New Images, Information, and Footage for Mario and Luigi Brothership

The art style and animations are great. It looks like a fairly interesting world so far too.
Maybe I'm missing something but it looks like even the basic battle commands involve both brothers now? I don't like the idea of needing to watch such long animations and doing multiple button presses for just a jump or hammer attack. As far as I remember from the GBA/DS games, those were always simple to pull off. Hopefully regular battles aren't unnecessarily long.

Next Level Games MUST be somehow related to this game. Credit to all people at Nintendo and it's subsidiaries but no one can do animation like that other than those crazy Canadians.
I pre ordered this game and played all the previous ones. These games are great and this one is really looking great! I feel like Nintendo is pushing out info fast, with that big partner/indie direct and now this already without separate directs. I wonder if this means they're preparing to focus on the successor of the Switch
Going to go against the grain and say that I don't like the art style here. It's too... pasty? I don't know, just doesn't look 'good' to me. Just my opinion, though.
Not watching, but sad to hear it's not shimomura anymore... Hopefully they'll be able to match her! If it's the same team that did origami king and TTYD remake soundtrack, then it will certainly be good!
Omg. They nailed the art style!
This is how I remember the superstar saga box art looking
I'd only played the first two games and half of the third before.
I'm out of country right now and I brought my DSi, 3DS, and the 5 M&L games I haven't beaten in anticipation of this release. Yes, I'll be doing Bowser's Inside Story original and remake.
It's great to see they've nailed the amazing 2D animations in 3D.

I guess it'll add fuel to the fire for people thinking that Nintendo's clearing the board as soon as possible for a potential Switch 2 reveal either this or next month, though I personally lean more towards the latter (an October reveal).
Oh yeah, this is ASW levels of 2D-in-3D animation mastery.
Why do people keep saying this
This is almost certainly from a Japanese studio, I'd be unlikely for Next Level to be involved with. They're not the only ones capable of great animation
This is an insane amount of animation work, right? Like a depth of stylization maybe only recently rivaled by Hi-fi Rush. I gues the had previous iterations to work on, but to translate and upgrade so exceptionally in 3D format is amazing.
New Trailer

Finally the brothership marketing ship has sailed. Man this game looks good
Almost forgot this was coming this year and my excitement is explosive.
Amen
I actually don't mind if they move on from Shimomura's sound, it was starting to become rote and many recent M+L tracks sounded like cut Kingdom Hearts tunes.
Hopefully they still capture the spirit of the series and bring something new.
Gotta agree here. The fact that the Mario and Luigi games were continuing the musical lineage that started with Super Mario RPG is a big part of what made them special, at least to me.
Like listen to this. It's so amazing! Gonna wait to hear more of the OST before I make a final judgement, though.

Besides this the game looks downright incredible, so it probably won't be enough to sour the experience for me.
The final boss music from Bowser's Inside Story is one of Shimomura's best tracks and I won't be convinced otherwise.

The music excerpt in that new trailer sound really good and the continuation we hear for a second at the very end sounds even better. Like if I'm hearing this as I'm entering a town I'm not thinking "damn wish this other composer was here", I'm just enjoying the music you know.
If it's not Yoko it's probably one of the thirty extremely talented composers from the Nintendo sound team, it's all good.

I honestly argue the music is better here than what we heard previously(which was also good). And it's pretty catchy here too.
I don't think this will be part of the hands-on impressions dropping tomorrow, but soon. Soon enough. I feel like this might review better than any previous entry. Not that that matters but a hunch
wait does this game have full 3d camera at least in some parts?
some of those screenshots where the camera is directly behind Mario & Luigi make me feel like that might be a possibility
would surprise me considering Mario & Luigi games have always been a fixed perspective but would be coo

Not sure about the characters, but we do have a couple of enemies that aren't cord related.
there's been plant type baddies shown already, one as a boss at the end of the reveal trailer even
not worried about no shimomura
her work is great but so are like a hundred other equally talented artists
