As for "Extreme Paint Brawl", it is likely an acquired taste, like the Nascar games. I dislike forced left-turns in giant ovals, but some like it. But Varmint Hunter...I can't help but think it was a joke.

I disagree. If there's an error that needs to be corrected, a matter which needs to be expanded upon, ect., then the story does need to be touched on in a remake. In fact, I believe that the FF4 remake added story which was intended for the original.

I have to agree with the rest of what you said though.

SMRPG had lots of replay value, what with an extra final boss (Culex), plenty of hidden chests, mini-games with high-scores, and other little things which made the game so good I beat it at least five times.

With this way of thinking, it's no wonder you didn't enjoy it as much. I prefer more serious themes as well, but this is Mario we're talking about. It's about as dark as the series gets.

I also happen to think SMRPG's replay value is pretty up there, I beat it usually at least once a year. But that's SD's perogative. /shrug

also, it's not like she didn't think the game was funny. She ended her post with

even if the humour was pretty rad.
She probably just likes her RPG's more serious and more epic, and I'd have to agree. Not that I don't love SMRPG, other RPG's are better.

I also stated that I prefer a darker theme, however, the experience as a whole is what counts. I personally found SMRPG to be an experience in video games I enjoyed most.

Darker theme? You're the one that ruined the Prince of Persia series! >=\
