Everybody moves at once at the latest Party

If it's E3, it means there must be Mario news.

Paper Mario: Color Splash has received a release date of October 7 for North America, and will be shown in the Treehouse Live presentation tomorrow at E3. The Wii U game was first announced back in March.

Coinciding with the new line of Mario amiibo, a new Mario Party has been announced for 3DS. Releasing on November 4, Mario Party: Star Rush will allow all players to move at once, making it more portable friendly.

Good to hear. I'll take it.

Ugh. Boooooo. Really? More Mario Amiibo? *sigh*

Hmm. The all moving at once is interesting. It's got my attention. Here's hoping it isn't an Amiibo party.

Nah. At least now people will be able to find Rosalinas, and we are getting SOME new ones (Daisy, Boo).

(Although really, I just want a standalone Wolf Link.)

Awesome stuff. Really interested in the Treehouse footage of Color Splash. Here's hoping it doesn't copy the formula of Sticker Star exactly (i.e. maybe battles will give experience or be worthwhile in a better way).


A new Mario Party isn't the most fascinating announcement, but I really enjoyed Island Tour. I could take or leave 10, though.

Yes, I'm interested to see more details on Paper Mario after the breakdown Evan_B and I did on the first trailer.

Oh, and the obtuse design of the stickers-- hopefully that's gone. It was a pain not knowing what sticker to use when, then misusing a sticker during the wrong boss fight and messing yourself over. I didn't like that. Hope Color Splash has none of that. I had to use a guide to enjoy Sticker Star. Might have just been my abilities, though.
