Top 10 Mario RPG's

Re: Top 9 Mario RPG's

Maybe I've been a bit hard on Super Paper Mario.

Sure, the story wasn't great, but it tried.

As much as I hated some tedious moments, it still was fun being able to play as the different characters and use the different Pixls.

Still, I feel this should have been its own game. It doesn't feel very Mario-ish besides the main characters appearing. Maybe (and this is just an idea I'm throwing out) the Pixls could have been the main characters. Maybe make it a turn-based RPG (although I'm not quite sure how the flipping could be preserved).
 
Re: Top 9 Mario RPG's

^In TTYD, something similar to flipping happened in battle sometimes with a Shy Guy from the audience. Not really that much, but maybe flipping in battle could reveal another attack point on a boss or something. I dunno, but if SPM was turn-based I'd just scrap the flip mechanic or only use it outside battle.

okay since spm and ttyd have a reasonable spot on your list and sticker star is almost at the bottom i will forgive you
but still

why
 
Re: Top 9 Mario RPG's

Because Sticker Star isn't a bad game. It's very unique and fun. (Not in terms of story though. But the original N64 version didn't have the most creative story either). But I agree that it shouldn't have been labeled as "Paper Mario: Sticker Star".
 
Re: Top 9 Mario RPG's

Why not? It's the most paper of the bunch so the title is still accurate.

Right, it was called Mario Story.

Yet another strike against Sticker Star.

Not really considering it still plays out like a book.

Sticker Star does have a story
 
Re: Top 9 Mario RPG's

It's not much, but it does technically have one.
