The most beloved Mario RPG since the original is getting a 20th anniversary touch-up.

Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door HD was the "one more thing" of today's Nintendo Direct, announcing a 2024 release. The original title released in 2004 on the GameCube, and the remaster trailer did not make any announcements of additional content.

I hate everything

At last, all the Thousand Year Door fans can finally shut the **** up.

I kid, of course. Nintendo should have dipped into their GameCube library a LONG time ago.

Don't worry, I'm sure they'll find some change in the remake that they'll argue butchers the entire experience now.  Then they'll be mad that more people are playing the inferior Switch version instead of the superior Gamecube version.

It's been a long sad saga. Especially since Sticker Star is superior.

And then after telling everyone not to buy it, someone points it that it is selling less than Origami King so then they freak out because that means Nintendo won't make a new Mario RPG since people clearly aren't buying the "best" RPG one so now they need to get people to buy it while still hating it. Will laugh-o if that happens.

Trusty sources report that it will have an uncensored shower scene.

It's okay to leave some doors closed.

Remaster the superior version confirmed.

Although what would really put it over the top is if you could customize some things. Like instead of being Mario, you had an option to swap in Wario or Waluigi. And instead of Peach, you could swap in Daisy or Pauline. Make the game even wilder!!

Looks like it's starting to happen. With the news that the Switch version is only 30FPS compared to the Gamecube which is 60FPS, I see some on the internet already refusing to buy this now.  Which is really funny since the original at 60FPS is still a really slow paced game with characters that already move choppy because of the paper theme.

I can understand fast paced games like racers, platformers and action games feeling like a downgrade going from 60FPS to 30FPS, but for this game it's just laughable to see people getting that offended.  After all these years of cursing Nintendo to make a new Paper Mario like TTYD, they're going to give up their best chance over a very petty reason.

I would actually argue that Thousand Year Door desperately needs the entire chapter where you're chasing General Bob-omb cut from the remaster (ala the Triforce hunt in Wind Waker HD), so the "censored" version would actually be the superior one.

You guys do know I’m aggressively perusing this thread, right? That’s why you keep talking about me.

I have only played the newer Paper Mario games so this would be my first time playing the game. I do find it odd that they did not start with remastering the first game, but people really seem to like this one so I will give it a go.

Probably because the original Paper Mario has been available on the Wii and Wii U Virtual Console, and the Nintendo Switch Online service.  Meanwhile TTYD has been stuck on only the Gamecube for almost 20 years now.  So to a much larger audience this is basically a new game to them, compared to the original which was available on both the Wii and Switch.
