In light of the fresh screenshots, I need to express how happy I am to see my favourite Mario (sub-)series go portable.

It definitely looks identical to the first game in the series (on the N64) which is a great thing in my books as it's still my personal favourite. I'd put money on the fact that it's going back to it's RPG roots and for that reason I'm almost as excited for this as I am for Donkey Kong Country!

Anyone else anticipating this as a launch title?

I love Nintendo for making this game.

Apparently the different battle options (the Jump/Hammer boxes) look like they're floating in mid-air with the 3D effect, so says ONM.

Just looking at those screenshots you can see the potential for 3D. I love Paper Mario so this will be interesting. It's a new game right? Or is it a remake of the original?

It's an entirely new game.

Be excited. NOW.

I think it might be a remake of the orignal, but I can'T remember a ChompChomp as a partner, but I haven'T played th egame since around the time it was released (There I slept at a friend'S three weekends in a row and we played it during the night..good times )

The graphics look beautiful, maybe better than TYD, just slightly more pixelated...

[JezMM]

This is definately a new game, or at the very least an enhanced remake with new stuff (doubtful though, as they out and out stated Starfox is a remake - they would have done the same with this).


Super excited. I love Paper Mario. Super Paper Mario was nice but I've been gagging for a new one - especially a new PORTABLE one.

[Scheming Minor]

Absolute fangasm.

You have a Chain Chomp buddy this time too!

[SonikFusion UK]

Thank you, thank you so much Nintendo.
And, it would look beautiful in 3D (The pop-out the screen 3D XD)

[MarcelloF]

If they use that 3D from that DsiWare game here this will be kinda cool: http://destructoid.c...176552#prevnext

You would be able to move the 3DS around so you can see whats behind the cards and stuff.

I'm so excited When's the 3DS coming out?!

[Nix]

Yes another Paper Mario game, oh and what's this? It's not 2-D, why thank you so very much Nintendo! I want a 3DS and this game now, preferably a red 3DS please.

[SuperLink]

So fucking stoked for this. By the time I got into the series I was worried it was already dead! D:

[Diogenes]

Ah, nice, a proper Paper Mario game. SPM was...not so good.

The rough edges to the graphics would usually bug me, but it actually kind of reminds me of the first Paper Mario, which is nice. Kinda weird, I know. A chomp partner is cool, but, uh...he's looking a little generic...

[Blue Blood]

Mario can has chain chomp buddy?


I see it being fucking brilliant. And it's back to being RPG. So glad the series ain't dead.

[Octarine]

Ah, good. I only just picked up Thousand-Year Door a couple of weeks ago, so I'm in the perfect position to be excited for a new Paper Mario.

...guess that means Mario & Luigi is done, then. I'm fine with that, as long as they can bring in Yoko Shimomura to do this game's soundtrack. Please, Nintendo?

[AdventChild]

I'm really excited for this and a chain chomp as a partner is pretty sweet. Though hopefully you'll get more party members, can you? I really want a Shy Guy on my team.

[Crystal Kingfisher]

I never played any of the Paper Mario games (except Super Paper Mario, which I didn't like), but I might get the 3DS version.

Also, @Octarine: Yeah, they are done with Mario and Luigi (unfortunately), because

Spoiler

Fawful died at the end of M&L3, so they can't make another M&L game without him.

P.S. The Mario and Luigi trilogy are the only Mario RPGs I've played. (I do not count Super Paper Mario as an RPG)

I doubt that's the reason; I mean, Fawful was only barely in Partners in Time, after all. I just don't think they'll want to crowd a game system with two different Mario RPG series.

You really should pick up Thousand-Year Door if you have a Wii. Having played Super Mario RPG and the first and third Mario & Luigi games as well, I can say pretty honestly that Paper Mario has my favourite gameplay style. I still need to try SPM, though... I know it's not regarded too highly, but I just really want the chance to play as Peach again.

[ThErEwArDiScHeEsE]

Cool, never played a Paper Mario game. SPA was just too 'goth' for me.

I'm interested in the storyline. (The new Paper Mario, not Super Paper Mario.)

BTW, I really want another Mario and Luigi game. The third one is one of my favrote mario games. (Probably because it gave me an interst in Bowser.)

I can'T think of any game with the abbreviation SPA , so I'm assuming you mean Super Paper Mario, so if I'm wrong correct me... How was that Goth? oO

[speedfreak]

Why does it look blurry like the N64 game instead of clean like the thousand year door?
