Fawlful is the best character
I have chortles.
Wasn't there a costume for him in Smash 4? It could be possible

Absolutely. The system needs more games like this.

The best thing we can ask for is for them to restore the original scenarios for eGadds coffee shop

This might actually get me to dust off my 3DS.
I finished in 12 hours the last time I played. For people who are returning, this will only be a few hours long.
In addition to the Smash costume, they literally had to re-license him again for the Wii U release of the original game. I don't think Squenix is charging an arm and a leg for his use.

I'll have to get out the ol' Majora for one last ride. Any chance to snuff out memories of bad Mario RPGs in exchange for shiny versions of older, better games is one I gotta take.
for sure

I hope it comes out for Switch too, not just 3DS. I am personally done with the 3DS, and will not "dust it off" just to play this great game once again.
Based on the OP, it seems like it will be for 3DS. Sorry man.
BIS is more of a return to form and fixes a lot of the problems of PiT. Still fairly linear, but playing as Bowser ends up being a bit more logical than controlling Baby Mario and Luigi, and bosses aren't nearly as tanky.
A remake of an older game on a platform where you can reuse assets and engine from later titles isn't that absurd. Paper Jam even used Superstar Saga's battle theme for a short period of the game.
Most of the work is already done for them, basically.

If you're in Japan you can also play all the mainline Dragon Quests (IIRC). Stateside, not so much (4 to 9), but that's still a lot of DQs.

Well there's always E3, so who knows how much the Switch will still get.

Port begging before the game is even announced? Amazing.
Is asking for a Nintendo game to appear on a Nintendo device actually port begging?

That surely must be the last game said neogaf for the tenth time.

Every 3DS game thread is littered with Switch port begging.

You know an RPG being short is a good thing.

You should see the Monster Hunter 5 thirst in the Japanese sales threads.

This game was so much fun on GBA. I really loved the original art style so a part of me just wants it to be a plain port, but who knows. If it's a remake, I hope it turns out even better.
Looking forward to more information about it.

I feel like that's the best time to port beg...

Is it surprising?
I didn't want to play a ps3 game after getting my ps4, why would I want to find out where my 3ds has been buried for months (might have given it away I don't even remember) when the new nintendo handheld is out?

To me it is. I love zelda and switch is a nice piece of hardware. But its not a great portable experience with that battery and not being that small. Personally for older games that can run on either, I would rather see them on 3ds. I want new games on switch, but if a game works the same on either give me the 3ds version.

I agree with the Switch not being the most comfortable handheld, but I would still like to see new games on the Switch at this point.

This forum is full of Switch gamers wanting games and hoping game X, Y or Z is coming. A new Nintendo generation indeed
This is neat news. I imagine that Nintendo will show both Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga DX and Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle at E3. A double dose of Mario RPG goodness before the main course, Super Mario Odyssey.
Maybe the M&L remake will be a key 3DS title this holiday season alongside the unnamed Kirby multiplayer action title?
At any rate, I'm personally interested in this since I adored the original M&L but fell off the bandwagon with the sequel Partners in Time (a good game, but something about the game's aesthetic made me lose interest). I'd love to return to the Bean Bean Kingdom and see how it looks with the updated visuals in Dream Team, assuming that's the plan here.

The first three were all pretty good in my opinion. Superstar Saga and Bower's Inside Story were the best.
I can't wait for this. I would love to play this game again.

Only for 3DS? That's a goddamn shame.

The final name of the game is Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions
That's a terrible name.
