That does look nice.
From the battle scenes, it looks like the battle system is an EXACT copy of Paper Mario. While the Mario RPG series has had similar action oriented turn based battles for a while now (as well as action elements outside of battles), they all differed in their own ways. I suppose I.S. liked their rendition so much they decided not to change a thing (even though Mario & Luigi decided to alter the system themselves, with amazingly fun results) when making Mario RPG 4. Oh well, Paper Mario was a very fun game, and I wouldn't mind one with the exact same gameplay. Still, I guess I expected the next Mario RPG to have it's own uniqueness...
Eh, oh well, I'm still looking forward to this.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
