Mario & Luigi Dream Team Bros.

This 3DS entry of the Mario & Luigi RPG series brings plenty of new stuff to the table, while enhancing stuff that was present before. If you've played Bowser's Inside Story, this plays pretty much like that game, but on steroids.Whereas the previous one focused on Bowser, this one focuses on Luigi, though not to the same degree as Bowser in the previous game. The Mario Bros. travel between the Real World and the Dream World to battle foes both familiar and new, and each one features their own battle systems and boss battles. Dream World requires Luigi to sleep, so when you go inside them, you get "Dreamy Luigi" instead, who offers much more ambitious moves and concepts than standard Luigi, at the cost of him not being present in battle... at least as a separate ... MoreThis 3DS entry of the Mario & Luigi RPG series brings plenty of new stuff to the table, while enhancing stuff that was present before.

The Mario Bros. travel between the Real World and the Dream World to battle foes both familiar and new, and each one features their own battle systems and boss battles. Dream World requires Luigi to sleep, so when you go inside them, you get "Dreamy Luigi" instead, who offers much more ambitious moves and concepts than standard Luigi, at the cost of him not being present in battle... at least as a separate character. Instead, Dreamy Luigi will fuse with Mario and enhance Mario's natural stats, and this also gives Mario a new host of "Luiginary" attacks that can be learnt throughout the story. Bros Attacks also make a comeback, but in a reduced and slightly different format than before. This time, each bro has five unique Bro Attacks(Though one is shared between the two, the attack features different properties), which makes for deeper strategy.Enemy and Boss patterns are also stepped up, becoming more difficult than ever. Speaking of difficulty, they've finally added a Hard Mode to the game! The catch is, you need to beat the game at least once before unlocking it, much like the Master Quest mode for Ocarina of Time 3D..

When I first seen this game on Nintendo trailers. I figured that I would give this game a shot. It reminded me of an interactive side scroller and an RPG combined. Which is exactly what this game really is. When you enter the dream world it becomes more of a puzzling side scroller game/rpg. There are so many options that evolve when fighting in RPG mode. It keeps you active instead of just picking a fight/heal/item mode and then just watching to see what happens. When you are on defense, you are interactive as well.I became so addictive to this game that I missed a week of school, didn't use the bathroom for at least 2 days, didn't shower, skipped work, and forgot to pay my rent. This is how much in the zone I was in this game.

Dream Team is one of the best games I own on 3DS. It provides a very lengthy story line and layers of worlds to explore. I'm a grown adult male but I am hooked on the "Mario and Luigi" RPG games. It is a series that our whole family can enjoy. Be aware though that only 2 game save slots are available so if you have 3 wanting to play it someone will have to wait their turn or get two cartridges.The 3D effects are great and the graphics overall are impressive.I loved the Luigi dream levels after I got used to them.They have included the ability to save anywhere at any time in this game which is a great feature!Cons:I currently have found no way to fast travel around the island in the game...but it is a minor issue and I'm only maybe halfway through the game.Most of ... MoreDream Team is one of the best games I own on 3DS.

If you found areas of Bowsers Inside Story difficult this may be a good thing though.

Mario & Luigi is an RPG series starring Mario and Luigi as the main characters. The games are noted for having the same director who produced Super Mario RPG on the SNES.This most recent foray into the series has you more often than not playing Luigi over Mario. Dream Team progresses very well with little to no grinding. The secrets and hidden content is challenging to find but not tedious, and the special attacks are even more goofy than every other game in the series since you can now have dream attacks. It's weird, it's imaginative, and it's an excellent addition to the Mario & Luigi series.The only issue I had with this game is that at times it can be extremely difficult to time special attacks right and get the full amount of damage you can possibly get against ... MoreMario & Luigi is an RPG series starring Mario and Luigi as the main characters.

I believe this game is suitable for kids, but make sure they can tell the difference between violence and acceptable behavior.

I'll just be brief. This game is fantastic. The visuals are great to look at, (best 3d on the system, hands down. almost never clips for me) colorful, interesting environments abound, no framerate issues, plenty of variety, it's just all fantastic. The skill-based RPG combat system is very polished and most enemies have several different types of attacks that keep battles fresh as you move on through the story. The story is about as complicated as you'd expect (not very) and is definitely the weak point of the game. However, I will say that if you bought a Mario game for the story, you've made a mistake.Basically the gameplay is solid, the environment is interesting, the characters are charming and the music is fantastic.

This is my third purchase in the Mario&Luigi series. I've bought Partners in Time, and Bowser's Inside Story. This is a great addition, with a unique storyline and playstyle, while still keeping a lot of the parts that I love from the other games.Basic summary: The whole crew is invited to a new paradise island "Pi'illo", where a whole resort has been built. The previous inhabitants of the island were the Pi'illo people, but all that's left is ruins and some mysteries. Of course, upon arriving at the island, Princess Peach is KIDNAPPED!! Luckily, you can save her easily, but you discover something about the mystery behind the island, and as Mario and Luigi you must save the island from great evil!Unique Playstyle introduced: As part of saving the island, you must ... MoreThis is my third purchase in the Mario&Luigi series.

Luckily, you can save her easily, but you discover something about the mystery behind the island, and as Mario and Luigi you must save the island from great evil!Unique Playstyle introduced: As part of saving the island, you must enter the dream world. To do this, Luigi takes a nap! Mario enters the dream world and plays with "Dreamy Luigi". Dreamy Luigi is able to duplicate himself, as well as manipulate things in the dream world. New bros attacks, new functions (using the 'r' and 'l' buttons). Overall, very easy to learn, mildly difficult (enough to be fun but not frustrating).New things I like:1. "retry in easy mode" if you lose a boss battle2. 3D! There's some attacks that occur in 3D, and they are well implemented- easy and fun. For example, in the dream world, you might be attacked by a group of 20 enemies (remember, Luigi can clone himself so this isn't a problem!). They might split up, and throw things all you from all directions (N,.

I really do like this game a lot. So much humor in it! I am a very determined player, and once I start a game I like to finish it ASAP. I've been playing this game for about 12 hrs total now, and I'm just going to have to face the fact that although this game is very fun to play, IMHO it's a little slow and textalicious for my taste. I like games that require critical thinking and problem solving. This game pretty much tells you exactly what to do, and then you go do it. It's a delightful RPG and I'm glad to own it, I just wish there wasn't so much talking and having to run around to .8 million places,lol. This game will be one I play every now and then, otherwise I feel I will become tired of it. I guess I'll have to learn patience and pacing myself.

After the success of Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga, for the GBA, the silly dialog and impressive game mechanics won over millions of children, and rightfully so.After that, the developers, Alpha Dream produced three more games: Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time, for the Nintendo DS, Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, for the Nintendo DS as well, and this game.To clarify, I had already had my expectations high up after playing Partners in Time and Bowser's Inside Story. Would this game meet the expectations?Well... they actually surpassed my expectations.The game has wonderful graphics, a great storyline, and a plot twist that genuinely shocked me. They also seemed to up the goofiness and comedy, what with the newcomer, Dreambert, and Dreamy Luigi.Well, okay, ... MoreAfter the success of Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga, for the GBA, the silly dialog and impressive game mechanics won over millions of children, and rightfully so.After that, the developers, Alpha Dream produced three more games: Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time, for the Nintendo DS, Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, for the Nintendo DS as well, and this game.To clarify, I had already had my expectations high up after playing Partners in Time and Bowser's Inside Story.

They also seemed to up the goofiness and comedy, what with the newcomer, Dreambert, and Dreamy Luigi.Well, okay, let's get started.Gameplay: A typical Mario and Luigi game; it's an RPG, where you battle enemies, and gain stats and levels when you defeat them. However, now there's a new gimmick - everytime you reach a new rank, you get the chance to add on a trait for the respective brother; for example, you can save on BP.With the Dream World, you control both Mario and Dreamy Luigi; and there are new mechanics, called Luiginary works. Basically, as Luigi is sleeping, you can manipulate what he does in his sleep (I.E. pull on his moustache - ouch - rub on his nose to make him sneeze, ectera.) and have Mario reach the new goals. When you get into battles, Mario can use Dreamy Luigi attacks, which basically summon many Luigis t.

I was VERY surprised how good this game was because I was SLIGHTLY let down by the previous game, Bowser's Inside Story which was a good gameTbut just SHORT of making the game AMAZING! But DREAM TEAM DELIVERS! This game has been developed and worked on for over 3-4 YEARS! No wonder this game packs quite a punch and TONS of stuff to do. Great and FUNNY story line and who knows, this game may even be your most favorite of the series! I always said to myself that "Superstar Saga" the first Mario and Luigi game was my absolute favorite but Dream Team is quickly becoming the favorite and may replace the "SuperStar Saga" position if this keeps up! Clocked in about 25 hours so far and I am STILL playing because there is still SO much more to do! Anyways, BUY THIS GAME and ... MoreI was VERY surprised how good this game was because I was SLIGHTLY let down by the previous game, Bowser's Inside Story which was a good gameTbut just SHORT of making the game AMAZING!
