Thank your own personal deity—possibly Radahn—it’s Friday! If you somehow didn’t know, Amazon Prime Day is kicking off early next week, but the deals are leaking out early (as they almost always do). I’m also seeing Ubisoft kick off a Summer Sale that has a few 90% off bargains, too. Until the next week of great savings, do stay safe, save often, and see you then.
In retro news, I’m celebrating the 11th birthday of Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, a 3DS purchase I’m glad I didn’t sleep on. Released in The Year of Luigi (a 30th anniversary celebration), this sequel to 2009’s Bowser’s Inside Story had a higher focus on the lanky L capped one. Beyond the always addictive level and gear grinding, I remember digging Luiginary Attacks, Luiginoids, and Giant Luigi boss fights, plus a bold new artstyle that became the template for all future entries, like the forthcoming Mario & Luigi: Brothership which I’ll probably play the crotch out of, too.
