Game Profile

Mario's Super Sticker Collection

On the day of the annual Sticker Fest, Bowser decides to pull a prank and scatters six Royal Stickers across the land. To retrieve these mysterious, magical stickers, which are now stuck onto Bowser and his underlings, Mario sets off on an adventure with Kersti, a sticker fairy, visiting prairies, deserts, forests, snowy mountains and volcanoes around the world.

Features:

Stickers are blended into every aspect of game play. They become your arsenal of items and attacks in traditional Paper Mario action-battles and can even unfold the environment to reveal new areas and ways to progress through the game.

Collect stickers by peeling them off their environment, buying them in shops, or even making your own, and store them in your notebook for later use.

"Paper"-ize the world by flattening it out and then use your stickers to find secret areas and hidden items just about anywhere in the game.

The papercraft setting of the game is really emphasized in 3D, giving you the feeling of peering into and exploring a world comprised of shoebox dioramas.

A cast of colorful characters will keep players laughing at every turn.

TTYD was my favourite, but one in 3D will be... I wanna say "epic", but that word was kinda overused this E3, so I'll say... good. :P

This Paper Mario looks like the one from N64 and Gamecube. If its is, I'm going to buy it. I did enjoy the Wii Version, but not as much as the others. Edit: I'm definitely buying this when I get a 3DS.

The thousand year door has got to be one of my all-time favourite games. Wasn't so keen on the Wii version but it was still good. Hopefully this will lean more towards TTYD in terms of locations and characters (and art style come to think of it).

This looks cool. I did like the feature in Super Paper Mario where you swich in between 2d & 3d. They'll probably do it automatically now.
This is still a must get for me!

I see they have reintroduced the classic battle system. And presumably, one of Mario's partners is a Chain Chomp :O :D

Me too. I've got boarding school, but I still don't care. Nothing can stop me from getting this game. Nothing. It looks SO awesome.

This Game Will Be Awesome And I Can Tell Already Is Going To Be Better Than Super Paper Mario (Wii) With The Stage Battles Back And Its Gone Back To The 3D Aspects Instead Of 2D And Flipping Between Dimensions Unlike Super Paper Mario. However I Feel That It Won't Be Better Than Paper Mario TTYD As That Game Is Just Brilliant!

@20.Jango.Forest - I couldn't have said it better myself! ;)
I'm really looking forward to this game! But even more after seeing these pics!
Looks like your allies in this game is Mario's former enemies... Interesting! :)
Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door is a sublime game, and I'm so happy that finally there will be a direct sequel, at least in terms of gameplay! ;)

This game looks so good, and it is soo creative. I mean stickers, who would have though of that? I have a feeling this is going to be like the best game in the world. I can't wait for Holiday 2011 for Mario Kart and Super Mario. I am so hyped right now.

Had this on preorder but canceled it, the Wii version super paper Mario was the best game of the series and the switching for 2d to 3d was a fantastic concept. WTF is wrong with the devs at ninty? you have a console that goes from 2d to 3d FOR REAL and you drop that design for the long drawn out, boring style of the gamecube and 64 releases. FOR SHAME!!!! FOR SHAME!!!!
edited to add another FOR SHAME!!!!

Does anyone know if there is a release date for this?

Also I want to get this but I'm dissapointed by the fact that there is no flower points or even an audience. Well maybe there is something like flower points in this game. But no audience is completely true. But this still is a must buy. But one of my later must buys. Animal Crossing, Mario Kart, Luigi's Mansion 2, Paper Mario. Depending on which comes out first, it's a shame that Luigi's Mansion 2 is coming out 2012 because I heard the play control is really addicting. I'm curious how it is possible to control luigi and the vacuum and the same time.

paper mario looks better with the graphics even better than paper mario and the thousand year door and i think one of the partners will be toad because i saw it in a video of paper mario 3ds also it looks a bit harder from the original thosand year door with the gusty wind

Can't wait. Paper Mario is my favorite series of all time. The dialogue is the most creative and witty I've ever seen in a video game. TTYD is the best in the series so far.

Love Paper Mario 1000 year door! Not happy though that I can't play this on my new DSI XL. Can't they make a 2d version for those of us that can't afford the new 3DS. My dads iPad has cool games like Infinity Blade that only cost $3.00. Cmon Nintendo...

I NEED THIS GAME!!!!! I want another lakitu partner. In the original paper mario, Lakilester was my favorite partner. I just think that the lakitu should have a different out of battle ability.

I loved Paper Mario for the N64, which is the title I enjoyed the most out of the three PMs in the series and any other Mario RPG, but seeing how this is majorly different than the first two, I hope it turns out to be worthy in the end. Also, I freaking love Paper Mario.

Shockerz said:

I think this is a later 2012 come out because we've gotten no news about it. It better come in 2012, and I hope that there is a audience at the bottom because in TTYD I've always tried to make my audience excited. In this game they should have an audience mood meter so you can interact with them, and you can use items on them to either make them happy or angry. Making them angry should be a disavantage to mario but also a disavatage to the enemy, they should have a star power meter too. I also hope that you don't have to buy hammers and jumps beacause that would certainly be annoying.

Edit: Actualy, I think buying hammers and jumps are a good idea. As long as they are cheap you should be able to use more than one jump on an enemy for a multi-jump, and for the hamer you can use more than one of those too. I hope they bring back badges but I'm not mostly concerned about it yet I am at the same time. If they don't add badges I expect there to be alot of items.

Super Paper Mario was the game that made me love my Wii, and helped me become a gamer in the first place.

i've done a lot of research on this game, and i found out that u only get three partners: a green toad, a chain-chomp, and if u played paper mario 64, u should know about your third partener: the ice kings floating crown that he wore when u fought him, except it sparkles, it has eyes, and its the same color of the crystal crystal star in ttyd. and im not sure, but i think the chain-chomps ability will be bark so it can scare enemies and other things. and for the recored, paper mario the thousand year door IS the best of them all. and i don't know about u, but i completly HATED that u had to switch from 2d to 3d every 5 minuets. and if u stayed in 3d for too long, u get hurt! and it does that until u beat the game. then u can stay in 3d however long u want

sorry, from 2d to 3d every 5 minuets in super paper mario wii. forgot to say which game i was talking about.

and i think the floating crown is phychic and it can move stuff around with its mind.

and, i have also found out the release date!!!!!!!!!! its due for release on march 25th.

2012

PaperDude16

PaperDude16 said:

sorry, but idk what that boss looks like. but i sure hope that what u said would happen!

just like in TTYD with Lord Grodus and bowser when bowser squashes him when he falls through the ceiling.(or floor, whatever u call it.)

This is going to be an amazing game! I am looking forward to it a lot, the ''stickers'' feature looks like it is going to be very interesting and fun, as you can use them in the battles, and when you are walking around.

@zeldadude this isn't a re-make (i don't think it is anyway) so, i think it will be a part 4. now, i don't really know what you mean by "i want an origanal" if you mean you want it to be a remake of an origanal then i don't think it is. :(

It'll be coming out in November 11th, so I plan to grab a copy as soon as it hits stores.

Judging by what I've seen, you only have one real partner, the rest of them function as one-time use partners used for solving a puzzle or whatnot. There's a world map in place of traveling by foot to each location, loads of stickers, etc. Doesn't appear to be any badges, as stickers seem to replace them. Leveling is done differently this time around, though I don't know the specifics other than that you don't get exp from battles anymore.
