Home > Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga is Being Remade for 3DS
Originally published on Nintendo Castle.
During Nintendo's Treehouse Live presentation following the E3 direct, two new 3DS games were revealed. The first was a remake of Metroid II in the form of Metroid Samus Returns. The second was a remake of the first Mario & Luigi game for GBA, Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga. The 3DS remake will be called Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions (we know, the name is a mouthful). The Bowser's Minions mode of the game retells the original version from a different perspective: Bowser's team of baddies. The game is essentially two adventures in one and will launch exclusively on 3DS this October 6.
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions will also feature amiibo support. Two new amiibo will launch for the game, a Goomba amiibo and a Koopa Troopa amiibo. Superstar Saga was one of my favorite GBA games and the game that introduced me to the Mario & Luigi series, so it's got a special place in my heart. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing it revived on the 3DS and hope that it can live up to its name!
