After the recent release of Super Mario RPG on the Switch last week, Nintendo has provided an update on its customer support page, acknowledging the discovery of a bug that may impede progress.
Nintendo plans to release a software patch next month to fix this issue. In the meantime, here are the bug details and a workaround:
Super Mario RPG Notice Regarding a Bug
Bug contents
In some cases, after the Paratroopa event triggers in Monstro Town, the Paratroopas will not appear when you go to Land’s End, causing you to become unable to progress in the game.
Bug workaround
If you encounter this bug, you should go to the Mushroom Kingdom, then return to Land’s End again. Doing so should make the Paratroopas appear as intended.
Notes:
– There’s no need for you to go inside the castle in the Mushroom Kingdom. The bug should be fixed if you enter the town around the castle.
– It’s fine for you to use the map to travel to the Mushroom Kingdom.
– When returning to Land’s End from the Mushroom Kingdom, you can either use the map or the “To World Map” option.
Despite some minor bugs, the return of this SNES classic is still well worth a look:
