The pitch at Nintendo HQ for this title probably went a little something like this: “Goodness, we barely have any Mario titles anymore, apart from the fifty currently available to play. We definitely need another, and perhaps cross over another series too while we at it.”
Okay, fine. I’m being harsh. In fact, a little hypocritical too, because I generally love seeing that dungaree-clad Italian-accented plumber on my screen. And sooner or later, this was bound to happen, because Mario & Luigi and Paper Mario were two of Nintendo’s most entertaining franchises on two vastly different platforms.
