I've played TTYD and Super Paper Mario...loved them both. Really liked the ability in SPM to shift perspectives and I'm hoping they don't drop that mechanic. @ enditall727...at least give the game a chance. You're rejecting it on principle and not on experience.


So much this.

I place SPM and PM:SS way below the other two, but people should absolutely still try them before forming an opinion on them. They're both pretty good games, I just liked the other Paper Mario games a hell of a lot more. I agree that I hate it when a game franchise gets changes where none are needed, but if it's a franchise I love, I try it anyway. Sometimes I end up loving it, and wanting future titles to include ideas from it, even if I want some old ideas back. Super Paper Mario's shifting perspectives is a great example. It would have fit in well with other Paper Marios, I think. I hope they not only bring it back, but expand upon it. I personally saw more potential in the concept than I felt was realized in Super Paper Mario. So many times I see a hated game in a franchise having something I loved, and I want that thing to come back, but worry it never will because the game as a whole wasn't popular, and much of the time, all the negative buzz about the game is from people who haven't played it and are just jumping on the hate bandwagon.
