About This Item

Set sail on an island-hopping adventure starring Mario and Luigi. The brothers return for a brand-new adventure on the high seas! A mysterious power has fractured the world of Concordia into many scattered islands, and it’s up to Mario and Luigi to reconnect them. Venture out on Shipshape Island (part ship, part island) and launch out of its cannon to visit, explore, and quest your way through islands that range from tropical rainforests to bustling cities. Meet new friends along the way, like Connie and Snoutlet (definitely not a pig), and encounter familiar faces from the Mushroom Kingdom like Peach and Bowser, who may help—or hinder—you on your journey. Make choices about the order you visit islands in, and your approach to the challenges you’ll face, as you chart your path through the story! Rely on Mario and Luigi’s brotherly bond and abilities to succeed. Unleash the mighty power of Mario and Luigi’s brotherly bond to overcome adversity and thwart foes! Use Bros. Moves to bypass obstacles while you explore by turning into a ball or UFO, or even throwing fire and ice balls to melt or freeze something in your way. Take advantage of powerful Bros. Attacks like Zapperator in a dynamic twist on turn-based combat, where well-timed attacks, dodges, and counterattacks are key to defeating foes! Equip Battle Plugs for extra abilities, like guaranteed critical hits against flying targets, to get a strategic advantage on your enemies. Swap Battle Plugs whenever you want, and experiment with creative combinations to create different effects—you’ll need every edge this “brothership” gives you to save the day! Discover the power of Luigi’s inventive mind with Luigi Logic. Luigi’s got lots of ideas for handling problems. His flashes of inspiration will help Mario explore, solve puzzles, collect items, and more. He’s also got some, er, unconventional approaches that might take you by surprise. Wait until you see the tricks he comes up with to help you deal big damage in boss battles!

Q: Is this a new game in the Mario & Luigi series or a re-release?

A: This is a brand new game in the Mario & Luigi series, the first since 2015.

Q: What is the genre of Mario & Luigi: Brothership?

A: The game falls under the Action and Adventure genre.

Q: What gaming platforms is Mario & Luigi: Brothership compatible with?

A: This game is compatible with the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch - OLED Model.

Q: Does this game feature a turn-based combat system?

A: Yes, the game features a dynamic twist on turn-based combat where timing attacks, dodges, and counterattacks are key.

Q: How does the gameplay utilize the bond between Mario and Luigi?

A: Players use "Bros. Moves" to overcome obstacles and "Bros. Attacks" to fight enemies, requiring strategic use of their abilities.

Q: will my pre-order bonus come in the mail also? or do i have to in person to get it?

A: If you selected your game for it to be delivered to your home, then both your game and your pre-order bonus will be delivered to your home.

Q: What's the new studio that's developing this? Obviously a bankrupt studio can't develop a game, which is why I'm asking.

A: We probably won't know for sure until closer to the launch of the game, either through leaks or the game itself. Nintendo has said that some of the staff that worked on the series at AlphaDream are involved, but they haven't named the studio that developed the game yet.

Q: Anyone else sad that they didn't allow for 2 player mode? It feels like a huge missed opportunity on this game

A: Yes! Me too, when I watched the trailer I thought there must be at least an option for two players... But I was disappointed as well to find out, as I was really looking forward to playing this with my brother.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door - Nintendo Switch – OLED Model, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Lite

Join Mario on an epic paper-adventure to collect the Crystal Stars before the X-Nauts do! The nefarious X-Nauts are after the treasure behind the Thousand-Year Door! With a map from Princess Peach, and the help of a few locals, Mario journeys through a colorful world made of paper to find them first. To prevail in this quest, you’ll have to level up Mario and his friends, master timing-based attacks and badges to impress the audience on the stage of combat, and make use of all the abilities that come with being cursed—er, conveniently made of paper—like folding into a plane to cross big gaps or turning sideways to slip through narrow openings. Leaf through a storybook world with charming characters in every fold. Surprises abound in this deep and engaging tale, where everyone’s got something to say and it’s often not what you’d expect. Mario will meet all kinds of interesting folks on his journey, like the upbeat and studious Goombella and the shy but determined Koops. Some of these characters will need your help with their own quests, or even join your party. Others, like Peach and Bowser, have stories of their own that you’ll play between Mario’s chapters! A classic turns the page, bringing fresh visuals and updated features. Twenty years after the original game on the Nintendo GameCube system, this version for the Nintendo Switch system has revamped graphics, and a suite of additional changes that make the game easier than ever to enjoy.
