I also love Bowser’s character. In gameplay, it’s a reminder that HE IS A BOSS. Unlike the brothers, he doesn’t do acrobatics and evade. He is a tank and a powerhouse. His stats are disproportionately high compared to a single brother. In the overworld, Bowser can trample critters for some coins, but when the brothers encounter them, it’s an actual fight. Low level enemies for Bowser become medium fights for the brothers. Don’t forget the characterization. Bowser doesn’t feel altruistic and begrudgingly sides with Mario and Luigi like in Superstar Saga. He is still a bad guy and he’s stopping Fawful because he stole his thunder. Don’t forget that badass dialogue before the final boss. In other words, “I wouldn’t say ‘freed”, more like ‘under new management.’”
Same, never got far when I first played so I restart to get a better grasp on things (though I’ve been off and on recently and I’m in an off period, but I plan to play later today)
You're literally trying to convince an avid pasta lover spaghetti is good. Of course I know it's good. I would be making it every night if ordering pizza wasn't faster and easier.
@@DE23 objectively, yes you’re right. It’s a better game than the original. Subjectively though, the remake doesn’t quite capture the same “feeling” as the original, with the 2D pixel artstyle and music composition. Might just be nostalgia tho, lol
@@DE23 I disagree their are a few QoL changes that I like (for example bowser using cheese instead of syrup since he has more SP than the bros) but I don’t think it’s enough to make it worth it since the original is playable on 3DS. I think the worst offense is that the game runs in 30fps rather than the 60 the original game runs at. I fucked up so much at the beginning cause I was used to the original timing in the OG game. Why does it run at 30fps the game doesn’t even support 3D TwT
If the original version didn’t have the horrendous mic mechanic then I’d easily be able to say that I like the OG version more, but since the remake doesn’t have the mic mechanic it’s hard for me to decide which version I like more.
I got this game when I was 9 around when it was new, incredible game for sure. I got to the final boss but never beat it cause I broke my DS hinge from mashing the buttons too hard😂
For me it’s a close second. Superstar Saga just barely takes the spot as being my favorite game. If Bowser’s inside Story didn’t have the mic mechanic (I know the remake exists, but it just doesn’t hit the same) then it would be much harder for me to decide which one I like more lol.
@@bluemarker1695 For some reason my New 2DS XL was never able to detect me blowing into the mic for the giant battles (even though it worked for other DS games) which caused me to get softlocked in one of the giant battles and unable to progress unless if I played it on my DSi XL hence why I hate the mic mechanic lol.
Absolutely my favorite mario game. Amazing story that gets you attached to the characters and being a part of bowser's story made it what I consider a flawless game.
This is my #1 mario game from the Ds, Gosh this brings so much memories, Nostalgia, I remember the worm/caterpillar (i dont remember very well) boss fight using Mario and Luigi was the most hardest one for me than the final boss fight 😭, I love this game till the end
The entire Mario and Luigi series is pure gold, no, Platinum!! Everything about it is amazing, animation, story, music. Not even getting started on how fun battles are! Rip Alpha dream...
I used to play this game, and I still do! I have Save file 1 at the event where I fight Dark Bowser, and Save file 2 at the event where I fight the Dark Star.
I love when this series gets recognition in any way, despite having played countless games, this game series is still number one it introduced me into rpg games and inspired so many of my programming projects, and its sad that because of the company going bankrupt, we will no longer get any more games from this series.
@@proxyhasnosleep LORE: in partners in time (thank you for telling me the name) bowser actually says that he wants to keep his younger self, and at the end of the game, mario and luigi let their past selves go back to their timeline, but past version of bowser doesn't go back meaning bowser Jr is the past version of bowser
I absolutely adored this game as a child. I remember struggling to eat that giant carrot and my mom helped me. She got it first try and I was shocked 😂
I think I had my uncle beat the carrot part for me lol. Also did anyone else get stuck on blizzard midbus bc back when I played I was stuck on it and stopped for like a straight year or two until I picked it up again.
I just finished the 3DS version of this game, and it is genuinely one of the most fun games I've played. It's surprisingly funny, too, and the OST is incredibly underrated, besides In The Final (the final boss theme).
There's too much to list about why this game slaps but here's the list. -Excellent concept thats been fully realized -music that bops ESPECIALLY In the Final -Fawful is an amazing villain -Luigi is a goofy boy -Bowser is just a dingus -Combat system is simple and Intuitive -Unique characters are all super fun -story is better than all mainline titles -bowser has a unique playstyle -special attacks are satisfying -sprites are fluid and detailed -final boss is best final boss in any game -minigames are all creative ways to manipulate bowser -dialogue is genuinely funny at times -giant battles are presented amazingly grand
I'm playing through this right now for the first time on the 3ds. I love it. I love the 2d platforming with mario and luigi inside bowser and the stomping through the overworld with Bowser. So cool. I plan on playing all of them. Next is partners in time.
This game is just like Crash Twinsanity because 1) Both games are wacky 2) Both Mario and Crash have to team up with Bowser and Coetex respectivly to defeat a common enemy 3) Being able to play as the villain is awesome 4) Both games are great in their own regard
Actually, the game is kinda inconsistent when it comes to Fawful's goal. Sometimes he claims to want to conquer the Mushroom Kingdom, then after he gets some of the Dark Star's power, his endgame becomes dominating the world. And even then, after he got his ass beat in his Dark Star Core form, he says he "only wanted some kingdom conquering". In Charriii5's words: "GODDAMNIT, WHICH IS IT!?"
I don't understand. His goal was always to conquer the Mushroom Kingdom (which is also the world in the context of this game, so he was always referring to the kingdom). He probably said "world" instead of "kingdom" because he was feeling powerful after gaining the dark power. Even after being weakened and becoming the weird bug, he still continued to help the dark star conquer the kingdom. And finally, his dialogue after the final boss is just due to of his irregular speech pattern, he basically meant that he wanted to conquer the kingdom.
Things you *need* to know about this game: • Mushroom people get fat • Bowser does shrooms in the woods • Bowser vores Princess Peach, Mario, Luigi, toads, and many parts of the environment • Mushroom people bring capitalism to Bowser's insides • Mario hits Bowser's spinal cord with a hammer • A bean man adds nuts to a statue • Bowser inhales cuboidal kitties • Bowser gets fat • Bowser gets stepped on by a tower • Bowser -gets a train ran on him- gets run over by a train • Luigi gets fat • Mario gets fat • Mario and Luigi fight a trash can • Mario and Luigi do back surgery on Bowser • Bowser huffs icy nose fumes And I'm _still_ leaving out a whole buncha stuff (spoilers and surprises)
I never finished it when I was young because I didn’t know how to properly play an rpg. It was my first rpg too. I am currently replaying it and im having such a good time!
So Bowser just becomes Kirby?
this actualy made me laugh rly hard
Well yes but actually no
@@N_DOGGY yes'nt
More like Dedede
Na. He dont get any powers from eating people
And bowsers oblivious the entire game he's actually teamed up with the Mario Brothers.
hes a silly guy
He is aware of Chippy, however
@@isaacdibossTrue, but he doesn’t know _who_ Chippy really is, pretty much chalking it up to a weird voice in his body.
He didn't, he did not even know mario and luigi was in his body
@@Friend15739 That's what he said; oblivious means to not know of something
This games art and ost are honestly the best part of it for me. These are some of the best Mario and Luigi sprites ever
Fun fact: Fawful, the main baddie of this game, is the henchman of the big baddie in Superstar Saga Cackletta!
*_C H A R A C T E R_*
*_D E V E L O P M E N T_*
@@jamiegioca9448for a Mario villain no less
And Fawful is a shop owner in partners in time i believe
He's also in dream team, at the beginning of the game
@@sciekspir7834 he is? I thought he died at the end of BIS with the final boss.

damn this brings back memories of when my dsi didint get trashed. i used to play that this game and some others like mariokart for hours.
I had a dsi as well (mario kart ds is the goat)
Why your dsi got trashed?
The ost is so underrated.
It's really not lol, people love it
This ost isn’t underrated, it’s just very good. Plus it fits for all the battles,mini games and such. (I feel like a nerd explaining this shit)
One of the best games EVER. I'm replaying it now actually.
I've been doing the same, such an incredible game, on my second replay now lol
Same here brother
I just started it
Same, never got far when I first played so I restart to get a better grasp on things (though I’ve been off and on recently and I’m in an off period, but I plan to play later today)
You're literally trying to convince an avid pasta lover spaghetti is good. Of course I know it's good. I would be making it every night if ordering pizza wasn't faster and easier.
This is one of my favorite games. One of the best soundtracks in any game, let alone any mario game
This game was so great. I was incredibly sad to hear it didn't sell that well. The final boss music is amazing too!
BIS sold more than 4 million units. The best-selling Mario & Luigi game.
MALBiS was one of my favorites games on the DS. If you have a 3DS you *can* buy the remake, but I’d still try to find an original copy
Id have to disagree, I feel the positives of the remake far outweigh the negatives, especially if you haven't played the original
@@DE23 objectively, yes you’re right. It’s a better game than the original. Subjectively though, the remake doesn’t quite capture the same “feeling” as the original, with the 2D pixel artstyle and music composition. Might just be nostalgia tho, lol

The best part is that you used gameplay from the original DS release.
This, too, is one of my favorite mario games! Played it as a kid on the DS, then soon played the remake on the 3DS.
This was one of the firsts video games I’ve played and I truly enjoyed it
A new reboot of the game released a few years ago
This game looks fun! It reminds me of Paper Mario for the N64!
i rly need to play that one
Yeah
@@proxyhasnosleep Yeah the released it for Nintendo Switch Online for you dont wanna buy your own console
It’s a different RPG like
I have the remake, but the tower of Yikk
boo-ray is tedious to switch with bowser.
I got this game when I was 9 around when it was new, incredible game for sure. I got to the final boss but never beat it cause I broke my DS hinge from mashing the buttons too hard😂
similar thing happened to me, I lost my cartage just b4 the final boss as a kid (I'm still upset about it)
Such a good old game! Humour shines through when it needs to, and has a badass final boss
Literally my favorite game of all time
For me it’s a close second. Superstar Saga just barely takes the spot as being my favorite game. If Bowser’s inside Story didn’t have the mic mechanic (I know the remake exists, but it just doesn’t hit the same) then it would be much harder for me to decide which one I like more lol.
@@Masked_Mastermind I loved the fire stuff because I always felt so proud of myself as someone who asthma lmao

@@Masked_Mastermind that makes sense, I just used my ds and it worked fine
@@bluemarker1695 I just wish I didn’t have to rely on using my DSi XL just to beat the giant battles.
This is still my favorite game from my childhood. The music, the gameplay, everything was perfect
“Bowser Inside Story!”
one of the best nintendo games
Only for the scenario M&L PiT is better, but for the gameplay M&L BiS is Better than the second episode
one of the best nintendo games
even though nintendo didn't do a single thing to develop it
Absolutely my favorite mario game. Amazing story that gets you attached to the characters and being a part of bowser's story made it what I consider a flawless game.
This is my favorite game of the Mario & Luigi rpg games...But Partners in Time have better...4 players...
Who like my comment?!?!?
Me
I'm hardstuck at the train boss fight because the mic on my ds is busted
that's actually tragic
My momma broke my ds for not coming down to eat breakfast 💧
This is my #1 mario game from the Ds, Gosh this brings so much memories, Nostalgia, I remember the worm/caterpillar (i dont remember very well) boss fight using Mario and Luigi was the most hardest one for me than the final boss fight 😭, I love this game till the end
Dude that game’s final boss music especially-
The entire Mario and Luigi series is pure gold, no, Platinum!! Everything about it is amazing, animation, story, music. Not even getting started on how fun battles are! Rip Alpha dream...
The Plack Beach (or Black Peach as i always read it) music will forever be nostalgic
I used to play this game, and I still do! I have Save file 1 at the event where I fight Dark Bowser, and Save file 2 at the event where I fight the Dark Star.
I used to play this a lot when I was a child, it was so much more challenging as well compared to other games nowadays
That Inspired For Creating Mini Movie As Known As Adventure Inside The Beast
My favorite ds game, hands down. I wish we had gotten the remake on Switch instead of the 3ds.
Bowser gets high on shrooms and goes on a rampage after getting the munchies
And then you get hit with the Banger of Bangers that is "in the finale" as a final boss theme
this video can literally be represented by the buzz lightyear toy shop gif
This beats the remade version. SUCH A GOOD GAME NINTENDO!!!
Pokémon fans who have played the Mario and Luigi Series
👇🏽
OMG I remember playing this game on my old ds
it was so fun
The undisputed goat of the mario rpg series
favorite game of all time
This is the only game that we gave the 111 percents.
my chilhood wants to take control again-
peak childhood game, just picked up again just for the fun of it.
This is one of my childhood games
"This game is one of the best Mario games of all time for a reason. At the very start of the game Bowser is poisoned" 💀
This was my 2nd mario game AND ITS STILL THE BEST GAME
ah yes, the game with the long cutscene.
Fawful is a GOATed villain
This game was my childhood. I've rebeat it three times
"Fawful"
*shows footage of Broque Monsieur fight*
I love when this series gets recognition in any way, despite having played countless games, this game series is still number one it introduced me into rpg games and inspired so many of my programming projects, and its sad that because of the company going bankrupt, we will no longer get any more games from this series.
What was the mario and luigi game where mario, luigi, bowser, peach, toadsworth, and etc. Have their past versions with them
its called "partners in time" I believe
@@proxyhasnosleep LORE: in partners in time (thank you for telling me the name) bowser actually says that he wants to keep his younger self, and at the end of the game, mario and luigi let their past selves go back to their timeline, but past version of bowser doesn't go back meaning bowser Jr is the past version of bowser
That thing is pissed lol
+ the songs are insanely good
Absolute masterpiece of a game

That’s surprising
@@Kahne-yy3vqaye that I remember same happened,l
Fawful was a dangerous villain and even bowser knew he had to be stopped but least they got the job done to defeat the bigger dog
Bowser did it out of greed because he wanted the kingdom for himself. He didn't even know he was helping the bros the whole game
@@paulblart7378 plus his own kingdom was taken over so you know when that happens fawful is a really big threat
My first game in DS🥺
I HAVE FURY
The dark Bowser is the worst fight I see in my life
So basically, you don't have a life
Bruh it was easy wdym?
I played this game and I can’t recommend it enough either
Bowsers such a chad in this game it’s unreal , Kino game
And I love the ost
absolutely 100%
The final boss theme is awesome
DT better
I just finished the 3DS version of this game, and it is genuinely one of the most fun games I've played. It's surprisingly funny, too, and the OST is incredibly underrated, besides In The Final (the final boss theme).
There's too much to list about why this game slaps but here's the list.
-Excellent concept thats been fully realized
-music that bops ESPECIALLY In the Final
-Fawful is an amazing villain
-Luigi is a goofy boy
-Bowser is just a dingus
-Combat system is simple and Intuitive
-Unique characters are all super fun
-story is better than all mainline titles
-bowser has a unique playstyle
-special attacks are satisfying
-sprites are fluid and detailed
-final boss is best final boss in any game
-minigames are all creative ways to manipulate bowser
-dialogue is genuinely funny at times
-giant battles are presented amazingly grand
I prefer partners in time waayy more, don't know why
I love the dark story and atmosphere of PIT, but found BIS more enjoyable. They're both amazing and the best 2 games in the series.
Is it because of Mario going 'babies!' Or is it something else?
I'm playing through this right now for the first time on the 3ds. I love it. I love the 2d platforming with mario and luigi inside bowser and the stomping through the overworld with Bowser. So cool. I plan on playing all of them. Next is partners in time.
It's such a good series
@@proxyhasnosleepthanks for bringing back my nostalgia 😊
one of the first games i ever played. forever the goat in my heart
I'm going to start playing that game after i finish superstar saga
love the Mario galaxy profile pic
@@proxyhasnosleep thanks 😊
Dang it, I'm late. I was going to say you should play Partners in Time before this one, because it's the prequel.
The peak of the series
I'd say that about superstar saga but bis is good too
All ML games are masterpieces
its my favorite ds game of all time. the musics are also incredible
This game is just like Crash Twinsanity because 1) Both games are wacky 2) Both Mario and Crash have to team up with Bowser and Coetex respectivly to defeat a common enemy 3) Being able to play as the villain is awesome 4) Both games are great in their own regard

Honestly Mario and Luigi bowser's inside story was my first NDS game xd, and I still remember the good times I had with it
AND I AGREE MY DUDE, MUSIC, GREAT, FINAL BOSS FIGHT, GREAT, FINAL BOSS FIGHT MUSIC, MY ALL TIME FAVORITE LOL, STORY, GREAT TOO, WNEMY VARIETY, AWSOME
I love this game.
Kirbow bowser that became kirby
LESSSS GOO BOWSER'S INSIDE STORY! (I agree)
And the final battle song
i have the version with bowser jr journey
And the song by the man on the internet is a work of art

This mario is a masterpiece at my eyes
Yes best childhood game
Is there a way to play this game on PC? this was my first game on Ds it would be crazy to play it again after all these years
Yes I’ve played it I own a copy
I never finished it when I was young because I didn’t know how to properly play an rpg. It was my first rpg too. I am currently replaying it and im having such a good time!
I still hate that carrot
I’ve beaten the remake multiple times and in progress of beating the original and they’ve all been a BLAST to play
I'm waiting for this to come to switch online, but I probably won't
A true classic, really wish Nintendo would rerelease this game on switch
This was my favourite mario game
