Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga/+ Bowser's Minions
- This game marking the third attempt at a Mario RPG caused a lot of rejoicing back in the day.
- Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga being a Creator-Driven Successor to Super Mario RPG, as Alphadream was formed by the Square Enix developers that made SMRPG.
- What's this? Oh, a Superstar Saga remake— Wait. A SUPERSTAR SAGA REMAKE?! SOLD.
- Fans disappointed with Bowser's Butt-Monkey role in the original game were excited when the second gameplay mode, featuring Bowser's minions on a quest to rescue their master, was revealed.
Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time
- Baby Mario and Baby Luigi fighting and interacting alongside their adult counterparts.
- Baby Peach makes her debut.
- Baby Bowser is back and he is a Badass Adorable, he also has some hilarious and epic moments with his adult counterpart, just like Mario and Luigi.
Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story
- Oh cool, a new Mario & Luigi ga- FAWFUL IS BACK?!?!?! AND HE'S THE MAIN ANTAGONIST?!?! I HAVE CHEERS!!!!!
- Playing as Bowser is awesome itself. He even has his own battle music to go along with it. Just imagine Bowser steamrolling through enemies.
- Only half a year after Bowser's Minions released, Nintendo announced a Bowser's Inside Story remake. On its 10th anniversary.
- The addition of this game's second mode, Bowser Jr.'s Journey, has also been met with excited praise upon its reveal, since the remake can now be considered "Bowser and Jr.'s own game...co-starring the Mario Bros.".
- Additionally, the Giant Bowser battles are even animated similar to the Giant Luigi battles from Dream Team.
- Luigi stops being the longstanding Butt-Monkey in the series for once in this game where he steps up to the protagonist role and the focus is all on him using his dreams to rescue people in need and strengthen his bond with his brother.
- The Luiginary attacks are pretty creative and even use (actually pretty fun to use) motion controls.
- The Battle system is even more evolved, with defensive maneuvers being much more elaborate.
- Hey, a new Mario and Luigi game- IT'S A CROSSOVER WITH PAPER MARIO?!? SOLD!!!
- Paper Bowser can talk again (after being voiceless in the previous Paper Mario), and has his old personality back, making fans of the original Paper Mario games very happy.
- Not only are King Bob-Omb and Papercraft Luigi confirmed, but the Koopalings have returned. Even better - they can also speak◊ unlike in Superstar Saga.
