this thing yet?” It looks like I won’t have to ask myself that anymore.

The classic SNES Squaresoft/Nintendo collaboration, Super Mario RPG: The Legend of the Seven Stars, is on its way to the Japanese virtual console in June. The game will cost 900 Wii Points as opposed to the typical 800 for SNES titles, but the extra 100 points is something I’d gladly shell out.

There’s little doubt of this coming to the US Virtual Console. Super Mario RPG was very well-received in its original release. The game has also been given an updated rating of E (for Everyone!) as of 2006 to replace the old Kids to Adults rating. All that’s left to do is wait.
