I do have to say, the Rescue V feel like they might have been intended as intentional callbacks to the Axem Rangers and the Koopa Bros., which is nice, and it's the closest Paper Mario has come to trying to be Paper Mario since 2007... but then they summon giant waves of Toads and it just feels like they're mocking us at this point.

If you want to hold out some hope, there's the fact that Color Splash started development pretty much immediately after Sticker Star shipped, so they didn't give themselves any time to listen to feedback (which was pretty stupid), so now if they make another one, this time they'll be ready to react to our feedback from 2012. But I'm pretty sure this is just what Paper Mario is going to be from now on.

The main difference is that the Koopa Bros. were an obvious TMNT spoof, the Axem Rangers were a general/mostly 90s Super Sentai spoof, while Rescue V up there are a dead-on parody of the original Himitsu Sentai Goranger, right down to the grainy film stock and 70s music. This I like.

(also, it looks like TMK needs to update how YT embeds work since it seems to be loading the Flash version of the videos for me)

A Conversation With Paper Mario: Color Splash Producer Risa Tabata


Quote from: Tabata
There's a developer by the name of Taro Kudo who worked on the previous game as well, and he's been basically the overall director for the story and the dialogue in this game. He's very very good at coming up with gags and jokes, but he's also very good at crafting a good story. And I think if you play the game to the end, you may actually cry at the end. We did some test plays and there really were people who cried at the end.

Checkmate, Color Splash haters

This game is freaking beautiful.

It still doesn't look like the game I want Paper Mario to be, but [darn] is it pretty.

I think the worlds and environments are cool, but I'll still not convinced on the battles.  The battles may be better than Sticker Star, but still not up to N64/GCN era.

Paper Koopa Kids! That's pretty cool.

Still not impressed with Mario's overalls. er.. still not impressed with the game overall.
Kinopio is the ultimate video game character! Who else can drive a kart, host parties, play tennis, give good advice and items, and is almost always happy??

It's weird how I wanted Koopalings to come back so bad 10-15 years ago and now they're just Nintendo's symbol for "yeah we still don't feel like coming up with any real bosses."

I kinda hoped they'd do something crazy with them like the big mech suits in Yoshi's Safari. This looks a little closer to that than anything the NSMBs did, at any rate.

Given that 3D World gave us a whole swarth of new bosses, there's a good chance the next "main" Mario game will do the same, right?
