Mario & Luigi: Brothership is the first brand new Mario & Luigi game since Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam in 2015. I havent been this excited for a new game in a long, long time so lets see how good it actually is! I love every Mario & Luigi game, including Superstar Saga, Partners in Time, Bowsers Inside Story, Dream Team, Paper Jam, Bowsers Minions, and Bowser Jr.s Journey. Join me as we fight all bosses in Mario & Luigi: Brothership for Nintendo Switch and see the ending of the game. In this episode, we collect everybodys bonds.

New Super Mario Bros. 3DS is a mod for New Super Mario Bros. 2 created by @brewnick. Theres a lot of super creative levels here and I really enjoyed the mod overall. Some baffling design choices kept me from finishing the full game, but I still recommend giving it a shot if you like more experiemental level design like youd find in Super Mario Maker.
You may have seen mods like Newer Super Mario Bros. Wii, Cloudy Super Mario Bros. U 2, Marios Final Adventure, or Super Mario Bros. Next in the past! Similar to those, this is a 2D Mario hack that adds a bunch of new levels!

Kirby and the Forgotten Land is the first 3D platformer in the Kirby series. In 2025, DLC for the Nintendo Switch 2 version of the game called Star-Crossed World was released. There have been lots of Kirby games in the past such as Planet Robobot, Star Allies, Extra Epic Yarn, and Triple Deluxe. But this is the first one that Im giving the light of day. Is it as good as everyone says? Lets find out!
