But that would be the perfect time to have Jimmy T. as Wario's partner. He loves sports.
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door Remake announced (2024)

Technically he does, but that's in the same capacity as Palutena, or Mipha, or Kapp'n. Any compatible amiibo got a drawing.
Lmao I never knew this! Are there also differences in TTYD boss battles?
Not that I'm aware of, no. Some attacks in the Japanese version can't be superguarded, which is one of the only boss differences I saw when looking at this list of regional differences:
That was a really great watch, thanks for sharing! The partners are the heart and soul of the series, and the video did a great job illustrating how much depth Paper Mario 64 has while also being deceptively "simple." You can also tell dot had a lot of fun editing that video, really nice touch with the color paper aesthetic.
Man, no wonder that lady took two hours to beat.
What was up with these changes, anyway? I've always known they were there but in retrospect, this is probably why M&L had such bloated boss fights.
This was at the peak of Nintendo especially in the west being very kid coded, and this was one example of them just adding the hp because that means it's "more difficult".
It should be noted that Partners in Time's initial release was actually the US one, so technically they didn't change the fight to be longer but adapted it to be shorter for the later Japanese and European releases. Although with only one month between the Japanese and US releases, it is still possible that the higher HP stat was purposefully specifically implemented in the US version only. I guess only people at Nintendo would know for sure.
In retrospect, she's also one of my favorite Mario RPGs bosses, tbh. But back then she was tough!
Best Soundtrack, Best Visuals, Best Gameplay, Best Boss Fights, Funniest
It's the best one I don't make the rules
The NA version released first. They realized the issue and fixed it for the other subsequent releases.
Hm, I always thought of TTYD as being categorically above PM64 and the M&L games - it's a more sophisticated game in terms of gameplay mechanics and the writing/humor by a long shot. Probably Nintendo's best written game ever.
It also just feels larger in scale and scope than the others, taking into account all the places you get to visit, and the plot gets weirdly dark for a Mario game (probably less so than SPM though)
Great game and I'll be sure to play it even for $60.

Amazon Italy keeps saying that my copy will be dispatched next week, I don't know if there have been shortages. Might go out and buy from Gamestop.
Reviews coming in tomorrow, right?
Also just saw plenty of ads in Paris! Was kinda surprised since I've only ever seen ads for like Zelda or Mario Wonder.
Y'all seen some ads in your cities? I know there's some in Tokyo (based off Reddit).

I'm amazed that the game hasn't broken street date yet. I know it is not as high profile as ToTK, but I was expecting leaks by last Friday.
He's a villain in Mario DDR. He just puts the story in motion, but is superceded by a multitude of characters until it's reveal that of course Bowser was behind it all.
A Freezie is a bigger villain than Waluigi in the game.
$25 is an amazing price for SMRPG. There's been a strange backlash against it but it's one of the best Mario RPGs.
That's a fantastic price, but yes, TTYD takes priority here 😌
For $25? Sure.
My big issue with SMRPG is that it's more like a graphics/audio overhaul running over SNES code than it is a remake. I was hoping for more of a remake.
Yep. I was OK with that with Metroid Prime but I think SMRPG could have used a bit more.
Now that we're 48 hours from the game's release in Japan, the OT is up!
