Nintendo has shared a new trailer for Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, giving us a behind-the-scenes look at the moment the poor beasty lizard realised he'd somehow swallowed two whole plumbers. Yikes.
The game is set to arrive on Nintendo 3DS on 11th January in North America and 25th January in Europe, with pre-loading just becoming available on European stores. It's thanks to this new pre-loading option that we've been treated to this new trailer and, while it's a little on the short side, we love any excuse to see Nintendo plonk its characters into real-life situations. Give it a watch below.
If you're after even more Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey content - what an unnecessarily long name - you might be interested in checking out these gameplay clips that were recently discovered on the title's Japanese website. Each one shows off just some of the tricks you can pull off in battle.
Will you be picking this one up? Or do you tend to favour your Switch over your 3DS these days? Share your thoughts on this game's upcoming arrival in the comments section below.

A battle inside Bowser's body ?!
Big Bowz energy.
This is honestly kinda funny.
I miss Wart... Bring him back please!
I am really surprised this isn't on the switch
Poor Bowser, that's a dangerous invasive species he's got inside
Has this got stereoscopic 3D?
@nesrocks
Wart was actually in the original Doki Doki Panic so I wouldn't expect it.
That's one way to clean some plumbing....
I love this game. I would say I am about 70% complete on the DS version. It's a big, long game so I have no desire to repurchase. I suggest finding a cheap DS version of the game and play that.
I'll get it mostly for the Bowser Jr. And Koopalings story.
And he probably has stress knowing that the woman he loves dose not love him back and he has 8 kids to provide for.
Hope this comes to the switch
Hmm, I could've sworn that Japan already made this ad years ago for the original Bowser's Inside Story.
Either way, it's still gold.
He did get a sticker, it says, "Pipe up!"
3DS? Come on, Nintendo. Every time they release a 3DS game, I keep thinking, surely that's the last one?
There's a Brexit joke to be made somewhere here....
Well I have the original game which I haven't played so really I need to be playing that instead. At least the battery life on the DS lite lasts around four times longer than my 3DS.
I have this on DS and it was a really great game. It was fun having Bowser as a main character. If you haven't played it, I can't recommend it enough.
@nesrocks Wart, Tatanga, Wario, Smithy, Cackletta, Princess Shroob.
Get one more villain and you literally have an eight world Mario game’s worth. Trying to think of one that’s not from Paper Mario or a minion of Bowser (who would be world eight). I’d go with Fawful, but he’s Cackletta’s minion.
A remake of a game the 3DS can already play. Nice...
Bowser's Body is Ready!
Looks like he needs a take some tums for that Italian heartburn
Bring on more DS/Wii/N64 ports to 3DS! But with stereoscopic 3D please.
@Delibheel He’s gonna get a treatment of coin therapy to keep those parasites at bay.
Folks complaining about this are about 9 months too late, since they showed it in the spring. That’s like acting surprised you’ve got a newborn when you knew it was coming. Drink some water and it’ll help mitigate all that excess sodium 😂
Can’t wait to pick this one up; love this series! Hoping we get Partners in Time next!
@Kamalot his Reggie is Body.
@Roam85 you forgot Birdo.
@Prizm why would they need to end it? The 3DS is terrific and it sells well with great games; why would you want the good times to end?
@ElectricGhost The 3DS won't last forever, dude. The Switch also sells great games like BOTW, Splatoon 2 and Smash Bros Ultimate.
@Alantor28 He never said it would, or that it was better than the Switch. For now the 3DS still selling like hotcakes though. It's a nice cheap option for those who can't afford the Switch yet, so of course they're gonna keep it alive a little longer. It's not like it's stealing from the Switch either. The Switch gets the big heavy-hitting titles that will move units, while the 3DS is getting the smaller titles like remakes and minigame collections to tide over 3DS owners and eventually entice them over to the Switch. It was especially smart to release Luigi's Mansion on the 3DS, because now people who enjoyed the remake will see Luigi's Mansion 3 on Switch next year.
Bowser Gets A Scary Check-Up In The Latest Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story Trailer
This title would be better written as follows:
Bowser gets a scary check-up in the latest Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story trailer
NL = over use of capitalization in titles
Soooo...Mario and Luigi are a disease?
Every time I see him next to a human I cringe for poor Peach. Size difference squick. If he tried to kiss her he end up with a Peach tumor as well.
@ElectricGhost - "why would they need to end it?"
Because unfortunately, 3DS games are dead in the water and graphically outdated as soon as they're released. You'll likely never see that game released ever again because it was made for a system with dual screens, unique controls etc, and would be too clunky for Nintendo to port to the Switch as a virtual console.
What a waste of all that hard work by the developers when so many more people could've enjoyed their game in beautiful HD on Switch and even future consoles.
Bowser turning up for his usual STI check up at the GUM clinic.....
They can't do a Sonic movie in this style?
This is the next game on my list after:
Luigi's Mansion
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
I am gonna buy it, but it goes on the pile of shame just like the Superstar saga remake. I mean, I don't have time for those games yet. Oh, and my 3ds is in pretty bad shape.
