The '''Arcade''' is a minigame replay area in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''. Located in the clouds above any [[Lakitu Info Centre]] in the game, it's accessible via a green pipe to the left of the entrance and hosts the Battle Ring, Papercraft Battle Ring and Attackathon machines, which let players replay boss battles, papercraft battles and Bros Attack endurance mini games respectively.

The bros can also buy Lakitea for 20 coins from the nearby shopkeeper. This will fully heal all members of the party.

==Games==
===Boss Battle Ring===
*[[Battle Ring (Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam)|Battle Ring]] - This mode allows the player to rematch bosses previously found in the game.  This mode is split into two arcade machines: one for normal bosses, and one for [[papercraft]] bosses.
*[[Attackathon]] - This mode consists of several endurance minigames using [[Bros. Attacks]] and [[Trio Attacks]].


Just like [[The Gauntlet]] from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and the [[Battle Ring (location)|Battle Ring]] from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', the Boss Battle Ring lets players refight tougher versions of bosses defeated earlier in the game.

When battling a boss in the Boss Battle Ring, the player will get given a limited amount of items, which will lower their final score if used.  They can choose their [[Battle Card]] deck like normal, but they will only start with 10 Star Points.  Finally, both Assist Mode and Easy Mode aren't usable in the Boss Battle Ring, and will be automatically disabled when a battle starts.
 
===Attackathon===
 
Similar to the Mad Skillathon in the [[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team|previous game]], the Attackathon is a series of Bros Attack endurance mini games. Unlike in the previous two games, however, there are no prizes to be gained from the mini games themselves. Instead, the game's Expert Challenges system has challenges set for getting A and S ranks in each of the Attackathon mini games, with the points being used to buy gear from the Expert Challenges/points shop.

Cards with an M icon can be scored only by Mario, and ones with an L icon can be scored only by Luigi. Hitting a card with a POW Block icon will score all of the cards on the screen at once.  Cards with the clock icon will stop time briefly. Hitting a card with a Bowser icon is the same as letting a card fall to the ground. In between rounds, giant enemies will appear.  You only get one shot, so try to hit as many as you can! Aim carefully! If 3 cards hit the ground, the game will end.''

| align="center" |''Press A to begin swinging the cannonball, and then press A again to release it.  You get 5 tries to pop as many balloons as possible. Use the Circle Pad to aim the cannonball in the air, and aim for the flying balloons to increase your score multiplier. Watch out for the Parabombs, and be sure to correct for wind.  If you miss the target completely, the game will end.''

As you approach a fortess, press A to swing Luigi's hammer.  If you've built up enough power, you'll destroy it and move on. Watch out for mud puddles!  The timing of Luigi's footsteps will slow down. When enemies appear, press A at the right time to avoid them. The game ends if you run into an enemy or fail to destroy a fortress.''

| align="center" |''Use the Circle Pad to help Mario and Luigi navigate along the rails.  Be sure to press forward at all times! You can jump over gaps in the rail by pressing A. At the end of the line, you'll have a chance to speed up even more by passing over several Dash Panels. If you hit all the Dash Panels, you'll have a chance to smash a big target at the end for even more points. If you miss a Dash Panel or run into a Thwomp, your run will end. Pick up bonus points along the way by smashing the smaller targets.  How many can you hit?''

Note: Mega Thwonk is listed before Toad Trail in the Challenges list, but after it in the Attackathon select menu.  There is also a C ranking (if the player gets between 0 and 999 points) and a B ranking (between 1000 and 1999 points), but neither give you Challenge points.
 
===Papercraft Battle Ring===
 
Like the Giant Battle Ring in the previous game, the Papercraft Battle Ring lets the player replay any papercraft battles these beaten across the course of the game.

*The [[Koopalings]], [[Bowser]], his paper counterpart and [[Shiny RoboBowser]] are the only bosses not fought in the Boss Battle Ring. However, Wendy, Roy, Larry and Ludwig appear in Dry Bowser's boss battle, albeit without their usual gimmicks.

Arcade (Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam)
The Arcade

The Arcade is a minigame area in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam. It is located in the clouds above any Lakitu Info Center in the game, and can be reached via the green pipe to the left of the center's entrance; it can only be accessed after going to Sunbeam Plains for the second time. All of the arcade machines within resemble the Nintendo 3DS and the New Nintendo 3DS.

Similarly to the Challenge Node from Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, it hosts two extra modes: the Battle Ring and the Attackathon. The Bros. can also buy Lakitea for 20 coins from the nearby shopkeeper, which will fully heal all members of the party.

Games[edit]

  • Battle Ring - This mode allows the player to rematch bosses previously found in the game. This mode is split into two arcade machines: one for normal bosses, and one for papercraft bosses.
  • Attackathon - This mode consists of several endurance minigames using Bros. Attacks and Trio Attacks.
