Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door Remake announced (2024)
- Thread starter vestan
- Start date
In a group chat of friends in my area. Many "gamers" in there, but a lot of people who barely touch games. Vast majority are getting TTYD, tho
Anecdotal I know, but hoping this bodes well for more Paper Mario RPGs

Yes! Avoid looking at the clips/trailers, imo they show too much ;) but you'll love it!
Also, just saw some marketing ads in Paris! Anyone else seen ads in their cities? I know Tokyo has some, too!
I think I saw some for Wonder, and my town really isn't that big. Haven't been much outside these last few days so who knows.
Just got an email that my game voucher pre-order has been confirmed. Does that also mean that pre-load is ready to go?
They aren't showing too much, at least imo.
Nintendo has been hyping this up. I love seeing them do this marketing blitz in the weeks building up to release. They must be feeling confident in how it will perform.
Preloads are usually up a week before release, I believe, so yes.
Wonder if this just applies to Walmart or all stores.

It just dawned on me that they quietly moved from Friday releases to Thursdays. That's...gonna be tough, hah.
Yeah, this is such a weird change. Friday made perfect sense in that it's the last day people are done with work. For me, not only are Saturdays my last work day, but Thursdays are usually my busiest, so I may not get home until like 6pm, which gives me barely any gaming time before having to go to work the next morning.
they even got a song for Peach sneaking around the fortress 😭

The one time Amazon's no prime one day delivery will work out for me (hopefully). If amazon's track record with my deliveries keeps up, I'll recieve the game on Friday, meaning I'll be done for the week instead of facing a whole day of temptation to play.
I really don't mind it for this game since I played the original countless times.

Will give this game a chance. It may be my fourth favorite game in the paper mario franchise (5th and 6th are color splash and sticker star, the latter I didnt bother with) but it has been a while.

Yeah I never knew why they took this out of TTYD, so it is nice to see it return.
I'm playing through Paper Mario (N64) for the first time right now and about at the end of the ice palace segment so not TOO much of the game left. I think I may have burned myself out on Paper Mario right before the TTYD remake 😂
Paper Mario is the only one of the reputable ones I hadn't beaten yet (I doubt I'll ever bother with Color Splash or Sticker Star) and I think it's great but clearly it's a lot like TTYD

You can tell the sound team for this game carried over from Origami King. The type of chord progressions used in this track was all over that game; the exact same descending guitar was used in the King Olly boss battle.
It was intended for TTYD but there was buggy code where it only worked if Mario was vertically below the panel (which is impossible without glitches).
My first play through I want to use the new soundtrack all the way through but on subsequent play throughs I definitely plan on switching between the old and new A LOT to see the differences.
The best part of the Origami King was the music so it's awesome to see them use the same composer from that game to rearrange the original soundtrack of TTYD.
Also FIve more days!!!

if you liked mario rpg i feel like this is a straight upgrade to it in nearly every way.
Imo, TTYD is by far the best Mario RPG there is. It's similar to Mario RPG in that it shares a similar humorous tone (but the game gets darker, too). It's a lot longer, too, compared to that one.
As for PiT. Personally, I like it, but I agree with you. TTYD is 100 times better to that one — the only game it can compare to is, imo, Superstar Saga (another top notch RPG).
But really, you're in for a treat.
For the record, Partners in Time is considered a weak entry in both Mario & Luigi and the overall Mario RPG pantheon -- I wouldn't use it as a measure of quality.
There's plenty Mario RPG and PMTTYD have in common from timed hits, tongue-in-cheek references and comedy and episodic narratives, but you can expect a meatier story/sense of world, a wider smorgasbord of sidequests, and more involved combat with equippable Badges and an interactive "theater" system (You dodge props and attack hecklers!). You're in for a treat!
I saw on Twitter that there's one part in the Boggly Tree where this can still be done without glitches, but that's also situational.It was intended for TTYD but there was buggy code where it only worked if Mario was vertically below the panel (which is impossible without glitches).
As is Dream Team (along with Superstar Saga and Bowser's Inside Story, but those aren't hot takes).
I agree with that too. Would probably still put SMRPG a bit above Paper Jam though.
I can see why people would put SMRPG below games like M&L: PiT and M&L: Dream Team, but personally I disagree. While I really like the latter two, they have too many issues for me to ever put them above SMRPG.
