I mean I liked SS personally, but I see it's major problems. Basically the devs wanted to make a full fledged sequel to TTYD with partners, a story, etc. But then Miyamoto axed the whole story as he has swayed towards a Club Nintendo survey saying that the fans didn't care for a story. 

As a result of the game's no story, it made the whole game hard to care for since there was nothing to get behind. Also the games has no real partners, another big staple of the series. Lastly while the gameplay went back to turnbase, there was a huge flaw in the combat. There is no leveling system, so battles become completely pointless, as all you need is stickers. 

In the end, I hope they go back to their roots for a Wii U version. And for the love of God, leave it alone Miyamoto. Let Intelligent Systems do their thing. 

This!

I personally think it wasn't as bad as other people say it is, but it really wasn't a Paper Mario.

It was more of an exploring game. I actually liked it a lot, but I still prefer every other Paper Mario.

SS is a good game if you don't think of it as a Paper Mario game, and more of like a LoZ game. I enjoyed it too, but not not as much as some of the others.

Paper Mario was my favorite Mario Series.

Miyamoto approached Sticker Star like he would a regular 2D Mario game: No story, no EXP/leveling system.

He shouldn't be involved with the series anymore.

Having never been a big fan of Paper Mario (don't kill me. Only one i've played is Super) it seems like this was another case of Nintendo being experimental for the sake of, where it clearly backfired, although at the same time the innovations made could contribute well to a "proper" Paper Mario in the future. Few cases where change is universally bad and there's nothing to salvage, after all.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

As far as I'm aware of the details Miyamoto didn't ax the story, he didn't like that the game was too similar to the original TTYD and felt it would not feel like a new game. The story was axed because of the poll, though, but that was a development decision as a whole not just Miyamoto.

You're really missing out if you haven't played the original or TTYD, Super is essentially Super Mario Bros 3.5 with Paper Mario esque characters.
