I just posted an article on the front page that included this game. Thanks for making the topic.

This game looks interesting to me, but it sounds like Mario will only be playable.

Looks interesting enough.

I've always been a fan of the Mario RPG series, though I still need to play Inside Story

Bowser's Inside Story was a lot of fun for me. A bit on the easy side once you mastered timed hits and all but still getting to play as Bowser=epic win.

Something to ponder though I doubt it will happen. If this takes place in a dream world wouldn't it be cool if it was the same Dream World from the US SMB2 meaning this guy would show up?

200px-WartTwo.jpg I think his time has come again and he could bring his cronies Mouser, Clawgrip, Tryclyde and Fryguy.

Then again they missed the chance to bring back Tatanga for Galaxy despite him being an alien in a spaceship and all and we had to beg for years to get our koopalings back so I highly doubt Wart will show up but it would be awesome.

I sure hope. I really enjoyed Super Mario Brothers 2, even though it was a complete mock off of Doki Doki Panic.

I also doubt he would show up, but he would be a perfect character for this game since he only appears in dreams.

I think it would be awesome if Wart (and Mouser and so on) just showed up inexplicably at some point, like the Koopalings in Superstar Saga.

 

Looking very forward to this game.

He could be a boss seeking out revenge after the events of Super Mario Bros. 2. Maybe he learns to like vegetables again, and Mario needs to figure out his new weakness.

Luigi's dream interpretation of Fawfal. Even if hes just a boss on the side (like the shroobs in Bowser's Inside Story) he has to be in there somewhere! Considering its within Luigi's dreams, they could bring back cameo's of any character within the mario and luigi series...

I hope there are more sidequests in this one. If I had any complaint whatsoever with Mario & Luigi (which is hard to do), it would be the lack of sidequests (though Bowser's Inside Story added the whole X-boss thing, which was a nice touch). The original Mario RPG had some great sidequests, and although they weren't as extravagent, the first two Paper Marios had some fun sidequests as well. I just think it would be cool if M&L had some great distractions from the main story.

Fawlful is one of the better characters that's come out of the Mario series in recent years. It always nice when another villian comes along and not just always Bowser. Heck the final battle in B.I.S. was Bowser essentially fighting a possessed version of himself controlled by Fawful.

I HAVE FURY!!

Why the hell isn't Fawful playable in some of these racing, sports, party games? Just thought of that.

^ On Fawful not being playable, Nintendo might just want to non-spin-off characters in their sports and party games. It doesn't make much sense for a major RPG character like Fawful, though.

I liked the first three in the series. I hope this one turns out to be very good!

Judging from the first screenshot, the graphics aren't very good.

I wouldn't say they aren't good, just different. Dream Team uses pre-rendered character models (a la Donkey Kong Country) and has some 3D environments, but otherwise it looks as colorful as ever. However, the enemy designs seen so far leave a lot to be desired, and hopefully we'll see more creative enemies as we get more info on the game.

Right. I hope they make good use of the 3D, but we will not know what the 3D is like until a video is released on the 3DS eShop.

I hope so too. Hardly any games in the 3DS library have good use of 3D effect.

The best ones are Super Mario 3D Land, Resident Evil: Revelations, and Tetris: Axis in my opinion.
