Paper Mario: Color Splash General Discussion

so very painfully true



Don't forget these, along with their different colored versions, as well as kid toads.
 
I realllllly doubt that this game will be good, especially after I saw the fan like in Sticker Star but I can hope

People were saying the same thing about Star Fox Zero, but now a lot are changing their minds about it. I'm gonna stay optimistic about Color Splash, at least for the time being...
 
Bowser pretty much confirmed to be the main villain; you can see Mario pulling on Bowser Tape near the beginning of the trailer to unfold the bridge.

Why did they have to let miyamoto near this paper mario rip :(
 
Spoilers: If Bowser is built up to be the bad guy, but is instead revealed to be brainwashed by the REAL Big Bad, then I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER Nintendo!
 
I plan to stay optimistic about this because at the very least it's going on Wii U so I expect some amazing graphics.

Who knows, maybe it'll be like De Blob? That game was so much fun.
 
It's ok I'll pretend that paper jam is a paper mario game because its more like the old paper mario than sticker star (and super paper mario too but that game is good)

its not the sticker mechanic i had a problem with actually, its the combat system. It is actually as far from a rpg as they could get, there is no point to battling enemies. you cant have that in any game let alone an rpg game
 
Can't we just go back to having sassy partners and stage-based combat? I seriously don't understand why they can't top TTYD, it's certainly possible but they just refuse to go the extra mile.

TTYD had the best characters, the best worlds, and the best dialogue of any game I've ever played. I honestly don't even want a "remake" because I'm sure they'd totally destroy it.

i will be happy with a rerelease
 
Gamexplain did a 25 minute analysis on Paper Mario Color Splash
Wow, what WON'T they do a long ass analysis on these days?

Give them a pile of trash and they'll do a 30 minute analysis on that.
 

This video is fantastic, please give it a watch.

But seriously, Nintendo needs to get their **** together. More recently, all of the Mario games have just been too easy and too boring. I get the reason for it, Nintendo is trying to appeal to it's younger audiences, but at least release some tougher, longer, more developed games like the earlier ones. I'm not just talking about the Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi games, no siree! I'm talking about all of the games in the past 2 years, excluding Mario Maker. That one was good, but it's idea was made over a decade ago. Quit making up crappy mechanics and bring back the good stuff! Get it together, Nintendo. Please, the fans want the good stuff back.

This. The fun part about the old Paper Mario games was leveling up and equipping stuff to do different attacks. The fact that you could one-shot most baddies with a "thing" sticker PLUS no exp OR partners really ruined it.

i never said the stickers were good, they were just better compared to useless battles or no partners

I very highly doubt they will, but I really hope Nintendo fixes what they did in Sticker Star, oh my god, it hurt to just TYPE the name, and go back to the classic TTYD, or at least Super Paper Mario. I'm also a little surprised of how they are releasing another Paper Mario game this soon. I know that Paper Jam isn't a full Paper Mario game, but it has pretty much all of the requirements to be one.
nintendo knows what they are doing the mario & luigi series has 5 solid games under its belt, they are good games with a great battle system and some unique puzzles albeit sometimes easy.

super paper mario was different, but a good game and had a great story, it was a mix of classic mario and rpg and they knew about that. the 3d gimmick was actually pretty fun. of course it doesnt compare to the first 2 but it is good as a stand alone game
 
I'm actually thinking about replaying Sticker Star and then the original to see how I really feel about it (since I haven't played it in ages):whether that's actual boredom or just agreeing with most people that it sucks/getting equal enjoyment from both of them or actually loving the original so much more. It's been so long since I played TTYD/SPM/PM but I don't doubt that I truly did love them, considering I beat the original like 7 times, but since it's been so long and I've played "meh" stuff I guess I've been desensitized to what a good game is like.
