It's about time, am I right?
It's time to make good on a poll I posted five months ago and review Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga for the GBA and Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions on the 3DS! How well does this GBA classic hold up in 2018? Does the 3DS remake follow through on the potential to improve what was already there? Is Minion Quest any damn good? The answers to all these questions and more, all in this exciting new episode of Remake or Rebreak!

Remake or Rebreak Scores:
1- Rebreak: Fails to resurrect the same quality standard as the original due to incompetent design, technical failures, etc. A virtually worthless remake/port overall.
2- Re-Meh: Not as good as the original, but a relatively competent recreation that is still playable enough. Additionally, a Re-Meh may not address the original's salient issues or fail to add anything substantial.
3- Remake: An improvement overall, but not necessarily worth playing if you already own the original. Typically adds some new content or fixes salient issues with the original. Remakes with this score often don't reach their fullest potential or otherwise lack something meaningful you can only get in the original.
4- Replace: A remake/port that changes, fixes, and adds so much that it renders the original virtually obsolete. A Replace not only faithfully recreates the original, but fixes most (if not all) of the original's issues and adds a sizable amount of worthwhile new content as applicable.

About The Author
Anyone else searched Mario and Luigi victory in the dreamworld as soon as he talked about the music?
They toned down the difficulty too much in the remake. This game was a breeze to beat and I had sooooooo many syrups and mushrooms left over that it was impossible to lose
I am waiting a RoR about M&L Partners in Time. Because I played this game exactly 3 times and I know the mechanics and "Why the Creators doesn't put the Special Points in the Battle System".
29:41
Well, M&L Super Star Saga is not very difficult. Literally after you obtain the hammers and defeat the HooHoo Dragon. You can will be OP if you defeat especific enemies. And Yeah if you use the mathematics and if you are constant you can go Up in level 15 or 16. After of that you can defeat The next Bosses easily, seriously I defeated Popple and Rookie in less of 45 seconds.
Please do Bowser's Inside Story!!
I'm currently playing minion quest and I'm only finishing it for the story not the gameplay
Thank x1000
This game made me really nostalgic for mario and luigi games, bouta go play inside story
I honestly like the way superstar saga gba looks better than the other games
Video starts at 3:47
Isn’t it stupid they still make 3ds games and not Wii U?
18:02 Well, they puled 3d off in the 3d classics such as kirby's adventure or sonic 2, and it looked great. I think something like that would have looked really good on SS+BM
Por si acaso la tuya
I liked bowser in this, I’m probably the only one to say this, but I feel like I feel bowser isn’t as expressive as he used to be, especially in BiS
The GBA soundtrack cannot be beat by the remake soundtrack. I was disappointed when they did the final boss like that. The organ combined with those gba sounds, in my opinion, is what made it the most memorable soundtrack ever
I wanna play the remake
Ramake is bette and that is a fact
I really love both forms of the battle theme. I think both are really good, just have certain parts which are better in one or the other.
The final boss was harder in 3DS?
I…. thought it was easier. Like, everything else felt fine, normal for SSS, but the final boss did feel easier.
One very minor quirk I found is that when bowletta kills Mario and Luigi in the original the cackletta theme plays. In the remake the bowletta boss fight music starts playing again.
There are four captains
33:01 3?
I won’t buy the remake simply because the music is not the same (tone wise) as the original
I actually prefer the cartoony models over the 3ds remake
As long as the 3DS version has the Fatso joke I don't care, that's a replace for me baby.
You forgot to mention that since we can't switch the bros' positioning at will anymore, the funny little animations that played when you used the hand or hammer on the front bro before getting the special overworld abilities (e.g. mini mario, fire dash) in the original no longer exist in the remake
While I love remakes of old RPGS(The 2D PSP FF games are AMAZING examples of a well done remake), and I think the graphics are good, I can see why people say they are less "Expressive". They don't seem to "pop" quite as a much as in the GBA version, where everything does look sharper with the art style and hardware.
I feel like Bowser's Minions was almost like an early auto chess
I know I’m very late but an amazing JRPG that everyone should play is dragon quest 11.
I like the idea of these remakes but to be honest, I wish I could have them on the TV so I can share them with my wife. I love my 3DS for some games, but handheld gaming can be kind of…lonely? Definitely want to revisit the original on Wii U at some point.
The battle theme goes harder in the GBA version mainly because of the louder bass and percussion, but the remake makes up for it by extending the song and adding another section to it.
7:53 damn you were ahead of the game on the 20th century humor sfx
[33:01] Actually, Heart Blocks (or Recovery Blocks as they're really called) debuted in the Japanese version of Superstar Saga before appearing in Partners in Time.
Still need one fir the BIS remake
Something terrible
43:10
What’s that music at 22:20?
I am REALLY hoping for something like Star Fox 64 vs 3D. PLEASE MAKE THINGS LIKE THOSE.
dude you are extremely good at this, you have a very bright future it seems!
Loved this game. Played the ever loving shit out of the original. Got so good I could beat it severely underleveled. I need to give the new game a try.
Funny how my rpg nastoliga is from the remake, even though the remake is more bland the charm still shines trou
