Mario and Luigi: Dream Team

Scary mountain battle!
Date played: May 22nd
Platform: 3DS
Session fun rating: 7/10

I played just a little bit of Dream Team, but enough to beat a giant boss. I reached the end of the dream area and had another of the amazing giant boss battles where the 3DS must be turned to it's side to battle using the touch screen. The boss was none other than the mountain itself... I learned a new move for this fight where Luigi tosses Mario into the air, then I make rapid circles on the touch pad to spin Mario and send him crashing into the boss. These battles are typically pretty long, but in the end I managed to take him out and get out of the dream.

As we woke, we discovered that Bowser used his dream stone to summon a giant castle to help his complete his world domination. It's clear that Peach will be a prime target, so the plumbers will travel to the southern beach to find her and keep her safe. There are now warp pipes around the world to help alleviate the length of travel.
