>remake released on a console that could already play the original game via backwards compatibility>two years after the successor console came out, no lessWhat the fuck were they thinking?
>noooo I can't The vore apologists game on my 700$ shit station
>>720683951AlphaDream was $10 million in debt at that point after almost a decade of being in the red. They would shut down less than a year after releasing that. It was just a hail mary, not like they could afford to make a new game.
>>720683951Other games have other versions made, even if the original can be played on it, in some way officially.

>>720684274>Dream team killed AlphaDreamwho would've guessed.
>>720684246If you paid $700 for a 3DS you deserved to get scammed.
>>720683951Alphadream were broke as shit and were hoping to make quick cash by remaking their most popular game, and do it on the 3DS to save on costs and to reuse their engine and assets.It did not work out for them
>>720684591Dream Team was an absolute snoozefest.
>>720684591>>720685141Not Dream Team, Paper Jam and the remakes.Some sales numbers:>Original: 2m sales>Partners: 2m sales>Inside Story: 4.5m sales>Dream Team: 2m sales>Paper Jam: 1m sales>Original Remake: 500k sales>Bowser Remake: 34k salesWhich doesn't sound too bad until you realize the latter half of those had 10x-50x the development costs, and this was ALL AlphaDream was putting out with no safety net.Meanwhile Brothership has only sold 2m copies, but Acquire has the benefit of releasing 2+ other games every single year to recoup costs (including Octopath Traveler).
>>720685664Dream Team WAS a snoozefest though, I got to the bird deity thing and it was the second or third time in the game a character was spouting meme bullshit at me with no substance. And the gyro shit sucks in the dreamy luigi fights because you can't recenter it.
>>720684591all their games were fucking boring and devoid of passion. they must have had contempt for children and their intelligence while making these games
>>720686007it was a 25h rpg diluted over 60 hours, it took me 3 years to finish for how boring it was
They would've made more money with a simple change
>>720686116Partners in time was fantastic.
>>720685664So Paper Mario killed M&L.Fucking hilarious that one series was so bad it killed an entirely different dev team with a crossover
>>720686293Sticker Star happened because of Miyamoto. So i guess Miyamoto killed M&L indirectly?
>>720683951I didn't even know this rerelease existed.
I still think a game titled Mario & Luigi & Wario & Waluigi would sell enough to make the series mainstream all on its own.
After replaying the entire M&L Franchise it's so fucking slow, every game suffers from backtracking and have super simple combat, the only reason to try it is because of the writing which isn't the best thing in the world, super mario rpg is still the best mario rpg because it's the only one with actual pacing
