Paper Mario Colour Splash’s release date is drawing ever closer so its no surprise that Nintendo of America has decided to ramp up its marketing efforts. The latest video titled Paper Mario: Color Splash – Rescue V: Episode 1 follows the Rescue Squad as they take a look back at Mario’s adventure on Prism Island. You can check out the first part below.
Thanks, Alphabean11

This gave me one of the best laughs in a good while.
I’m gonna say it, this game is actually looking pretty fun. It seems to have fixed some of the mistakes from the last game and, even though they’re still toads, they have something we want: PERSONALITY. There’s going to be a level up system as well, so that’s another thing fixed, as well as unlimited attacks.

OMG! 5 DIFFERENT COLORED TOADS!!!
AHHHHH!!!
IT’S SO UNIQUE, CREATIVE and DIVERSE!
WOW!! I AM SPEECHLESS!!
I SURLY HOPE THAT THIS GAME I FILLED WITH TOADS AND NO OTHER CHARACTERS!! THE SAME SIDE CHARACTER AT EVERY TURN AND EVERY SINGLE AREA!!??? SIGN ME UP!!
OMG! :D
Best sarcasm ever! lol
“Sarcasm”?? What are you talking about!? I can’t think of anything I would love more in a game than a constant repeat of the same character! It will never get boring!
:D
I’m sure there will be characters other than toads. For one I can almost guarentee there will be a diverse group of enemies to fight with a bunch of boss fights aswell. Your basing your opinion on very short previews from the game. Even if there aren’t many unique characters the game still looks fun. Paper Mario on the N64 had a bunch of unique side characters, but honestly that wasn’t my favorite Paper Mario game. There were alot of repeating enemies and repetitive battles. Having unique characters doesn’t automatically make a Paper Mario game fun. Im going to give this game a chance, it honestly looks really good.
Bosses don’t exactly count because they’ll obviously be different.
Most of us are being a bit presumptuous because no other characters have been seen so far, so that raises a huge red flag.
From a development prospective, I can tell they are just rushing this thing out. With most of Nintendo working on the NX and NX games, there aren’t many devs available to work with the a Dying console. That plus a tense time constraint…
This is why they use easy design-able models; not bringing in diverse characters/personalities, only implementing simple battle tactics etc etc.
:/
Diversity is unimportant as long as the characters are actually distinct personality-wise.
Only morons care about making a group “diverse” through appearance, the PM and TTYD companions weren’t good characters because they looked different, they were good characters because they were well-written and had interesting personalities.
If these Toads are written right there’s no reason for them to not be Toads.
It’s a complaint for a reason though. Having the same NPC is really repetitive and lazy (obvi). The mario universe is all about characters, there are literally hundreds! And the dev team chooses to use the same boring ones. Even the Mario&Luigi series is being plagued with this poison.
Instead of giving us GOOD games like Pokemon Snap for virtual console, Reggie is too busy trying to sell trash like this & FedshitForce instead! I said it once & I’ll say it again: Reggie is a fucking puppet for Nintendo of Japan, not a voice for the American fans that want a true Metroid & Paper Mario! *sigh*
Wait.. how is this Reggie’s fault again?
He’s the guy in charge of Nintendo of America now, unless it’s just a false title to keep up appearances. He should have some kind of pull to get us some nice virtual console games like Pokemon Snap at this point.
All Nintendo of America is responsible for is crap localizations, shit launch dates and piss poor ads, NoA doesn’t make a single creative decision other than filling a game’s translation with dumbass memes and feminazism.
Yeah. It’s silly of me to expect better from NintenD’OH of ‘Murica. They haven’t been reliable for years now. :/
Er, Reggie really has nothing to do with the making of these games. He can’t make them make PKMN Snap 2. That’s hot his place. He’s just the NOA CEO.
I was talking about giving us Pokemon Snap for virtual console. Surely he can do something to get us that game on virtual console. As for the other stuff, he can still voice the opinions of the American fans. Instead, he just makes excuses for NoJ’s bullshit, like FedshitForce or Other M.
Isn’t it already on VC? I have it.
It’s only for Wii’s VC.
It’s only for Wii’s VC.
Damn it! I thought it didn’t post the first time! D:<
I can’t take Reggie seriously as a manager if he’s just gonna bend over for the owners. As a manager, he has the right to ask the owner to do something to make the business better for the customers. I’ve watched enough Bar Rescue to know the manager of a place can do SOMETHING to help the customers even if he doesn’t have the final say.
I dont know, I was never really that fond of the Paper Mario games, so maybe my opinion is skewed. But this game looks good to me, not sure why everyone is hating on it honestly. I do understand the hate for Metroid Prime Federation Farce.
If you understand the hate for FedshitForce, it shouldn’t be too hard to understand the hate for Color Splash. If you can, go play the original 2 Paper Mario games before playing Color Splash & you’ll see for yourself.
I can’t believe this, but I think I actually want this game…
It’s beautiful.
Yea, this game looks good IMO. The original Paper Mario games were good games, but they were just that. Good games. Everybody acts like they were just the best games ever made and no other games can live up to them. They were just good. This game looks better than every Paper Mario game to date with the exception of the first one. I will be buying this game.
Lol
Even if, like me, you don’t care much for this series you can’t honestly say PM is better than TTYD, PM is basically SS with a level system.
I definitely want to play color splash. I loved the old paper Mario but I’m open to changes with any franchise that’s the only way progress can be made even if it does end up bombing Nintendo will learn. As long as it has entertaining dialogue like paper jam and decent game play ill be more than happy with it
