Thousand Year Door is really good, very similar quality to the orginal. I can't comment on Super or Sticker Star, but they don't look as good IMO.

Yes Paper Mario is a JRPG, it's Japanese and a Role Playing Game (You do enter turn based battles and have stats you know).

Have you played Dragon Quest VIII or IX?

I didn't care for Super Paper Mario.  Haven't played Sticker Star.  I was really hyped up for it until they said no partners and then it killed it for me.

I'm not sure.  I played one of them for the NDS, but i didnt really play it that much either.  Ive thought about trying it again because i do like the art style.

If you like Ni No Kuni, you might like Dragon Quest VIII or IX, but they do take about an hour or so to get into. I didn't like the first 20 minutes or so of DQVIII, but after 40 minutes, it was really addictive. My advice is to start with VIII or IX though, and see if it's for you.

I feel the same about Sticker Star, they took out a lot of RPG components, and really simplified gameplay, so it kinda threw me off. Have you played Super Mario RPG? It's a bit old, but it has the same comedy as Paper Mario, and at the same time plays much more like a traditional RPG. I played SMRPG first, and was a bit disappointed in Paper Mario because it's less RPG, and more Puzzle game, but both are still very similar.

If you don't like SMRPG, you'll never like Final Fantasy, but it's a good game to try to really give Square Enix a chance.

Anyway, you're not biased, you just don't like shovelware, crap, branded crap, or traditional RPG's.

I have always thought about getting the Super Mario RPG games but never did for some reason.  Are you talking about Mario & Luigi saga?  Or are you talking about the old Mario rpg for snes....I believe it was for SNES anyways.


I'll probably pick up the new Mario & Luigi game for the 3DS when it comes out though.
