Brothership Is the EXACT Mario & Luigi Game We NEEDED

The first "home console" Mario & Luigi game is coming to Nintendo Switch, and it looks ACTUALLY PERFECT.

Three Mario RPGs in a year pretty much. THREE. Arlo is doing some kind of summoning circle in private.

It’s like an old friend you thought died a slow miserable death came back to life and said “Let’s a go”

Sometimes I just stop what I’m doing and just admire how AMAZING the Switch library is. Nintendo Switch really has games!

I bet Nintendo hired most of people from Alphadream who already worked in this franchise

The fact they fucking OPENED with Mario and Luigi Brothership shows you they weren't joking this time around.

It shows how perfect this direct was when A NEW MARIO AND LUIGI GAME GETS OVERSHADOWED!

"You can animate it, but you can't stretch it in interesting ways..."

Super Mario 64: "Hold my face."

thank you for finally making your first actual mario & luigi video (not counting bankruptcy video)

Can't wait for the reveal that Sephiroth is the final boss of this game.

The Bros attacks having the same vibe as the old ones from Superstar Saga is the icing on the cake for me, and they're bringing back their elements for item attacks, too, so like... This might end up being the best M&L since Inside Story from a gameplay perspective. Plus the transition into 3D is just chef's kiss and works so well with how the games already worked, allowing for new ways to expand on the exploration and visuals.

Hey, man, Bowser somehow fusing with the baddie is a Mario and Luigi staple! You can't get rid of that now, it's tradition!!

I scared the crap out of my parents when I was screaming. My brain is so obsessed with the series, I recognize the freaking bushes

If luigi doesn't have striped socks i'm cancelling nintendo

With a Paper Mario getting released every 4 years, here’s an ideal setup:

In 2 years, release a Mario and Luigi

2 years after that, release a Paper Mario

Repeat

9:20 I like the bounciness of Mario here. When he lands his stomach and his mustache and everything stretch and bounce

[toadscoper]

You didn’t stress enough the fact this is the FIRST original Mario RPG title since Dream Team that has not been constrained by the 2010s era IP limitations for unique characters and settings. Paper Jam was subject to these constraints, leading to the use of paper Mario characters (albeit, they were paper versions of the standard Mario cast) as stand-ins for unique characters. Also, remakes of games were exempt from these constraints, hence the superstar saga and inside story remakes.

This is a MASSIVE development and I really wish you give more weight to this breakthrough in the future.

The name is just so good. Love the pun continuation

[Geobot]

The direct started and peaked at brothership for me…

IT’S

This game just existing makes me so incredibly happy. My favorite Mario RPG series is finally back

[TheWorstPartyMember]

The graphics remind me of something you'd see from a short-lived early 2010s Nicktoons show that never blew up but had a huge cult following.

...And I love that about them.
