Four playable, plus escort Toad/Toadettes.

You have 8 characters

Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi and Rabbid versions of all of them. You use 3/mission.

You start with Mario, Rabbid Peach and Rabbid Luigi and unlock the rest as you progress with Luigi unlocking next.

I wish there was an option for turning off all the loving anime in Puyo Puyo Tetris. I end up picking the fish guy as my character because his yelling isn't as drat annoying as the other characters.

Why in the hell does a puzzle game even have characters and a story anyway? I'm stacking blocks and blobs, I'm not saving the world.

Dr. Mario had Mario (Dr.), and the viruses. The story was "Mario go kill the viruses". You're stacking pills onto viruses.

Tetris had no story. You're stacking blocks.

Puyo Puyo Tetris has a full cast of squeeky-voiced animes, some dumb poo poo about a dimensional rift, spaceships crashing, brainwashing, etc. You're stacking blocks and blobs.

It's been the standard in Puyo Puyo games for as long as I can remember. Also good pick. Fish guy yells "suck my penis!" whenever you clear three lines and now you can't unhear it.

Dr. Mario 64 has a story mode that's filled with Wario Land 3 characters for some reason and it's rad. Both Wario Land and WarioWare characters are good and should be in spinoff games.

Mario XCOM seems like the type of game that's way more fun to watch someone else play than to actually play yourself.

Honestly if Mario + Rabbids was just Mario + Mario characters I would buy the poo poo out of the game but I just can't get past those loving rabbids.

I'm a vtuber expert
Mario Xcom sounds great but the rabbids completely kill it for me.

Also the roster for Fire Emblem Warriors is trash and I'm not interested unless they knock it out of the park with great DLC pulls.

Though they'd have to basically say hey Overbite, here's all the characters you like also some cake, knock yourself out.

Yep same. Gimme Mario and Bowser and even rando characters like Geno in a tactical RPG and I'd buy that poo poo in a second.

But it has to have Rabbids, even focus on them, because its not even a Nintendo game. Its an Ubisoft game. Yuck.

What I've seen from watching this stream looks really really good, I just can't imagine myself ever learning a game like this enough to want to play it. Rabbids seem pretty innocuous and are no different than goombas or whatever.
