# Summary
Timelines and worlds collide as aliens invade the Mushroom Kingdom, sending our titular heroes back and forth through time with their baby-selves. Control all variants of the Mario Bros. with the four face buttons on the DS to solve puzzles and wallop enemies. A classic from my childhood.
# Acquisition
A friend gave me a ragged copy as a birthday gift. The label was peeled off. Years later, I bought a complete in box copy off eBay and transferred the save from my beat up copy to the much nicer cart.
# Memories
I vividly remember my best friend growing up owning this one. I wanted it so bad. I was with him at the final boss and the queen's alien text is finally translated. Instead of rushing into the battle, we painstakingly wrote down the runes and translated the Shroob language so we could understand it on subsequent playthroughs. We never did that though.
