Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is getting the remaster it deserves
14.09.2023 - 15:33 / thesixthaxis.com / Paper Mario
Nintendo has announced that Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is being remastered for Nintendo Switch, the classic GameCube RPG coming out in 2024.
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is generally held up as the best game in the Paper Mario series. Originally released for the GameCube in 2004, it retained the same battle system as the original game, while later games incorporated more platformer elements or had totally different battle systems. From a narrative perspective, later games started to use Toads more and more heavily to fill out the world with NPCs, while earlier games were more creative in that regard.
The game remaster will bring with it graphical enhancements, likely following in similar footsteps to the Pikmin 1+2 remaster from earlier this year by shifting the game to wide screen, increasing the game resolution, and perhaps some minor effects work. We’re will to be surprised by greater enhancements than that, but whatever they do, it’s great to see Nintendo giving the GameCube library some love in the Switch’s twilight years. The original Paper Mario is playable via Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack.
The most recent game in the Paper Mario series was Paper Mario: The Origami King, which launched back in 2020. In our review, I said, “Paper Mario: The Origami King is a solid, but unremarkable sequel. It’s like a table of snack food at a party, where you’ll happily nibble away just because you’re stood next to it or feeling a bit peckish, but it’s not exactly going to fill you up. The new battle puzzles and the boss fights in particular stand out, but the world and endless Toads fail to spark the same delight. This feels like a missed opportunity.”

This JRPG looks like it might actually be worth worth the 8-year wait, and the devs are saying exactly what I want to hear
I'm a big fan of the classical fantasy world of Granblue Fantasy. There's just one problem: I don't actually like any of the games. I adore the art of the games, and I enjoyed the narrative crash course of the series' promotional anime, but the titular game is an infamously grindy gacha and the fighting game spinoffs honestly scare me even more. So I'm immensely pleased to hear that Granblue Fantasy: Relink, an action JRPG that's finally approaching launch some eight years after its reveal, is a deliberately different take on the series.

No one can make a game nigh-impossible to play for years and years and then get you excited to buy a remake quite like Nintendo, and let me tell you, they’ve done it again. Beloved Gamecube game Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door has a reputation for being one of finest Mario RPGs out there, second only to Super Mario RPG, and considered by most to be the best in the Paper Mario series. And now, as announced at Thursday’s Nintendo Direct, it’s the latest game in Nintendo’s extensive back catalog of bangers to get an HD touch-up and upcoming Switch release.
