Hidy-ho, mammals. ...er.

So, who's got Paper Mario? I just bought it yesterday evening. I haven't played it yet, just read a bunch of reviews and now I really want to. Not very smart, I don't suppose.

Does anyone else have this game yet? What would you give it in a scale out of 10? Has anyone even *gasp* beaten it yet?

Well aren't you lucky, it has still yet to be released where I live (UK) and it won't get released in Europe until November 12th.

I've got it. I love it.
And now I shall avoid this thread 'til I've beaten it, lest I read something I don't want to have.

Go Moon!

I got it. I haven't beaten it, but if it stays true to end, this will be my favorite game ever. And now I leave this thread for a long time. No spoilers, please.

I got and beat it at least two years ago.

Let me away from this boulder!

Mammals? I resent that. I am clearly a . . . reptile? But my skin's too smooth. Maybe I'm an amphibian. With feathery wings?

Anyway, I have PM2, and I must say, it is the first game to make me smile whilst playing it more times per minute than any other game EVER. I'd give it an 11 out of 10.

Popple, I'm talking about the new Paper Mario game for GameCube, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

By the way I started it yesterday. I had avowed I wouldn't pour too much time into it at once and beat it too fast, but I played for 3 hours straight nonetheless.

O sweet seductive papery qualities!

I have my original Nintendo 64 Paper Mario...

I plan to get Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door maybe sometime around Christmas, I hope...

Oh! The gloriness of this game, I envy anyone who already owns his or her copy...

I am a pure Super Mario lover!!

...and in no point in the future will he ever be abandonded by me!

I will even drawn the best Super Mario comics ever to exist!!

Paper Mario for the Nintendo 64 was, hands-off, my favorite game--

I say "was" because from what I've seen of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, it is going to take its place.

Why don't we all discuss how far we've gotten, but not say anything that could be a spoiler?

I don't really like how in choosing to level up your Heart Points the game assumes you "lack confidence." You can only use so many Flower Points or Badges early on in the game, I would think it would be a good idea to upgrade Heart Points--I mean, going by the game's standards, you should never need to upgrade your Heart Points. Doesn't seem very plausible.

I hope that doesn't count as a spoiler.

Under that boulder, maybe.

I DON'T have the game, because I am getting it for Christmas.

I'm not made of money, I spent the last of my funds on the Invader ZIM DVDs (Which are quite good).

I have

Super Mario RPG
Paper Mario
Paper Mario 2 ...

I was saying that Paper Mario 2 wasn't as good as the original, but the more I play 2 the more I like it. I am in the tree now, but don't get much time to play since I have to share the Cube with my wife who plays The Sims B.O. all the time.

Paper Mario 2 > Super Mario RPG > Mario & Luigi > Paper Mario 1 > 97% of games

I agree, but would have put Mario & Luigi above all the games you listed. (I haven't finish PM2 yet.) M&L:SS is by far the best single player handheld game ever. I think the GBA verion SMB3 w/ e-Reader cards is the best platformer ever.

My wife doesn't like Paper Mario 2. (She has never played it.) She says it is pornographic. (Refering to the party member w/ breast.) How can she say that when she is having people kiss and sleep together in The Sims? She obviously hasn't seen any of the new video games that show girls in bikinis or topless.
