User Manual

Summary

Responsible for birthing the Mario RPG-style game, like Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi. One of those cult classics that was lost to time until the Switch remake. Geno.

Acquisition

I scored a copy of this for $25 from a guy off Facebook in the early-ish days of COVID-19. Absolute steal. He also gave me a broken Wavebird controller and a busted copy of Yoshi's Story. The Wavebird is in good shape. I think the receiver is the issue. The copy of Yoshi is toast.

This is one of my great finds.

Memories

My biggest memory of the game has nothing to do with the game. I became aware of this game's existence because of the "Geno in Smash" rumors that swirled in the Brawl days. I've always felt an attachment to it solely because of that hype circle.
