Mario & Luigi: Dream Team staff on cut Luigi attack, tough development, AlphaDream/Nintendo collaboration, old Mario

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News | 0 comments

As is the case for development on most games, AlphaDream cut a number of ideas while working on Mario & Luigi: Dream Team. One such idea was a volcano Luigi attack – tons of little Luigis would take on a volcanic form, erupt, and attack enemies.

The idea may have “looked cool”, as Hiroyuki Kubota explained to Kotaku, “but it wasn’t going to control very well”.

“It was something that once we came up with the prototype for, played around a little bit. We realized it looked cool, but it wasn’t going to control very well, so that was something we had to strike out.”

To say that Mario & Luigi: Dream Team went through a difficult and length development cycle would be an understatement. The game was made between two platforms and went through seven versions over a four year process, right after Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story was completed.
