Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door Still Undervalued By Nintendo
Original: Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door Still Isn't Respected By Nintendo 22 Years Later
Commentary argues that Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, first released in 2004, has never received the respect it deserves from Nintendo, even after a 2024 Switch remake. Fans have long praised its story, humor and battle system, and many feel Nintendo has drifted the Paper Mario series away from the RPG style that made the GameCube original a cult classic, prompting ongoing debate about the franchise's direction.
Why now: Nintendo has steered recent Paper Mario entries away from the RPG formula fans loved, keeping debate about the series' direction alive.
