Gameplay
The gameplay of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga has been updated to match that of more recent Mario & Luigi titles. The graphics of the original title have also been updated to match the series current art style established with Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, but with additional 3D lighting effects.[1] Other gameplay changes include the addition of the Emergency Guard introduced in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, Bros. Attacks and Advanced Bros. Attacks being made separate moves, and overworld moves being selectable from the bottom screen.[1] During battle, the bottom screen displays Mario and Luigi's stats.[1]
A new side mode has been added to the game, titled Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser, a side story set during the events of the main game in which players control Bowser's troops as they search for Bowser. In each stage the player guides a set of eight troops into battle against an enemy force as units automatically attack each other. During battles, players can spend CP (Captain Points) to use certain commands, such as buffing allies, causing a random effect, or cancelling commands from the enemy captain. This portion of the game also features amiibo compatibility.[1]
The game cannot be played in stereoscopic 3D.
