Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam

I've read in that interview about Sticker Star IS was pretty enthusiastic about Miyamoto's "interference" in Sticker Star: like, they weren't tied up my Miyamoto and forced at gunpoint, they were pretty happy to make those changes
 
Really? Because remember that other RPG thread by that Mario & Luigi person (SuperstarSagaGuy) and SuperstarSagaGuy implied that the team doesn't like what Shigeru Miyamoto did.

Would it be reasonable to still consider the first three Paper Marios to be part of the rest of the series like normal, while Sticker Star onward is its own little timeline/AU/whatever you wanna call it? :P
You can make your own canon, but there is no official canon in the Mario series. I actually think it's more like the other way around, where the Paper Mario gaems are not part of the series "like normal" and Sticker Star is just a storybook that somebody drew in. The rest don't exist.

I dunno, they just seem happy about the entire thing
 
If Sticker Star is really a "new continuity", I hope the series dies soon since it has essentially become New Super Paper Mario Bros.
 
OK, I'm starting to agree with Solar Blaze. Paper Mario is dead.

R.I.P. Paper Mario series 2000-2007

I keep hoping we would get a new RPG series, but alas nothing.
 
Puzzles and Dragons?

Like what? Seeing characters that would never return suddenly shoehorned into a crossover where they'd all be shells of themselves from previous games?
I'm not saying that they have to shoehorn in every character, but I'd sure as hell like it if they showed some indication that the past three Paper Mario games mattered in some way, shape, or form, which they've done absolutely none of so far, besides acknowledging the fact that Paper Bowser's able to speak.

I just want to remind everyone that AlphaDream is in charge of development for this game, so I wouldn't expect so much from the Paper Mario aspect of it, other than somewhat of a mini-crossover, which is probably why there seems to be a lot of generic enemies.

Being made by someone else is not an excuse for the minimal Paper Mario content.

Unless there are copyright issues and such.

And we still have yet to see more than like 2% of this game, so who really knows what else there is about this game. It's basically a Mario & Luigi game that has Paper Mario elements thrown in. It's not like it's a sequel to Sticker Star really.

Good point.

True, but the only Paper Mario elements so far are the paper characters themselves.
