Sidequests

Hooskin Trading Quest

In Wakeport during Mario and Luigi's travels, the player may encounter a male Hooskin wanting to propose to nearby female, but is lacking the proper proposal gift. Upon Mario and Luigi agreeing to help, they are given a plush Zeekeeper to use in order to get something better to propose with, initiating a brief trading sidequest.

Mario and Luigi first trade the plush Zeekeeper for a rare fruit with a Shelltop in the nearby item shop, afterwards swapping it for a Yoshi egg with a Red Yoshi in the hotel district, which they then swap for a photo of Peach with a Toad by the tour centre, which they then swap for the Book of Ruins with a Brock researcher to the north of the Toad, which they then swap for a photo of Queen Bean with a Bean in the gear shop, which they then swap for a lost camera with a Bean in one of the buildings in the hotel district, which they then give to a Toad near the rooftops of the hotel district in exchange for info about a bird burying something between the nearby umbrella and fountain, which then turns out to be upon the Bros. digging it out, a Pi'illo ring which Mario and Luigi hand to the Hooskin for him to then propose with, the female accepting after a short cutscene which ends with the Bros. being rewarded greatly with a Sap Hammer, Heart Bean DX, some Rally Wear, and a 1-UP Mushroom, and if the player talks to him afterwards, he'll give the Bros. an idea of where to go next in Wakeport.

Kylie Koopa's Photo Puzzles

During Mario and Luigi's travels in Wakeport, they come across Kylie Koopa upon entering a house, and discover she's the guidebook writer for the island. She offers some work for them, involving them finding camera blocks around the island, bringing them back here and deciphering them. Each shot can be taken back and played as three of the same photo puzzles of differing levels, with each higher level, the photo covers more of the scene, and the games give the player more time to do the puzzle. The Level 1 reward is 100 coins with a time limit of 3 minutes, the Level 2 reward is 300 coins with a time limit of 4 minutes. The level 3 reward is a DX Bean of varying stat with a time limit of 6 minutes.

Mad Skillathon

Upon Mario and Luigi's first visit to Wakeport, they may come across a Shelltop on a stand, apparently hosting an event known as the Mad Skillathon, a contest for those with skills, with rewards included. Mario and Luigi, after a short conversation, decide to take part using their Bros. Attacks, as the Shelltop counted those as skills. The Mad Skillathon is much like in Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story in the sense that it's a Bros. Attack endurance game. After getting S rank in all seven challenges, the player is awarded with the Pro Wear.

These are the list of rewards gained from hitting the B, A or S rank scores, them respectively being 200 for B, 500 for A and 800 for S.

Battle Broque Madame

Upon Mario and Luigi's first visit to Driftwood Shore, they meet Broque Madame on a stand, who suggests the idea of the Bros. entering her dreams due to her boredom at her shop and her crave for excitement. This is much like the Mad Skillathon, however is the Luiginary Attack version for it.

These are the list of rewards gained from hitting the B, A or S rank scores, them respectively being 200 for B, 500 for A and 800 for S. After getting S rank in all four challenges, the player is awarded with the Supreme Boots.

Differences from other Mario & Luigi games

• Unlike the other Mario & Luigi games, Mario and Luigi don't let out their battle cries of "Let's-a-go!" and "Okey-dokey!" respectively when starting a battle.
• This is the first time in the series that Peach's Castle isn't the tutorial level.
• This is the first time in the series that the tutorial battle does not feature Bowser.
• This is the first time in the series that has Bowser as a main antagonist.
• Unlike the first three installments, Lakitu does not appear in the Level Up system.
• The art style in this game changed. This is the first game in the Mario & Luigi series to depict the letters on Mario and Luigi's caps as red and green, respectively, instead of black, and to have Luigi's pants reach his shoes, hiding his socks.
• This is the first time in the series Bowser kidnaps Peach as the final boss.
• This is the first time in the series that Bowser is consciously the final boss.
• This is the first Mario & Luigi game that Fawful does not make an appearance. Although there is an NPC that says one of his main quotes if talked to. Fawful's absence may be due to his defeat after Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story.
• This is the first Mario & Luigi game where the Stache stat doesn't go up during level ups; instead it has to be upped with the roulette system or Stache Beans.
• This is the first Mario & Luigi game that Bowser Jr. actually makes an appearance.

Demo

On the day of the game's release in North America, a demo of the game was also released on the Nintendo eShop, making this the first strictly Mario game to have a publicly released demo for download. It uses 1,010 blocks when downloaded, and offers twelve uses. The demo is identical to the E3 demo, having the same three options for gameplay:

• The Real World - the player can explore a segment of Mushrise Park.
• The Dream World - the player can explore Dreamy Pi'illo Castle.
• Boss Battle - the player is given the option of either facing Grobot in the real world or Bowser and Antasma in the Dream World.

References to other games

• Super Mario Bros.: A remix of this game's main theme is heard while a tutorial is been displayed.
• Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island: Part of Driftwood Shore's theme is a remix of this game's title screen music. Bandits originated from this game, too.
• Super Mario 64: One counter-attack Giant Luigi uses against Giant Bowser involves Luigi grabbing him by the tail and spinning him around before launching him off the platform, much like in the Bowser battles of Super Mario 64.
• Paper Mario: In the third and final battle against Kamek in Dreamy Neo Bowser Castle, he will create three different colored clones of himself: red, green and white. The green clone can raise defense like Green Magikoopas and the white clone can heal its allies like White Magikoopas.
• Luigi's Mansion / Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon: One of the messages from Luigi displayed in Dream's Deep is "I fight ghosts!"
• Super Mario Sunshine: Bowser Jr. uses his paintbrush as an attack.
• Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga: Popple and other Beanish characters appear in this game. Part of Driftwood Shore's theme is a remix of Oho Oasis. The way the Mario Bros. get to Big Massif's Hooraws by having to go through their own puzzle-filled sections in Dreamy Wakeport is similar to how the the Koopalings in Bowser's Castle were reached in the first game. When fighting Bowser Jr., he may summon two Shy Guys to carry a fiery rope that the brothers have to jump over to dodge in the same manner as the Border Bros. in Superstar Saga. In this game, Somnom Woods serves as the penultimate area after collecting all the vital pieces of the Ultibed, just like how Joke's End was after collecting all the pieces of the Beanstar.
• Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time: The Bros. Ball attack from this game returns. Also, Bowser resembles Shrowser when possessed by Antasma. Kylie Koopa also reappears along with a picture of a Shroob.
• Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story: The badges are similar to the ones from this game. Starlow, Broque Monsieur, Broque Madame, Broggy, Private Goomp, Corporal Paraplonk, and Sergeant Guy return as well. Bowser's theme is reused. The boss theme is a heavily remixed version of this game's. The boxart is also similar to the one from this game. The Banzai Bill Blaster re-appears as well as a prop during the battlle with Private Goomp, Corporal Paraplonk and Sergeant Guy. In the final battle, before Bowser becomes Dreamy Bowser, he inhales the fragments of the shattered Dream Stone using the inhaling power he received in this game. The Earthwake battle plays out the same as the Tower of Yikk battle. Bowser before his Giant Battle also states he invented transforming into a giant.
• New Super Mario Bros. Wii: Kamek is disguised as Princess Peach again.
• Super Mario 3D Land: Grand Tail Goombas (known in this game as Big Tail Goombas) appears in the Neo Bowser Castle dream world.
• New Super Mario Bros. U: Bombs very similar to the ones used by Lemmy Koopa in this game appear in the Bomb Derby attack.
• The Legend of Zelda series: One of the Luiginoid move is called the "Hookshot", which is executed while Luiginoids are in a ball state. This is likely a reference to the item of the same name.

Reception

The game was positively received. Both Gamespot and IGN gave the game an 8 which is the lowest review in the series by both of them. The reasons for this were that IGN believed that the overworld was less apealing than the Dream World and that the game's intro was sluggish and filled with too many tutorials. GameXplain on the other hand believes that the game is fun, despite its minor flaws, and that it lives up to the other installments in the series; the game was given 4 1/2 stars out of 5.
