The Super Mario RPG Nintendo Switch remake just leaked online, and it looks like some folks got their hands on it early, probably from stores jumping the gun on the release date. If you’re psyched about playing the game fresh without spoilers, you might want to consider muting or blocking certain social media accounts until it officially drops on November 17th.
This remake isn’t just a blast from the past; it’s got some cool new stuff and tweaks. Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to the game, it’s a chance to experience the classic RPG on the Nintendo Switch. People are bound to be chatting about how it compares to the original, so be ready for some gaming discussions.
But here’s the deal: the leak, spotted by Twitter user OatmealDome, spilled some details that you might prefer to discover in-game. So, if you’re aiming for a spoiler-free ride, it might be a good idea to keep a low profile on social media until the official release on November 17th.
Now, as for how this leak happened – seems like some eager players got their hands on early copies, likely from stores breaking the street date. As a result, the game’s ROM ended up online, letting those with Nintendo Switch emulators on their PCs get an early peek. OatmealDrome even dished out some tech details, like the game running on the Unity Engine, the internal codename, and the helping hand from a specific developer. Their advice? Play it safe, maybe block or mute a few accounts to dodge those spoilers.
And here’s the kicker – this isn’t a one-time thing. Nintendo Switch games have been leaking like crazy this year, thanks to PC emulation and retailers getting a bit too trigger-happy on release dates. From Super Mario Bros. Wonder to Tears of the Kingdom and Pikmin 4, leaks are becoming a bit of a headache for Nintendo fans. So, stay on your toes out there, gaming buddies!
