New Hand-Held Adventure Sends Mario & Luigi Inside the Body of Beloved Nintendo Villain

REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Sure, he’s a villain, but Bowser™ is one of the most beloved characters in Nintendo’s imaginative Mushroom Kingdom. Now, with today’s launch of the Mario & Luigi™: Bowser’s Inside Story game for the hand-held Nintendo DS™ and Nintendo DSi™ video game systems, fans will get to know the cantankerous King Koopa inside and out — literally. The new game finds Mario™ and Luigi™ getting inhaled by Bowser, sending players straight to the belly of the beast for an outrageous hand-held adventure.

Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story lets players adventure through two fun and hilarious storylines at the same time, taking control of the famous Mario brothers and even Bowser himself. Not only must players control Bowser to win back control of his castle from the evil Fawful, they’ve also got to muster the guts to help Mario and Luigias they try to escape from Bowser’s body. Players can switch between the two storylines independently as they attempt to rescue Princess Peach™ and restore order to Mushroom Kingdom.

For the most part, Mickey Mouse’s role in video games has been limited to the Kingdom Hearts series. A few months ago though, leaked concept art and details were released for Warren Spector’s “Epic Mickey,” which will supposedly focus on old/forgotten characters that wish to take revenge against Mickey. And in next month’s Game Informer, the game may finally see a proper announcement.

In the October 2009 issue of the magazine, Game Informer provided the following teaser:

Something epic is brewing

Next month, Game Informer unleashes a storm of epic proportions with its new design and website relaunch, and the star of the show is someone you just might know…

On the second page of the teaser, there’s a picture of Mickey’s head…Just without the face. I’d say there’s a good chance that the cover story for next month’s G.I. is Epic Mickey, especially considering that there seems to be emphasis on the word “epic.”

Thanks to kepo for the news tip!
