I couldn't believe my eyes

3 years ago by PixelPioneer to c/nintendo

When I first saw the book I couldn’t believe what I was seeing, it wasn’t until the chime started that I realized what I was looking at. Anyone else excited?! I’m looking forward to this one. It’s been too long…

On the one hand, I'm as tired of ports and remakes as anyone else. On the other, TTYD is a perfect RPG and the exact opposite of what they've done to Paper Mario for two generations, so it not only gets a pass but a big fat golden power star.

TTYD is a masterpiece.

The story, I thought, was more compelling than PM. The movement abilities were wonderful. And the graphics upgrade of the GCN is surprisingly a very welcome addition.

Just like PM, it's a bit of a slow start plot wise.

TTYD is fantastic and I think its better then the first one.

For the most part, I see the two original Paper Marios as equals. They both have good and bad chapters, so it's hard to say which one I prefer on that front. The aspect that pushes TTYD slightly ahead for me is that your stats aren't capped at 50/50/30 anymore. You can play the game with 10HP and a goombillion badge points if you want and the game won't stop you!

This game embodies everything awesome that Nintendo has been trying to stamp out of Mario games in the past decade, so I never thought they’d remaster it!

Maybe I'm bias cuz I use emulation and have a decent retro game collection but does this feel like a cash grab to anyone else?

There couldn't have been that much about the game that needed to be updated but rather than release it online as a port for 20 dollars they're make it a remaster and sell for full price.

Wouldn't not tying it to Switch online be better for preserving it and increasing its longevity? And the game isn't that short. Rather than renewing the online subscription when I don't have time to make good use of it I prefer this.

I just finished playing it a few days ago on dolphin but I'd gladly replay it again if it came out today! I had tears in my eyes I was so excited!

how did you get it to run? i think i tried to play it around the start of this year, but it kept crashing at the start. did dolphin fix the issue or did you have to to something special to get it to run?

I think it has to do with the rom? I've been using the same rom for nearly 5 years so I can't say. I just load it and it works
