Come on, can they really be dumber then the Koopa's ...?

It could work nicely. I need to see a trailer but it could be good.

But... the koopas are funny, have silly designs, and can actually talk and have conversation, except maybe Morton?

I'm not very fond of the rabbits. I suppose I could give them a shot to convince me otherwise.

Sounds like you'll have a chance to hammer the Rabbids, so maybe it will be cathartic

Haha, beating up some of them in the 1st game was very satisfying xD

It's an RPG. I'm pretty sure there's gonna be plenty of those, especially if there's one in your party :3

Yeah, that is true. As long as I don't hear that rabbit scream too much... -.-;

If true, no wonder Ubisoft is so full-force with NS; this cross over will help Ubisoft more than Nintendo.

I feel like I'm the only one who actually enjoy their "silliness" XD. I tend to enjoy characters which are annoying on purpose, like Claptrap in Borderlands lol.

Makes sense now why Color Splash was turned away from being a turn-based RPG early on. Nintendo doesn't want all of the Mario non-sports spin-offs to all be turn-based JRPGs. So M&L is a light RPG with many action elements, Paper Mario is essentially no longer an RPG at all, and people that really want a true Mario RPG can be satisfied with this.

It seems like a really neat idea. I do wonder how it will turn out, if it's being internally developed at Ubisoft and not at IS or Nintendo EAD. Is it the Child of Light team? Is it a team with little RPG experience but Nintendo is helping them out with that? Or is it another team altogether? Nintendo must have a lot of faith in the development to let it be a finalized game, and not merely a prospective game in early demo form.

January Switch presentation will be extremely interesting.



The Screamapillar is easily identified by its constant screaming—it even screams in its sleep. The Screamapillar is the favorite food of everything, is sexually attracted to fire, and needs constant reassurance or it will die.

That reminds me, we'll get a Mario & Luigi RPG on home console too, that will be pretty cool.

What doesn't sound cool is this game however. I wonder how simple the RPG mechanics will be. I assume they will be very light and this is Nintendo still trying to appeal to a younger audience

I love those Rabbids



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

This is being developed by Ubisoft. Ninty is only supervising.

Crossover with what? Rabids? Never knew that series was that popular. 

Ubisoft developing a RPG? What a weird piece of news...



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.
