Luigi: Hi! How's it going? It looks like Mario is getting ready for another adventure. He doesn't need my help this time. I'm just gonna hang out behind the scenes here in the manual and give you some pointers! It's a whole new RPG filled with twists and turns! This isn't your typical role-playing game. It's got a lot of new twists! During battles, Mario can jump repeatedly or knock out enemies with a barrage of fire! caption: Battles are fought with commands. Power up with "Action Commands" (see page 30 for more info). Action Packed All sorts of things can be found during the game. Events like the mining car ride or the Yoshi race are a blast! Prepare yourself for loads of action and fun! All sorts of hidden goodies. During the game, there are so many cool things to find, like floating treasure boxes or Trampolines. Of course, there are pipes, teeter- totters, cannons, and donut blocks, too! -------------------------------pgs. 06-07------------------------ The Story Begins ... One day, while visiting Mario, Princess Toadstool was picking flowers in the garden ... Suddenly, out of nowhere, Bowser appeared and grabbed the Princess again! (Like you'd expect anyone else to?) Mario, hearing Toadstool's scream for help, sped off alone toward Bowser's Keep. After Mario trounced Bowser for the millionth time (this time they fought on one of Bowser's chandeliers), everyone felt Bowser's Keep beginning to shake! A HUGE sword crashed into Bowser's Keep! What's gonna happen now? -------------------------------pgs. 08-09----------------------- Mario's World This is the world where Mario and his friends will travel. Bowser's Keep is that thing in the middle with the giant sword sticking in it! Hurry Mario! Get a move on! Luigi: WOW ... This world is huge! So, this is where Mario is going to travel. I wonder if he'll be going to Moleville or the Sunken Ship? -------------------------------pgs. 10-11-------------------- Using the Controller L and R Button At the beginning of the game, you can select either Stereo or Mono by pressing the L and R Buttons. + Control Pad Moves Mario in 8 directions. Also moves cursor on subscreen. Select Switches between Mono and Stereo (before gameplay begins). Start Starts game. X Button Pressing the X Button during gameplay will access the menu screen. Please see page 20 for more information. A Button Allows Mario to communicate with someone, confirm selections, or check something out. B Button Allows Mario to jump. It is also used as a cancel command on the menu screen. Y Button When Mario is moving, hold the Y Button to make him move faster. Luigi: This is how you use the Controller on the map or gameplay screen, but not how to use it during battles. Please see page 28 for more information. * Controller 2 is not used. -------------------------------pgs. 12-13------------------------- Starting and Saving a Game Correctly insert the Super Mario RPG Game Pak into your Super Nintendo Entertainment System and move the "POWER" switch to the "ON" position. When the title screen appears, press START to move to the next screen. Starting from scratch On the title screen, press either START or the A Button to access the screen on the right. With the + Control Pad, move Mario to the top to select "New Game," then press either START or the A Button. Entering a file name Move the cursor with the + Control Pad and select a letter by pressing the A Button (cancel with the B Button). This is for SAVE files only. You can't change Mario's name. Start from where you left off When playing a saved game, move Mario to the desired SAVED FILE using the + Control Pad, then press the A Button. The current level, location, and number of star pieces collected are displayed. Saving your game When you want to take a break, save your progress by jumping on the Save Block [which has a yellow star on top and multicolored "S"s on the two visible sides] and turning the power off. Remember to save often! Save If Mario jumps on the Save Block, like the one shown above, a save screen will appear. Select the file you want to save and press the A Button. There are four save files. If you save in a different file, this [Not your last save -- Save here anyway?] message will appear at the top of the screen. Game Over If Mario and his friends' HP drop to zero during battle, the game is over. You will then return to the last saved point. Keep your experience points! When the game is over, you'll return to the last save point. Anything that happened after that point will have to be done again (this includes all coins and items found). However, all experience points accumulated will remain. -------------------------------pgs. 14-15------------------------ Gameplay Screens and Treasure Boxes Find out how it all works here! Overworld Screen This is the screen where all communication takes place and where all monsters appear. Look for projections on the edge of the screen to move to the next area. Map Screen When you finish an area, you'll go to the map screen. Areas that Mario can access are indicated by a red dot. Move Mario to the desired area with the + Control Pad and press the A Button. About Treasure Boxes There are treasure boxes everywhere (houses, caves, etc.) and their contents work immediately. In these boxes, you'll find ... Mushrooms Refills the party's HP and FP level. Flowers Increases maximum value of FP (Flower Points) by one. Stars You'll be invincible for a short time. All enemies that touch you will be instantly defeated. Coins Money, cash, moolah. You're gonna need it to buy weapons or items. Small coins are worth one, big ones are worth ten. caption: Jump and hit the treasure boxes from below to receive what's inside. Boxes with no "?" mark are empty. About Frog Coins In this world, there are many hidden green frog coins. Collect them to buy some cool stuff. caption: Some items can't be bought at regular stores. Spend your frog coins wisely. Map Luigi: If you get a map from someone, you'll be able to see [the overworld map]. See page 25 for more information. -------------------------------pgs. 16-17----------------------- Mario in Action! Time to learns some really cool tricks! Luigi: Mario's one tricky plumber! In this game, there are lots of tricks to help you out. caption: There are some places that require you to make a running jump. Board A panel floating in the air. Some of them move all sorts of ways. Watch their patterns, then hop on board! Spinning Flower A flower that spins. If you hop on it and jump, Mario will spring in the direction he faces. Trampoline The one [with a WARP! on it] is a warp trampoline that takes you to another area. The one [with a happy face] is a smile trampoline that lets Mario jump REALLY high. Pipes Jump on top of a pipe and press [south] on the + Control Pad. You'll descend to the underground (or to other areas). Some tree stumps can also be used as pipes. Pot Cannon Enter a pot cannon the same way you'd enter a pipe. Press the B Button to jump out. If you time it right, you'll jump farther! Donut Block If you've played other Mario games, then you probably remember Donut Blocks. Don't stand on them too long or they'll fall! More Tricks! Teeter Totter Hop on the open side. If you stand on it while it's down, when another character lands on it, Mario will ... Switch These [round, green, with a ! on them] switches are a mystery. Step on them and something will happen. Have fun figuring this one out! -------------------------------pgs. 18-19---------------------- Shopping Guide Like other RPGs, this game has inns and item shops. Talk to the shop owner and listen to what he has to say. Inns [have a star icon] Shops with Star signs above them are inns. If you spend the night there, all of your HP and FP will be completely recovered. Inn fees vary from place to place. After spending a night, press the B Button to jump out of bed.

The selling price will be displayed on the left side of the screen. Press the A Button to confirm your selection. Equipment You can equip stuff here, too. Special Shops As the game progresses, shops which you couldn't get into before in some towns will be accessible. It's a good idea to visit previous towns to make sure that you've visited every shop. Treasure Shop This shop sells rare items. If you find this store, you might want to visit once in a while. Drink Shop A members-only store. If you don't have a membership card, you won't get much here. The better the card, the better the drink! Mushroom Shop This shop is for those who like rare mushrooms. If you offer a mushroom, and it's a rare one, you can exchange it for items. Beetles Are Us Buy a beetle box, catch a beetle, and take 'em to this shop.

Special Items Mario and his friends will find all sorts of important stuff. These items are usually pretty useful. Give the special items you find to the right person in exchange for some neat stuff! Star Pieces At first, you won't have access to this command, although it'll probably be real important later on in the game. Sorry, but that's all I'll tell ya. Map You just might get a map from someone. Mario's current location is shown by his picture. Switch When Mario's party increases to more than three, this command will appear. Up to three people can fight. Use Switch to change active characters (except Mario). -------------------------------pgs. 26-27----------------------- Get Ready for Battle! Battles are set up in a command style. You'll need to get used to several controller functions. Luigi: Let's kick some monster tail! Use Mario's classic jump or try another strategy! The active party members will be displayed [in the upper left quadrant of the screen]. The face displayed will change depending on conditions (see p. 32 for more info). The numbers next to the face [are] the current value/maximum value of HP. Whoever has this [purple button grid displayed] around 'em means it's their turn. Each button is a different command (A, B, X, Y). When you press a button, pressing it again will confirm the command {see pgs. 28- 29 for more info). Enemies show up [on the right side of the screen]. Luigi: Every offensive and defensive move has an "Action Command" (see p. 30 for more information). White numbers received by a character during battle are damage points. Green numbers are recovery points. -------------------------------pgs. 28-29------------------------ Battle Commands For battle commands, press the same button [again] to confirm (any other button to cancel). + Control Pad Used for selecting the enemy you want to attack, selecting special tricks, items, and "Defense" or "Run Away".

Star Hits Stars are displayed with some special attacks. Hold any button until three stars appear. Rotational Hits With some attacks, rotate the + Control Pad for more damage. Battle Cautions In this game, flower points are shared by the party. Make sure to keep an eye on your FP consumption. Bonus Flowers When you defeat a monster, sometimes you'll receive a bonus flower. There are five different bonus flowers. See the chart below for more info. HP Max The HP of the character who receives the flower will recover up to its maximum value. Once Again The character who receives this flower gets a free turn. Attack Up Offensive power of the character who gets this flower will increase for the remainder of that particular battle.

When you're stuck in a certain spot, visit Frogfucius in Tadpole Pond for advice. Frogfucius: Luigi has given you sound advice. Pull up a toadstool and partake of my wisdom. With my help, you will go far, grasshopper. You've come to a teeter totter, but you're not jumping high enough. What will you do? Try to find a higher point to fall from. You'll jump MUCH higher this way. Sometimes, Mario cannot move when someone speaks to him. When that happens, press the B Button to jump. That person is just trying to see Mario's jumping ability. If you've come to a spot that's too high to reach, or you see a treasure box that's too high to jump to, try to find a hidden platform. Like other Mario games, there are all kinds of hidden platforms or hidden treasure boxes waiting to be found. When in doubt, JUMP! Unlike most role-playing games, everyone shares Flower Points. Make sure to always keep your Flower Points maxed out. Flower that you find in treasure boxes automatically increase your maximum Flower Points. However, other flowers that you find, such as "Flower Tabs" or "Flower Jars" won't be useful to you unless you use it as an item. You can use these anytime except during battle. On the Menu Screen, you can see how many experience points are needed for the next level, right? Remember the number, grasshopper, because when you reach the next level, your HP will be totally recovered. Frog: Look for frog coins. They can be used to buy rare and important items. Good luck. Mini-game Madness Melody Bay Jump on a tadpole and make a melody! Someone here can give you a hint. Moleville Mountain It's a mining car race! Use mushrooms for an extra boost. Don't forget to use your brakes! Beetle Race Collect as many beetles as you can by jumping on them. Try to catch a Golden Beetle! Look for other mini games during your adventure. You can find some really neat stuff! Lotsa luck to you!
