THIS the Shroobs are terrifying and could corrupt Mushroom Kingdom species in a parasitic non-mind controllable way.

Fun fact: most people think that the Yoshi’s Island theme from Partners in Time is original to this game. It’s actually not, you just gotta wait a bit on the title screen of the original Yoshi’s Island.

Or like... boot up the game again after finishing it once.

Around World 6, or finishing the game, you don't have to wait to hear the Title Screen music to play. It comes up automatically in the title screen.

[@BodySprayMan]

Besides how kind of dark and dreary it got at points, this game also has some of the weirdest and got past the censors moments in a Mario game ever. I mean, that Wiggler enemy was drinking Toad lifeforce that is being converted into fuel within its belly. And the Shroobs have stuck a straw up its ass in order to get the fuel out of it. It's really weird when you think about it. ...also, Mario and friends get shat out of that evil Yoshi's butt when they escape.

[@AndrevusWhitetail]

As a child, that plot completely blew my mind and I loved stuff like that ever since. Also, the Thwomp Volcano background music is mega fire, and for me it's a memorable zone because it's one of the few places that doesn't have much Shroob corruption, yet it's still dangerous like a jungle/ancient civilization kinda deal.

[@roflmywaffles1313]

Partners in Time was actually the first Mario & Luigi game I played, so from that perspective, I mainly have positive feelings with this game. When not compared as a sequel, I think it's just a solid and creative game! I remember being excited for boss fights and being excited to see what would happen to certain characters throughout the game. But the plot does raise a few questions, namely... am I to believe that if time travel never existed, the Mario Bros. would have died as babies? Either way, thanks for giving the game a look, AntDude! You're right; this game IS often overlooked, so it's nice to see more people talking about it. =)

Landis. But think about it. If the Shroobs from the past somehow killed the baby Mario Bros. & other young characters from the past, shouldn't the adult versions in the future not been around?

[@heavydonkeykong5190]

What if a potential remake were to have a "part 2" where the Shroob Princess survives and escapes to the present, and begins trying to corrupt other characters with the Mushrooms? The fight with the possessed Bowser could come at the end of that part rather than right after the final battle in the past. I'm not entirely sure how that would end up working, but it's an idea that popped into my mind.

As much as an underrated gem (especially by TheTopTens) as Partners in Time is, the only real fault it has is that while it does have a story so amazingly atmospheric all hell broke loose, some characters can be out of character. Princess Peach (both the adult and baby versions) were annoying because they were damsels in distress and even Adult Luigi, one of my favourite characters in the franchise had his out of character moments here like when he scared the Mario Bros. by raging at them when they (along with Adult Mario) landed down the Gritzy Caverns (Gritzy is part of why PIT deserves much better). I know it’s once in a while and made for comedy, but still!

[@Popcultureguy3000]

Healmore The saddest part is we’ll never get a Mario & Luigi game with Wario and his Wario Land context sensitive invulnerability powers like being set on fire and burning everything he runs into, getting a head so swollen from bee sting allergies that it freaking floats above the stage until it hits the ceiling and leaks out air, becoming a *FREAKING* *ZOMBIE* being flattened like a pancake allowing him to slowly flutter down long crevices with tiny openings into caves, etc., etc. They could have even added Waluigi and given him sports attacks, maybe even have him face off against one of Wario Land’s few reoccurring bosses, the sports rabbit.

[@newageBoundhippie]

the real saddest part is that one of their best games never left Japan...Tomato Adventure was a fun & hilarious RPG that actually led to them making Superstar Saga, and the only way to play it outside Japan is either track down an import copy or download the ROM for a GBA emulator :/ also why did we get a crossover with Paper Mario ( which from what I've been hearing shares some of the same story & character issues that the awful last 2 Paper Mario games have ) and a random remake of Bowser's Inside Story that feels more like a slightly better looking remaster than a remake instead of another 4 character entry with the other 2 being either Wario & Waluigi or Peach & Daisy?

[@heavydonkeykong5190]

Paper Jam is one of my favorites in terms of gameplay. My only real problem with it was I thought the story didn't utilize the concept to its full potential. I wish we had gotten more Paper Mario characters and bosses to give it even more of a crossover feel. I love all of the games, but I personally think Superstar Saga is the "weakest" just because I feel that the others built upon it. Dream Team is probably my favorite overall I think, but I feel like the quality of the series is fairly consistent for the most part.

[@BrerOswald]

Paper Jam is straight up mediocre. Few M&L fans like it.

[@woobgamer5210]

Paper Jam is a god awful game with little charm, and so many glitches that it would make Sonic Boom surprised. PiT is definitely not the worst. and... ngl, Dream Team was just.. something.

There's 2 reasons why I love this game so much: it was my first Mario and Luigi game, and the humor is just spot on. I don't think I laughed harder at any other game when I was 13 than this one. And the babies are just too cute for words

[@hobbs678]

Oh man, way to miss the single most interesting thing about this game: it supports the DS rumble pak. If you want to talk about Alpha Dream forcing in DS special features... Rumble support is THE pinnacle on the console.

[@FarCryfanLove]

It’s actually interesting to know that we continue the Mario and Luigi Series from Baby Mario and Luigi’s perspectives you find this out in Bowsers Inside Story when entering The freezer in Bowser’s Castle in which you find the Shroobs again.

[@pj1343]

I don't really think the hidden Shroob fight properly indicated that the Mario Bros in BiS are the baby bros from PiT. I think it was more so referring to when the adult bros teamed up with their younger selves to combat the Shroobs. In other words, the Mario Bros in later games were not the babies continuing the series.

[@KakuEpsilon]

Knowing what I know about Miyamoto, I bet he's the one who established that quota of new form of bowser to fight.

[@LBlueEagle]

I am that one person that wanted to play as Baby Luigi. Thank You Mr.dude for letting the world know.

[@Walkman05YT]

Didint have a remake called “Mario and Luigi Partners in Time + Baby Bowser’s Pilot?”

[@s23charlie]

Walkman05 that’s a fan concept for a remake

[@OriginalGameteer]

A Baby Bowser subplot could've been pretty cool Thought there's a lack of notable bowser aligned characters at that time period (it's just baby bowser and kamek)

[@s23charlie]

Original Gameteer I once came up with a concept for a side mode about fawful gathering parts from the future for his return in Bowsers Inside Story

[@amylee9092]

1:56 If you were able would you go change the past and a faux pas with one last chance? And I might know all of our future, but then you'd still control the past. Only you know if you'll be together. Only you know if we shall last. Cause every night I will save your life, and every night I will be with you, cause every night I still lay awake and I dream of an absolution. Wrong franchise I know, but every time I think of video game time travel that song pops into my head. The soundtrack was literally the only good thing from Sonic 06, and any opportunity to quote Silver's theme is good.

[@shawnfields2369]

@Zachary Erickson Same here. But, don't forget, dude. He's not real, and he can't hurt you. But, he's also surprisingly adorable, with the little stache, and the coiffed baby hair. But, his attacks hurt like a mother's. But remember, he can't hurt you. So, give us a remake of Partners In Time already, Nintendo!

[@shawnfields2369]

@Zachary Erickson Fair enough, dude. Sigh... but, I hope you're wrong. There's a new Paper Mario game, so maybe we'll get the remake someday? Stranger things have happened before. You never know...

[@lolwhat5622]

I don’t know why partners in time is so underrated It’s legit my favourite game in the series, second place is bowsers inside story

[@joey_vevo3230]

I really panicked cause the uk has a different mothers day and thought i forgot

[@alliesangalli1757]

The gameplay criticisms are all very accurate, which I think adds to the story being what makes this game stand out. It's not a dark game overall. It's a silly game with a lot of surprisingly dark elements. It's still a funny Mario game with goofy enemies, but it also has you travel through multiple ghost towns where the toads were either killed or abducted to have their life force drained. That juxtaposition always made this game stand out for me.

[@immortalsun]

Partners in Time is great, but it’s so short. When I replayed it recently, I was surprised how soon it ended. It’s also the most linear Mario & Luigi game. But I think it does really well at puzzles and battling, even though it lacks a BP system.

[@guymee]

This was my first Mario RPG and loved it to death. I like the atmosphere and the color palette, and to this day, the Bros items like the Koopa shell with 4 different inputs is really fun to do. I know it's minority opinion but I enjoyed it slightly more than Superstar Saga or even the original Mario RPG, and it's DEFINITELY better than the last 2 Paper Mario games for example.

[@the-random-phan]

I remember liking this game a lot as a kid, I played several times and I remember really enjoying everything this had to offer despite the “darkness” of the game! Listening to your review just make my brain go full child mode and insist that that game was amazing anyway! But more seriously, I realize that the nostalgia factor plays a big part in me liking the game, you’re pointing out things that I would have never thought to question as a kid

[@keirjarvie6998]

I don’t know about you, but I feel that the Shroobs are in very similar to the Daleks from Doctor Who. They are a race of aliens that hate everything else in the universe and sees them as impure and continuously seek universal. Plus, they also have a battle cry that consists of a word. For the Daleks, it’s “EXTERMINATE”. For the Shroobs, it’s “DESTROY”. So the time hole loading screen ain’t the only Doctor Who reference in Mario and Luigi Partners in Time.

[@someshmuck8603]

Damn Partners in Time is one of my favorite games and it did deserve a remake. Although this is the one to leave a lot of holes open in the timeline, Fawful being the reason.

No it didnt.

@Kanashimi I pity the fool.

[@burningadri6775]

[@IanRulzU]

Wow didn't think this comment would get replies, (spoiler) if you notice in Bowser's inside story, the Mario and Luigi in that game are the babies from partners in time confirmed during the shroob battle in Bowser's inside story, but Fawful was in the adult world of peach's castle down in the sewers in partners in time

Imagine if the baby Mario bros just straight up died or got brain damage or something, and the entire rest of the series the effects of what happened to the babies made things all crazy like some insane butterfly effect. I have know idea what made me think of this.

So in the DS's early years the touch screen was underused, and when the Wii U started, the gamepad was overused. Wow.

That so called "Water" was Baby tears. They find out that the shroobs are weak to baby tears. Also that juice... was life force.

[@Dafaillord]

@DarkCoreX uhm what? elaborate please? Cause you mostly hear bowser inside story or the first one more then this.

[@Dafaillord]

@DarkCoreX Ah i see. I understand how it can work like that. I didn't know that it got so much more attention now then before because of it not having a Remake. You can call me a fanboy but i became a fan of this one because of how it resonated with me. i played bowser inside and dream team. But partners in time was the one i would play multiple times over because of the reasons i mentioned before. That one was more memorable to me. This was before the remake's came. Meaby some nostalgia on my part but it is what it is. But which one is your favorite then?

[@supercyclone8342]

Superstars Saga was my first Mario game period, so I was glad to see it hold up so well when not looked at through nostalgia glasses. This however, hurt. My second Mario and Luigi game that I always wanted as a kid, but didn't play until a few years ago on virtual console. I love this game, but I have to agree with most of the criticism. It's darker, harder, and quiet memorable (to me at least), but it just doesn't hold up in retrospect (especially how dragged out a lot of it is).

[@Iceking-uj6pq]
