I mean. ok, so I'm really unsure how to respond to this, the graphics look absolutely beautiful. But as we've seen time and time again, it's not the graphics that make the game, the enemies look alright, creative enough. I'm not too certain about that battle system, it looks like the -sticker mechanic- from sticker star, granted I never tried sticker star, I'm just calling it as I see it. The battle music is straight up awful, please change it right now. Something about the paper mario series as a whole that I've always fallen in love ith is how it usually does music. THERE IS SO MUCH PERSONALITY IN IT, and I didn't hear that here, I will say that the battle music is certainly unique though, in that it doesn't fit AT ALL. The game field itself, is beautiful, I like the style, I love the colors. I do wish it had more characters rather than just toads and maybe being more similar to Rogueport from PMTYD but that's a minor gripe and maybe thats just this particular area of the game (though I doubt it since every clip I've seen thus far is merely filled with toads) The partner looks frankly to be lacking in any sort of personality. or style. Like Navi only less helpful. From the dialogue, I didn't really see any overarching story that this played a part in, it just looked like a simple case of, hey do this, because. yeah, sort of thing. Which considering we don't know how far along in the game it is, is totally alright, and understandable considering they probably don't want to reveal any details of the plot of the game, but at the same time. it all just felt very very flat. Now what I do see in this, is potential, a lot of it. But I do not think they're hitting it just yet. If when it comes out I hear good enough reviews though I'd be willing to get a wii u just to play this. If it ends up being -a real paper mario game-.
Edit: also, the pig thing just didn't sit well with me. felt like overkill

I don't want to sound like an angry ungrateful gamer, but I just cannot see this game going well with other Paper Mario lovers like myself. This game is going to be for casual Nintendo fans who like quirky adventures without the RPG elements. The only thing nice i can say about this game is the visuals and innovation. Sure these two qualities are good for a series like Paper Mario. but on the other hand the main components of Paper Mario have been taken away (RPG elements, unique NPCs and species not seen in other Mario games, diverse and strategic combat, PARTNERS. A Paper Mario game where mario goes around painting the world (Mario Paint is see what you did there Nintendo) would be fun if the original game mechanics were still present IMO. Also, Toads must of had a baby boom in the Paper Mario universe because when the hell did toads start being the main NPC/ ONLY NPC species?

Pros: some decent music, it's HD, there's some charm. very very limited though and nothing spectacular
Cons. yikes lol: it's sticker star 2, no partners, just lifeless toads, thing objects are breaking logic and are needed to beat the bosses, bosses are just the koopalings and bowser, no cooking, no open world, no chapters just levels, generic level design, stickers are just cards now, boring and useless battles, no unique enemies, very little dialogue, luigi once again just there to use the cutting whatever gimmick, over the top paper art style, no badges, paint gimmick doesn't add to story, no story, probably can't play as bowser or peach again either, no pit of trials, even the title screen is dull and lifeless. So much more flaws lol why get this game.

Why would they continue to go with card based combat. That was the biggest complaint with sticker star and yet they didn't learn from their mistakes. All we want is turn based rpg elements. With this style of combust there is no sense of progression and achievement like we have seen with previous games such as thousand year door or the original paper mario. We just want a regular rpg!

After seeing all these samples of it I'm really starting to want to like this game, but the combat system is just so. unfinished.
Also the dialogue is cute but could we seriously have another character besides -toad but a different color-. Boos are a STAPLE MARIO ENEMY FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, YOU COULDVE USED THEM!

I thought the ghost toad was just gonna be a ripoff of the ghost toad from TTYD but nope it's just toad collecting. You have broken my heart once again nintindo that ghost toad was my favorite character but I never got to get the game and I thought I could find another but it's just toad collecting.

Really on the fence about this game. The visuals and the music are astonishing but I'm getting Sticker Star flashbacks with the combat system, and I'm still not 100 percent on the world map concept.
I'll still buy it though, because it looks like a great game to play over the autumn at uni.

oh good, collecting paint instead of stickers, to paint. stickers.
I felt like ML paper jam was an apology for the last paper mario's horrific watered down suck-fest. but instead, what we have is a good mario RPG series, and a bad one.
Man I miss TTYD. That game was excellent.

I'm cautiously optimistic about this game. I wish it were a classic turn-based RPG like the first two, but the Wii version was great despite all its differences, so maybe this game will redeem the Sticker Star combat system for me. Or at least distract me from its flaws.

Game looks fun but I'm already unsettled by a few things:
-That a random parakoopa willingly locked himself in a cage, probably for eternity since his owner is a ghost
-That oddly grim 'death' of the hammer bro

Well the toads have special shirts so that's something. Definitely a step up from sticker star, but stuff like the pig and battle music that completely kills the spooky atmosphere just kills it.

I'm a little disappointed. It looked great up until they got into a battle. Plus this area feels like a rehash of that Excess Express sequence where you bring the ghost his diary.

That battle system looks seriously flawed and something to avoid. Did he really defeat that boss using one card? The lack of strategy and skills may fit very well with the casuals.

Great footage for -Paper Mario: - Color Splash, Nintendo's brand new IP, devoid of any relation to any older game's they've made.
Those visuals look mad rad!

Ugh, I'm so torn. On the one hand, I haven't especially enjoyed a Paper Mario since Thousand Year Door. On the other, this. looks half-decent.

Another Mario series down the drain. First Mario Party, now this! What's next Nintendo? Not like you guys actually care. You'll make money anyways.

Piggy bank is confusing.
Why does Mario have to beat the color out of everyone anyway? Normally he just jumps the crap outta them.
