Retro_Link Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 http://uk.ign.com/articles/2013/02/14/mario-luigi-dream-team-announced During today's Nintendo Direct broadcast, the Big N announced a new entry in the Mario & Luigi series of RPG games. Called Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, this title focuses on the brother in green himself - in fact, it all takes place in Weegee's dreams. Little is known as of now, other than that players will have to interact with a sleeping Weegee to solve puzzles and defeat enemies. Oh, and Mario's also there. Mario & Luigi: Dream team is set to arrive in North America this summer. I'd have loved the next M&L to have been an animated Wii U adventure, seeing as 3DS got Paper Mario too.
Guy Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 The 3DS seems to be getting a whole lot of love at the moment. This is extremely welcome though, the Mario and Luigi games are always a lot of fun.
Magnus Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Man, I hope this will be good. You just never know with Mario RPGs, though.
Captain Falcon Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 So it seems those Alpha Dream/Nintendo patents from last year were for this game after all... @Magnus I'm not going to let Sticker Star sully my expectations for this. After BIS, AD have earned enough praise to warrant a bit of faith.
Magnus Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 @Magnus I'm not going to let Sticker Star sully my expectations for this. After BIS, AD have earned enough praise to warrant a bit of faith. Sticker Star, Super Paper Mario and Partners in Time. Mario RPGs are all over the place. Hopefully this will be one of the good ones.
Hamishmash Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 It's my favourite Mario franchise and I'm so glad Sticker Star didn't kill this series. And the plot sounds just as amazing as previous stories!
Captain Falcon Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Sticker Star, Super Paper Mario and Partners in Time. Mario RPGs are all over the place. Hopefully this will be one of the good ones. True, but AD are only responsible for one of those games and that was sandwiched between two good ones. If they are only as good as their last game, they have nothing to worry about this time around... unless this is the let down and M&L5 will be top tier again.
V. Amoleo Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Really glad that both the Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi can exist. When Paper Mario jumped to the 3DS I was worried we'd lose Mario & Luigi.
Magnus Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 unless this is the let down and M&L5 will be top tier again. It'll be Kingdom Hearts all over again! And I'll suffer through every bad game just so I'm prepared for the good ones.
Captain Falcon Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 It'll be Kingdom Hearts all over again! And I'll suffer through every bad game just so I'm prepared for the good ones. You should try being a Sonic fan :p
Magnus Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Well... at least Sonic fans know what to expect.
Ike Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Haha, like this screenshot. Graphic style looks great.
Fused King Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Alright, a few things. 1. It should have been called Luigi&Mario if they were truly commited to this being the year of Luigi. 2. Why the hell is the logo a rehash of the Bowser's Inside Story logo? 3. Art style looks fucking amazing! 4. Can't wait to get into Luigi's psyche after the Star Door incident in Mario&Luigi: Partners in Time. 5. Would've also loved for it to be on WiiU. Now then, I'm off to find appropriate gifs, starting with this one:
Jonnas Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Yes! So this is the new twist on the formula, eh? I'm wondering how are they going to handle the dialogue... Just how many voices does Luigi have in his head, again?
Hero-of-Time Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 With it being set in a dream world I demand Wart make an appearance! This guy is due a comeback!
Jonnas Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Considering the last game he appeared in was Link's Awakening, I could see that happening...
Ville Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 I think the setting is very good. Dreams = everything's possible.
Agent Gibbs Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 i am so psyched for this game! i love the Mario and Luigi games! think i missed one though...maybe partners in time....not sure i should google this, unless there was a large gap between games
Jonnas Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 i am so psyched for this game! i love the Mario and Luigi games! think i missed one though...maybe partners in time....not sure i should google this, unless there was a large gap between games Superstar Saga (GBA) was the one with the Bean Kingdom. Partners in Time (DS) was the one with the babies. Bowser's Inside Story (DS) was the one with Bowser. Those were the only games of this series to be released so far.
Agent Gibbs Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Then i've definitely not missed one then.....maybe i never finished partners in time....i can't think how that game went past a certain point, but i definitely finished the others
Fierce_LiNk Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Not sure why there are so few replies to this thread. The game looks fantastic and the concept seems daft, but you know it'll work. :p Mario and Luigi meets Inception.
