Actually, in terms of release, China is probably the worst. There a few generations behind...Nintendo is contemplating releasing the N64!

This game is going to RULE .. i hope it isnt a remake of Paper Mario tho

I wouldn't expect much connectivity between Mario & Luigi and this (assuming it's true) because Mario & Luigi is coming out a good 4 months prior to this. Oh well, I'm looking forward to it all the same.

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...

"Well, atleast the Australians don't get it as bad as here in NZ."

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.

actually paper mario on the gc would make some sence i guess
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.

deminisma · « **Reply #33 on:** June 01, 2003, 07:03:10 PM »

Australia gets it nowhere near as bad. I haven't lived in Oz since N64 days, but trust me it can't have gotten worse than it is and has always been in NZ.

- 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.

Eh? What am i making fun of? Please elaborate...

He is refering to your wise crack on the 9/11 attacks indirectly through your reference to Osama. though I am shocked since Osama struck australia with an attack that killed around 200 people shortly after our destruction of the Afghanie's Taliban regime. It was australia's equivelant of 9/11. And I'm also disgraces that my whiney country USA barely sent you aussies a paltry condolence gift, while were still riding on some momentum of the twin towers.

Mario · « **Reply #37 on:** June 01, 2003, 08:39:14 PM »

Oh i see, well im sorry for mentioning that then.

Anyway, Paper Mario on Gamecube is gonna be awesome, if its a remake, a new game, whatever, just bring it to Gamecube and ill buy ten copies!

Uncle Rich AiAi · « **Reply #38 on:** June 01, 2003, 10:25:53 PM »

I have a problem. What EXACTLY is Paper Mario? Would someone explain what this game is please?

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #39 on:** June 02, 2003, 12:48:48 AM »

OMG, you don't know what Paper Mario is?
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.

Uncle Rich AiAi · « **Reply #40 on:** June 02, 2003, 02:05:49 AM »

Ahhhhhhh...(actually I never bothered to look it up)

Thanks for that. Sounds interesting and weird. And that's what we love about Nintendo...

Ian Sane · « **Reply #41 on:** June 02, 2003, 07:10:06 AM »

I'm rather disappointed that they're sticking with the Paper Mario style of graphics. If we already have Mario & Luigi for the GBA why not make the Gamecube Mario RPG more like the style of the original Super Mario RPG? Does EVERYTHING Nintendo makes these days have to be overly cutesy and happy? Super Mario RPG combined the graphic styles of Super Mario World and Donkey Kong Country and it looked PERFECT. The first time I saw those graphics I thought to myself "now THAT is what the Mushroom Kingdom is supposed to look like".

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.

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.

It probably won't be released for along time Paper Mario is probably a tentive title !
