Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga is a role-playing video game developed by AlphaDream and published by Nintendo for the Game Boy Advance in 2003. It was re-released for the Wii U's Virtual Console in 2014, and remade for the Nintendo 3DS as Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions in 2017. In the game, Mario and Luigi combat Cackletta and Fawful, who stole Princess Peach's voice after adopting the guise of an ambassador from the Beanbean Kingdom.
The player controls Mario and Luigi simultaneously; being a role-playing game, it centers on a battle system different from that of traditional games of the genre, with emphasis on timing and more elaborate attacks. The game is whimsical in tone, with various in-game jokes and comical references to the heritage of the Mario series. The game is believed to be inspired from Paper Mario. Created by Shigeru Miyamoto, Tetsuo Mizuno, and Satoru Iwata, the game was announced at E3 2003, later releasing the same year.
Superstar Saga was critically acclaimed, with reviewers praising the game's writing and theme, and criticism and mixed opinions on gameplay and the top-down perspective respectively. Critics listed the game among the best games on the Game Boy Advance, and was labeled as Player's Choice. The remake was released in 2017; alongside amiibo functionality, updated graphics and music, and other improvements, it also features a new storyline titled Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser.
