Review of Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga. (and then some last boss info)
(only mike reviewing)
Now, this game is a Mario game, I am one of the biggest Mario game fans ever, especially when the game is rpg based. This game is etremely fun, like most Mario games. The storyline is funny, childish and interesting, the first of its kind really because it introduces a new place, the bean bean kingdom. It introduces new characters and enemies. Prince Peasly, Bean beans and Queen Bean. And Bowser is not the head boss (technically you actually witness Bowser and the main boss, Cackalatta merge together and the results is an uglified hermapherdidic Bowletta). The downs of this game is the boss fights are relativley simple and the mini games are mind numbing hard. The exception to this is the last mini game the last boss fight. They switch places in difficulty level. This game has everything for Mario fans around the world and is indeed a must have. I give it a 10/10.
 
Advantages:
+Great story
+New characters and  enemies.
+Funny things.
 
Disadvantages:
-Easy boss fights
-Super hard mini games
-childish not for everyone.
 
 
 
 
Now for that last boss fight.
As I said above Cackalatta and Bower merge to Bowletta. Well after you have defeated the relativley easy boss fights of Koopalings, you get to him/her. It has some powerful moves, nothing that could kill your chars since the fight is over within 10 minutes. First make sure you jump right before Bowletta spits a stream of fire at you. Then when it is your turn use your faverite Bros moves (mine for mario is chopper bros and luigi is knock knock bros and these work well if you perfected them) And then have luigi use thunder bros first to make it have a lowered defence. If it spits fireballs, do not care about them because all they do is heal about 30 on it and that isn't enough to be a real threat. After doing a good amount of damage (sometimes you will kill it before this happens) Bowletta turns dark and star fall from the sky. Red stars mean coming at Mario, green means Luigi, hit them wit ur hammer and they will go back and do damage to Bowletta. Now after that do the bros attacks and after luigi it should roar and declare you the winner. But then a bomb at the number 0 will come by and blow the bros up. Then Bowletta will eat you. You then face Cackaletta (this is the REAL boss fight) and both bros have 1 hp each. If her right arm flicks that means you will have to do a number of jumping over fire, if her left arm flicks that means you have to hammer an electric ball back and forth, or her head will charge up an energy ball and shoot it, you have to hit it a few times in a row for it to stop being a threat. Or she will spin her arms round and round. As soon as it is your turn, heal. And don't bother with the elemental bros attacks with Cackalatta because it heals the majority of her body parts. After you have healed and dodged one more turn of toururous moves, kill off her right arm first because that is the bigger threat. Then her head, and then her right arm. After defeating all three body parts the heart in the middle opens up and all three parts reappear and attack you. Healing is not an option unless the bros are very low on hp or bp. Otherwise strike that heart with all you got. Then it will close up. After you are close to killing her she will eventially speed things up and do more attacks from the head. One is when she blinks her eyes, look at the eyes and jump or don't jump the the brother on the side her eye is on. She will shoot lasers. For instance her right eye is up, don't jump with luigi, but her left one is down, do jump with mario. Also there is another attack similar to Bowletta's star attack except it is faster and with balls. But the same color code. Green, luigi, red, mario. After a long hard battle you have defeated her, its usually about 5 times of killing her body parts and heavey damage to the heart. Enjoy the ending.
 
Note: My advice is only advice, you may have a different tactic, try mine and if that does not work try different combos. This is the hardest boss fight and will take you a good few tries before beating her.
