Nintendo Life has posted its preview of Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, which comes with a few new details. Find them rounded up below.
– Begins with the Mario & Luigi cast in the castle
– The group sees a paper version of the pricess
– Lots of humor
– One of the E3 demo had a giant, robotic Mario held up by little Toads battling robotic Goombas
– Terrain and inhabitants in the game are rendered in 3D
– Perspective follows more closely that of Mario & Luigi rather than Paper Mario
– Folding effects into the matches like the Paper Mario games
– Card decks are new to the title
– Earn cards by gaining points
– This seems to be based on a star meter in the top left corner
– Up to three types of cards take up the entirety of the bottom of the touch screen
– Touch them to add an effect to the battle
– Ex: making you stronger, disarming your enemy in some way
– Cards are sort of like a Hearthstone element
– Options of items, jump and hammer attacks, specials and run are available in battle
– Mushroom houses, levelling up Mario poles after matches and identical items are back
– Each enemy has a text box beneath showing what level they are
– Ex: level 7 sand monster at the beginning of the E3 demo
