Did you know that in Bowser's Inside Story that in Snack Basket, you can press B when Mario throws Luigi to make him ground pound? It does more damage. I was wondering if you knew that or just forgot when you were doing the attack in the footage.

[@ehx3419]

@@rhymetimeguy7560 I'd expect him to know, since AFAIK it's required for an Excellent. EDIT: Or apparently not...? EDIT 2: He did show it off for the remake, actually. Another noteworthy point is that you can increase the damage dealt (and I think the likelihood of an extra drop) from Smash Eggs in PiT by bouncing up the egg with the babies.

[@rhymetimeguy7560]

@@ehx3419 Yeah, plus in the same game, you can press X and Y with the Fire and Ice flowers to have the Babies throw them. Which allows them to hit flying enemies.

Sephiroth: I will never be a memory M&L:

[@oznelnavnaekal6679]

There is one thing that makes Partners in Time different from the other M&L series. In all the other games a bros/special attack takes away a significant amount of BP, depending on the type of attack you are going to do on your enemy. In PIT however, each special attack must be done with an item (like a fire flower) and it only takes one of those items away. So if you have like 99 fire flowers you can literally use them 99 times instead of a reduced amount if the game also made use of the BP mechanics like in the other RPG’s of M&L.

[@Hyper_Drud]

And then you get multiple Bean Badges and never have to worry about running out ever again.

The only frame drop I’ve ever experienced was once in the final boss when I used chopper bros and I mashed the a button probably as hard as I ever will for a long time, I cannot believe how hard i mashed it, like it’s hard to recreate, but I did so much damage that the game dropped to 30fps for 2 seconds, but apart from that the presentation is extremely smooth.
