And Super Paper Mario is in no way or form a RPG   O.o

Take it from someone who's completed the game, yes it is.  In fact, it's more of an RPG than a platformer, the emphasis is squarely on grinding, subsystems and exploration (just like Paper Mario 1-2), only now everything's realtime.

But the gameplay is nowhere near a RPG.

Uh, have you played it?  All it did is take Paper Mario and make it realtime without a separate battle screen, the structure, subsystems and progression are definitely RPG based.  Basically, if Paper Mario's not an RPG, then neither is any action RPG on the list (Fable II/III, Infinite Undiscovery, Folklore, etc).  

"All it did is take Paper Mario and make it realtime"

Thus making it a whole other game and genre. The gameplay is much closer to the platformer genre.

And of course I played it. It's my biggest disappointment this gen.
