Rumor: Full title for Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga on 3DS is Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser’s Minions
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, Rumors | 15 Comments
We have another small update on the rumored 3DS version of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. Over the past few days, it’s been going by the name “Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga DX”. However, that wasn’t the final title apparently.
The 3DS release now appears to be going by Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser’s Minions. That’s based on data scooped up from the 3DS eShop server. The “Bowser’s Minions” part should explain the presence of a Goomba spotted in the game’s icon.
We’ve been categorizing these posts as rumors to be on the safe side, but many are expecting an announcement at this point. Nintendo may have something to say about it at E3 in June.
Rumor: Rough look at the Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga DX icon
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, Rumors | 12 Comments
A couple of days ago, apparent news leaked out about Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga DX. Data for the game was said to be found sitting on the 3DS eShop through some nontraditional means.
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga DX is starting to look even more likely, as SciresM – who claimed to have found the data initially – now says he’s located the game’s icon as well. Here’s a rough look:
At this point, I’d be pretty surprised if Nintendo didn’t end up announcing this game. News at E3 would be expected.
Mysterious data for “Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga DX” spotted on 3DS eShop server
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 38 Comments
A curious listing has been found on the 3DS eShop for something called “Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga DX”. This can’t be accessed through normal means, but its title data does exist. We won’t get into specifics here since the data may have been accessed via hacking.
Nothing has been officially announced, but today’s discovery would suggest that Nintendo could be doing something new with the first entry in the Mario & Luigi franchise. Might a remake of the game be announced at E3?

[Review] Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam
Posted on 8 years ago by Vincent Ward in 3DS, Reviews | 9 Comments
System: 3DS
Release date: January 22, 2016
Developer: AlphaDream
Publisher Nintendo
In all honesty, Mario & Luigi has fallen off my radar within the last few years. That’s not due to a dislike of the various games. I played the first one, but after that, I simply never picked up another title. However, when Nintendo announced that Paper Mario would be coming together with Mario & Luigi, my love for the former franchise was enough to finally push me to giving it another spin. Now that the RPG is finally in my hands, I can comfortably say that Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam is a great representation of both series.

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam features a red case in North America
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Perhaps not the biggest or most surprising news from today, but I thought it was interesting how Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam comes in a red case for its North American version. As far as I’m aware, it’s standard white packaging in other territories. We’ve seen the red casing with a few games in the past, such as with Mario Kart 8. The re-releases of Mario Kart 7, Super Mario 3D Land, and New Super Mario Bros. 2 also had the red packaging.
