- Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga is a joy to review. The way they portray characters in gameplay and dialogue fleshes them out way more than the average Mario game.

Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga | The Completionist
/ thatonevideogamer - Hry
R.I.P Fawful
Superstar saga - Bowsers inside story
R.I.P. Toadsworth
Superstar saga - Dream team
Seriously, where was toadsworth in paperjam
it made no sense to just cut him out like that.
I know Myamoto only wanted them to use characters from the Mario family, but Toadsworth clearly fits in there.
wariolandgoldpiramid He only suggested that for Paper Mario as far as I know, and atleast we got Toadette as replacement in that game.
I actually didn't realize toadsworth wasn't in paper jam. another reason to HATE paper jam!
Toadsworth is back in the Mario & Luigi Superstar Remake.
Hopefully it jumps some more popularity in the character to become a mainstay like Captain Toad did with Toadette.
Motovation I'm playing dream team and I thought that was a spoiler lol
Wait, Jirard said he had to go back and grind when dealing with the final bosses but had zero deaths? So, what, did he soft reset when he realized he was fucked or something?
maybe he had a lot of trouble in one boss and grinded in anticipation of future bosses?
@329link That...actually makes sense. Good thinking.
my thoughts exactly
Perhaps he ran from them?
Oh wait, you can't run from Bosses...
It is kinda weird
Jerad forgot to mention the advance bro moves that you get from mastering the bro attacks and the secret bro moves.
ExRetribution That damn Jerad... I don't know why Jirard allows him on the show.
Thumbs up
Yeah it is a bad thing to not cover
@AAA Silva Yeah, I wish they kept that mechanic. Rewarding the player for not just learning the moves but mastering them to the point where the bros in-game can improve and become stronger.
L+R makes both brothers go back to the basic jump
I wish I would've known that during my playthrough of M&L: SS
To be exact, it's the Mario and Luigi series, not Superstar Saga series.
Its_Elkku yeah he said in The beginning of the video that they never made a sequel but they did with parenters in time, bowser's inside sorry, and etc
Derek Balsinde he's talking about mario RPG not the M and L series at the start
Its_Elkku Spiritual Successors I guess
Derek Balsinde *facepalm*
I got so ticked when he called it the *Superstar Saga Series* instead of *Mario & Luigi RPG Series*.
I remembered when i first played this game, my body was never ready on how hard the final boss was.
Zachary Putnam yeah the gap for the final boss was crazy
Zachary Putnam I never had a boss make me stop playing for a day til the end. It's awesome , but tough.
Agreed. I think i should get Mario and Luigi on my Wii-U virtual console so i can finally get revenge on that boss.
Zachary Putnam Totally recommend doing so.
I recently bought the game and basically just upgraded attack every level up, and gave Luigi pants that let him use a move before the enemy in a fight. It let him heal Mario and himself before the enemy could get the end of our health gone. Then I just hung in there and smacked her up.
R.I.P Alpha dream
R.I.P Mario and Luigi partners in time 3d
A week later a remake does get announced. Coincidence?
Makes a person wonder doesn't it?
I think not!!!
MatPat: I don't think so
WELL IN THAT CASE, JIRARD, CAN YOU MAYBE, JUST POSSIBLY, DO SUPER MARIO SUMSHINE? HMM?
Kinda like how Nintendo has straight taken Arin/egoraptors ideas for their games. No way it can be coincidence when a CZcamsr says something very specific and Nintendo does the exact thing they said.
HE FINALLY TOOK ON A MARIO AND LUIGI TITLE!!!! I patiently await Mario and Luigi Bowser's Inside Story...
Same here, it's my favorite Mario RPG
I'll wait on the side for Partners in Time...
We ALL wait for that moment
I'll be waiting with you.
i know this wont come for a long time but I WANT DREAM TEAM
"switching back to neutral jump"
a secret to everybody, try pressing L and R at the same time, it makes it a breeze.
THIS!!! THIS WAS MY FIRST MARIO GAME!!! IVE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IT WAS CALLED FOR YEARS!! I’VE FINALLY FOUND IT THANK YOU!!!
Your adventure has been complete
Superstar Saga was the SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT. One of my favourite Mario games and (dare I say it!) one of my favourite RPGs.
Steel4 I you hated at first until I saw the word ‘the’. Weird how there’s shit and THE shit
09IB636 I think we should stop saying ‘the’ shit, because you’re technically calling it shit. Unless you think shit is awesome... ew...
@@hicclesilly shit is awesome
@@hicclesilly Well, shit means stuff sometimes such as in "the shit".
AGREED!
The Mario and Luigi games are rarely ever talked about amongst Normal Boots or Hidden Block, finally one of you acknowledges them...
It's kinda sad how M&L gets way less attention than Paper Mario. It's better IMO.
SayFuzzyPickles Well, Paper Jam was a little dull in my opinion, not nearly as creative as the previous entries if we're talking about enemy design....
I never played Paper Jam, but I played the other 4. Dream Team was the worst IMO, it was just not as good as the others. Bowser's Inside Story is still one of my favorite games of all time, and I loved the other two as well.
SayFuzzyPickles it's a tie between Inside Story and Superstar Saga for the best in the series
SayFuzzyPickles I disagree. I think they're equally fantastic for their own reasons.
"I don't want to spoil this amazing game for you."
Soon after shows the scene in which it's explained that Peach's voice was never actually stolen in the beginning of the game.
Yea
I don't understand you said the last few bosses were way too hard but yet you had zero deaths. HUH???
Maybe by difficult, he just meant that he lasted forever to drop their HP.
Of course there has to be an Awful Fawful reference
I love it.
Let me know your favorite Mario RPG game!
That One Video Gamer A bit of a strange one, but I enjoyed Paper Jam the most.
Superstar Saga is just such a unique game to me. I find something new and rediscover parts of the story every time I play.
That One Video Gamer superstar saga 2: Mario and Luigi
Bowsers Inside Story. You play as Bowser, enough said
That One Video Gamer Partners in Time was the first RPG I ever played so it has a place in my heart.
Although I've never played it, I love this game.
AceBen Huh?
What
StrongestBoss When Iwas really little my brother got it on his Gameboy and I watched him play it all.
Then, Chuggaaconroy LPed it 2 years ago and the memories came back. They haven't left since.
You should pick it up! It's great, my favorite way to play was on the GameCube adaptor.
AceBen Brooooooo! you, me, Let's play dis shiz.
Proud to call this my favorite video game of all time.
Same, my dude.
+Evan Ur That's Bis for me.
Vladimir Chavez BIS is a close second. In fact, I probably just prefer this due to nostalgia.
Same!!!!!!!! I know his game backwards and forwards and beat it over 10 times I also can beat some bosses before they even get a chance to attack!
JoeDan54 can't wait for the remakes
Now that you mention it, E Gadd was pretty much everywhere after Luigi's Mansion. He was in the Mario Party games, this game and PIT. I'm surprised he's not in Mario Kart yet. I'd rather have him in the roster of that franchise. The Mario Kart games have been pretty lazy with regards to characters (Metal Mario, Pink Gold Peach).
He didn't really stay like Rosalina did.
Danny Palin it would also be cool to have Paulina in mario kart
I'd prefer him over the fucking queen bee from SMG
Bashers of Mario RPGs that came before Bowser's Inside Story: *THE FUCK DID Y'ALL SAY ABOUT PRINCESS PEACH, YOU NATHANIEL BANDY BANDWAGONERS????!!!! WHY THE FUCK DO PEOPLE EVEN LIKE PROFESSOR E. GADD!!!!!*
The Ultimate Daredevil: *YOU TROLLERS TAKE THAT BACK!!!!!!! sigh* Cyberbullying in a nutshell...
E.Gadd was going to be in Mario Kart DS but he was replaced with Dry Bones
Mario & Luigi is one of the best games nintendo released imo
well another game off the six-page list of games I want Jirard 2 review
Tengushadow777 what about jirard 1?
He died so the clone took over.
which is why Jirard doesnt burn games anymore.
This is one of the most unappreciated RPGs and one of my favorite games! Thank you for paying respect to an oft forgotten masterpiece 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Everyone tell jaiden animations to make a video about the mario and luigi series
This is my favorite game of all time. I love it so much.
Jocky J I would love to see the return of the bean bean kingdom in Super Mario Odyssey
H. Turton Great news! This game is getting a remaster for the 3ds and comes out this October!
Same! Cackletta is considerably my favorite female villain of all time!
i know but i would love to see a 3d representation in Odyssey
Me too!!!!!!
Did anyone else look at the thumbnail and think, for a brief second, that this was gonna be a collaboration with Fawful's Minion? Anybody else??
You aren't the only one.
I used to like him but he acts like everything he says everyone should agree with and is really aggressive about it.
veRtIcalproducs I've always felt that was sort of the joke. Nothing he does on is channel other than the order of his stuff is supposed to be taken all that seriously. It's a persona he puts on, like the Nostalgia Critic.
you ain't alone
Rabano Doom Yeeeeees!
U should add the spoiler part back
Yeah, he completely spoiled Color Splash without warning, and just randomly decided to not spoil a 14 year old game.
Da Nintendude Well he put in the final boss. However, I'd like the spoiler section back with timestamps.
Bartholomew Peter Yeah, he used to have the *WARNING SPOILERS: Skip to the time on the screen!* but no he just doesn't care.
Da Nintendude Well he has mentioned at some point that it affected views, but I dunno man.
Bartholomew Peter But it just doesn't make sense... I was looking forward to watching the Color Splash one, but had to stop because he spoiled the twist straight up and footage of the final boss. Me and a lot of other people got mad and left after that... That twist would've been perfect for the spoiler section, but without the spoiler section, it ruined a couple of our experiences.
I think being inconsiderate will make you lose more views than saving spoilers for it's own warned section.
This video made me feel so much nostalgia. I can vividly remember playing this game on so many long road trips when I was little.
You gotta remember, Geno's body was a regular old doll. It makes sense, lore-wise, that he'd be used this way.
"If only I could get da meatball sandwich outta mah pocket!"
Stay classy, Mario.
FAWFUL'S MINION!?!
Edit:HOLY SHIT LIKES!?!
Did someone say senpai
...where tf do you think he got the idea for his character from lmao
Nope, just Fawful himself.
Oskar The guy > Knows fawfuls minion
> Somehow doesn't know he loves mario and luigi.
sladikk aware of this.
This is one of my favorite JRPGs of all time and favorite Mario game, glad you finally got through to do it.
“Luigi is the butt of a million jokes, much more than he ever did in Luigi’s mansion and for that, you got to give him props” me:anger nosies LUIGI ABUSE
Review Mario and Luigi Bower's inside story.
I miss the spoiler section :(
TheAwesomeDarkNinja same
It really diminishes the point of completing a game when you can't even see the ending section.
the main problem with the removal of the spoiler section - this video contains a spoiler / plot twist woth no warning!
The spoiler section was stupid. I couldn't watch episodes about games I hadn't played because I wanted to know if I should bother completing them or not, but I didn't want to know story spoilers, and skipping the spoiler section with the button wouldn't ONLY skip the story stuff, but ALSO all the completion stuff, making the video pointless. I'd have to go digging through the video trying to find where the story spoilers ended and the completion stuff began so I could watch the part I wanted to watch without seeing the part I didn't want to watch, but then by searching through the video LOOKING for that part, I'd end up seeing story stuff in the spoiler section! It was a nightmare and wasn't worth it so I stopped watching the videos. I'm glad the spoiler section is gone. Jirard's reviews aren't about the story, they're about the completion aspect of the gameplay: what it takes to complete the game and what you GET for completing the game. Unless the completion bonus is story-related, like a bonus ending or something, there's no reason to include story spoilers at all in a review about completing a game and unlocking everything in it.
TheAwesomeDarkNinja Too bad this show lost it's personality a long time ago
oh my God, the nostalgia! this is one of my favorite games of all time!
the music is permanently engrained in my memory.
R.I.P AlphaDream
What!? He finally completed one of the best portable Mario games of all time?! Wait a sec, i need to grab the popcorn!
Carlos Flare No, sorry dude, that’s techically Odyssey (PORTABILITY BOIIIIII)
This is one of my favorite games of all time and one of my first, you did an amazing job Jirard. One of my favs of your videos! Keep it up man.
Wasn't Paper Mario originally intended to be a Mario RPG sequel though?
Owen Byrd
Key word on "intended".
Key word on "on"
Key word on "a"
Key word on "Key word on "Key word on "Key word on "Key word on "Key word on "intended""""""
Flying Omen lol
Wait, you said you had to grind in order to beat the final bosses, yet you had zero deaths? How does that work? Did you know exactly what level you needed to be ahead of time?
I never had a problem with grinding at all in his game. You can avoid every attack in the game with skill, so theoretically, there shouldn't be any mandatory grinding.
I think he means he barley beat the hard bosses or something then started
i think it will be quite hard to beat final boss without any death..you have to trial n error remembering boss's pattern attack
Spoiler alert:
When facing cackletta soul, you have 1 hp and bp on both bros, and she has insane speed. So either you dodge her attacks perfectly, or you grind up enough speed to heal on turn 1.
Maybe I suck at games but in the remake even when I got 7 gold mushrooms or a insane number like that the boss was still challenging
Hah! Have fun completing this again!
Oween I hope it's something worthy of replaying...
Deconstruction JD it is
Because I’m doing it now
Tbh we did get a sequal its the rest of the series everything is a big continuation and its technically the only lore fore the Mario series
And Geno does appear in this game, if only as a puppet to explain one of the minigames.
Love your videos Jirard. This video made me smile because it brought back some fond memories of this game. Keep up the good work my dude!
Thank you so much for playing this game Jirard. This was my childhood game and i played it for countless of hours with multiple play throughs. Even though i'm 18 now i play it to this day. I was so glad to see that you acknowledged the humor the game has and the flushed out character development between the two brothers. That is exactly why i love this game. Because of how much they show the relationship between them and just how quirky and goofy they are. Gah i don't always comment on videos but when i do i go off on a dumb cheesy paragraph. Anyway just keep doing what you're doing Jirard. Thanks a lot
I LITERALLY just bought this game today. Good timing!
Peace Morgan I LITERALLY Did the same thing. Great Timing!
If I stop suggesting that you should review Metal Gear Solid 2, will you review it next week?
Omnicidal Clown the pain. The dog tags.
Guess there's no way to know since you just requested it again.
Vik-killer Didn't hurt to ask.
How about MGS3?
Noah Stark SNAKE EATER!!!!!!
Thank you so much for making a video on my favorite game ever made! Just a perfect GBA classic that can't be topped!
Jirard I'm so happy you're doing GBA games now! These games were my whole childhood and I never hear anyone talk about them. Thank you!
This game is just awesome, combining all the aspects of RPG, LOL writing, and an overall entertaining experience from beginning to end.
"and as any other egotistical villain out there... the world"
M Bison: OF COURSE!!!
I'm glad to finally see a objective look at this game every review I have seen of this game except this one has just talked about why they loved the game and not covering the negatives so it is good to see someone finally pointing them out and good job as always
I thought the Ted gags would get old at first, but they've slowly earned their way into my heart. From one bearded dude to another, don't lose this guy, he's golden!
Oh, Jirard you magnificent man! Fire Emblem and now The M&L series so close to one another? You're after my own heart, y'know?
Taking Alex's question of the day idea-- What would Jirard and Alex's Bros. Moves be?
I honestly miss the spoiler section. Having played thus game I would have loved to hear your commentary on the wonderful spoilery events of this game.
YES! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!
that luigi impression "hell yeah" lol funniest part. keep making videos Jirard (sorry if I spelled his name wrong)
It'd be great to see you continue the Mario and Luigi RPG series! At this point, go in order. Continue on to Partners in Time, Bowser's Inside Story, Dream Team and then Paper Jam! They're all a blast and I hope you enjoy them as much as the fans do!
One of my favourite GBA games. Hilarious dialogue and fun gameplay mixed together to make an unforgettable adventure!
Great vid man, guess I need to binge watch to catch up!
superstar saga was one of my first game and I loved the game when I was 4 and I'm still playing right now in 2017 and I'm so hyped for the remake for the 3ds
RIP AlphaDream...
"Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars is absolutely one of my favorite games of all time; it's the game that taught me how to read-"
Me: Wait, you too!?
This is, no joke, one of my all time favorite games ever made. It's so good and it holds up really well, so much so that I was actually playing this game the other day.
I'm hype for the remakes of this!!!
Paper Mario and M&L games are fun, but I wish Mario RPG would get a true sequel! It's one of my favorite games too!
same, very much so, in fact i hope one day to get a team of indie devs together and create a fanmade sequel that's Free to Play for everyone, bringing in even more characters from the Mario Universe and taking in as much diversity and fun as possible to put into the fan game.
I just had a million dollar idea. Not Mario RPG 2 but Smash RPG! Too many characters/you don't want to play Chrono Cross? No prob, just turn Mario(maybe Luigi as well) into a traveling freedom fighter, teaming up with other characters to do the heavy lifting and then move on to let them mop up. Each main story chapter would be a setting that multiple smash characters came from. Liberally sprinkle in side quest single locations with one off smash characters(Captain Falcon, Captain Olimar, Mr. Game & Watch etc.).
When in doubt, just buy a ton of mushrooms and use the Mush Badge.
I think you should go in order for the series as they tie in together. Plus, it would make sense. I really glad you did a video on this series. It's amazing. It's charming, funny, and brought a complete spin in the whole series that main consoles releases don't. I look forward to more videos from the series.
i remember playing the demo to this at toysRus and being so impressed that i went back a few days later and got it with my birthday money.
money well spent
Perfect timing...
Jirard beat Cackletta without dying? That's crazy! I mean, I personally never grinded, but still, that fight took me so many tries.
The first time I fought Cackaletta It was really hard and I ended up buying 99 1-up supers. But now I don't need to grind in the slightest to EASILY beat her
Not to mention the soundtracks for the bosses and the final boss being badass! Without spoiling it but I LOVE the final boss music both of the variants and listen to them constantly
The Mario and Luigi series is always a fun time. Thanks for showing this lovely game to people and stirring up fond memories Jirard.
Zero Deaths... this is the first i seen him complete without any deaths...
Well....he got at least as close to 100% as you can in this game. There's a boss that, depending on how you beat it, gives 1 of 2 items, so you ALWAYS miss one item in a run. Very minor though, and I don't think this was an "all items" run anyway.
Also vote with the Mario RPG stuff, alternate series and go in order, so Thousand Year Door next.
GRex7777
which boss are you referring to? I don't remember a boss with random drops...
McBehrer it's the piranha plant that eats the bean fruit as I recall, and it's not random, it's determined by what you land the final blow with. either gives pants or a badge.
childhood colors... they make my retina and rods sing to my soul... man I loved this game.
Great stuff jirard! I'm ready for the remake!
How convenient. You made this a while before a remake was announced
Almost too convenient XD
Will you do Superstar Saga DX?
They never remade this game.
Franklin England They will. It's in the 3DS eShop's code.
Phantom Drags please stop... While I would love to see this happwn, it is not 100% confirmed, so please stop spreading rumors that may not be true.
Brett Swope It might as well be. The guy found icons for ever oasis and M&L SS DX. The Ever Oasis icons were legit. That probably means it's gonna get a remake.
it's not rumors its literally in the code and the icon is there too
I'm so happy that this game came to Switch. Now everyone (who has an NSO + Expansion Pack subscription) can play this game!
Man i havn't watched this series in like 3 years. It has changed alot
If you listen to the theme of "jokes end", it's actually no joke
yes my favorite game from the gameboy good memories.
I loved this game as a kid. Going through it again in the remastered version was so nostalgic, it's just as good (or even better) as the original. And the music
Been waiting so long for this ine
It's like he knew!!!
Well it was heavily rumored. Plus Jirard kinda has a special thing with Nintendo. Got some games early, so probably got some insider info.
MasterGameplay fair point
I was wondering if he knew too XD
I've tried to 100% a game it was hard
I have major respect for what you do now
I had Arkham City 98%'d and then something in the Catwoman DLC corrupted my save. So I wonder how he's never ran into anything like that.
Jackson Jack yea
This does happen to him all the time.
Really, really love this game! Thanks for this video
I always used to play this on my ds. A while back i finally finished it on an emulator on my phone. It's one of the few games i went into completely blind and i love it
I played through some of Super Mario RPG legend of the seven stars (fifth one I played)
I beat super saga (it was the first. one I played and it's still my favorite)
I played through part of partners of time. (third one I played)
I beat bowsers inside story (it's the second one I played)
I played only the demo for dream team (4th one...)
I beat paper jam
(was the fourth one I played.)
HECK YEAAA
Dire, Dire, Docs I love your username
Great vid my man!
I know this comment might not get noticed but heck I'm just glad to see someone who loves Mario RPG as much as I do. I got my copy of it when I was in the 6th grade and I loved it and do a run of it at least 2 times in a year whenever my big brother gets the time to visit when he gets time off working overseas. Thanks for doing a completionist run of this game and expressing how much you love mario RPG
Complete any game of the disgaea series. That will be a one way ticket to hell. Believe me jirard.
Is it possible to even 100% a Disgaea game?
*RIP AlphaDream*
Wow I haven't watched his vids in a while and gotta say, missed this channel!
Awesome episode! Made me discover a game I knew nothing about!
Press F to pay respects
Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions was just announced
Update video confirmed
Usually a fan who enjoys and silently watches rarely commenting and thought I'd leave a comment to help out. Always enjoy the videos Jirard! Also cool to now have a face to Ted, used to just hearing you guys poke fun at him on Beard Bros.
I remember this. Great game from my childhood! I even played it again 2 years ago.
