    A little late but just wanted to say thanks for helping me surpass 1000 subscribers! This is by far the fastest growing video on my channel. I've been reading your comments and I plan on making a follow up video explaining the things I may have misinterpreted, mistakes I may have made, or entries I didn't dive into as thoroughly as I could have. Plus, I'd like to share some of the things I learned from your comments. 😉

Apparently in the original Japanese version starlow makes a bad pun to which wind starts blowing because wind blowing in Japan is comparable to the sound of crickets as a sound for silence.

    "Partners in Time enemy counters" refers to some versions of Partners in Time having a mechanic where enemies would have an exclamation mark pop up over their head after the player has attacked. This was a random mechanic, and let them do an attack of their own regardless of turn order.
    If I remember correctly, it was exclusive to bosses, though.

    • @DefinitivNichtSascha
      @DefinitivNichtSascha 9 месяцев назад +14

      It's not a random mechanic, actually. It happens every time Bowser, Elder Shrooboid's 2nd form (as long as he's not lying on the ground) and Elder Princess Shroob's 1st form are hit. They will then immediately counterattack with a pre-determined attack which does not use their turn: Fire Breath for Bowser, a spike ball for Elder Shrooboid and the shoulder tackle for Elder Princess Shroob.
      As far as I know, this is in all versions except for the American one (so PAL and Japanese).

    Bowser's Inside story and Dream Team are my favorite in the series. Some people really hate on Dream Team because of the tutorials and they were kinda annoying but I love the way the world opens up more and more and you can go back to old places with new moves to explore places you couldn't reach before. I also love how each place has its own story and characters and sub plot that ties into the main plot. For instance, instead of just a boring dry desert, their is a dig operation to build a new resort and uncover the old ruins and you get to engage with all the characters working on that and you end up finding a way into the ruins and running into Antasma who steals the dream stone. I also love how alive with life Dream port city is and all the lore you can learn by reading the books scattered throughout. They really call back to the Paper Mario games with that one. My favorite part of the game was the Massif bros. The whole journey from finding them in the dream world to climbing Mount pajamaja and their zaney antics and humor. The statues that reference Greek mythology and then the mamooska boss at the top. I didn't have the drop chopper yet (I missed it on the way up) so the fight was a lot harder than it should have been and I appreciated that. The leveling system was way better in DT than BIS which I felt was way too easy in the first half and then when you finally make it out of Bowser you are way under leveled and the characters grow levels way too fast.
    Dream Team had a perfect difficulty increase with the progression. However I think that Superstar Saga had the best mini games. I wish that it would have had post-game secrets. I loved the story in Partners In Time and the way the baby bros can separate from the bros to solve puzzles. I love the battle system using the babies ontop of the bros which adds more nuance to the timed attacks and dodges but the bros items were ...meh. I loved the story and progression. But it lacked cool mini games and it was way too linear. There were no secrets of any kind really. There were no older areas that opened up more once you learned new moves to go back and explore, no secret bosses or post game stuff. But I actually enjoyed my second playthrough more than my first which was unusual. I normally like a bunch of extra content and secrets but I like how quickly the game moves and progresses abd there is no dull or tedious boring moments. I love the lore in BIS with the optional shroobs boss. I didn't even know about it till after I finished the game! I found out that I was missing 2 bros moves and the brogey attack for Bowser which I enjoyed because it means that those things are extras and you have to go out of your way to find them so it rewards exploration. I love that Dream Team has a hard mode option for when you beat the game. I have not attempted it yet and have not been able to beat Antasma X yet. But I look forward to playing through it again. I also have not played the original BIS. I've only played the remake and I love it. But I found out that there is a medal that makes all the enemies stronger which technically makes it so you can play most of the game in hard mode which is really cool. But in the remake you can only get it once you beat all the bosses in the challenge node. That means you only can use it for basically the last 2 bosses. That stinks! I don't know why they did that it defeats the whole purpose. So I need to buy the original BIS to experience that. I literally just finished Paper Jam a couple days ago and it wasn't really special at all. It was fun but it could have been so much more.
    Props to anyone who read this whole message and I'd love to hear what everyone's favorite game in the series is and why.
    God bless.

    but, in Bowser's Inside Story, where Bowser wakes up in Cavi Cape, there's a gate with a sign on it (the gate opens by hitting the falling balls next to it)
    in the french version, it is implied that this gate, and the wooden structure around it was part of the S.S. Chuckola

    12:26 ok this scene is missing lots of context. Starlow originaly made a bad pun in the Japanese version. In the japanese language, wind is often used in the same way people use crickets in the english language when referring to an unfunny joke being made. However, this ends up making this whole scene strange in the english version because of the lack of explanation. Whats funny is Im pretty sure (I might be wrong) Starlow makes another pun in bowser's inside story when she's teaching mario and luigi how to fight together, but in the English version it ends up turning out really awkward.
    (Edit: just realized some else said the same thing)
    22:08 pretty sure its referring to an unused mechanic that I believe can actually appear in some versions of the game (don't quote me on that) where some bosses can attack immediately after you attack them like in superstar saga
    32:40 aside from the connection you made to them both liking beef. There's a youtuber called fawful's minion that has made jokes saying that the master bros are the reason fawful wasnt in the game.
    51:34 refers to how characters in the mario and luigi series (primarily in superstar saga) call luigi the green brother as a running joke. The reason its labeled as blue brother however, is because the Japanese language often likes to use green and blue interchangeably with one another. Since they, for the longest time (and sometimes still) see green as a shade of blue

    27:40 "It was discovered" makes it sound like the code was hidden by the developers while in actuality Toadbert mentions it in-game through a dialogue when you visit him in Toad Square right before going to the Lumbar Nook.
    33:22 I think *Gromba Swap* refers to the fact that in the very first Gromba fight in the game, two Grombas charge at Mario in the overworld yet only one appears in-battle, while in the next battle, only one Gromba attacks on the overworld but there are two enemies present in-battle. It seems feels like these two encounters were somehow swapped.

    a whole hour of M&L content? Truly a blessed piece of art
    If I may add to the iceberg:
    I can't remember where I heard it from (I think it was from Did You Know Gaming or a similar channel), but apparently in the first three games the Japanese OST names were always directly translated to English for localization.
    It explains why some we got some weird OST names in English copies, usually the battle themes. Also explains why fans call certain tracks by different names. Some will say The Grand Finale (the official OST name that was used in the soundtrack release iirc), others say In The Final. Some say Tough Guy Alert (also part of the "official soundtrack"), others say They're Pretty Tough, Should We Be Careful? . The directly translated names came first though from what I remember
    Also, I should mention the issue that the remakes present when trying to establish a track's name lol. In SS the boss theme is widely knowm as "Come on, Again" while in SSDX it's "We Can't lose" even the GBA version
    And just a small thing, but a lot of people on RUclips use the title " 'Final Battle' / 'Boss Battle' " when uploading the tracks or a remaster to RUclips, even when the OST appears to have an official name or semi official/fanon name. The most notorious examples of this I can think of is the theme of Elder P Shroobs second phase. Its semi official name is "Another's Requiem"
    The OSTs seem to have so much confusion around them that someone could probably make a whole video on them alone

    I think people were more curious as to where the red pipe itself led. not only are you never able to use it because it's higher than you can get to, you never see a corresponding red pipe on the outside that it could lead to. another thing about that entry is that bowser inhaled a bunch of pipes that ended up in his ear somehow, but how they are able to form connections with the outside after being seemingly partially destroyed and then inhaled is still a mystery. i know the whole point is that the pipe yard is how you fast travel as the bros, but the implications of pipes being in there are interesting

      What most intrigues me about Bowser's body is the way he eats things. When he inhales the bros at the start of the game, they're sent to a completely different place than any of the other food Bowser eats, which is shown in the digestion minigame where food enters the correct place and is digested. The path Mario and Luigi take through his body doesn't pass through the minigame area, so where did they end up and how did they get there without being digested?
      Also something that I've really wondered why no one seems to question - WHY, just WHY, does bowser have a life saving protocol in his body, during which in the case that Bowser is close to death, two tiny people would operate a raft and fire red and green bullets at corresponding red and green energy particles that make him turn huge and recover fully from his injuries? How could that physically be operated by anyone other than Mario and Luigi? The other minigames in his body could be operated by globin fairly easily or done automatically, but not this one. The globin know how it works and what it is, which means it's clearly been here for a while as a manual thing in Bowser's body, except they've just never done it? At least it has continuity in the fact that we never see Bowser use this in the entire series, except for when the bros. do it for him in inside story, and even in the main games it's usually done by Kamek's magic or something, not Bowser's body itself. But how did it get there and why is it there in the first place? It feels way too oddly specific and situational.

      @@maratby4364 the organisms in bowser's body appear to be not only highly intelligent but also very apparent of the strange inner workings of their host. the vacuum shroom that bowser ate in dimble wood changed his body unpredictably and the different globins realized that something weird was happening and adapted to fit the situation, like the evoglobins for example. maybe they realized that there were a lot of foreign entities that were interacting with bowser's system now and tried to communicate with some of them to ask them to help bowser instead of their typical immune functions (probably as a rational alternative to fighting EVERY OTHER ORGANISM that bowser inhaled), and luckily mario and luigi got inhaled and were willing to help them out
      i think the vacuum shroom makes anything that enters bowser's body shrink down to make it seem like his body is bigger on the inside whilst also being able to fit "more" stuff in him, and this increase in size reverses when he spits stuff up or when things leave his body. i also believe that the vacuum shroom made bowser's body a more adaptable environment to accommodate for the dozens of things he can now inhale into it. kinda like how blaze from sonic calls her flames a "curse" but still uses them as super useful powers. fawful "cursed" bowser by causing him to inhale lots of crap, but he turned it into a tool that can let him power up from what he inhales, and he just so happened to inhale the mario bros

    I had a really, REALLY long discussion with my best friend the other day about how we theorized that parts of PiT, and Bowser’s Inside Story arent canon to the series, or are at least a part of a different timeline separate from the main series timeline. It had something to do with how the baby versions of Mario & Luigi give the adult Mario & Luigi their hammers at the end of the game and are the adult Mario & Luigi in Bowser’s Inside Story based on the cutscene that plays in the frozen room with the Shroobs in Bowser’s Castle where Starlow repeats what Mario says about them having fought the Shroobs as children, so it got us thinking to the point where we thought maybe the babies were part of the “RPG” timeline, and how Partners in Time and Superstar Saga are the only entries to the series that are from the “Mainline” timeline, whereas the rest of the series is from the RPG timeline. It also had to to with Fawful and how in PiT he reminisced about seeing the clothing of the babies and it reminding him of the Mario & Luigi who trounced him in Superstar Saga

    Awesome video! There are a few things I'd like to add or mention:
    •I'm genuinely surprised there's nothing on the iceberg about the character Yikk from Bowser's Inside Story, because I think he's one of the most intriguing characters in the whole franchise. Like, is he human? Who IS he?? He only shows up in this one game (and not even in the flesh) and then never shows up again.
    A theory I had for a while that's kind of dark is that Bowser actually killed Yikk during the giant battle against the tower of Yikk, so that spooked me to think about.
    But later I realized Yikk was probably already dead for some time and that's why the tower wasn't being used anymore.
    •Also nothing about Chakron and how he watches over you the entire game and shows you your ranks after the credits, but maybe that's an obvious one.
    •There is a glitch in Dream Team where if you didn't update the game, the game would softlock after you beat Antasma X but only if you used any Luiginary attacks, preventing you from unlocking the boss medley.
    This actually happened to me after I FINALLY defeated Antasma X after coming back to the game years later, only to have the game softlock (my SD card slot is broken so I can't update the game).
    I was able to win by using the right gear and only using regular attacks without any Luiginary, which was difficult but rewarding.
    Maybe there was something else but that's all I can think of for now

    20:59 I own a German version of the original Mario & Luigi Adventure Bowser and I can confirm that this special bossfight is so laggy, that one cannot play this game anymore basically. It really does confuse you on how you should act. The weirdest part about it is, that it starts normally and that, the more progress you make over there, the more laggier it gets. Never managed to defeat that boss because of it.

  • @PluckyInc
    @PluckyInc 9 месяцев назад +8

    honestly, i think Nintendo probably saw how Alphadream was extremely referential to other nintendo franchises in general in early development and told them to draw it back. it'd explain why the cafe cameos+dialogue was removed, yet the items they give were renamed. Bink probably was a strange case since even though he's a Kong, the minigame he's a part of wasn't a Donkey Kong reference. maybe he was OK as a reference, only if he was a skeleton. Rareware did get bought out by Microsoft at the time, they were probably worried about expanding the Donkey Kong cast. it'd help that Nintendo wasn't sure if they owned Diddy Kong wholly and went with DK Jr for Mario Tennis 64. they could've just had their arms tied with informing them of the potential buyout until it was made public long after designing graphics for Bink.
    Nintendo didn't utilize the DKC IP nor their characters until 2004 with Jungle Beat and the Konga series, maybe there was a brief moratorium until Microsoft gave Rareware the A-OK on being able to produce games for handhelds, since they had no competition there. (with the DKC GBA Games. also reworking Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers into Its Mr Pants).

    Something that I thought was weird and inconsistent was the fact that both bowser and the bros share money in BIS. It just seemed strange even though it was my favorite of the series. Also they should have made it so Something happens when you make the bros go to where you left bowser on the world map but he's just gone.

    • @Skilletking2010
      @Skilletking2010 Месяц назад

      Itd have just been another boss fight. When the bros go to toad town topside Bowser shows up to fight them because he believes they've been trapped while he's getting stronger.
      I figured after that the implication is that, if Bowser is in the overworld with the bros, they will fight. It's kind of confirmed with the ending as well.

      It isn't that absurd actually. Looking at the canary islands, they do have a lot of different climates, often even on the same island. Since most of the time, the wind and moisture comes from the north, the south is much drier and hotter than the north. Sometimes, you can really see the difference in vegetation between north facing and south facing slopes on two sides of a ridge, just a few meters apart from each other. Not only that, there are even sandy areas on la Palma and Lanzarote.

    There's a really obscure easter egg in the barrel sorting minigame in Superstar Saga.
    When you do really well, some different sprites show up in the bottom right corner of the screen for a second.
    One of them is a boney chain chomp, the other is a stalfos from the first zelda game.
    I think you have to clear multiple rows of barrels in one move to gwt them to appear.
    Also, if you play the practice mode for a long time, eventually Bink will need to take a break and eat a banana for a few seconds.

Maybe Luigi dreamed of Antasma because He also noticed that something Bad is Going to Happen. Or Antasma invaded Luigis Dream in Hope of getting Out of the Dream World
