Paper Mario, also known as "Pap Maru" in some otaku circles, is nintendo's best spin-off series of all time. The games are turn based RPGs with two dimensional characters in a three dimensional world. They play with this idea in a lot of fun ways, like turning Mario into a paper airplane to cross a big gap, or turning sideways to slip through jail bars.
So far, there have been:
A REALLY GOOD N64 GAME
THE SINGLE BEST VIDEO GAME OF ALL TIME
It's a video game version of a play about an adventure mario had and all the props are really papery. Whenever you go into combat you end up on stage and there's an audience cheering you on! If you do stylish things they fill up your super meter and you can use better moves. The alternative involves rotten tomatoes being thrown at you and no one likes that.

IT'S SOME WEIRD PLATFORMER GAME THEY THREW ON THE WII THAT WASN'T AS GOOD AS THE OTHER TWO BUT HAD SOME NEAT PUZZLES AND REALLY DUMB VILLAINS
And now, presenting the one, the only
PAPER MARIO STICKER STAR
A return to form, turn based tactics and quirky puzzles. I'm going in mostly blind so I don't have all that much to say about it!
People are telling me it's going to be a new kind of system, no sidekicks, consumable attacks that you find all over the world, no actual character progression through traditional Leveling mechanics. Sounds neat!
The game will launch on the Nintendo E-Shop in North America in at 11:00PM central time (it's 9:20 at the time of this post) and requires between 4000-5000 blocks of SD card space.
This is The Game that got a lot of people (myself included) to buy a 3DS. Who's hype??

I'll probably pick it up sometime but not until christmas or maybe a bit after.

They got rid of sidekicks and there isn't really much dialogue I've read also!
I was really excited for this originally and I'm sure it's still good fun but I'm a bit bummed it isn't the sequel to the first two that I thought it was.
NO THANKS
It's the new tagline
3DS FC: 4699-5714-8940 Playing Pokemon, add me! Ho, SATAN!
Lack of sidekicks is disappointing but as long as there are other memorable characters I'll forgive it.
never having to worry about whether a store has something in stock is awesome
but at the same time something makes me feel weird about paying 40 dollars and not getting a physical product
That is all.
"Sandra has a good solid anti-murderer vibe. My skin felt very secure and sufficiently attached to my body when I met her. Also my organs." HAIL SATAN
I like the sticker system. You level up by getting more pages thus more attacks.
as memorable as you can be without any actual dialogue i guess
unless the reviews i've read are overblowing that part
reminds me of superstar saga 2, where you had to use items to do bros attacks
I didn't like that at all
unless stickers don't work like that
I don't know if they do or not
I only read a couple of reviews, but they both said good things about the writing, so I'm assuming there's a reasonable amount of dialogue. But if the reviews you read said differently then I guess we'll just have to find out. Because honestly, I would probably buy this game no matter what the reviews said.
also i loved super paper mario fuck the haters
whhhhy
I kind of like it because I hate managing SP/mana/whatever in games, but at the same time I am also the guy who stockpiles items in games to the nearest 10/50/100 and refuses to use them unless he absolutely has to.
haaaaaaate consumable attacks
Speak for yourself.
Steam: Chagrin LoL: Bonhomie
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa(that's kind of cool)aaaaaaaaa
It's not running out that bothers me
even if I have 99 of everything I just don't like using up finite resources for attacks
healing items, whatever
is that too much to ask
Now I learn there is no leveling or partners and little traditional hilarious Mario dialogue
Eff that noise
progress bar is the orange box filling up from the bottom up with slightly oranger colour
and yeah i think it's like 14k blocks in the 2gb sd card that the thing came with
this one was 4k, layton was 6k
i'll probably get a 32gb one sometime between this game coming out and the next 3ds game i want to download
I see no colour differentiation, so either my download speed sucks or my colour blindness is acting up again.
i have pretty bad wifi and it's about 40 minutes to download a game
just give it time i guess
i agree that they could have a way way better UI
Still have to bring it around to my folks place, where I set up my n64 for my nieces.
