One of my favourite DS games gets a remake, now with a whole new story about Bowser's minions. I'm probably up for this.

I never managed to finish Candy Crush Saga but a Mario crossover might hold my attention for longer. Exciting stuff, either way.

Gaming's second worst kept secret. Happy to leave this one on the store shelf, though - I've got the original on the Wii U and have stalled badly. All I need to do is wait long enough until the guilt gets too high and I play it to pieces.

I didn't know about this! Clearly I follow the right people.

I heard a rumour aaaages ago but I'd all but forgotten it until this popped up.

I didn't know this was a thing! I've not actually played this one so I'm keen for jumping on board. It might persuade me to then get to playing my unopened copies of the rest of the series...

It's been mentioned a few times on NintendoLife before today... so I've had time to weigh up whether I want it.

After watching a bit more of the Minions mode, it actually looks quite bad and dull. Might be up for the story, but if I buy this, it'll be to experience my second-favourite Mario RPG afresh.

Put this into my 3DS for the first time today. I'd forgotten quite how funny it is. It's really very funny. Fawful does feel a little more played out than he did, after two/three games of his Japlish shtick, but especially the Luigi-bashing is top-notch. And it all feels very nice and comforting, like a familiar pair of slightly worn slippers. Not sure about the changed visual style (if the new style then why no 3D? ), but that's my only gripe and it's a small one. Can't wait to get stuck in further.
