Like actually in general my parents never just. bought me video games unprompted. I listen to Scott the Woz talk about his parents buying him games and Nintendo Power subscriptions just for no reason and I'm like. ?????? Families do that?

Just a little cute idea I had ;)
I watched a YouTuber play this cuz I wasn’t paying 60 for that, but I really liked the cutscenes and the mini Marios to make a little something. I know that dk, Luigi, peach, and Pauline get their own toys in a later game but I like to make up in-game realities so what can I say
Also, WHEN IS NINTENDO GONNA RELEASE A LUIGI TOY FIGURE/PLUSH!? OR OF ANY OF THE OTHER CHARACTERS!?

I finished the ttyd remake a while ago and from the moment I started playing the game I immediately fell head over heels for it! It absolutely oozes charm and I’m so utterly grateful I was able to finally experience it. Also Goombella my beloved, I love this sassy lil nerd so much

Mario and Luigi: Back BROTHER Than Ever! by Mast3r-Rainb0w
I just couldn't believe this when I found out about it, even after AlphaDream's unfortunate closing!
First SMRPG gets a remake, then PM:TTYD gets a remake, and now the "Mario & Luigi" series finally gets its sixth installment, in the form of "Mario & Luigi: Brothership"!
We're truly living in a Mario role-playing Renaissance! What a time to be alive.
And to celebrate the excitement for the game, here's the best bros themselves drawn in the classic "Superstar Saga" artstyle! Enjoy!

Like, we can quibble about merits of fidelity to the source material in principle, but in practice I have literally never encountered an "exactly the same thing except in a higher resolution" remake that actually added to my understanding of the material in any way. They just skate across the surface of my brain without leaving any lasting impression – I don't even remember them except for the bits that depart from the original, which kind of defeats the purpose of a faithful remake. I understand that there's a spectrum of fidelity in play here, but if my only choices are a beat-for-beat recapitulation and some egregious bait-and-switch meta bullshit? I'll take the second one every time.
