I don't mind that. I lost my original copy. I hate myself for not taking care of my original copy.

Not without a walkthrough. You needed to do about 5 minutes of treadmill to
get the code
I have no issue with people saying they didn't like Super Paper Mario, but to say it's "just a regular platformer," you've got to be kidding me. Did you really play it? I don't know too many "regular" platformers like Super Paper Mario.
I would be okay with this, and I still have my original copy, haha.

Imagine Paper Mario for the N64, but remove anything interesting from the story. Now imagine battles being completely meaningless and you need to collect items to even jump or use your hammer and by the time you get to the desert boss you've maxed out your coins. Also imagine that there are no partners and bosses require certain items to beat them
I may or may not hate Sticker Star

I'm okay with this too. Compared to Sticker Star, at least Super Paper Mario went a different route while still keeping things interesting and fun.

If it was a remake it wouldn't have a working title of "Paper Mario Wii U" plus there's no point in remaking a paper Mario game anyway.

Are we talking about this bit? Or I missed something?
It's been a long time since I've wanted a rumor to be true this badly.
I've been wondering if a new Paper Mario title was in development for the past few years, and I was hoping to see something during the E3-related Directs we've had the last couple years.
I love TTYD but I've recently replayed it and have access to it, so I'm hoping that if this rumor is true, it's about a brand new title rather than a remaster. I think they should release TTYD as an emulated title for Wii U for those who want to play that (amazing) game.
My only request is that this hypothetical new game is closer in style to the first two games.

No. The series still has a lot of potential if they actually listen to fans and make a TTYD sequel.

I'd actually be more intrigued by something not using the original formula down to a tee, but the last two attempts at that were the weaker pair so I'm in a bind here.
Tried and true safe formula is probably the better way to go at this point, I just hope they can find a way to kick things off without it being too familiar. Another slow opening crawl of basic jumps, pull back stick hammers and being accompanied by a tattling headbonking goomba might wear me down like the M&L series repetition has.
Or just give me a Shyguy partner at last and I'll take all the tedious chapter 1 goomba battles IS can give me.

I don't think it was physically on the paper. apparently the person who posted it said the guy who was handling booth mentioned it. He posted the paper to prove he was there.

Weren't there rumors of a Nintendo IP getting remastered this year?
It's not like previous Paper Mario games. It's not a RPG but a platformer. It's fun but it's not like TTYD which everyone loves.
I love Super Paper Mario, but that part just seemed a bit overboard hahaha.
I don't mind Nintendo also try another unique approach to Paper Mario. Sometimes their experiments are quite good. Just not Sticker Star, gross
Dear Miyamoto,
Making a Paper Mario like "Thousand Year Door" is not a bad thing. We're totally fine with that, thanks.

Refuse to be excited unless I see a partner system and RPG elements.
Actually as much as I love the series I sort of agree. I was trying to explain to my woman last night while playing the OG 64 game on the Wii U why it's paper (she thinks the concept is pretty stupid) and I was really struggling. I basically had to say it was neat from a technical standpoint 15 years ago but, really, it's not 15 years ago now, so what's the point?
Now, Super Paper Mario and Sticker Star used the paper esthetic, as a critical gameplay element for the former and conceptually for the world of the latter, but all y'all hate those games, so what's the point in continuing the paper thing?

I'd rather they move from Fire Emblem and keep making more Paper Marios. Although as far as Mario RPGs are concerned, Mario & Luigi is the true GOAT.
I don't. Well, SPM at least, because I haven't played Sticker Star yet. SPM is imo the best Paper Mario, simply because it isn't a chore to play (worst part is the lack of partners).

That's definitely not it. That's a list of gamecube titles which include Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door.

that says "Nintendo gamecube"
the only game they have listed under Wii U is Game and Wario
what are people freaking out over

It's a combination of ALL attacks requiring consumable items, battles only giving you coins, not experience, and thing stickers causing some really stupid trial and error stuff. In particular, the intended way to figure out the bosses' weaknesses appears to be to lose against them once so you can see their attacks so that you can hopefully figure out which thing stickers (which you may not have even found yet) you can use to counter them. That's not to even mention the environmental puzzles involving thing stickers. Also, there's of course the fact that trying to use a thing sticker, even in a wrong situation, uses it up, and reaquireing them can be a real pain.

Because people really enjoyed the first two Paper Mario games, how they played and the world and characters they contained. Just like any other desire for a sequel.
haha oh man this is embarrassing. All this for a Gamecube listing of Thousand Year Door? Is this true? So basically a list of games Intelligent Systems has made over the years lol
People's issues with Sticker Star have nothing to do with the sticker aesthetic and everything to do with the core gameplay design. Regardless, TTYD made great use of the paper element with Mario turning into a plane, rolling up, turning sideways, etc.

I'm not going to get excited because I don't want my heart to be broken again. Super Paper Mario was different but not bad, and afterwards I thought "Okay it will be back to the traditional style next time." NOPE.
