Another wave of classic games just dropped on Nintendo Switch Online, with Wolf of the Battlefield: Mercs, ToeJam & Earl in Panic on Funkotron, and Vectorman having just been released. These titles previously appeared on the SEGA Genesis.

Mario & Luigi: Brothership is home to 29 different challenges. Most of them are easy, and involve simply getting an Excellent on each Bros. Move 30 times. One of them in particular, however, is not easy: the Do It Yourself challenge. For this one, you have to defeat 300 enemies without using wear or accessories. You can use Boots and Hammer equipment, to be clear, but nothing else.
Other than the obvious 300 enemy count being a hindrance, there’s another problem with the Do It Yourself challenge: after a certain point in the story, it becomes more difficult to find weak enemies. We’ll explain why in a moment, but if you want to avoid spoilers, you may want to return later. In the meantime, an important word of advice: wherever you are in the story right now, we’d recommend starting to work on this challenge. It gets tougher if you clear the main story first!
