Players awaiting the arrival of Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam are now able to pre-download the digital version from Nintendo’s 3DS e-Shop. The game is 450 MB, or 3,600 blocks of data, and priced at $40. 3,600 blocks may sound like a hefty amount, but a simple 2GB SD card, even the one that comes with the 3DS, should have far more space than that.

Preloading a digital game is a bit different thanย reserving a physical copy. Players will receive the game on their system immediately, then that game will unlock and become playable the moment it releases on January 22nd. ย This allows players to start the game anywhere from a few minutes to a couple of hours ahead of those who didn’t preload it.
Tons of gameplay videos for Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam have been uploaded to Youtube showcasing the dynamics of the game, which functions primarily like Mario & Luigi with some Paper Mario elements added in.
