The -Other- Mario RPG Series | Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga Retrospective - ScionVyse

[@marche800]

The thing about Cackletta Soul is tha tit is actually possible to raise one of the bros speed high enough that they act beforr Cackletta, you're just unlikely to know this the first time.

[@leonmystique9372]

Which is sadly the reason why the speed of Cackletta’s soul got nerfed. In the original, you were supposed to survive the 1st attack skillfully While in the remake, they basically reduced the difficulty albeit ever so slightly.

[@孫其暐]

22:16 The funny thing is, your wish was already granted, aside from the visually obvious State build difference, the Bros do have a very minor differences that wasn't state anywhere in the game. Mario does more damage with Jump attack on enemies; While Luigi does more damage with Hammer attack. And this little quirk was carried to the future game as well. This is something you really wouldn't notice unless you purposely raise both bro's atk equally and then testing on enemies.

[@CesarTorres61296]

THIS IS A THING???

[@1DAR26]

I noticed this right now while playing on the Switch.

[@CalM004]

Luigi also has a range of damage he can do with his hammer, akin to the hammers in SMRPG. He doesn't always do more damage than mario but he can if he rolls high enough

[@devonm042690]

In my opinion, Superstar Saga's main form of replayability is in its super high skill ceiling. Knowing enough to never be at risk of getting a Game Over is one thing, but I wonder how many people can play through this game without taking damage, without using stuff like Great Force, Mush Power, or stat buffs (both permanent and temporary)

[@SMCwasTaken]

Imo Superstar Saga is better than BIS IDC what anyone says UwU 💅🏽💅🏽😬

[@tonymitsu]

It's super fun to make a low-level run, too, going only through the necessary battles. But at any rate, I find it weird to go through a game a second time right after finishing it, since your memories of the game are still very fresh, which takes a lot of that rediscovery effect away. I'd wait at least a few months

[@K-Flo10]

I never used stat buffs. I played the whole game just by leveling up normally. I didn’t even know there were things to boost your stats. I mean I was a kid tho. I thought leveling up was the only way you could beat Cackletta, so I grinded hours upon hours into that game

[@Mythicalreign22]

The SSS+ mod by JDaster is a great way to play. Rebalances items, makes combat more difficult and nerfs the OP badges and special items like Mush Power/Great Force.

[@sethfeldpausch4337]

@@SMCwasTaken I'll do you one better: it's better than TTYD!

[@Hugonche29]

22:18 they did, actually! Mario's jump tends to naturally hit stronger while Luigi's hammer has much more variance on its damage (but is stronger on average). On defense, Luigi's jump is floattier but he also pulls his hammer up slower and can't hold it up as long as Mario can. If you're not aware of it, it's barely noticeable, but it's actually there and can come into play, especially on defense. That mechanic stayed a bit in partners in time but completely disappeared after that.

[@Reinoiro]

Normalize putting Cackletta's theme over big rants i swear it's so good

[@CreepersStrangeWorld]

“Sorry for the ad, let’s get on with the video” KZbin then instantly gives me an ad

[@ajbXYZcool]

For me, as a young gamer, I never felt the need to look up how to use Advanced Bros Attacks. If you notice, the branching point to the Advanced form of an attack has one of the brothers have an.! over their head. Press that brothers button to access the new move. From there you just need to learn the new action command like the first one - after the first time, the exclamation point turns into a regular action command prompt. Just needed my careful eye to look out for and respond to it in time.

[@halfyou]

what!!!! does this happen even on level 3? literally never noticed and I played this game for the first time within the past year 💀

[@ajbXYZcool]

@@halfyou Generally, if I recall, you more easily unlock Advance moves when you're doing the higher difficulty level for the Bros Moves, but once the Bros had their little chat, you can do the Advance moves at whichever difficulty you prefer.

@breadandcircuses8127When only half of them are good, that’s kinda hard to argue. The first ones are pretty peak tho

[@Doxsein]

I agree with the final boss second phase, where you start at 1hp. I love it, but the allow another second for the player to understand how to dodge the move. 44:31-4:32 of the video, where the flames appear and pass thru the bros before starting the control of the action commands is a better design.

[@wozthescott2804]

One of my favorite games ever and I absolutely ADORE it. This was my first gba game and I still return to it every few years. Still the best M&L game imo

[@Hack_Man_VII]

I accidentally left my Gameboy color in my trunks pocket before jumping intoy grandparents pool. I didn't realize it was in there until after I got out. It somehow survived, and I was playing it again the next day.

[@MOORE4U2]

I dropped a couple of Game Boy games in my grandparents' driveway when I was six. Four months later, we found them in that same driveway. The labels were drained of all color besides blue, but they still functioned perfectly fine.

[@TeltStory]

I think the intention with the final cackletta fight was to make you feel like a superstar for braving it all... if you happen to get it in one go. Cackletta does comment on how there's no need for old superstars before then, so that led me to conclude that combined with the one 1hp, you were supposed to feel amazing for getting it right.

[@snailgirl6]

I don't know how KZbin's algorithm knew I'd like your long documentaries, but here I am! I've been listening to most of your other documentaries and I like your writing, voice, and unique perspectives. I hope one day your channel gets bigger and better... *subs and likes*

[@nicholasharlan6504]

Lack of replay? Becoming so good at the moves and knowing enemy attacks, at least for me, heightens the replay. I’m not bumbling in the dark, mastery of mechanics like these just feel good. It’s one of my most replayed games ever. Also as a side note, the advance moves do alert you mid battle to their existence. You’ve got to pay close attention to the bros.

[@JezElectro13]

40:26 let's look at this the other way: Mario and Luigi are unbeatably THE richest Mushroom Kingdom citizens.

[@Ale-dd3ek]

[@r.a.miller9385]

Glad to see you covering this game and series!

[@hojugames8340]

I love this game. I played it when it was new and remember a few difficulty spikes that took a while to overcome. Replayed it on NSO recently and beat most bosses in a max of two turns. Once you know the tricks, it does negate most difficulty but I still have a blast playing it. Something I wanted to point out is switching actions and position is tedious, especially late game but if you hug walls and jump with the front brother you can still do a standard jump with the brother in the back despite having a different action selected. Not perfect but it does help negate switching a lot at least. Hugging the wall may not be required, may be dependent on the front brother jumping now that I think about it but whatever the proper trigger, it does work. I used it a lot by the time I had Hand Actions. Also pressing L and R together resets actions back to Jump. Great video. Super happy to see you covering it. Can't wait to see the other games. Partners in Time is still my favorite, mainly for it's battle system despite one change I don't like as much. All Mario RPG games are some of my favorite games in general. Love your videos.

[@MrKlausbaudelaire]

If there was one game that friggin' MADE MY CHILDHOOD was Superstar Saga on GBA. I remember how many hours I spent in this game, how much I enjoyed it's wacky designs and battle mechanics, how its style even affected my drawing style for HALF A DECADE if not more! And how grateful I was years later at the perfect remake we had.

[@1DAR26]

If you don't mind me asking, what's the difference between the original and the remake? Also, is there still a way to get ahold of the remake?

[@darkeneddaylight5422]

This deserves way more views than it has, your reviews are great and I love the way you word them.

[@Sulidaire]

I never found the skill and brother swapping tedious. It came down to muscle memory for me and using the "L+R" reset. Same with the final Cackletta fight. While difficult, I didnt fret much because I had some nuts to compensate for the lack of HP at the start of the second phase. Surviving the second phase's first attack was also intuitive for me as I had grown used to dodging and countering. Now, my experience is not indicative of how well the game implemented its difficulty and came down to my muscle memory as a young gamer.

[@Bellitchi]

Wanted to mention, the 3ds games don’t really use 3d models. Only paper jam really uses them a bunch. The other 3 3ds games use sprites. It’s all sprites. They’re just really good looking sprites. I was a little confused by what you meant by that 😭

[@ahmedhasan4966]

Good video but to be honest problem like switching the bro's moves in the open world are fixed in the remake and the remake does give you a demo of how to do the Bros attack including the advance bros attack and there are other improvement s. Honestly I would recommend to try out the remake.

[@thehussiteking]

Great video! Superstar Saga was either my first RPG or my second (after Super Mario RPG) so it's super nostalgic for me. But the difficulty really is unbalanced and nowadays I find the ability swapping to be the biggest nuisance of the game. It's really a hassle. If the GBA just had two more buttons, the game would be much better. (The remake fixes this issue but I'm not the biggest fan of it) The music, sprites, and overall charm are the best in the series IMO. Fawful's one of my favorite characters in any RPG lol. Funny story about my first time with the game. For context I got the game when I barely had any knowledge of the Mario series since I was like 5 when I got it. Anyway, I thought that Rookie was Bowser's little brother lol. I couldn't read that well and never got far in the game at that age, so for years (until I was around 10) I just assumed Bowser had a little brother named Rookie who never appeared again

[@leargamma4912]

A hassle? What you don't have the patience to press a button twice? What kind of whining drama queen are you? I'm sorry if that sounded harsh and yes, even mean, but for the love of God, all these nitpicks being treated like actual problems is what's wrong. There's nothing wrong with a game having a system where you can cycle through something. It's a whole lot better than going into the pause menu, picking what you want on each brother, and then leaving the menu to finally execute commands. This is all very insane to me because I never had a problem with this. If you do, then you probably have issues with breathing taking up too much of your precious time.

[@fiddlestickjones]

Luigi rocks the peach dress, no wonder they got fooled

[@mitch_universe4058]

I can’t wait for you to get to bowser’s inside story! My second favorite Mario RPG aside from TTYD, and the soundtrack is amazing!

[@UnicornStorm]

I guess a possible hard mode could be more of a precision mode, in where the attack and defense timing is more tight, with maybe even worse effects for missed action commands, but also higher damage bonus for nailing the action commands

[@michaelr3077]

If you had enough speed stats you could ignore cackletta soul's attacks at the start. You want to go in underleveled that's on you.

[@Magma_dude16]

Don’t you need your speed to be at 120 to attack Cakletta first? And in the remake, don’t you need your speed at 80?

[@sam-willyfichor6679]

Bro lvl 40 you call it underleveled?😂😂

[@arandomdudeontheinternet9310]

The ability management is way better in the 3ds version due to the fact that all the abilities are on the bottom screen and you just need to touch them to select the one you want (also the 3ds version has 2d sprites I don't know where you've heard the 3d part)

[@ScionVyse]

The 3D thing was my mistake. I've never played really any of these games, only seen them from a distance, and from a distance the sprites do look like 3D models, at least models that were flattened down into sprites.

[@WitheredP]

@@ScionVyseI guess the sprites were just so good they look 3d

[@samhall5096]

probably aesthetic preference. I like the OG as well. Kinda like how Pokemon platinum is older than Black/White but looks better.

[@swozzlesticks3068]

On your point about difficulty, there is a romhack for this game which not only makes enemies do more damage but also tightens timings for dodging/counter attacks. It doesn't *randomize* them, they are still perfectly readable and you can react to them, but the timings are tighter. This is certainly at least a proof of concept for what a hard mode could be. It's how i play the game these days now. Absolutely love this game through and through

[@jemuzu6882]

Just found your channel and your underrated as hell dude, keep up the vids, soon you’ll become alot more popular

[@jaredpoon5869]

I remember playing Superstar Saga (on the original GBA many years later), and I remember being rather frustrated on the Cackletta phase 2 fight. I remember being able to survive even with one bro dead because I could revive him with a healing item. I wonder if this section was more frustrating because you had the habit of dodging both bros at the same time rather than developing the muscle memory to dodge only one bro at a time. Throughout my playthrough, I almost always used the dodge/retaliate command separately, and so when it came to dodging Cackletta's initial phase two attack (which I think was almost always the arms attack), it wasn't so bad when I had to dodge the arms individually.

[@leonchameleon]

these videos gonna go crazy in my ear while working 5 hours on the grill, appreciate your dedication

[@ElsCRD]

Hey Sci, it was really great to relive this game through your review. I didn't have a GBA either, but when I got my DS Phat as a kid I went hard catching up on everything I missed. Fire Emblem, Metroid, Golden Sun, Minish Cap, the Castlevania's and yes, Superstar Saga. I actually forgot about many of the specifics of the game, despite having incredibly fond memories. For example, I forgot the A and B buttons were dedicated to a specific brother. One thing I didn't forget however, was how insanely punishing the final boss was. I'm glad it wasn't just me! Much love from Dtoid

[@xxroyalprincexx6811]

28:45 In the remake this enemy was renamed to the Beanerang Bro to differentiate it to the Boomerang Bros from the Mushroom Kingdom.

[@waddlepikmin227]

15:45 while I can agree to how tedious this may seem, there are a couple things in play to help make this less tedious that, to my knowledge, the game admittedly never tells you about. First, if you press both l and r at the same time, it will reset your action commands to jump, no matter what bro move input you have prepped on the buttons. This is mentioned more in future titles and something a veteran could figure out quickly, but I imagine a new player would take a long time to accidentally discover this. Second, the following bro can still jump while they have another action command ready. Sort of. As long as you can jump with the leading bro, the button for the following bro will always make them jump if they cannot perform the prepped bro action. One of the easiest ways to do this is by using a ledge to create a height difference, which is one of the more frequent moments you would need to switch back to jumping anyways. All that being said, the icons can be a bit of a hassle to switch between at times, and I’m glad they offered a nice solution to this in the remake on the 3ds.

[@Keitoded]

Says Dream Team was a bad starting point for the series. Cut to me who also started there and has the most play hours on that game out of the whole series... I understand his perspective, but I felt called out. Also interesting fact the 3ds games including the SS and BiS remakes actually are NOT 3D models interestingly, the characters are 2D sprites stylized specifically to look 3D, and to pop out with the 3D on the 3DS (at least at first). The only 3D modelled characters in these games are the final boss of Paper Jam's 2nd phase, Cackletta's Soul in SS+BM, and all of the Paper characters, ironically enough.

[@ScionVyse]

Hey, it was just a bad starting point for me, and I am looking forward to giving it another shot! Also, that's good to know, I guess that's what I get for not looking closely enough at them- they definitely look like models that got flattened into sprites.

[@Keitoded]

@@ScionVyse Oh I wasn't arguing that Dream Team wasn't a bad starting point, with all the obnoxious tutorials, especially I agree. I just thought it was funny it seemed like you were accidentally calling me out, I wasn't actually offended or anything. And no worries about the 2d 3d thing, I didn't notice either and only learned when I looked up the spriter's resource page for Paper Jam.

[@The_hot_blue_fire_guy]

You can actually move before the final boss if your speed stat is high enough. I think it’s around 120-130 speed to be able to move first. The best thing to do is grind beans or levels until at least one of the brothers has a speed of 120 and then use ultra/max nuts to heal both brothers HP. This fight isn’t very unfair if you know it’s coming. It is kind of a brick wall if it’s your first time playing though.

I feel like you missed *alot* in this game. The biggest gripe I have with this video, is the complaint about the Advance Bros moves. It does clue you in to the fact that there's *something* different you can do, using the little speech bubbles with an exclamation mark to insinuate that 'Hey! Look! Listen! Pay attention here and think and you'll realise that you can do something!'

[@PatrickGilland]

When I first played this game, I happened to have clothing on Luigi that lets him get a first turn, so the final boss didn't kill me on the first turn

[@XZaceX]

I disagree with the 2nd phase of the final battle. I found starting the battle with 1hp exhilarating. It made things really tense, surrounded by flames, the music, Cackletta's final form. So good. Plus because the way the games difficulty works as you said, I never found it a problem to die to it, You can get good enough at the game to basically never take damage. It makes that moment when you finally do take zero hits on the start of the battle feel amazing. That's assuming you don't move first with a high enough speed stat lmao. Also I personally found the 1st phase really easy so getting back to phase 2 was never an issue for me even as a 12 year old when I first played this game. I also very much disagree with your statement on replay ability, but that's a whole other convo. Otherwise this was a good video and I enjoyed it a lot c: I never knew there was a rivalry between M&L and Paper Mario series but I love both of them so I don't really care.

[@MsDarkz123]

I don't think there's really a problem with the way phase 2 of the final boss is handled. If you have enough speed you can even act before she attacks you.

[@aheadsounds2522]

The final boss was way faster than you so it attacked with the head and 2 arms before you got the chance to attack. I am not sure but you may be able to outspeed them

i disagree about the 2nd part of the final boss being bad game design, its the final boss its suppose to be hard

[@devranyilmaz9806]

Agreed, a final boss should be the ultimate test of the game’s mechanics, and there’s no better test than a no-damage run. Even as an RPG, M&L games ask for a certain degree of skill from players. Cackletta is there to check if you’ve actually been picking up what the game has been putting down for the entire adventure. If you die, you’ve failed the vibe check and is thus a skill issue on your part.

[@riolu477]

22:24 its funny you said that because this is the only game that actually has that, Luigi's hammer attacks do more damage as a while, its the reason knock back bro's is such a good move compared to Mario's chopper bro's, the basic version of the attack is stronger for mario but the advance is stronger for luigi, i may be wring but i believe the remake removes this feature too edit: 27:42 actually, the first time and even maybe a few times after that, that you use the attack after earning its advanced version, you see the same exclamation mark happen, its just easier to see with the slow motion, its also worth noting that when you fail the bro moves, its not just a different animation but a different effect as well, failing thunder bro's in a specific way sets the enemy defense to 0, whereas using it normally only reduces effect by half and the other fails dont apply the effect edit 2: 31:39 funny you say that (just realized i said that twice), because this is actually a side effect of nationality, in most if not all mario rpg games, the japanese version is easier than the american version, this is due to the assumption that americans are better at rpg games while worse at some other games, the japanese version of this game has healing blocks in certain areas and before every boss battle right next to the save block, healing blocks restore both hp and bp, which is ironic all in all, considering nowadays, it's actually the japanese version that is made harder instead

[@thecoolluka9558]

not sure if you know this but on the 3ds remake on phase 2's final boss she has more health but you do get the first turn instead of her

[@veghesther3204]

I say YES but the 3DS remake of it is even EASIER to break the game sure you can't USE the Mush AAA badges on the 3DS remake at all but that version still replaced it with a Badge that Each HIT of Chopper Bros does like 300 per hit and the final boss has less then 3000 HP so its very easy on the 3DS remake of this game to 1 turn KILL the last boss AFTER restoring both bros HP FROM 1 HP left TO FULL HP first.

[@halfyou]

nice video, but many (almost all) of the problems you have with the game were completely fixed in the remake, so itd be nice to hear your thoughts on that should you play it! As a newcomer I played the GBA version, which was great but i struggled with so many things like having no idea what advanced attacks were, lol. and yet the battles were still so easy 😭 i still had a ton of fun, I would recommend the remake to anyone who’s never played this game

[@thejet4672]

Great review

[@palamation3080]

Great video but I'm gonna argue against your replayability claim. You played this game twice back-to-back, so of course you still remember the enemy attack patterns and fake outs. But most people aren't going to replay a game until years later. So some things may be familiar, but you'll have likely forgotten all the attack patterns and timing. Also like a lot of others have mentioned, you can go before the 2nd phase Cackletta. I casually replayed this game a couple months ago and Mario got the first attack.

[@darthflagitious2859]

Love this video, but I have to respectfully disagree on your take about replayability. The fact that you learn all the enemies’ moves is exactly what makes these games so replayable. Every time I replay this game, I stay underleveled and put all my stat boosts into stache, to make it super challenging. If you do every play through like it’s a casual one, then yeah I could see how replays would be kinda boring. But if you’re not opposed to challenge runs, these are some of the most replayable RPGs out there, imo.

I did like superstar saga but a lot of the time the game dragged on a bit at some Parts. The balance could be terrible like with mush badges(trivializes the game way too much). Some things were very confusing throughout. I was a little overleveled but the game was easy most of the way through and i think i only game overed a few times. I don't think i laughed or was amused almost at all throughout the entire game really. Plot has a ton of kind of really bad moments and a few pretty good ones. Paper mario was the actual sequel to mario rpg because i think in japan it was littarly called mario rpg 2. this game has not too much you can do in it as the most interchangable element in this game is equiptment but there is not really that many options for it other than the items like the great force. I tried to replay the game but it really drags on at a lot of points and it is easy so i just got bored.
