I've never actually played any of the Mario RPG games - I should really try them sometime. I'm not a great fan of most console RPG games though, I find most of them a bit tedious

I would recommend Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga, it is an RPG. But that is a loose definition. It is one of the funniest games I've played in a while.

Is that the GBA one? I'll give that a try as well - will be an excuse to play on my GBA SP.

@ruckage yup. I might be biased, but I find superstar saga to be even better crafted than Mario RPG. Let us know what you think when you try it out! ;)

@ruckage unless you want cramped hands, emulate it

Never had a problem with cramped hands playing on GBA SP, it's nice to play on original hardware sometimes.

Time to load up that ol' DS Lite and try and find a copy of Superstar Saga!

@dankcushions My sister thought that was cute.

I'll add it to my to play list - I have a feeling I'll have many hours of gaming with all these titles.

That thing never appealed to me, just too small to be practical - it looks like it would be awful to play on. It has a nice screen though apparently. It's a shame the GBA SP AGS-101 was never released here as the front light on GBA SP is the only thing that lets it down a bit. I do have a Ds-lite for playing GBA games on as well though if I want a brighter screen.

@ruckage There is a remake coming to the 3DS later this year, you might want that instead.

I don't have a 3DS sadly, not enough games on it really appealed to me to justify the cost (though Luigi's Mansion does make it tempting).

You just blew my mind, there!

@lilbud Yeah, I saw it! The Dream Team artwork with the Superstar Saga story and mechanics... sounds very interesting!

A Former User

Oh Dream Team was great for me! I'm excited for this one!

sergioad

@dankcushions I allways wanted a GBA model based on that design but at the size of screen as the SP, maybe cold Gameboy Advance XL, a mix between modern design and the original GBA

Hey there, forgive me if this has been addressed already, but I recently updated RetroPie and for some reason, the NES mini theme is acting a tad weird. When you select a system, the titles are misaligned with the boxes.

Is there a fix to this available? Thanks.

A Former User

@atexplosion Check above, same issue's been happening to others. Best you wait for a new update.

@atexplosion - Yes the latest version breaks the theme. Ruckage is working on a fix/update.

jcarhat

ah I came here to post about a bug but it looks like @ruckage is working on an update. Any eta on that?

Also gotta say, just came across this theme and its by far my favorite so far. Just beat pixel as my goto theme.
