Ubisoft’s Mario+Rabbids Kingdom Battle is Still Nintendo’s Mario
When images of Mario+Rabbids Kingdom Battle were leaked ahead of the games official announcement at E3 2017, the masses of Nintendo fans online were pretty skeptical about what they were looking at.

As I've dealt with numerous Nintendo embargoes in the last 3 years, there is often a 30-60 min cap on captured footage. Ubisoft, however, is being a bit more lenient, and that's ok with me!
