Bowser's Minion is way better than I expected.
The gameplay is simple but it's fun to customize your minion teams. And the plot is almost stupid, but it is stupidly fun. Characters' dialogues are pretty fun. In fact, I'm enjoying this part of the game more than the main game.

review please! I havent played this series but sounds like yet another cool switch title. Polygon more or less seems to describe it as 'same as original but more'
this might be a good entry into my next JRPG type game. I've really neglected 20+ years of nintendo games and the GBA deserves getting played a bit. looks great.
