Paper Mario: Color Splash

I love SMM because of its accessibility. It takes a lot more work to make a hack, and I feel like designing in SMM is smoother and I can implement my ideas and test them instantly without having to transfer everything to the console and hope it doesn't crash as it boots up. (Keep in mind the only Mario platformer I've really edited is NSMBWii and I didn't do much with it)

Not to mention Nintendo has their own database of user submitted levels that can be clicked and played instantly.

Really not a fan of what they did with the 3DS version though.

Super Mario Maker can just go die already.

Also, paid online service for an online centric game, whoop whoop whoop.

Nintendo are following PS and Xbox with online.
 
Anyone else baffled by the decision to not introduce any new species in Prism Island? Even the main series introduces new species when there's a new setting, World introduced Yoshis, Sunshine introduced Piantas and Nokis, Galaxy introduced Lumas and a whole bunch of other space themed creatures, 3D World introduced Sprixies. And the RPGs have done the same in the past, with the Beanish from Superstar Saga, the variety of citizens in Rogueport, the Flipsiders, the Pi'illos, etc. Yet Color Splash comes along with its brand new location populated by... Toads. The restriction is so forced it hurts.

(And yes I realize the majority of Rogueport citizens were existing species, but there were still quite a few that hadn't been seen before)
 
Not really baffled. Mostly indifferent.
 
Well, the only reason I remembered Shelltops is because I often forget about them and bring them up how very little they add to the Mario World.

You remember Shelltops? They might as well be Toads.

That's pretty much AlphaDream's MO for creating a species. Take the concept of toads (basically mushroom people) then apply it to something else.

shells, pillows, beans, pretty much all based around the same concept.
 
I prefer most Toad "knockoff" species however because most of them look more appealing to me and they don't sound like babies with strep throat.
 
That's because they never care enough to give them voice actors.

Though their all basically the same thing. All useless people whom the bros gotta save.

That's not a rational argument and it still doesn't solve the problem that these creatures are interchangeable with Toads and are therefore pretty unnecessary.

It's the same problem with the Sprixie Kingdom. It might as well be the Mushroom Kingdom for how little it distinguishes between itself and the levels in 3D Land.
 
Sprixie Kingdom has more circuses.

I get why they're Toad knockoffs but I still prefer the NPCs who aren't annoying to me. I didn't like how 3D World's plot pretty much substituted the Sprixie princesses for Peach to make her playable rather than making a more original plot, but I have no issue with the Sprixies themselves. At least they're cute.
 
Nothing wrong with liking it more. Just acknowledge that there really isn't a huge difference between em.

Not that I mind them being similar. The similarity adds a feeling of consistency to the overall world they live in.

Also I want a Paper Bowser rendition of Bowser's odyssey suit.
