Title: Super Paper Mario is teh good.
Post by: Pugnate on Tuesday, April 10, 2007, 12:37:18 AM: 8.8 from gamespot (http://www.gamespot.com/wii/rpg/superpapermario/review.html?om_act=convert&om_clk=gssummary&tag=summary;review)

Still not a proper Wii release. It was torn from the gamecube to be made a Wii exclusive which sucks. I still have Paper Mario sitting shrink wrapped for the gamecube.

How on earth could you hate that game... well maybe I could see, but some specifics would be nice.

I might pick up a Wii pretty soon just for Zelda and this game.

Ehh . . . It had to happen eventually, cutting off the GC I mean. Clearly, Nintendo doesn't care about more powerful graphics too much. They went a different direction with the Wii. Disappointing, because you know the GC would handle it fine. But not unexpected.

Same reason I hated Partners in Time I guess. If I play a Mario game I really want it to be a platformer. The cutesie RPGish Mario game just doesn't jive with me. I recognize that they're good games, but I just can't stand them.

I guess I'm just too used to playing serious RPG's with the emo "woe is me" main character.

Post by: Cobra951 on Tuesday, April 17, 2007, 10:08:28 AM: The "crazy game mechanics" is exactly my sticking point with the Wii. What has made the console's name is what's keeping me away. What are those crazy mechanics? Do you need to be in top physical form to enjoy the game over extended periods? Do you need a shower afterwards?
