Maf Posted June 18, 2024 Share Posted June 18, 2024 What a surprise! Incredible style! Move over Astrobot, I have a new most wanted this year/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandsomeDead Posted June 18, 2024 Share Posted June 18, 2024 I do really like the animation. The M&L games usually did have a more looney toons style but to see it finally in 3D is cooler than I thought. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maf Posted June 18, 2024 Author Share Posted June 18, 2024 Yeah, looney-toons comparison is very apt. Nintendo more and more are getting cartoon-y and stylish with their games. Mario Odessey, Link’s Awakening Remake, Mario Wonder, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retroed Posted June 18, 2024 Share Posted June 18, 2024 Looks lovely. I wonder who is developing it, now that AlphaDream are no more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maryokutai Posted June 18, 2024 Share Posted June 18, 2024 Yeah, I hope they hired some of those guys when that studio shut down. I'm sure people will look into this game's background in the coming months. Cool surprise though. Looks decent enough, the wacky animations are superb. Not sure if I'm ready for yet another Mario PRG so soon after Paper Mario but I'll play it at some point for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfnick Posted June 18, 2024 Share Posted June 18, 2024 Always like a M&L game. I actually hate the art style though. I think it looks shit. But I’ll get used to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maf Posted June 18, 2024 Author Share Posted June 18, 2024 Speaking of bad art styles I never finished Dream Team or even played Paper Jam because I hated what they did with the art. But I’m so hype I might go back and play them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm the opposite, I think they're soul crushingly dull. What starts out as interesting enough combat just starts to grate, everything moves so so slow. They're not very good and I'm not entirely sure how they've managed to skate along on the reputation of the first couple of games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandsomeDead Posted June 19, 2024 Share Posted June 19, 2024 So as for who's making it there's observations that Nintendo did take in key AlphaDream staff when they closed and they're spread around so it could still be any team, like it may even be Monolith Soft as at least one is there. https://x.com/Stealth40k/status/1803226827080491008?t=V5_ELuCek53S-IXI1wQxEQ&s=19 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maf Posted June 20, 2024 Author Share Posted June 20, 2024 Look at how sick some of these moves are. This is an amazing step for the series https://x.com/iceashera/status/1803200678510141883?s=12&t=juYHQ5_-Jn2mNy4TIBMSgA People dunking on the name which I get, Brothership is kind of soft. Having said that, the thing I love about these games is that it’s an adventure with the Super Mario Bros. I’m really looking forward to the game putting emphasis on their relationship and them looking out for each other and being a fun comedy duo. Another reason I’m so happy with the graphics and style upgrade that we can really see the Mario Bros in a more cinematic/pixar kind of way but in a game. I’m so looking forward to this game it’s bumped Astro Bot down to my no.2 most anticipated game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maf Posted July 3, 2024 Author Share Posted July 3, 2024 I was going to say it would be cool if they kept doing this the other day, and they are! They’re keeping the same box art theme from the DS & 3DS games. It’s a small thing but I really like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maf Posted November 4, 2024 Author Share Posted November 4, 2024 Oof 79/100 on Metacritic https://www.metacritic.com/game/mario-and-luigi-brothership/ Ah. They’re probably wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikman Posted November 4, 2024 Share Posted November 4, 2024 Hmmm, I was going to say I'd wait until reviews from sites that align with my POV are up, but they are. Looks like 70-90 ish. I might wait a bit, although I doubt it will ever be very discounted anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisturbedSwan Posted November 4, 2024 Share Posted November 4, 2024 79 is a good score 🤷♂️ Wish it was higher for my fantasy team though lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maryokutai Posted November 5, 2024 Share Posted November 5, 2024 The score is fine, but some outlets like ign say that it's very hand-holding, the humour isn't really there anymore and that it suffers from quite severe performance issues, while highlighting the combat as its strongest point. In fairness, outside of the performance thing, that already was the case with every Mario & Luigi game after Bowser's Inside Story, so it probably depends on whether you're okay with just a 'decent' entry or if you were hoping for something that would rival the series' high points. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
