    This game is dull, boring, and nowhere near as good as everone claims. I had it for a week then sold it on e-bay.

Superstar Saga is so good, I don't even know if there's anything bad about it. Superstar Saga takes the traditional turn-based RPG format and puts a creative spin on it with the action commands and Bros. Attacks which require you to press A (for Mario) or B (for Luigi) at the right moment to deal maximum damage with a jump attack, hammer swing or a burst of Fire or Lighting. As for the Bros. Attacks, pretty much you gotta press the right buttons in the right order and when you pull it off, it is so satisfying. The story is really good and holds up very well to this very day. 10/10 from Eggman Enterprises… Expand

    Trash game, caused my friend’s addiction. He doesn’t want to do anything anymore. He plays the game until he’s tired and then says he doesn’t want to play games anymore until he does then he plays this and gets bored again. Wash, rinse, and repeat.

    Superstar Saga is the perfect mix of turn-based combat, adventuring and platforming all in one.

    Things never slack off either due to the brilliant storyline and characters, whilst the tricky combat and devious puzzles keep attention fixated.
