Can we give a huge respect to the makers of this game? Alphadream? They were a good company but the bankruptcy they had last summer hit me hard. Hope the people that used to be in there are doing fine now.
By co op, I was hoping 1 person controlled Mario and the other Luigi. My bro and I did this on the GameCube because every connected controller can do inputs.
I was hoping the same I thought that would be so cool. Like they would have to communicate what to do to each other and work together to nail the bros moves
Sad that an installment with this idea of one controlling Mario and another controlling Luigi separately was never even conceived. Sounds like a very fun to play, this way of yours.
That moment at about 8:45. I'm so glad he mentions there being no up/down indication on the level up screen. In my very first playthrough, I didn't know you could pick different stats, causing me to choose HP every time, making endgame very difficult. (Keep in mind I was 7 at the time)
So at my school in Germany nobody knew this game. I just wanted a mario game and didnt even know this was an rpg but i bought it. I was like 10 years old and hooked 1200 people in school to play this game because it was such a good game. just took it with me to school and wooops a schooltrend was born
WOW! Awesome run. I watched from beginning to end and watching those two duke it out together in the finale had me on the edge of seat, especially because that final boss is a doozy. Love seeing people so passionate about this game. It got me a bit emotional ngl haha
I'm 20 years old who played this game ever since I was 7, and I'm just realizing today that Fawful has Cackletta's boss theme in this version. I don't know why he had Popple's theme in the American version. I prefer Cackletta's theme better. It's more fitting.
Differences in the GBA and 3DS versions 13:49 In the 3DS version there are 13 Pipes, mostly on places there are not, like for example the Island where you play a minigame to get the Casual Coral pants (for Mario in GBA, 3DS can be equiped to either) 24:26 In the 3DS version of the game, in order to see Sledge and Mallet (yes those are their names) the cutscene with the villagers fixing the bridge is a difference since theres no cutscene in the GBA I think 39:39 Might as well point it out but after the Popple 4 Boss, in the 3DS version the Castle misic is the danger theme 1:16:31 He raises the speed of his attacks 1:22:31 He can (in the 3DS version) steal one of the bros. hammers and that wastes time
As a kid I fought the final boss tons of times including my final 3.5 hr session and lost only to realize later in life that I'd invested all my extra points into defense.
Depends on the game. With games like this, you don't need that many levels when you have action prompts to dodge all damage. Sometimes (like with some FF games) you can go through specific routes to keep your exp and abilities at the exact amount you need to beat what you face. And then some games have exploits that allow you to power level and make the rest of the game a cakewalk.
Usually a level they can exploit and grind quick levels early on, important routing, or sometimes with certain games they can ignore the leveling systems entirely.
As others have said. I'd, also, like to add that action RPGs like Tales of Symphonia and Star Ocean find ways to exploit enemies and force them into a stun lock whenever possible.
Love the update where it shows you can move the stats during level up. The first time I played, I got to Fawful (at the end) with only hp and could not beat it.
1:15:00 actually I learned to mash through Starfy 5, because of the final boss requiring godlike mashing of the Y button. Would recommend it if you want to master mashing, I can now mash very fast with 1 finger due to Mashtooth.
Two runners submit the same game, same category, so they trade-off the controller instead of doing a race. This has a couple perks, such as allowing one runner to focus on gameplay without having to worry too much about providing commentary, allowing one player to rest their hands, and moreover just kinda show the community side of things. It's more or less just a compromise when two runners submit the same game that they both get to do the run without the issues of a potential race (as races have differences in setup, commentary, and one runner can easily just blow out the other one if the game involves a lot of luck.
This bruh really just said NO other games let you switch who's in front? I will have you know that M&L partners in time did that and even had a fair few mechanics around it. MY CHILDHOOD CAN NOT LIE

The actually got a new trademark on last month on the 9th. Thank God.
@@groudongamer3178 they did I never heard about it hopefully a good game comes out of it cause I don’t what you think but paper jam wasn’t the best
Absolutely, this game was amazing, credit goes to the studio that produced it
Runner: Everything you are about to see is intentional.
Screen tech: oh God...what are they going to do?
What a great game. I can't believe how much they packed into the world, gameplay, secrets, characters, story... especially for a GBA game!
1:03:15 Luigi can have little a HP, as a treat
By co op, I was hoping 1 person controlled Mario and the other Luigi. My bro and I did this on the GameCube because every connected controller can do inputs.
I was hoping the same I thought that would be so cool. Like they would have to communicate what to do to each other and work together to nail the bros moves
Same
They did that for the final boss and escape sequence
Sad that an installment with this idea of one controlling Mario and another controlling Luigi separately was never even conceived. Sounds like a very fun to play, this way of yours.
What the most broken in M&L SS?
Casual players: Mush badge, Mushrooms, swing bro’s, chopper bro’s,
Speed runners: BARRELS
The final fight makes me want to see a full playthrough of that type of co-op.
That moment at about 8:45. I'm so glad he mentions there being no up/down indication on the level up screen. In my very first playthrough, I didn't know you could pick different stats, causing me to choose HP every time, making endgame very difficult. (Keep in mind I was 7 at the time)
When I first played Superstar Saga, I also thought you can only choose HP lol
Same
Was pretty convinced the speed strat is to spam atk on every level up
Thats what I did as a kid lmao
Me: Ah such nostalgia. I remember doing all of this
51:54 *happens*
Me: ...
Trying to read more of your comment just sent me back about an hour into the run, so thanks.
The Mario & Luigi series's comic relief is so good
They will never make a Mario & Luigi again...
Mmmargh Let’s hope if Nintendo decides to continue this series they won’t screw it over like they did with paper Mario
@@mmmargh4743You sure?
I kinda wish we could see fawfuls blessed quotes that give me the immense smiles from ear to ear.
Hey nice pfp
The only RPG in which levels (kinda) don't matter, cause why need health when you can dodge everything like a boss?
Excellent speedrun by the way!
@@JinFreeks the Kingdom hearts games as well
@@JinFreeks SL521 one shotting bosses says hi
@@Brando550 you cant dodge stuff there only superguard
The OG Paper Mario is possible to beat at Level 1, but to do it you need to hack the game into permalocking your Star Points into 0.
@@davidjimenez3822 That, and Lv1 Paper Mario 64 requires a special set of strategies (usually involving items), AND also legendary luck.
So at my school in Germany nobody knew this game. I just wanted a mario game and didnt even know this was an rpg but i bought it.

One of my favorite rpg’s!
One of my favorite runs. Great game, great tricks, great commentary. 🙂
Great run! I feel like it it might have been even more fun if the runners played co op the whole time instead of just the final boss
Kinda sad they didn't mention that the Ludwig fight is different in the remake
Paper Luigi the plan is simple
The lone fight keeping it from being beatable without dodges/counters
So great to see the first Mario game I ever played at AGDQ!
I'm 20 years old who played this game ever since I was 7, and I'm just realizing today that Fawful has Cackletta's boss theme in this version. I don't know why he had Popple's theme in the American version. I prefer Cackletta's theme better. It's more fitting.
Remake fixed it
Only by watching this did I know the Yoko Shimomura compose Superstar Saga....
Differences in the GBA and 3DS versions
13:49 In the 3DS version there are 13 Pipes, mostly on places there are not, like for example the Island where you play a minigame to get the Casual Coral pants (for Mario in GBA, 3DS can be equiped to either)
24:26 In the 3DS version of the game, in order to see Sledge and Mallet (yes those are their names) the cutscene with the villagers fixing the bridge is a difference since theres no cutscene in the GBA I think
39:39 Might as well point it out but after the Popple 4 Boss, in the 3DS version the Castle misic is the danger theme
1:16:31 He raises the speed of his attacks
1:22:31 He can (in the 3DS version) steal one of the bros. hammers and that wastes time
Omg I can’t believe they really did a run for this I love this game so much!!
Hands down my favourite thing about this game is Marios WOOWAHAA when he levels up
im not the only one who had a faulty superstar saga cart that wouldnt save? thank god
I miss this game. Was amazing.
As a kid I fought the final boss tons of times including my final 3.5 hr session and lost only to realize later in life that I'd invested all my extra points into defense.
When they do the chopper Bros attacks, how do they do it that fast?
1:15:00 They use two thumbs (along with practice, I assume).
I've always wondered how people speedrun games with leveling systems
Depends on the game. With games like this, you don't need that many levels when you have action prompts to dodge all damage. Sometimes (like with some FF games) you can go through specific routes to keep your exp and abilities at the exact amount you need to beat what you face.

As others have said. I'd, also, like to add that action RPGs like Tales of Symphonia and Star Ocean find ways to exploit enemies and force them into a stun lock whenever possible.
This game should be called "Mario and Luigi Softlock Saga"
Really great run, didn't even know you could co-op.
Love the update where it shows you can move the stats during level up. The first time I played, I got to Fawful (at the end) with only hp and could not beat it.
Cool. VERY fast mashing- wish I could do that.
Epilepsy Warning
I never bothered to count, but:
How many times did the prince flip his hair?
1:15:00 actually I learned to mash through Starfy 5, because of the final boss requiring godlike mashing of the Y button. Would recommend it if you want to master mashing, I can now mash very fast with 1 finger due to Mashtooth.
Nostalgic moment thx :D i Play this and win
Wheres the mustache only run
M-m-m-m-m-m-Mariooooo
Are they using a game boy player? Wish they mentioned that. The choice of controller seems important.
Great run, but why did they say that they were upgrading power when it is clearly health that is being upped?
I don't have an Advance but I do have a 3DS and this speedrun has shown me this is a game worth buying!
I don’t understand the co-op part
Two runners submit the same game, same category, so they trade-off the controller instead of doing a race. This has a couple perks, such as allowing one runner to focus on gameplay without having to worry too much about providing commentary, allowing one player to rest their hands, and moreover just kinda show the community side of things.

These guys run this game like its some joke that only them two are in on.
Minion Shirt
Ah, I hoped that co-op meant that one was going to control the A button and the other was going to control the B button.
1:45:48 Nice!
1:32:41 wasn't this run done before among us got popular again
41:55 holy shit among us
the eu ver is like the japanese?
I played this in 2004 while deployed to Africa. I easily beat this with no challenge
2:32:11 I got that by accident like an hour ago lol
Cool!
does luigi have a crush on the prince or something?
Those glitches are sooo weird
What the hek 51:59
how to do Double Luigi glitch? :□
This bruh really just said NO other games let you switch who's in front? I will have you know that M&L partners in time did that and even had a fair few mechanics around it.
MY CHILDHOOD CAN NOT LIE
I speedrun Partners in Time. You actually can't.
Your childhood lied
It can lie. You can separate the bros and babies, but that isn't switching who's in front.
