Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time

[mrslackalack]

I want to buy this game or ask for it for Christmas. Any thoughts or reviewas for someone that has this game?

Haven't played it yet, but from what I read it's very similar to Superstar Saga (which, obviously, is a very good thing)

Huge fan of the Paper Mario games and SS, probably gonna pick it up Monday

I seen that most rate it from a 9 to a 10.

I haven't heard anything about this. Can someone describe it for me?

I'll just steal something from the IGNDS review:

"Partners in Time essentially doubles up what was created in Superstar Saga on the Game Boy Advance. The Nintendo DS adventure features twice the screens and twice the playable characters, which takes the plumbers on another Save the Princess quest…but this time in an adventure that spans both the present and past. The whole time traveling element is just a plot vehicle to pair up the more traditional adult Mario and Luigi characters with their baby counterparts, something that's admittedly been done in an unofficial way in games like Mario Tennis or Mario Kart: Double Dash but nothing so cohesive as a story that brings them all together. The time traveling does give ample opportunity for Nintendo to poke around its other franchises for some amusing and clever nods. There are some missed opportunities for cool time traveling paradoxes (who wouldn't want to affect the future by altering the past?) but the writers stick to the comedy instead of the science and the adventure definitely benefits from this focus."

Damn. The first Mario and Luigi was awesome.

Too bad I have no intention of buying a DS.
