Watch as they expunge all the references to other M&L in this (Pi'illo only, no beanbeans characters, Tas is Mario Kart King Boo'd to not look like Cackletta or any other M&L villains)
Well it's true M&L was the lesser popular of the two, through BIS & DT boosted it (one sold more than 3 millions the other is currently around 2 millions+ or so)
It is true that especially thanks to BiS the ML series has became more popular. Also the PM series isnt as popular as it used to be (because *cough* sticker star *cough*)
Knowing Nintendo, yeah, through on the more positive side peoples would finally stop to mention on how Antasma ressemble Cackletta (imo to me the cackletta ressemblence is the weakest part of Antasma's design)
Exactly...I hate when people compare him to Cackletta....I mean the similarities are there but I didnt compare them to each other..... like when I first saw Antasma's design I was like "he looks cool...I hope he is awesome" and didnt think about the similarity (you have a point there tho.... I still like his design)
A simple trick is to give him the pointy shaped face of his bat form over his other forms and remove the Cackletta's smile for a more human-like one, would give him a new face without altering his design too much and make a small nod to Ghadius who is a nightmare creature with a kind of pointy face too:
SS but with a very slight margin (note that the thing was done in december 2013 and that SS had a head start, so it might be possible that DT has currently surpassed it)
I actually believe/think that dt will be referenced in some way, being a YoL game
Actually what I have seen, paper mario is more popular among the fanbase than ML games (or at least was) so there is that too. I love them both personally
Sticker Star and Super Paper Mario to an extent split the fanbase, but the first two games usually have near universal love.
Mario and Luigi has no bad points, but PIT is seen as the weakest, but still not as low as Sticker Star. Overall, Mario and Luigi has been more consistent and had no bad games to me, but I still prefer Paper Mario. Weird.
Thats true...SPM especially split the fanbase to half
For me Paper Mario games are great but the thing is....the ML games have "more the same quality". They try different things...yet not TOO different I actually dont know which series I prefer. I like them both to be honest
True, Sticker Star did not split the fanbase as bad because most agreed to hate it.
Mario and Luigi is bogged down by tutorials, giant battles, forced stylus controls, gyro controls, mini-games that are repeated like in BIS, not as deep characters, and areas that are not as memorable for me.
I definitely prefer Paper Mario. Super Paper Mario and Thousand-Year Door alone trash all of the Mario and Luigi games for me.
Wait ...Tas was inspired of the Nightmare wwizard. I didnt know this (it is kinda obvious tho)
I am not sure if stickers return tho... xD
Oh also for Rainvainz for me ML series is like an actionpacked saturday morning cartoon while Paper Marios are like a great childrens ) book
Nightmare Wizard and Dracula, they kind of throw other Mario & Luigi villains traits (probably to mislead players into thinking he will be the final boss and not Bowser) but if you remove the traits, he should be a combination of those two.
That's why Antasma should show up in PM, he has actually a book which detail his backstory in DT, so he would work well.
I through he said that because things this time would go different rather than what happened in past (along with foreshadowing a possible changement for Tas in the next game)
Well as i said the japanese interview give me the feel they wanted revamp him (the whole he is too weak, overshadowed by Bowser and is only there for Dreambert) hence why they got rid of him out of the game as fast as they could (the explosion could hint a redesign)
Hmm you have a point there...let just hope that he returns aaaaa I actually have a theory (a game theory *ba dum tish*) that story wise he faked his death and will return stronger than ever
I was thinking the idea of a curse which is broken after they beat the shit out of him, it's a simple way to bullshit a new stronger form that isn't a red herring, give a connection to Bleck and a bit of irony (Bowser dumped him because he was too weak in japanese version but unknowingly, he triggered the events which allowed one of the most powerful villains to rise)
Mario and Luigi is better than Paper Mario in most games. Super Paper Mario is my favourite, but my next favourite Paper Mario takes fourth, after Dream Team and PiT (or was it PiT and then Dream Team? those two are so close in rank it doesn't matter anymore)
EDIT: Apparently I replied to a discussion on the previous page.Welp

It is cool, I did that too. I replied to something way back.
I like PIT, BIS, and DT more than most, but my top two spots go to Super Paper Mario and Thousand-Year Door. Mario and Luigi has more spots in my top 5, but the two Paper Mario games win for me. Mario RPG could have made a great series too.
It is all opinion. I am just glad to have another fan of Partners In Time around here. We need more! ^_^ Go babies, mighty morphin' power babies.
