I am seriously looking forward to this one. But by its name, looks like it'll be sticking by its "paper" graphics. Alas, it'll be fun nonentheless. Good find.

Nice- Ice Climbers is coming out for the E-reader.
Great find, man, especially since you can barely read the release schedule with the font color they chose.

nintendo of australia should release a WE ARE SORRY pack with Chrono Trigger, Super Mario RPG etc etc on it, would be nice
Post by: Uncle Rich AiAi on June 01, 2003, 02:03:56 AM
Termin8Anakin, I've basically given up on Animal Crossing. I cannot see this game coming to our shore. I mean, what's taking so long? Are Nintendo Australia too busy eating donuts like cops?
Post by: Termin8Anakin on June 01, 2003, 04:59:42 AM
It's coming.
But right now, I maybe wrong, as I'm not really sure now.
Post by: oohhboy on June 01, 2003, 05:24:50 AM
Well, atleast the Australians don't get it as bad as here in NZ. Everything must come here last, right behind Iraq. I am not sure I have even seen a copy of Paper Mario. But luck for me this Gen I can import cheaper than getting it retail.

That's not even funny... you're making fun, with something that is severely tragic for some people.
maybe if you lived in the US, you would understand...
Post by: mouse_clicker on June 01, 2003, 09:03:15 AM
Really? This may make me sound stupid, but I always figured publishers kind of lumped Australia and New Zealand together, considering they're so close geographically and speak the same language. Odd.
Post by: rpglover on June 01, 2003, 10:41:15 AM
it probably will link up to the mario and luigi game on the gba in some way
i loved paper mario when it came out- the battle system was fun as were the dungeons
but hopefully they make it better- longer and harder quest i would say
of course this could be a mistake and the paper mario on gc could be the mario and luigi game on the gba
they are saying that mario and luigi is the successor to paper mario
we shall see- i hope its true

That's because Piracy is rampant in China, and Nintendo would rather not sell ANY, rather than release some and let everyone steal it all.

You Australians get screwed bad.

- No promotion
- Gamecube only available in specialty video game stores, nowhere else (although Xbox and PS2 are available everywhere that sells electronics or music).
The Gamecube here has been an abortion, with Monaco effectively dumping it and seemingly focussing on the Gameboy line. I'd be surprised if with the current distributor, the next Nentendo even makes it here.

You have the power of the internrt, and you haven't found out what Paper Mario is?
Oh well.
It's a 2D RPG, where Mario, and all the characters are essentially 'paper cut-outs', in that when Mario turns around, he flips like a piece of paper. And changing rooms, levels, etc, makes the screen 'turn a page'. The environments, though, are modelled in 3D. Its like a mix of cel-shading and 3D.
Post by: Uncle Rich AiAi on June 02, 2003, 02:05:49 AM
Thanks for that. Sounds interesting and weird. And that's what we love about Nintendo...
Post by: Ian Sane on June 02, 2003, 07:10:06 AM
Nintendo seems to do this a lot where they change a game's style for no good reason (often to make it cuter) and then sticks with that style forever. Yoshi is a particularly good example and Star Fox and F-Zero have also changed a fair bit from their original design on the SNES. It's very annoying when you preferred the original style. Pretty much all of Nintendo's franchises have gotten way more cutesy and kid-friendly than they were on the SNES and they were already kid-friendly back then.

I'm rather disappointed that they're sticking with the Paper Mario style of graphics.
Well we havent even seen a single screenshot or had any hint of what the graphics will be like, so it wouldnt hurt to just wait and see what the graphics look like before being dissapointed.
