Gotta love how Emile neglects to heal Bowser, even when looking at his stats when compared to the Bros after finding all of the beans. 34:55 And that's what you get for neglecting your health.
There had to be consequences for neglecting Bowser’s Health. Penultimate showdown finished and in terms of the main game, this is it!!! I will gladly rewatch this let’s play over and over. And I’d say “Bring it Down!” It’s “Showtime!” 🔥🙈🤣
7:10 from starting as cacklettas right hand man in superstar saga, to a seemingly harmless bean vendor in partners in time, to a mastermind of his own league by resurrecting the dark star…this theme makes it clear that he wants any fink rats who oppose him to suffer from the fury he has built up all this time
@@TheDMan2003 he felt like the brains behind the operation, too. She would've been dead so much earlier if not for fawful, and he probably could've ripped her out of Bowser if needed.
Cackletta's plans would not have even gone that far without Fawful. Heck, she (SPOILERS) could have expired much earlier without Fawful if he hadn't transferred her soul to Bowser.
i can really tell you’ve been having fun with voicing all the characters, bowser and fawful especially. i’ve been having a great time watching it and you can just Hear the smile in your voice with some of these deliveries. absolutely a blast
Of course now Emile uses the retry clock towards the end, it’s totally karma but seriously though. Despite saying this multiple times, this definitely my favorite let’s play that Emile has done. And can we just add the fact that the combination of the struggle of this fight and the neglecting of Bowser’s health via zoom in is immensely satisfying hilarious. Not saying its my number one because there are many moments that I find it funnier but what an explosive and fiery conclusion to 2024. And not going to spoil for those who have yet to see it but given Bowser’s dislike of Mario, I think I know what his response is and in typical Bowser fashion, lol!!! 🙈🤡🤣
When Fawful becomes that disgusting little parasite thing after Bowser defeats him, I can't help but think about how much of a fall from grace he had. From Cackletta's right hand, to basically surviving off scraps in Partners in Time, to eventually being reduced to nothing in Inside Story because of his over ambition and eaten by the very entity he was trying to control and used as a power source before eventually committing suicide. A tragic end for his character
Tbf Partners in Time takes place before he became Cackletta's right hand man So if anything, he started with nothing, became a servant, became a Main Villain, and then was reduced to atoms and eaten by the very thing he went after.
@JosephCeretor Baby Mario and Luigi found him in the sewers under the Mushroom Kingdom in the present and he remarked how they reminded him of adult Mario and Luigi. So while PiT takes place before Superstar Saga, the present day stuff took place after the events of Cackletta
@JosephCeretor he's from the president after superstars saga, not the past before it, and he says the babies look like the "mustaches" that punished him for his villainy to prove this
I agree, Dark Bowser and Dark Star Core is my favorite final boss of all time, and more than for the music! All of the attacks, the counters, the visuals, the atmosphere, the designs of these characters, i hardly focus on boosting attack power and use the Challenge Medal, so the battle lasts a while for me which I enjoy and ofc the KO Punches to finish him off is amazing!
Game Director: So, we're going to make the bosses in this remake have the Fury condition when they drop below a certain health, giving them a feel of desperation... The guy who writes Fawful's dialog: *HE HAS FURY!!!*
Can I just say the fact that he’s gonna be able to get the main story done before his trip means that he’s gotten two let’s plays main story’s done without a single break back to back. This is legendary
7:11 I've seen some people argue over A Fateful Clash, but I personally liked the song. It's a Dark Reprise of Fawful and Cackletta, it symbolizes how far he has descended into madness compared to his _Superstar Saga_ self. He's no longer some quirky apprentice of Cackletta that wished to overthrow/surpass her, he is a total maniac corrupted by the Dark Star, and he has become one of the world's greatest threats, probably only beaten by Elder Princess Shroob, and the only thing standing between him and his plans succeeding is Bowser and the Bros.
Probably the only Mario villain to be above him in terms of threat level would be Dimentio, if only because the *entirety of existence itself* was at stake in that story, instead of just the Mushroom Kingdom.
It truly fits the end of Bowser's Inside Story and Fawful's character arc, as he has fully descended into darkness. Fawful is a Beanish in his own right, instead of the lackey of Cackletta/Bowletta. It merely took him longer than he would have liked to reach that apex.
I am all here for Emile finally being given an actual challenge at a boss fight finally- and the fact all it took was a speedrunning-based save file is hilarious. Happy that the attack of him swinging atop the ceiling lamp was shown tho, as I had noticed it was taken out of the 3DS version for a flying pattern. It's SO unhinged to watch Fawful want to be Spiderman so bad in the original. One thing I DO wish that was shown in the OG fight tho- was how NASTY the Dark Orb Portals Attack originally was- the speed is FAR faster & instant than the 3DS version, so performing the counter was SO HARD as a kid, including the goomba counter as well.
The save file itself was not “gimped” by any means, it seems like he took off the challenge medal because he may have still thought it was making the game “harder” but actually just nerfed bowser’s damage by x6.25.
@@Zepeupgimped is probably the wrong word but the idea is right, he’s playing a speedrun file so it’s way weaker than the DS version he used for most of this LP, his characters are way weaker and he’s missing all of bowsers attacks, IMO he should have gone back and picked up one of the minion attacks like Magikoopa Mob or Shy Guy squad and made sure to fight every enemy he could find on the way there and back so he gains some levels, guaranteed higher stats bc the roulette is free in the remake and he gets a stronger move than Goomba storm
@@LeMuDX goomba storm is the strongest brawl attack it the 3ds version, as long as the challenge medal is equipped since it receives a x6.25 increase in power. Chuggaa had everything he needed to beat dark fawful in 3-4 turns, he just took off the gear needed to do so. Sure he would have died in 1 hit to some of the attacks, but there was no need to grind or go get anything in order to win the fight more easily.
Something I love about the story is how the stakes genuinely feel like they progressively get higher. That isn't something I really feel when it comes to the other games. And then Brothership came and managed to do it again.
33:52 I NEVER KNEW THERE WAS A WAY TO GET DOWN! I always thought you were stuck there after launching up. Now I gotta replay the game with this in mind.
Yea I thought so too when I tried to backtrack on my save file last year. I tried again this year and figured there’d be a way and yea, always check your mini-maps.
Since we’re finally getting to punch out every tooth in Fawful’s omnipresent smile: I’m genuinely amazed by Emile’s voice acting for Fawful throughout this LP. It’s funny, energetic, and at times even menacing and deranged. I really can’t imagine a better performance for him, and he really brought him to life. EDIT: And on a semi-unrelated note, Emile, your having trouble with 3DS Fawful may have something to do with the fact that this Bowser’s _11 levels below him._
One thing I absolutely love is that in Super Star Saga’s side story, Bowser’s Minions, it was revealed that Fawful used the Mechawfuls on Beanbean Castle Town when the guards were looking for Prince Peasley. He had them already built since long before Cackletta probably enacted her plan. THAT’S how long Fawful was planning on overthrowing her. The first three M and L games did such a good job at building Fawful’s story of becoming a big time villain. From being an underling, to going into hiding, to then nearly plunging the world into darkness. Though Partners in Time is considered to be one of the weaker games in the series, I did appreciate that it had Fawful at his weakest. It was a good lead up into his strike back as a dangerous villain.
@@MikeL-cb4wc Probably a mouse or a raccoon. Something sufficiently gremlinoid for this favagoblin. Also, speaking of "I HAVE FURRY", Fawful probably would keep a bunch of fuzzy forest critters trapped like Doctor Robotnik. Hell, he already did that to Bowser's minions, and even if he didn't, he has so many machines at his beck and call that he might as well have been Robotnik. Honestly, it kinda makes me wish that there were more Sonic RPGs on the DS. The only one I can think of is Dark Brotherhood, which believe it or nor was a BIOWARE game.
Dark Fawful having the incredible Cackletta battle theme to match the regular Cackletta theme of Peach’s Castle was an incredible touch. Not going to lie, I do really like how the castle is even MORE warped and turned mechanical by his various gizmos just to make it a shell of what we know it as is so cool. The emperor has risen from the henchman across the entire trilogy. Now that the Dark Star is complete with Dark Bowser and we see the true might of the beast, Fawful has been lost to the power, which I’m sure he’s fine with at this point because he’s lost his desire. And the tower behind the throne is the alter where the Dark Star would put an end to everything as all fall to its whim. Fawful planned to do it himself, but the Dark Star doing it itself with no host is even worse. It’s the end of the world.
I love that they gave fawful a slower more menacing remix of cackletta’s battle theme. Great callback to superstar saga. but wow that fight was hard even when it was on easy mode the whole time
@@zacharylandrum4789 It very much does, especially the type of fight Fawful's is here. It was specifically crafted for Fawful and this fight ofc it wouldn't fit for a boss anywhere else. Stop acting like boss themes have to be upbeat and fast paced to fit bosses, this theme fits perfectly.
At the same time it also adds a sense of menace especially if you've played these games since the beginning. He started as just Cackletta's lackey and now he's become the biggest threat not just to the kingdom but to the entire world. Heck something I've noticed is that at no point does Fawful ever mention Cackletta in either partners in time or bowser's inside story. It's like she never mattered to him at all and the theme you hear here is an embodiment of how he's essentially outgrown her having menace that she wish she had.
@@nightmarearcade2663 I mean can you blame him, did Fawful ever matter to Cackletta? Like he said in Superstar Saga he's just her toadie, the one doing most of the work while she took the fruits of his labor. Other than Fawful rescuing her spirit I don't think there's a single instance Cackletta really cared about him that much. If anything he's actually done her proud, he's become just like her.
If anything he's surpassed her. After all unlike Cackletta practically everything has gone according to his plan no fake voices or meddlesome mustaches to constantly pester him. He's always a step ahead and even though he was beaten and absorbed into the dark star it's very clear that he's still the mastermind even now.
I was wondering, it was mentioned before that increasing your stats through beans lowers what you can get in the bonus wheel. So, by that logic, wouldn't it be better to use them at the end when you only level up a couple more times rather than when you get them?
Hey Chugga! Just wanted to say I've loved this playthrough and it's really cool to see you playing through one of my favorite games of all time on my birthday! Thanks for this playthrough and I can't wait to see what playthroughs you have in store in the future!
Can I just say, it's pretty cool to fight Fawful in the same Conference Hall where the game started and where the Inside Story... story started as well. The destroyed table in the background is even mirrored instead of somehow being on Bowser's side of the screen, since BOWSER is in the SAME position he's in at the start of the game, but the scene now has him in a "more heroic" light compared to Dark Fawful. Just something I noticed.
*Top of Peach's Castle* Goomther: Wow, we're really high up. Shawn: All of this in pursuit of a fake version of Bowser. Kathie: We have no choice, though. We need to stop that monster and rescue the princess. Bonnie: Can I just say how weird that sounds. 'Rescuing' the princess? Our job is supposed to be kidnapping her. Marni: Maybe we can consider it, kidnapping someone who's already been kidnapped by someone. Bowser: Whatever you call it, there's one thing that's certain. We're going to beat that ugly mug of an imposter and get Peach back! Gah, Fawful really has ruined everything around here! First, my castle, then my minions, followed by that Dark Star, and now this bozo! WORST DAY EVER! Goomther: Good news is, it's almost over. He's got nowhere left to run. Let's finish this, GOO-RAH! Shawn: That Fawful guy got us into this mess, now it's up to us to undo it. SHOO-RAH! Kathie: My liege, whatever happens out there, we've got your back. KOO-RAH! Bonnie: This kingdom's only big enough for one king of the Koopas, and that's you, Lord Bowser. BOOM-RAH! Marni: His power is no match against our combined strength and magic. We will prevail, KOO-RAH! Broggy: BROOF! ROOF! ROOF! Bowser: That's what I like to hear! Now, *cracks knuckles* follow me. ... It's SHOWTIME! Bowser's Minions: FOR KING BOWSER! Starlow's Log Day 47: This is it, the final battle. After Bowser defeated Fawful in the conference room, he escaped and was inhaled by Dark Bowser. Now, the Dark Star is at its full power once more. We cannot let this thing ravage the Mushroom Kingdom. Bowser, Mario, and Luigi are our last hope at saving us all. Star Sprites, please watch over us during this battle, and pray that I get to share this story to you all when this is over. Star Spirit Starlow signing off. Starlow: No turning back now. Mario, Luigi, let's end this, here and now. Mario: Let'sa go! Luigi: Okie-dokie!
News ticker 46 Jason: Alrighty! We everyone, this is the final fight between Bowser and a giant monster! This time, the opponent is PEACH'S CASTLE! Yes, the first battle was a castle and this possible final fight is another Castle! Looks like he went to another Castle after all. Oooh! The blackholes have closed in. I have some minions here to give their regards! Goomther: If this is a dream, I don't want it to end. We are almost at the end of a journey. Kathie: The lord is doing magnificently! Marni: I'm just glad I could help. Jason: OH! HERE'S THE FINISHER! *cinamatic from the remake plays* Jason: FROM ORBIT AND BACK! EAT %#$@ FAWFUL! Billy: Jason, no swearing! Though I do agree. Jason: And with that. I'll see you next time with footage of the finale. *beep* Jason: Bowser... sir. Do you mind if I come along to film your fight with Dark Bowser? Bowser: Hm... should I let other know? OF COURSE! Then people will see how AWESOME the koopa troop is. Come along! Jason: Whew. It's been fun, Billy. Simce the first day. Billy: Yeah. Meanwhile... Gooby: Lord Junior, all missing troops have been reunited. We are ready to siege the throne room. Bast: I hope Dave's okay... Sally: Relax. Bob-ombs can always be replaced. Everyone: *facepalm* Seriously? Kapsci: Matter aside, we're really doing this. The captains are out due to tiredness. ARE YOU ALL READY!? Army behind them: YEAH!!!! *CHEER* Marx: I have goosebumps on my goosebumps. Gooby: Marx? Marx: Yeah? Gooby: It's been fun. Marx: Yeah. Bowser Jr.: Enough ramble. LET'S FIGHT! Everyone: *YEAH!!!*
i love the dark fawful battle theme so much really just shows how distorted he is at this point with the theme being a darker slower version of the classic cackletta theme
There’s something really clever i find about the unification between Dark Fawful and Dark Bowser. You have the artefact of power represented by Dark Bowser while Dark Fawful represents an independent controller Vessel (Bowser & Dark Bowser) and Manipulator (Mario & Luigi and Dark Fawful) it’s an exact parallel for how this unlikely trio came to be in this adventure.
I don't hate the remake but Fawful's Minion does a stellar job of summarizing all its flaws (e.g., slower gameplay for both the player & the game) and how the OG reigns supreme. (It was also the one that did not need a remake)
It CANT be over so soon. Like… it feels like not too long ago this series started. With all of the bad things about the remake, I still like it, especially how they dealt with the final area. Peach’s Castle looking way different, the Dark Star AND Dark Fawful having their own battle themes and even the effects when the Dark Power finally awakens fully. Can’t wait for the finale tomorrow, and OH BOY I’m excited! Your first full LP back after your long break and my god it was the best choice. I even played along on the remake and yeah… a lot of valid points.
If there’s one thing I can give to the 3ds remake, its that they made Peach’s castle more atmospheric. The original made the castle look like the aftermath of a big battle, but in the remake, it looks like the whole castle is slowly being consumed by darkness and turning into this twisted perversion of what was once a pretty and vibrant home…
Interestingly enough, in the Japanese version of Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga, Fawful shares the same battle theme as Cackletta. The song is even called Cackletta & fawful, yet in the English verson, they gave fawful Popple's theme.
Dark Fawful is effectively a dark reprise of Fawful&Cackletta from Superstar Saga. And it fits so well. We're really dealing with a world-ending threat, now the Dark Star has copied Bowser, but is not at full power due to Fawful taking half of it, corrupting him even further.
I am sort of excited to hear you dub over Dark Bowsers dialogue for the next part as someone who sort of loved the Showtime! Animation video that was an adaption of that pre-final fight cutscene.
I actually didn’t know that you could leave the top part of Peach’s castle. I thought for all this time that you were soft lock up there. That’s actually really cool. I learned a few more spots that I didn’t know existed in this game.
Just like with the Dark Star, the remake did the fight against Dark Fawful far better justice, thanks to giving him a unique, sinister, and foreboding battle theme. It's even more fitting that it's a darker reprise of Cackletta's boss battle theme (which Fawful also had in the remake, when he originally had Popple's boss battle theme, oddly enough), since, despite never being mentioned since Superstar Saga, Fawful did start off as just a minion for Cackletta, albeit one who realized he had loftier ambitions, which he took full advantage of in this game. After being bothered and beleaguered by the chortling little gremlin for the whole game, Bowser can finally fight Fawful face to face.
21:37-21:48 Reminds me of a Marcus Guns vending machine quote in Borderlands 3: "I've got bullets with your name on them. Oh, wait, that came out wrong!"
I feel like it should be stated just how good the interior of the Fawfulized castle looks in the remake. That purple and silver color scheme looks downright gorgeous.
I love Fawful as a villain and his fight is great too but oh boy do I hate that stupid DARK ORB ATTACK!!! I can't remember how difficult the attack was in the original game but in the remake I always die to that attack every time I play through the game. Like if you spend too much time trying to find an opening for the goomba, you end up wasting your time and getting barraged and if you are too trigger happy, you get barraged. It also does so much damage.
in the og DS BIS I can confirm Dark Fawful's orb attack's not too difficult to avoid as it has a clear timing to it that makes it pretty simplish to avoid, so its deff not that bad in the original. I can say its deff tricky at first, but it gets easier to deal with in that version on repeated fights. I'm deff unsure about how the remake's version is timing-wise the Star ray attack's deff a bit harder as he has 6 diff variants, and the one where you'll audibly hear an intentional gap in the last shot he does, is one of the trickiest and hardest to avoid out of all of the formations. however, you're actually kinda unlikely to see that rare formation, as you'd prob need to low-level the game or intentionally stall to see that one
It’s finally time to fight Fawful, and y’know, it’s so satisfying to beat up on the dark gremlin, but this fight can be pretty tough, especially if you don’t deal with the helmet fast enough (which you should be able to given the many Minions/Bros attacks at your disposal). Quick attacks from Fawful himself, the potential infinite with the bros and the helmet, the helmet taking away commands, and of course, punching the Goombas past his energy balls is a run killer for many children, including me (he has a chance of dropping the Lucky Charm, good luck). But after this fight, Fawful gets what he wanted, although it’s not exactly how he imagined it. The Dark Star’s power is finally reunited, but under a Bowser coated outside, and next time, it’s time for the clash of Bowsers and the end of this grand adventure!
I think this is the 2ND Let's play that HASN'T been on hiatus...... YET! Since Emile is going to Holiday Matsuri this week. The first let's play to not be on hiatus was Future Connected, I believe.
11:30 chugga, jumping and jamming your head into a ball so heavy that it makes an enemy dizzy wouldn't feel good, it would break your neck or hurt like hell😭😭
fun little fact, if you do what chugga managed to do and get that shortcut before you would even get to outside to the final giant battle, you can do a fun little glitch. If you manage to go into the room where you see Fawful looking for the dark star before heading into the meeting room with the shortcut room the cutscene just skips itself with the camera going over to fawful going into the room with the sound effects playing in rapid sucession as bowser looks up and to the right instead of fully to the right. Completely harmless and interesting to see.
This is it, the Prelude to the end of the Best Adventure ever. Also I can’t wait for definitely see Peach’s Castle in BiS having a similar vibe as the Stone Tower Temple from Majora’s Mask.
reminder, you can get a secret ending once you hit mario, luigi, and bowser all up to level 40 minimum Edit: you can also obtain the Excellent!! (Now with 2 exclamation marks) badge for Luigi and intruder fangs for bowser
It wouldn't happen to be something like this, would it? ua-cam.com/video/20eTvsSRYyg/v-deo.htmlsi=DV6tjOGW6T3vKAB7 You just taught me that there's a secret ending
Kinda sad you didn't show the Fawful fight on the original version just to show how much easier it would be with "proper gear and levels". Funny clip towards the end of course, but I kinda hope the next episode starts with the full fight at least.
At the save block before Dark Bowser, for years i was convinced that was a point of no return, since you couldn't really see the doors that take you back down.
33:50 I just want to point out that between when I got to this point and a few weeks ago (so roughly 13-14 years), I had no idea there was an exit for this tower, let alone TWO exits. I thought Bowser had been locked in there permanently because I couldn't figure out how to get him back through the hole and thought I was stuck venturing the world with the Bros
I never thought I'd feel such satisfaction watching Emile struggle through the 3DS version of all things given how much he trashed the game throughout the playthrough 😂😂
One of my favorite things to come from the remake was Dark Fawful's battle theme. I love that it's a slower and more imposing version of his and Cackletta's battle theme from Superstar Saga. As someone who's nitpicked the original game for having almost no mention or reference to Superstar Saga or Cackletta, I welcomed this addition with open arms.
There is apparently a third variant of Dark Fawful's blaster attack that I bet a lot of people haven't seen, he only shoots three stars in that one but they rotate much quicker than any of the other variants. I discovered this when fighting Dark Fawful with the Challenge Medal on, and yeah, you bet your sweet bippy I chewed through a couple of Retry Clocks because of that infamous orb attack
from what I've seen and played, there's around 6 variants of the blaster attack. the first 2 are the simpler ones. 1 of a full line of stars, or a 2 line segment w/one segment having the red Star. the 3rd's what you've described, via 3 stars and having to memorize the red one. its actually one of the first Dark Fawful uses at half hp to mix things up in DS BIS the 4th's like the 1st, a full line of Stars but longer, and a shorter gap in-between the red Star the 5th's like the 2nd, but there's 3 separated line segments instead of 2. the last, which's really rare, but in low-level is guaranteed to happen at least once. while he's low hp, Dark Fawful will shoot the Stars similar to the full line formation, but you will audibly hear this "delayed" shot, an intentional gap in the last shot which makes the Red Star harder to punch as its right next to that delayed shot. that last one's the hardest to avoid cuz you have to know the timing of Bowser's duck when he rises back up to avoid that one delayed star and punch the red one immediately after
I'm surprised Cackletta isn't brought up at all in this game, but I'm so happy they did a reprise of her boss theme from Superstar Saga in the remake. Also him calling us Fink-rats was a nice call back to the very first fight we had with him.
I might be in the minority with this, but I must say I vastly prefer the DS version. I like his kind of cartoon-ey wackiness. It was always an enjoyable experience and it a very dynamic battle. I like the boss theme and all which has nice nodes to Superstar Saga with the music but I really preferred to have been able to see the DS battle in this video. Maybe it will come up later but the Dark Star battle did it to show both even though it was like 10 seconds. I still kinda wanna see it.
The dark orb attack was harder to deal with in the original. If a goomba hit an orb, it would bounce back and explode if there was another goomba standing in front of you.
0:11 oh- well then thats gonna be fun 1:41 ah dark star wear, its the main wear i have for Mario, i already gave comment on this wear 5:09 ah dark fawful getting his own theme or a remix of what we get from super star saga 6:53 will say i actually have my last save be Before dark fawful so i could Always fight him in both versions 11:04 you can actually target the helmet if you have all of bowsers attack to the point you could even one cycle him with broggy, both the helmet or even just fawful lol 19:37 ah right fawfuls lil special attack that we need to counter with goombas, so much more tatal in the remake than in the original 32:07 this has no real purpose You can not press anything and nothing bad happens to bowser

7:02 The only time in BiS Fawful calls anyone Fink-Rat, contrast to the first game where he hands that insult out like candy.
I like how it shows he is now losing the last ounce of sanity he has left
it goes to show that the facade he built for his brainwashed subordinates is cracking away
He got more creative with his insults over time. He had so long to think about his revenge, why not some insults?
He had to dust off that old gem
Gotta love how Emile neglects to heal Bowser, even when looking at his stats when compared to the Bros after finding all of the beans.
34:55 And that's what you get for neglecting your health.
There had to be consequences for neglecting Bowser’s Health. Penultimate showdown finished and in terms of the main game, this is it!!!
I will gladly rewatch this let’s play over and over.
And I’d say “Bring it Down!” It’s “Showtime!” 🔥🙈🤣
Neat touch: Bowser is standing exactly where he was standing in the tutorial battle of this game (when he was facing Mario).
Chugga was foreshadowing and trash talking retry clocks and he actually needed it 😂😂😂😅.
31:15
Starlow: “This is the absolute worst case scenario!”
Also Starlow: 🙂
7:10 from starting as cacklettas right hand man in superstar saga, to a seemingly harmless bean vendor in partners in time, to a mastermind of his own league by resurrecting the dark star…this theme makes it clear that he wants any fink rats who oppose him to suffer from the fury he has built up all this time
I think in the French translations, it’s hinted that Fawful had plans to betray Cackletta.
@@TheDMan2003It's shown in the Superstar Saga remake he was.
He has fury after all
@@TheDMan2003 he felt like the brains behind the operation, too. She would've been dead so much earlier if not for fawful, and he probably could've ripped her out of Bowser if needed.
Cackletta's plans would not have even gone that far without Fawful. Heck, she (SPOILERS)
could have expired much earlier without Fawful if he hadn't transferred her soul to Bowser.
i can really tell you’ve been having fun with voicing all the characters, bowser and fawful especially. i’ve been having a great time watching it and you can just Hear the smile in your voice with some of these deliveries. absolutely a blast
Of course now Emile uses the retry clock towards the end, it’s totally karma but seriously though. Despite saying this multiple times, this definitely my favorite let’s play that Emile has done.
And can we just add the fact that the combination of the struggle of this fight and the neglecting of Bowser’s health via zoom in is immensely satisfying hilarious. Not saying its my number one because there are many moments that I find it funnier but what an explosive and fiery conclusion to 2024.
And not going to spoil for those who have yet to see it but given Bowser’s dislike of Mario, I think I know what his response is and in typical Bowser fashion, lol!!! 🙈🤡🤣
When Fawful becomes that disgusting little parasite thing after Bowser defeats him, I can't help but think about how much of a fall from grace he had. From Cackletta's right hand, to basically surviving off scraps in Partners in Time, to eventually being reduced to nothing in Inside Story because of his over ambition and eaten by the very entity he was trying to control and used as a power source before eventually committing suicide. A tragic end for his character
Tbf Partners in Time takes place before he became Cackletta's right hand man
So if anything, he started with nothing, became a servant, became a Main Villain, and then was reduced to atoms and eaten by the very thing he went after.
@JosephCeretor Baby Mario and Luigi found him in the sewers under the Mushroom Kingdom in the present and he remarked how they reminded him of adult Mario and Luigi.
So while PiT takes place before Superstar Saga, the present day stuff took place after the events of Cackletta
@Doctor_Pickney I misremembered PiT, that's my bad.
@JosephCeretor he's from the president after superstars saga, not the past before it, and he says the babies look like the "mustaches" that punished him for his villainy to prove this
@@JosephCeretor Lol all good 👍👍
One of the greatest final bosses in any game ever coming up next. People talk up the music, and rightfully so, but the entire fight is just perfect.
I agree, Dark Bowser and Dark Star Core is my favorite final boss of all time, and more than for the music! All of the attacks, the counters, the visuals, the atmosphere, the designs of these characters, i hardly focus on boosting attack power and use the Challenge Medal, so the battle lasts a while for me which I enjoy and ofc the KO Punches to finish him off is amazing!
Game Director: So, we're going to make the bosses in this remake have the Fury condition when they drop below a certain health, giving them a feel of desperation...
The guy who writes Fawful's dialog: *HE HAS FURY!!!*
I love in this game how much they’ve shown Bowser’s minions love and devotion to him. They will literally take a magic bullet for him.
Oh that zoom to Bowser's health at the beginning. This is gonna be great later!
Can I just say the fact that he’s gonna be able to get the main story done before his trip means that he’s gotten two let’s plays main story’s done without a single break back to back. This is legendary
2?
@@Zacman1123Xenoblade Chronicles Future Connected
imagine if the final episode doesn't come out tomorrow
@@deleetiusproductions3497I think we've got at least two more episodes to go, from what I remember
@@saladplainzone Well, I guess there is the postgame. But in terms of the main story, there's only one more episode to go.
The small zoom in on the tiny 40 HP is hilarious
7:11 I've seen some people argue over A Fateful Clash, but I personally liked the song. It's a Dark Reprise of Fawful and Cackletta, it symbolizes how far he has descended into madness compared to his _Superstar Saga_ self. He's no longer some quirky apprentice of Cackletta that wished to overthrow/surpass her, he is a total maniac corrupted by the Dark Star, and he has become one of the world's greatest threats, probably only beaten by Elder Princess Shroob, and the only thing standing between him and his plans succeeding is Bowser and the Bros.
Probably the only Mario villain to be above him in terms of threat level would be Dimentio, if only because the *entirety of existence itself* was at stake in that story, instead of just the Mushroom Kingdom.
@@skaithespirit1184Yeah, I limited comparisons to just M&L, but I do agree that Dimentio EASILY tops the list
It truly fits the end of Bowser's Inside Story and Fawful's character arc, as he has fully descended into darkness.
Fawful is a Beanish in his own right, instead of the lackey of Cackletta/Bowletta. It merely took him longer than he would have liked to reach that apex.
I am all here for Emile finally being given an actual challenge at a boss fight finally- and the fact all it took was a speedrunning-based save file is hilarious. Happy that the attack of him swinging atop the ceiling lamp was shown tho, as I had noticed it was taken out of the 3DS version for a flying pattern. It's SO unhinged to watch Fawful want to be Spiderman so bad in the original. One thing I DO wish that was shown in the OG fight tho- was how NASTY the Dark Orb Portals Attack originally was- the speed is FAR faster & instant than the 3DS version, so performing the counter was SO HARD as a kid, including the goomba counter as well.
100% believe that they should’ve kept Fawful around in the mainline games as Bowser’s own “Bowser.” They contrast each other so well.
Emile not only fails to realize you can choose what to upgrade at each level, he also fails to realize he is low on HP
Not to mention fail to notice that Bowser could attack the headgear separately instead of waiting to inhale it to speed up the boss fight.
29:17 “Bowser, DO NOT throw stones!”
I love this quote!
Chuggaa sacrificed his happiness, using a gimped save file, for the sake of a thematically fitting song. That's dedication right there!
The save file itself was not “gimped” by any means, it seems like he took off the challenge medal because he may have still thought it was making the game “harder” but actually just nerfed bowser’s damage by x6.25.
@@Zepeup It's gimped because he's underleveled and has no attacks lmao.
@@Zepeupgimped is probably the wrong word but the idea is right, he’s playing a speedrun file so it’s way weaker than the DS version he used for most of this LP, his characters are way weaker and he’s missing all of bowsers attacks, IMO he should have gone back and picked up one of the minion attacks like Magikoopa Mob or Shy Guy squad and made sure to fight every enemy he could find on the way there and back so he gains some levels, guaranteed higher stats bc the roulette is free in the remake and he gets a stronger move than Goomba storm
@@LeMuDX goomba storm is the strongest brawl attack it the 3ds version, as long as the challenge medal is equipped since it receives a x6.25 increase in power. Chuggaa had everything he needed to beat dark fawful in 3-4 turns, he just took off the gear needed to do so. Sure he would have died in 1 hit to some of the attacks, but there was no need to grind or go get anything in order to win the fight more easily.
Something I love about the story is how the stakes genuinely feel like they progressively get higher. That isn't something I really feel when it comes to the other games.
And then Brothership came and managed to do it again.
33:52 I NEVER KNEW THERE WAS A WAY TO GET DOWN! I always thought you were stuck there after launching up. Now I gotta replay the game with this in mind.
Yea I thought so too when I tried to backtrack on my save file last year. I tried again this year and figured there’d be a way and yea, always check your mini-maps.
WAIT, THERE IS?! I thought that was a point of no return on my first playthrough!
Yeah, there are even post-game ranks you can get
Since we’re finally getting to punch out every tooth in Fawful’s omnipresent smile:
I’m genuinely amazed by Emile’s voice acting for Fawful throughout this LP. It’s funny, energetic, and at times even menacing and deranged. I really can’t imagine a better performance for him, and he really brought him to life.
EDIT: And on a semi-unrelated note, Emile, your having trouble with 3DS Fawful may have something to do with the fact that this Bowser’s _11 levels below him._
His attacks are slightly different compared to the remake
I think he might play the original then the remake cus the remake has new music as welll I think
His bowser voice is so fitting, and the Toad voice is as terrifying as it should be
Nvm I’m dumb it’s the same for the remake but there is new music
Ngl, Emile would be an amazing VA.
One thing I absolutely love is that in Super Star Saga’s side story, Bowser’s Minions, it was revealed that Fawful used the Mechawfuls on Beanbean Castle Town when the guards were looking for Prince Peasley. He had them already built since long before Cackletta probably enacted her plan. THAT’S how long Fawful was planning on overthrowing her.
The first three M and L games did such a good job at building Fawful’s story of becoming a big time villain. From being an underling, to going into hiding, to then nearly plunging the world into darkness. Though Partners in Time is considered to be one of the weaker games in the series, I did appreciate that it had Fawful at his weakest. It was a good lead up into his strike back as a dangerous villain.
can we also give a moment to aknowledge emiles astounding voice acting? trulu underrated talent of his. :)
"I HAVE FURRY!"
"Uh, don't you mean Fury?"
"FAWFUL SAID WHAT FAWFUL MENT!"
Thank you, that was your stupid joke of the night.
Just to close the early "It is I who nuts to that!"
What would Fawful's fursona be, out of curiosity?
I once made a painting of Fawful of him saying that on accident because I'm occasionally bad at spelling.
@@MikeL-cb4wc Probably a mouse or a raccoon. Something sufficiently gremlinoid for this favagoblin.
Also, speaking of "I HAVE FURRY", Fawful probably would keep a bunch of fuzzy forest critters trapped like Doctor Robotnik. Hell, he already did that to Bowser's minions, and even if he didn't, he has so many machines at his beck and call that he might as well have been Robotnik.
Honestly, it kinda makes me wish that there were more Sonic RPGs on the DS. The only one I can think of is Dark Brotherhood, which believe it or nor was a BIOWARE game.
@@MikeL-cb4wcA fink-rat obviously
Dark Fawful having the incredible Cackletta battle theme to match the regular Cackletta theme of Peach’s Castle was an incredible touch. Not going to lie, I do really like how the castle is even MORE warped and turned mechanical by his various gizmos just to make it a shell of what we know it as is so cool. The emperor has risen from the henchman across the entire trilogy.
Now that the Dark Star is complete with Dark Bowser and we see the true might of the beast, Fawful has been lost to the power, which I’m sure he’s fine with at this point because he’s lost his desire. And the tower behind the throne is the alter where the Dark Star would put an end to everything as all fall to its whim. Fawful planned to do it himself, but the Dark Star doing it itself with no host is even worse. It’s the end of the world.
20:21 Chugga learns why spamming punch is not the best strategy to counter
I love that they gave fawful a slower more menacing remix of cackletta’s battle theme. Great callback to superstar saga. but wow that fight was hard even when it was on easy mode the whole time
It is a nice callback, but the melody feels a bit too slow to be a boss theme.
@@zacharylandrum4789 It very much does, especially the type of fight Fawful's is here. It was specifically crafted for Fawful and this fight ofc it wouldn't fit for a boss anywhere else. Stop acting like boss themes have to be upbeat and fast paced to fit bosses, this theme fits perfectly.
At the same time it also adds a sense of menace especially if you've played these games since the beginning. He started as just Cackletta's lackey and now he's become the biggest threat not just to the kingdom but to the entire world. Heck something I've noticed is that at no point does Fawful ever mention Cackletta in either partners in time or bowser's inside story. It's like she never mattered to him at all and the theme you hear here is an embodiment of how he's essentially outgrown her having menace that she wish she had.
@@nightmarearcade2663 I mean can you blame him, did Fawful ever matter to Cackletta? Like he said in Superstar Saga he's just her toadie, the one doing most of the work while she took the fruits of his labor. Other than Fawful rescuing her spirit I don't think there's a single instance Cackletta really cared about him that much. If anything he's actually done her proud, he's become just like her.
If anything he's surpassed her. After all unlike Cackletta practically everything has gone according to his plan no fake voices or meddlesome mustaches to constantly pester him. He's always a step ahead and even though he was beaten and absorbed into the dark star it's very clear that he's still the mastermind even now.
Glad you showed both unique boss themes! Fawful having a distorted dark version of Cackletta’s theme is so fitting!
I was wondering, it was mentioned before that increasing your stats through beans lowers what you can get in the bonus wheel. So, by that logic, wouldn't it be better to use them at the end when you only level up a couple more times rather than when you get them?
Hey Chugga! Just wanted to say I've loved this playthrough and it's really cool to see you playing through one of my favorite games of all time on my birthday! Thanks for this playthrough and I can't wait to see what playthroughs you have in store in the future!
I guess you could say he's taking a Bow, sir.
Can I just say, it's pretty cool to fight Fawful in the same Conference Hall where the game started and where the Inside Story... story started as well. The destroyed table in the background is even mirrored instead of somehow being on Bowser's side of the screen, since BOWSER is in the SAME position he's in at the start of the game, but the scene now has him in a "more heroic" light compared to Dark Fawful. Just something I noticed.
*Top of Peach's Castle*
Goomther: Wow, we're really high up.
Shawn: All of this in pursuit of a fake version of Bowser.
Kathie: We have no choice, though. We need to stop that monster and rescue the princess.
Bonnie: Can I just say how weird that sounds. 'Rescuing' the princess? Our job is supposed to be kidnapping her.
Marni: Maybe we can consider it, kidnapping someone who's already been kidnapped by someone.
Bowser: Whatever you call it, there's one thing that's certain. We're going to beat that ugly mug of an imposter and get Peach back! Gah, Fawful really has ruined everything around here! First, my castle, then my minions, followed by that Dark Star, and now this bozo! WORST DAY EVER!
Goomther: Good news is, it's almost over. He's got nowhere left to run. Let's finish this, GOO-RAH!
Shawn: That Fawful guy got us into this mess, now it's up to us to undo it. SHOO-RAH!
Kathie: My liege, whatever happens out there, we've got your back. KOO-RAH!
Bonnie: This kingdom's only big enough for one king of the Koopas, and that's you, Lord Bowser. BOOM-RAH!
Marni: His power is no match against our combined strength and magic. We will prevail, KOO-RAH!
Broggy: BROOF! ROOF! ROOF!
Bowser: That's what I like to hear! Now, *cracks knuckles* follow me. ... It's SHOWTIME!
Bowser's Minions: FOR KING BOWSER!
Starlow's Log Day 47: This is it, the final battle. After Bowser defeated Fawful in the conference room, he escaped and was inhaled by Dark Bowser. Now, the Dark Star is at its full power once more. We cannot let this thing ravage the Mushroom Kingdom. Bowser, Mario, and Luigi are our last hope at saving us all. Star Sprites, please watch over us during this battle, and pray that I get to share this story to you all when this is over. Star Spirit Starlow signing off.
Starlow: No turning back now. Mario, Luigi, let's end this, here and now.
Mario: Let'sa go!
Luigi: Okie-dokie!

Jason: Alrighty! We everyone, this is the final fight between Bowser and a giant monster! This time, the opponent is PEACH'S CASTLE! Yes, the first battle was a castle and this possible final fight is another Castle! Looks like he went to another Castle after all. Oooh! The blackholes have closed in. I have some minions here to give their regards!
Goomther: If this is a dream, I don't want it to end. We are almost at the end of a journey.
Kathie: The lord is doing magnificently!
Marni: I'm just glad I could help.
Jason: OH! HERE'S THE FINISHER!

Bowser: Hm... should I let other know? OF COURSE! Then people will see how AWESOME the koopa troop is. Come along!
Jason: Whew. It's been fun, Billy. Simce the first day.
Billy: Yeah.
Meanwhile...

Gooby: Marx?
Marx: Yeah?
Gooby: It's been fun.
Marx: Yeah.
Bowser Jr.: Enough ramble. LET'S FIGHT!
Everyone: *YEAH!!!*
Am I having a Mandela effect or did you change Bonnie’s chant?
@@philkirshenbaum8867 I changed it to BOOM-RAH since BOO-RAH fits more with the Boos than the Bob-ombs.
i love the dark fawful battle theme so much really just shows how distorted he is at this point with the theme being a darker slower version of the classic cackletta theme
I'm so excited for the final battle, it was such a memorable experience as a kid and I'm excited to see it through Chugga's playthrough
Like how these last few episodes have just been titled after the big boss fight happeninngin each one. It fits.
Considering how the remainder of the episodes that we'll see will each have a boss fight in them, it definitely makes sense.
Good observation.
HE HAS DARKNESS!
And he has FURY!
And chortles!
And Beef
Keyblade!
@ Kingdom Hearts reference? Real original.
There’s something really clever i find about the unification between Dark Fawful and Dark Bowser.
You have the artefact of power represented by Dark Bowser while Dark Fawful represents an independent controller
Vessel (Bowser & Dark Bowser) and Manipulator (Mario & Luigi and Dark Fawful) it’s an exact parallel for how this unlikely trio came to be in this adventure.
Someone has been watching Fawful's Minion, I can tell.
I love that Dark Fawful’s theme in the remake has motifs of Fawful and Cackletta’s theme in superstar saga.
34:47 oh that’s 100% going to be an famous chugga clip omfg
The zoom in at Bowsers low health at the beginning caused me genuine dread. I was like "Emile, please heal, Emile PLEASE!" XD
I don't hate the remake but Fawful's Minion does a stellar job of summarizing all its flaws (e.g., slower gameplay for both the player & the game) and how the OG reigns supreme.
(It was also the one that did not need a remake)
Same here, the remake has a lot of crao stacked against it that makes one think "Why?"
@@That_One_Gaming_Guy Yup.
Can't help but agree.
It CANT be over so soon. Like… it feels like not too long ago this series started. With all of the bad things about the remake, I still like it, especially how they dealt with the final area. Peach’s Castle looking way different, the Dark Star AND Dark Fawful having their own battle themes and even the effects when the Dark Power finally awakens fully.
Can’t wait for the finale tomorrow, and OH BOY I’m excited! Your first full LP back after your long break and my god it was the best choice. I even played along on the remake and yeah… a lot of valid points.
Next time it's the finale with our hint of the next let's play, ... And then everything else
If there’s one thing I can give to the 3ds remake, its that they made Peach’s castle more atmospheric. The original made the castle look like the aftermath of a big battle, but in the remake, it looks like the whole castle is slowly being consumed by darkness and turning into this twisted perversion of what was once a pretty and vibrant home…
33:01 Agreed, thats one of the biggest missed opportunities. Both fangames Smash Flash 2 and Smash Crusade have this costume
I find it hilarious how Emile has fury over fighting Dark Fawful
Interestingly enough, in the Japanese version of Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga, Fawful shares the same battle theme as Cackletta. The song is even called Cackletta & fawful, yet in the English verson, they gave fawful Popple's theme.
I believe they fixed that in the sss remake.
Dark Fawful is effectively a dark reprise of Fawful&Cackletta from Superstar Saga. And it fits so well.
We're really dealing with a world-ending threat, now the Dark Star has copied Bowser, but is not at full power due to Fawful taking half of it, corrupting him even further.
I am sort of excited to hear you dub over Dark Bowsers dialogue for the next part as someone who sort of loved the Showtime! Animation video that was an adaption of that pre-final fight cutscene.
I actually didn’t know that you could leave the top part of Peach’s castle. I thought for all this time that you were soft lock up there. That’s actually really cool. I learned a few more spots that I didn’t know existed in this game.
Goombas with Fawful's face on them? Call them Fawfoombas. It would just be a Goomba with green face paint and swirly glasses.😂
17:10 Popple in superstar saga too!
Don't you just love call-back boss themes?
In Kirby Planet Robobot, the game has quite a few as well. If you know, you know.
Nothing says "That's Emile" like demonstrating the Retry Clock in the next to last episode of an LP because of an oversight.
Just like with the Dark Star, the remake did the fight against Dark Fawful far better justice, thanks to giving him a unique, sinister, and foreboding battle theme. It's even more fitting that it's a darker reprise of Cackletta's boss battle theme (which Fawful also had in the remake, when he originally had Popple's boss battle theme, oddly enough), since, despite never being mentioned since Superstar Saga, Fawful did start off as just a minion for Cackletta, albeit one who realized he had loftier ambitions, which he took full advantage of in this game.
After being bothered and beleaguered by the chortling little gremlin for the whole game, Bowser can finally fight Fawful face to face.
People bring up Dark Star having its own theme in the remake. I wasn't even aware Dark Fawful got one too. No one ever brings that up.
21:37-21:48 Reminds me of a Marcus Guns vending machine quote in Borderlands 3: "I've got bullets with your name on them. Oh, wait, that came out wrong!"
31:20
Smooth and satisfying transition back to the original.
Yeah, too me a half second to even realize (namely until he got the first block)
I feel like it should be stated just how good the interior of the Fawfulized castle looks in the remake. That purple and silver color scheme looks downright gorgeous.
I remember I used to sing the "Fawfully-doo!" lines in the same theme as Scooby-Doo Where Are You
Taking on the fury of Fawful in 3D!!!
Can't believe we're already here towards the end. This has been such a great LP!!
28:50 this was… an excellently done scream.
I love Fawful as a villain and his fight is great too but oh boy do I hate that stupid DARK ORB ATTACK!!! I can't remember how difficult the attack was in the original game but in the remake I always die to that attack every time I play through the game. Like if you spend too much time trying to find an opening for the goomba, you end up wasting your time and getting barraged and if you are too trigger happy, you get barraged. It also does so much damage.
in the og DS BIS I can confirm Dark Fawful's orb attack's not too difficult to avoid as it has a clear timing to it that makes it pretty simplish to avoid, so its deff not that bad in the original.
I can say its deff tricky at first, but it gets easier to deal with in that version on repeated fights.
I'm deff unsure about how the remake's version is timing-wise
the Star ray attack's deff a bit harder as he has 6 diff variants, and the one where you'll audibly hear an intentional gap in the last shot he does, is one of the trickiest and hardest to avoid out of all of the formations.
however, you're actually kinda unlikely to see that rare formation, as you'd prob need to low-level the game or intentionally stall to see that one
It’s finally time to fight Fawful, and y’know, it’s so satisfying to beat up on the dark gremlin, but this fight can be pretty tough, especially if you don’t deal with the helmet fast enough (which you should be able to given the many Minions/Bros attacks at your disposal). Quick attacks from Fawful himself, the potential infinite with the bros and the helmet, the helmet taking away commands, and of course, punching the Goombas past his energy balls is a run killer for many children, including me (he has a chance of dropping the Lucky Charm, good luck).
But after this fight, Fawful gets what he wanted, although it’s not exactly how he imagined it. The Dark Star’s power is finally reunited, but under a Bowser coated outside, and next time, it’s time for the clash of Bowsers and the end of this grand adventure!
hii
I think this is the 2ND Let's play that HASN'T been on hiatus...... YET! Since Emile is going to Holiday Matsuri this week.
The first let's play to not be on hiatus was Future Connected, I believe.
11:30 chugga, jumping and jamming your head into a ball so heavy that it makes an enemy dizzy wouldn't feel good, it would break your neck or hurt like hell😭😭
Trulkly loved this series!
This is it. Tomorrow is the finale of Mario and Luigi Bowser's inside story. This is going to be amazing. SHOWTIME!
The voice distortion makes dark bowser sound a little like neo metal
TIME FOR ONE OF THE BEST THEMES OF THE MARIO AND LUIGI SERIES.
4:50 I actually owned that same color DS Lite when I was younger. Ah, memories.
Fawful is such a good boss in this fight, it feels so satisfying to just beat the crap out of him after he taunts you all game. so satisfying
fun little fact, if you do what chugga managed to do and get that shortcut before you would even get to outside to the final giant battle, you can do a fun little glitch. If you manage to go into the room where you see Fawful looking for the dark star before heading into the meeting room with the shortcut room the cutscene just skips itself with the camera going over to fawful going into the room with the sound effects playing in rapid sucession as bowser looks up and to the right instead of fully to the right. Completely harmless and interesting to see.
This is it, the Prelude to the end of the Best Adventure ever. Also I can’t wait for definitely see Peach’s Castle in BiS having a similar vibe as the Stone Tower Temple from Majora’s Mask.
Love the distorted & menacing theme of Cackletta for Fawful in the 3DS Remake. So Good for the ears, Man. Huge respect for showing this!
reminder, you can get a secret ending once you hit mario, luigi, and bowser all up to level 40 minimum
Edit: you can also obtain the Excellent!! (Now with 2 exclamation marks) badge for Luigi and intruder fangs for bowser
Really? I wondered if there was something secret that happened if you got bowser to 40, but I figured it was a secret rank like the bros
It wouldn't happen to be something like this, would it?
ua-cam.com/video/20eTvsSRYyg/v-deo.htmlsi=DV6tjOGW6T3vKAB7
You just taught me that there's a secret ending
The game is almost over, which means the LP is almost over... Oh, boy...
Kinda sad you didn't show the Fawful fight on the original version just to show how much easier it would be with "proper gear and levels". Funny clip towards the end of course, but I kinda hope the next episode starts with the full fight at least.
I guess you can say we’re almost in the final!
At the save block before Dark Bowser, for years i was convinced that was a point of no return, since you couldn't really see the doors that take you back down.
This is why we invest in speed, folks.
20:22 I have bad news, Emile.
You just lost a boss in the remake… on *Easy Mode.*
Ouch.
That's what happens when you're 11 levels weaker than your opponent, have no Special Attacks and have barely any good gear.
33:50 I just want to point out that between when I got to this point and a few weeks ago (so roughly 13-14 years), I had no idea there was an exit for this tower, let alone TWO exits. I thought Bowser had been locked in there permanently because I couldn't figure out how to get him back through the hole and thought I was stuck venturing the world with the Bros
I can also imagine Fawful acting like Mario and Luigi in Dark Bowser. That would be pretty funny
I never thought I'd feel such satisfaction watching Emile struggle through the 3DS version of all things given how much he trashed the game throughout the playthrough 😂😂
One of my favorite things to come from the remake was Dark Fawful's battle theme. I love that it's a slower and more imposing version of his and Cackletta's battle theme from Superstar Saga. As someone who's nitpicked the original game for having almost no mention or reference to Superstar Saga or Cackletta, I welcomed this addition with open arms.
34:49 What a stylish and cinematic way for the great Fawful to finally defeat his adversary.
There is apparently a third variant of Dark Fawful's blaster attack that I bet a lot of people haven't seen, he only shoots three stars in that one but they rotate much quicker than any of the other variants.
I discovered this when fighting Dark Fawful with the Challenge Medal on, and yeah, you bet your sweet bippy I chewed through a couple of Retry Clocks because of that infamous orb attack
from what I've seen and played, there's around 6 variants of the blaster attack.
the first 2 are the simpler ones. 1 of a full line of stars, or a 2 line segment w/one segment having the red Star.
the 3rd's what you've described, via 3 stars and having to memorize the red one.
its actually one of the first Dark Fawful uses at half hp to mix things up in DS BIS
the 4th's like the 1st, a full line of Stars but longer, and a shorter gap in-between the red Star
the 5th's like the 2nd, but there's 3 separated line segments instead of 2.
the last, which's really rare, but in low-level is guaranteed to happen at least once.
while he's low hp, Dark Fawful will shoot the Stars similar to the full line formation,
but you will audibly hear this "delayed" shot, an intentional gap in the last shot which makes the Red Star harder to punch as its right next to that delayed shot.
that last one's the hardest to avoid cuz you have to know the timing of Bowser's duck when he rises back up to avoid that one delayed star and punch the red one immediately after
21:34 - "Goombas with Fawful's face on them", huh?
Fawfoombas!
Fawful’s orb barrier attack is, in my opinion, the most brutal attack any boss has ever used in BIS!
Chugga at the start of the series: Money is really tight in this game.
Chugga for the past like 10 episodes: USELESS GOLD!
I'm surprised Cackletta isn't brought up at all in this game, but I'm so happy they did a reprise of her boss theme from Superstar Saga in the remake. Also him calling us Fink-rats was a nice call back to the very first fight we had with him.
I might be in the minority with this, but I must say I vastly prefer the DS version. I like his kind of cartoon-ey wackiness. It was always an enjoyable experience and it a very dynamic battle. I like the boss theme and all which has nice nodes to Superstar Saga with the music but I really preferred to have been able to see the DS battle in this video. Maybe it will come up later but the Dark Star battle did it to show both even though it was like 10 seconds. I still kinda wanna see it.
The dark orb attack was harder to deal with in the original. If a goomba hit an orb, it would bounce back and explode if there was another goomba standing in front of you.
0:11 oh- well then thats gonna be fun
1:41 ah dark star wear, its the main wear i have for Mario, i already gave comment on this wear
5:09 ah dark fawful getting his own theme or a remix of what we get from super star saga
6:53 will say i actually have my last save be Before dark fawful so i could Always fight him in both versions
11:04 you can actually target the helmet if you have all of bowsers attack to the point you could even one cycle him with broggy, both the helmet or even just fawful lol
19:37 ah right fawfuls lil special attack that we need to counter with goombas, so much more tatal in the remake than in the original
32:07 this has no real purpose
You can not press anything and nothing bad happens to bowser
He forgot to heal?
Fawful did in fact, has FURY!!
