    This video takes a deep dive into the tumultuous history of the Paper Mario franchise. From its acclaimed beginnings with Paper Mario and The Thousand Year Door to the controversial shifts with games like Super Paper Mario and Sticker Star, we explore the ups and downs that have divided fans. Was the backlash against later entries justified, or did nostalgia blind some fans to the games' merits? We delve into the creative decisions, sales figures, and fan discourse surrounding each mainline entry. The video also covers the recent announcement of a Thousand Year Door remake and what it could mean for the franchise's future. Get an in-depth look at one of Nintendo's most polarizing series.

      Same but I think they are completely how the visuals make the game run at 30fps and I think it’s so very frames animated is smoother and I don’t understand why fans are complaining about that like the Mario and Luigi fan never complained about the bowser inside story remake runs at 30pfs so I just don’t understand why the they complain about TTYD remake bot being 60fps like that original game

    the problems with modern paper mario are character limitation and bad battle mechanics.
    Sticker star and Color splash were notorious for the lack of individual and unique characters, origami king tried at least to compensate but ultimately the humor did not carry the games
    You could argue about the battle mechanics all day but from sticker star onwards battles just weren't fun anymore, they had no appeal and became mandatory roadblocks instead of fun challenges. They should have been removed and replaced with puzzle overworld boss segments and normal puzzles
    SPM is more a spinoff than a main series title in that regard, it did something different but was a cohesiv and fun experience that was wholesome and fun to engage with, nothing felt like a drag except maybe the return to chapter 6 after the world was ruined man that long walk really was overkill
    but sticker star and later entries gave you more and more reasons to avoid the battle mechanic all together, running into an enemy and fleeing despawned them so no need to battle, they only gave coins, attacks were limited and you could run out of them. DOing battle hardly gave you a reward needed to progress, you were fine skipping them for the most part and that's just flawed.
    Well the wii also sold like 3 times the amount of units. the GC simply had no instalbase and PM TTYD was released shortly before the console died... The remake already had periods where it was sold out on american Amazon, I can tell that the remake might outsell the entire series due to the enormous switch instalbase.
    Pretty sure people wouldn't have minded a sequel to SPM too just saying anything but what sticker star was.
    the fact people were pissed at sticker star too was that it was literally shaping up to be a TTYD sequel and then suddenly when the fire natio--- I mean changes happened... like nobody could have foreseen that.

    Super Paper Mario is my favorite in the series. I was never a HUGE fan of turn based rpgs, although I will deal with them for Mario games alone. I love Paper Mario 64...never played TTYD. I have always wanted to because of hearing how good it was, but never could get myself to buy a copy for $150+ so I'm really excited about finally being able to play it. Never had a Wii U so don't know anything about Color Splash or Sticker Star. I actually really enjoyed Origami King though too. I doubt anything will compare to SPM for me because I loved not having to stop the action for turn based gameplay, but I'm stoked to get to play TTYD after all these years.
