Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door remake coming 2024

I was personally hoping for a remake of Paper Mario 64, but this is awesome too.
Me too I hoped for the 64 one.
Attention all paper Mario fans: our time has come at last 😎
Another Mario RPG remake? Nintendo really showing some love to these classics. Maybe the next Paper Mario game will return to form.
Ok now people can shut up about the remake not coming or not existing anymore, 😭 honestly hoping the next paper Mario RPG has a mix of modern and old and and just relies on a decent battle system.
Can I get some fries to go with that salt?
Graphics wise it doesn’t look much better than the 20 years old game , thats what disappoint me.
Maybe you need glasses.
Indeed the Gamecube was released in 2001 so is 22 years.
Not gonna lie, the new talking sound effects kinda ruins it for me. I’ll stick with the og.
I missed out on TTYD the first time around and I’m not willing to shell out $150+ for a used copy that I can’t verify still works, so I’m excited to see it get a remaster coming out next year. I’ve heard nothing but good things about TTYD, and I’m not missing it a second time.
This game cemented the Paper Mario series as one of the big players in the RPG world. I freaking envy you for going into with new eyes.
The heavy use of ‘Everything is paper !’ graphics are an eyesore. Only a few locations look like a dedicated remaster of the OG instead of a high quality origami project. :/
Have anyone else noticed how the controller face buttons in the trailer are colored identically to the SNES’s (JP/PAL) and New Nintendo 3DS’s face buttons? Red A-button, Yellow B-button and Green Y-button (the X-button is not shown in the trailer).
I’m wondering if they’re planning on bringing back that color scheme for Nintendo controllers in the future, since they’re color-coding the buttons like that for this game.
Good to see TTYD finally coming to a modern console. This was probably the hardest of the popular Nintendo classics to play (via legal means), as the game would often sell for well over $100. I don’t know which game now takes the lead as the Nintendo game most in need of a modern port.
I would say the fire emblem games on GCN and Wii.
Would’ve preferred the OG Paper Mario first THEN this one.
