Nakayama: Wooow!

Ijūin: What do you mean, "Wooow"?

Nakayama: That surprised me!

Ijūin: You're pretty hyped up today, huh?

Nakayama: I guess so!

Ijūin: Moving on. This week's game that absolutely everyone is talking about: Super Mario RPG!

Mr. Editor-in-Chief, can you give us some more details about this one?

Hamamura: Well, the graphics are quite nice. Do you remember how Yoshi's Island's art-style resembles drawings?

Ijūin: Right, it looks hand-drawn.

Hamamura: Yes. This game's style is quite different. It's more like Donkey Kong Country's graphics—
