This would be a megaton, but I lean more towards doubting this. Nintendo and Square Enix's relationship has improved greatly since then so anything is possible. With the uncertainty of the Mario & Luigi series, who knows where Mario RPGs will go from here. I personally think the Mario & Luigi series has gotten stale and the RPG genre and Mario need a shakeup. This would do it.

A shakeup would consist of a throwback title specifically catering to people who played a game from 25 years ago? 

I mean, I get what you mean don't get me wrong, but nonetheless it's funny. 

Well, it doesn't have to be a 1:1 recreation of SMRPG with a new story and prettied up. It's been 24 years since the original, I think they'd have new ideas and not just rely on SMRPG as reference material. I feel Nintendo and SE could play off of eachother's ideas (what they've learned since 1995-96) and create something that easily surpasses the original SMRPG.
