I know this is very unlikely, but since there appears to be at least some slightly new additions to the game, like that purple toad in Glitzville, I'd love to see them re-add the rest of the OG Paper Mario partners cameo appearances. Data from the original game revealed that they all had unused sprites and all of them except Parakarry and Bow were removed. This would be a great opportunity to add them back in, as well as add more nods to the OG game! We could find Goombario on vacation with his family in Glitzville, or Kooper with a team of Kolorado's archaeologists looking for treasure on Keelhaul Key!
I feel like they should relocate bow to twilight town for that too If kooper and Kolorado show up they should probably be either part of mario's expedition group or be part of the group that is deep within the cave I also feel like it would make sense for Lakilester to go to glitz rather than goombario since there's alot of lakitu around already having goombario in poshley heights or the train with his family would make alot of sense I think I could picture sushi at the harbor of rogueport Parakarry could be on a trip to petalburg delivering mail and watt's so interchangeable I feel like you could put him anywhere but who knows maybe that whole partner ordeal ties into the PM64 pipe afterall some pm64 tie ins are possible if they aren't squeezing both remakes into one game which would be insane to do
One thing I wanna see is Prince Mush added in as an extra boss in Glitzvile! He was the first champion so I think it'd be neat to fight a super tough toad like The Master in 64!
i agree with you id love to see luigi get his own adventure just like the mario and luigi remakes but id also be ok with a boss gauntlet like in bug fables id love to be able to re fight the game’s bosses or maybe even their x forms which are harder versions of them like in bug fables and mario and luigi as id be really excited to re fight the games bosses or harder versions of them

Two, Working on this remake will mostly likely remind them what was good about TTYD and they’ll take more inspiration from it for the next entry
People will probably still not like a new game in that style as much as TTYD. It's gotten such a cult loyalist fanbase that I fear even if it did get sequels like it people would still say "It's no TTYD" regardless

Or at the very least, a remake of Paper Mario 64, which I think would be pretty cool. It's aged fairly well, but it wouldn't be a bad thing for it to get one, at least in my opinion.
The Purple Glitzville Toad gives me hope that you can now actually face Prince Mush in battle at some point. The original mentioned him planning a comeback in the Glitzpit in one of the emails, but you could never fight him
This is my favorite game of all time. All those days I spent "sick" and home from school, this was the reason right here. This is so amazing. My favorite part for some reason is the fact of all the sprites having backsides now. Plus the emotions. I can't wait to hear "We're Counting On You, Mario!!"
The soundtrack getting remade entirely is one of the things I'm hyped about the most. The original one as well as Super Paper Mario have some of the quirkest and weirdest (in a good way!) OSTs out there, oftentimes you don't even know if what you're hearing is a synthesizer or a rubber duck. The composers deserve a lot more credit! =D
Surprised you didn't point out that the coin counter implies you can have 4 digits now instead of 3 (so the max number of coins might no longer be 999). But this seemingly having a larger window from announcement to release than mario RPG tells me this isn't as far into development so a lot of things are subject to change. I wouldn't be surprised if Goldbob and his family aren't completed yet hence why they aren't shown in Glitzville and i'd be surprised if they moved their spot.
if you look real closely, you can spot that crump also has a backsprite as he turns in Magnus von Grapple and the traveling toad sisters also changed locations slightly. Lastly in Twilight town we see 3 pigs including the transforming one at the beginning while in the original there was at least 1 villager who did not yet had turned into a pig so only 2 pigs should have been there at that time
This was the first game I got for the Gamecube for my 10th birthday,nfrom landing on Rogueport to the Shadow Queen every step was memorable. This will be the best game ever made and you can't change my mind.
Wow i know i loved this game but i didn't think i'd be getting kinda teary eyed watching this. There are so many strong memories from my childhood that come up whenever i play this, i cannot wait to play it again on the switch!
One preference I have is that I wish they kept the original battle music. Besides that, this game seriously has the potential to be Game of The Year! That's how good this 2004 game is. It would be one for the history books.
I hoping that in the remake, there is more post-game stuff or change a bit, like fighting the super saiyan toad from the first paper mario game, as an opponent in glitzville as you rise to the top again
About the piantas in rogueport I believe they likely changed the sequence because the game is now widescreen. In the original game, the piantas don't act until the camera moves to the right to show Toadsworth, as the exact place that happens is slightly off-screen. In the remake, as it is widescreen, you can see a bit more to both sides so now it can happen without the camera needing to pan to the right
Getting a remake of my favorite game of all time is one of those things that I've always tried to hope for but not expect. I almost can't believe it's actually happening, and I'm amazed at the effort they clearly put into it. This video is fantastic, I love seeing so many details and changes pointed out that I missed! This game is going to be fantastic, i can't wait for it to release
I was literally in the middle of my Game Development Theory class lecture when I first saw this (the Direct itself started about half an hour before class), and it took me EVERYTHING I HAD to prevent myself from yelling out with joy. That didn’t stop me from smiling VERY PROUDLY, nodding my head happily, tapping my foot to the nostalgic music, and rocking back and forth in my seat, because the simple fact that Nintendo even remembers Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door AT ALL makes me REALLY, REALLY HAPPY! Has it seriously been almost 20 years since I first laid hands on the original game at my local McDonald’s as a kid (and about 7 years since I finally beat the original game for the very first time)? Welp, no wonder I remember the game's intro music and title theme so well…
@@shades4313 Yup. XD Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door was actually the very FIRST Nintendo game I EVER laid my hands on at around 5-7 years old at McDonald's of all places (I was 5 when the game originally came out in 2004). Playing the game at McDonald's wasn't a GREAT way to play though, because their GameCube consoles DIDN'T have memory cards AND they rebooted every 10-15 minutes with a blue screen (meaning I could BARELY get to the Rogueport Sewers each time). It WAS a fun time just getting to play this game every chance I could at McDonald's though (just running around swinging a hammer EVERYWHERE I could go), and THIS was the main way in which I was able to lock the character of Super Mario into my memory at a very young age. To think that the VERY SAME GAME that made me LOVE Mario and Nintendo in the first place is now being remade on the year of its 20th ANNIVERSARY (following a time in which the Paper Mario series REALLY went through a DARK AGE)............ that's just UNBELIEVABLY AMAZING.
I actually didn't realize October 11th is the on point original release for TTYD in North America, but that just fits in even better with my thoughts on the remake's release. Luigi's Mansion 2 HD had a release window of Summer 2024. That in mind, with TTYD remake only said 2024, which makes me think that if it was to release any earlier than Summer 2024, it probably would've mentioned it. Also it's kinda cool that they really kept ALL the details, including the poster in the Glitz Pit of the Bulky Bob-omb, despite such enemy not even being in the Glitz Pit.
A Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door remake means we're one step closer towards a Super Paper Mario remake. And Dimentio being brought back to a new generation of people. Looking forward to how people react to that.
About Peach’s theme sounding more slowed down, I think that’s because in the original game, Peach’s theme actually IS slowed down, or rather, a different version of Peach’s theme plays during the cutscene after the Shadow Queen is defeated. I think that’s the version we hear used in the trailer for the TEC cutscene. In the actual game, however, we’ll most likely hear a remake of Peach’s regular, upbeat theme during her segments, so that’s worth looking forward to. 😉
I hope there's a changeable soundtrack option in this remake. Not to say the arrangements heard in this trailer are bad, I just think it'd be great to hear the old soundtrack with the new visuals.
Right? I never got to enjoy this game.I can’t wait to play this game. Though I’m dreading my encounter with the Shadow Queen(my favorite boss) and hooktail. I can’t decide which scares me more😱😱😱😂😂😂
I'm pretty sure that "small set of rectangles" in the Puni bubble scene is actually a puni counter, showing how many Punis are on the platform (currently 00) rather than just random rectangles showing Mario where to stand.
I'm so excited to play this game so badly again. I've never played this paper Mario game. The only one I did play was the origami King? Unfortunately, so hopefully in the future, more paper Mario game Remake will come.
@22:55 there's a small detail I'd only just noticed, but if you look at the stained glass mural, the eyes of Doo_liss actually follow Mario as he walks. I cannot even express how much I love that
Played this in 2004 as a kid and now 2024 20 years later I get to relive this masterpiece, I'm excited to see some secret stuff Nintendo will add and maybe even a refighting bosses in post game!🎉 0:01
I’m excited to finally get a chance to play this since i was born in 2004 so i was a baby Now we shall see if I’ll be 20 when the remake releases or still 19
It’s great that not only are they rereleasing this game, but also remastering it, by improving things that felt off in the original, such as how not only Mario and Peach have back sprites, how the pigs in Twilight Town now are paper-like instead of being actual pigs (I just felt that was kind of weird okay), the fact that characters are now more expressive (one of the few things you could say the new Paper Mario’s improved on the old one) which help make them feel more alive and less like actual pieces of paper, and probably others, such as making Luigi’s L in his hat be the right way. I wonder if there are going to be any significant changes, since this game will take four years to make, cause I thought for a remake, it would of only take two or three years to make, so there probably will be maybe a new adventure, if you remember the ending of the original (I know it was really just meant to be a joke, but I feel that’s the reason why people have been demanding for a proper Thousand-Year Door sequel).
It will be four years since The Origami King, but Intelligent Systems has also made Fire Emblem Engage and the two WarioWare games in the meantime. I'm sure they have different teams within the studio, but we don't know their inner workings and if they shift people around on projects. It's hard to say for sure that they've been working on this remaster for the full four years. I wouldn't get your hopes up too high for extra content.
If the first Paper Mario game gets a remake, maybe all of the party members will have the shock expressions just like Yoshi and Goombella in this remake.
I know my opinion might not be the most popular one, but I genuinely have strong feelings for the original music in the game. The original soundtrack had this seamless quality, like it was tailor-made to fit every moment. There were no flashy special effects or over-the-top elements that made it feel out of place or exaggerated. In contrast, the remastered soundtracks come across as a bit too forceful, as if they're trying too hard to be fresh and new for the sake of it. Don't get me wrong, the remastered tracks are good but what made the original music in TTYD so special was its inherent brilliance in design. The redesign almost feels like an attempt to fix a problem that didn't exist by making it sound more flamboyant. I can already tell there's going to be a lot of "SpongeBob wrong notes" memes for this game after it drops.
The new soundtrack feels like it's just trying to look good for a presentation and cool and flashy and shiny and that's it. It just doesn't serve the original well.
Yeah, i hope there's an option in the final game to toggle between new and old music. Honestly I wouldn't mind the new music if i could switch between them, I kinda admittedly love the new Bowser theme. Just not really a fan of any of the others. I'd probably alternate between soundtracks every other playthrough.
I hope they stick with the GameCube version of the soundtrack in the release. The choice of instruments and stylization in the remake sounds off, especially compared to the GameCube version.
I’m honestly surprised enemies like Dry Bones and Boos weren’t given their modern design, since enemies were modernized in Super Mario RPG. Same with Bowser’s voice, surprisingly, especially since we haven’t heard him in a while Imagine the outrage when they reference Fire Emblem in a modern Mario game lol
There's no modern design. Boos look no different now than they did in Mario 3, the Paper Mario design is from Yoshi's Island...as in it was different from the regular design even back then. The Dry Bone variants is UNIQUE to Paper Mario, so they wouldn't change it to begin with.
I'd note that it looks like the characters are made of thick pieces of paper, thick enough that you can see the layered pieces (the gloves are most noticeable, but the boots/feet also has this effect. I'd also note that it isn't always separate pieces of paper that has this effect; Animal critter arms which do not have a full outline can still be seen overlapping on top of the rest of the body they are connected to, once pass the point where they are connected (and thus is still 1 single piece of paper)
Nope, not just you. OG Petal Meadows and Battle theme are much more present and vibrant than the new ones. Though Title Screen and Bowser's Castle are better in the Switch version. So it's 50:50 for me. Curious how the other Boss themes turn out as well.
I think the old soundtrack used more synths or electric-sounding instruments, while the new one still uses some of those but also much more real instruments.
There is but one humble request I have for this remake. An old dream from since I was a kid playing Paper Mario 2 for the first time. To fight Prince Mush
Oh boy I'm so excited to play this again. Even though I still have my original Gamecube copy, I don't think I've actually played it in at least 15 years. I know sometimes nostalgia makes you think something was better than it really is. However, after watching this video, I think this game will actually be BETTER than my memories of it!
19:25 One thing I’d like to add to this. If you watch the trailer released in Japan via the JP Nintendo Direct or on Nintendo JP’s channel, the footage is *slightly* different and actually does have that Koopa on the left *and* the right side of the bridge…? It’s possible it’s just early footage, but it’s something I thought was neat to point out.
Going off of where PM64's title theme was used in the trailer, I'm betting (and hoping) it'll be used in the beginning when Mario gets Peach's letter. Also, I wonder if the "Fire Emblem Kid" will have new dialogue that references games on the Switch. I'm betting he'll mention something like Splatoon, but he'll definitely still talk about FE, probably Engage.
Im curious if they are adding more unique designs in this remake maybe Nintendo is allowing for Paper Mario developers to take creative liberties with their IPs again.
I’m just excited to play it for the first time, since I never owned a game cube. Narrater: there are envelopes next to the book, and NONE of them are invites for Super Smash Bros. Me: god dang it
In the original thousand year door all of your partners were supposed to appear after the game was beat not just bow but only bow made the Final Cut. I hope this time they restore this I want to see goombellas tattle on all the old gang.
I love how the world is a pop-up book style made out of construction paper. I always thought that the next big paper Mario game should use pop-ups style as a gimmick. So I'm basically getting exactly what I want with this.
I REALLY hope there's new, meaningful gameplay content added to this remake. I personally never buy remakes that just improve the graphics and nothing else. I am currently more interested in the Super Mario RPG remake because the new content has been confirmed and elaborated on. Hopefully in a future showcase of the TTYD remake they will talk about new content because I think the initial trailer for Super Mario RPG didn't mention a single thing about there being new content. That purple toad is the most exciting thing to me about the entire reveal lol.
32:41 The superguard twirl is much slower than in the original. He only turns twice instead of four or five times before. I gotta say, I don't like the change and I think it looks sluggish by comparison. Maybe the fast spinning didn't look right after the transition to 30 fps? It's a bit unfortunate, but it's really a minor nitpick. I'm loving how this game looks overall and I'm super excited to play it!
Probs not. Part of the level is experiencing Mario’s loneliness of his allies leaving him. Unless you mean add it after Doopliss is bested. That could work.
The "rectangles" you mentioned at 26:55, I think, are actually the number "00". And the number probably indicates how many Punies are standing in the square in front of the pedestal
40:33 It seems like it is possible to swing hammer at 45° angle just like any Paper Mario game since Color Splash, which suggests it is also possible to hammer in all cardinal angles? Pretty cool little addition.
The mustache bowser is even funnier when you realize that in Super Paper Mario, when Mario and Luigi enter his castle in the opening scenes, he asks who the hairy guys in the back are and “we SHAVE around here” hahaha
5:57 my theory is that its just those secret songs when you are on the chapter title cards for a long while. Which is pretty neat if you never done so. However, it can alllso just be a pull for old mario fans for fun.
Why do I feel like they are remaking TTYD and the first mario RPG to see people's interest before they make a sequel to paper mario with the old type of gameplay? Also the paper mario 64 music might mean we can go back to some old paper mario 64 area. I think we will be able to go back to mario's house and that's where the music plays. I feel like they are trying to link the two games more together and might mean a sequel coming later if sales reach expectations. I really hope that's the case
You didn't mention the music's smooth transition from Petalsburg to the battle theme! Could it be something in the game or did they do that just for the trailer?
I know this is very unlikely, but since there appears to be at least some slightly new additions to the game, like that purple toad in Glitzville, I'd love to see them re-add the rest of the OG Paper Mario partners cameo appearances. Data from the original game revealed that they all had unused sprites and all of them except Parakarry and Bow were removed. This would be a great opportunity to add them back in, as well as add more nods to the OG game!

theres a framed pic of all 64 partners in "big m's" house (hahhahahah get it bc tok bob so funny ikik)
I feel like they should relocate bow to twilight town for that too
If kooper and Kolorado show up they should probably be either part of mario's expedition group or be part of the group that is deep within the cave
I also feel like it would make sense for Lakilester to go to glitz rather than goombario since there's alot of lakitu around already
having goombario in poshley heights or the train with his family would make alot of sense I think
I could picture sushi at the harbor of rogueport
Parakarry could be on a trip to petalburg delivering mail
and watt's so interchangeable I feel like you could put him anywhere

It WAS a fun time just getting to play this game every chance I could at McDonald's though (just running around swinging a hammer EVERYWHERE I could go), and THIS was the main way in which I was able to lock the character of Super Mario into my memory at a very young age. To think that the VERY SAME GAME that made me LOVE Mario and Nintendo in the first place is now being remade on the year of its 20th ANNIVERSARY (following a time in which the Paper Mario series REALLY went through a DARK AGE)............ that's just UNBELIEVABLY AMAZING.
I actually didn't realize October 11th is the on point original release for TTYD in North America, but that just fits in even better with my thoughts on the remake's release. Luigi's Mansion 2 HD had a release window of Summer 2024. That in mind, with TTYD remake only said 2024, which makes me think that if it was to release any earlier than Summer 2024, it probably would've mentioned it.
Also it's kinda cool that they really kept ALL the details, including the poster in the Glitz Pit of the Bulky Bob-omb, despite such enemy not even being in the Glitz Pit.
A Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door remake means we're one step closer towards a Super Paper Mario remake.
And Dimentio being brought back to a new generation of people. Looking forward to how people react to that.
@@SkyLordYT_lmao, good one
I wonder if they are even planning on remaking Paper Mario 64
I don't think Super Paper Mario has that great of a chance... sure it is possible. TTYD was requested for a pretty long time now though.
I can see a port, but a remake ? Nah.
Tho, paper mario 64 has better chance to get a remake
64 SHOULD be remade first. It actually needs it.
Hope this means Super Paper Mario will be remade/remastered too. That game should not be forgotten
About Peach’s theme sounding more slowed down, I think that’s because in the original game, Peach’s theme actually IS slowed down, or rather, a different version of Peach’s theme plays during the cutscene after the Shadow Queen is defeated. I think that’s the version we hear used in the trailer for the TEC cutscene.
In the actual game, however, we’ll most likely hear a remake of Peach’s regular, upbeat theme during her segments, so that’s worth looking forward to. 😉
I hope there's a changeable soundtrack option in this remake. Not to say the arrangements heard in this trailer are bad, I just think it'd be great to hear the old soundtrack with the new visuals.
They are with Mario rpg so they probably will here
Like the Pokémon remakes do?
I agree. I think everything in the new trailer sounds stellar. But the old battle theme is sooooo nostalgic
Guarantee you that the rare item seller, the one that sells the W Emblem, will have a new badge that does that.
@@16BitGamerCat A badge, huh? I guess that'd make sense.
Damn, I laughed so hard when you played the pianta voice clips over the Texts. that really would be amazing 🤣
What a perfect analysis ! Thank you. I love this game and I'm waiting impatiently
Right? I never got to enjoy this game.I can’t wait to play this game. Though I’m dreading my encounter with the Shadow Queen(my favorite boss) and hooktail. I can’t decide which scares me more😱😱😱😂😂😂
I bet this is exactly how kids who played this game back then pictured it looking like in their heads
I'm pretty sure that "small set of rectangles" in the Puni bubble scene is actually a puni counter, showing how many Punis are on the platform (currently 00) rather than just random rectangles showing Mario where to stand.
AWESOME analysis! I'm even more excited for this game now!! (which i didn't think was even possible!!)
I can only pray the original soundtrack is included as a bonus 🙏
i'd love if the original look was included too, diablo 2 resurrection style
highly doubt it will be tho
so excited for this game, i might just buy a switch to play this. one of my favorite games of all time.
I'm so excited to play this game so badly again. I've never played this paper Mario game. The only one I did play was the origami King? Unfortunately, so hopefully in the future, more paper Mario game Remake will come.
I like the white edge so much more than the white outline
the option to keep og music would be nic3
@22:55 there's a small detail I'd only just noticed, but if you look at the stained glass mural, the eyes of Doo_liss actually follow Mario as he walks. I cannot even express how much I love that
i don't think they're following Mario specifically. i think they're just inset behind the wall, creating a parallax effect.
@MultiHardcore it's a very cool affect either way! Here's hoping it actually dies follow Mario. Given Doo_liss' nature, it'd be very, well, creepy
Played this in 2004 as a kid and now 2024 20 years later I get to relive this masterpiece, I'm excited to see some secret stuff Nintendo will add and maybe even a refighting bosses in post game!🎉 0:01
I’m excited to finally get a chance to play this since i was born in 2004 so i was a baby
Now we shall see if I’ll be 20 when the remake releases or still 19
Boss refights would be interesting, and it would add a little bit more meat to the post-game experience, in addition to Pit of 100 Trials runs.
i would have been 3 when this came out
@@wildstarfish3786 I was 7 when TTYD dropped.
3:43
Flurrie's pose here is used for Dodgy Fog actually, but the expression is new.
I hope it sells well so Nintendo keeps making more games like TTYD.
4:57 I hope and pray the smorg theme sounds extremely phenomonal, since the og was hands down the best theme in the entire series
I absolutely love the relaxed music on the train ride to poshley heights 🥰🥰🥰🥰
It’s great that not only are they rereleasing this game, but also remastering it, by improving things that felt off in the original, such as how not only Mario and Peach have back sprites, how the pigs in Twilight Town now are paper-like instead of being actual pigs (I just felt that was kind of weird okay), the fact that characters are now more expressive (one of the few things you could say the new Paper Mario’s improved on the old one) which help make them feel more alive and less like actual pieces of paper, and probably others, such as making Luigi’s L in his hat be the right way.
I wonder if there are going to be any significant changes, since this game will take four years to make, cause I thought for a remake, it would of only take two or three years to make, so there probably will be maybe a new adventure, if you remember the ending of the original (I know it was really just meant to be a joke, but I feel that’s the reason why people have been demanding for a proper Thousand-Year Door sequel).
More a remake than just a remaster, but yass 😂
Where are you seeing it will take 4 years to make?
It will be four years since The Origami King, but Intelligent Systems has also made Fire Emblem Engage and the two WarioWare games in the meantime. I'm sure they have different teams within the studio, but we don't know their inner workings and if they shift people around on projects. It's hard to say for sure that they've been working on this remaster for the full four years. I wouldn't get your hopes up too high for extra content.
If the first Paper Mario game gets a remake, maybe all of the party members will have the shock expressions just like Yoshi and Goombella in this remake.
I know my opinion might not be the most popular one, but I genuinely have strong feelings for the original music in the game. The original soundtrack had this seamless quality, like it was tailor-made to fit every moment. There were no flashy special effects or over-the-top elements that made it feel out of place or exaggerated. In contrast, the remastered soundtracks come across as a bit too forceful, as if they're trying too hard to be fresh and new for the sake of it.
Don't get me wrong, the remastered tracks are good but what made the original music in TTYD so special was its inherent brilliance in design. The redesign almost feels like an attempt to fix a problem that didn't exist by making it sound more flamboyant.
I can already tell there's going to be a lot of "SpongeBob wrong notes" memes for this game after it drops.
The new soundtrack feels like it's just trying to look good for a presentation and cool and flashy and shiny and that's it. It just doesn't serve the original well.
Yeah, i hope there's an option in the final game to toggle between new and old music. Honestly I wouldn't mind the new music if i could switch between them, I kinda admittedly love the new Bowser theme. Just not really a fan of any of the others. I'd probably alternate between soundtracks every other playthrough.
I hope they stick with the GameCube version of the soundtrack in the release. The choice of instruments and stylization in the remake sounds off, especially compared to the GameCube version.
Gamexplain:i like how the camera focuses on flurry's upper body in this shot
Me:😳
Hey thanks for doing this. TTYD is my favorite Nintendo game of all time so it's very fun for me to hear ppl talk about it for 47 minutes ☺️
Lady's and gentlemen we now have a pic of bowsers father! Behold on the wall at 4:38 !
I hope they implement a setting that you can choose the old OST. Like what they're gonna do in the Mario rpg remake.
Having the og music would be cool but, really? Are so obsessed with nostalgia that you want the same outdated animations from 20 years ago 😒
Yea man i was thinking the same thing it would be nice to have the old ost in the newer TTYD.
@@genzsavedamerica2234 yea i guess your right 😔.
but I'm happy with the new animations they look really nice
They have an option for original music in Mario RPG’s remake, so it’s a safe bet it will be an option here too.
I kinda get the soundtrack thing but if u want if you want it that in depth may as well just play the original lol
I’m honestly surprised enemies like Dry Bones and Boos weren’t given their modern design, since enemies were modernized in Super Mario RPG. Same with Bowser’s voice, surprisingly, especially since we haven’t heard him in a while
Imagine the outrage when they reference Fire Emblem in a modern Mario game lol
Scott burns Bowser is back baby
What if the Toad fan kid says "There are a lot of Fire Emblem games now"
Something similar done with the Yoshi Doll in Link Awakening Switch port
There's no modern design.
Boos look no different now than they did in Mario 3, the Paper Mario design is from Yoshi's Island...as in it was different from the regular design even back then.
The Dry Bone variants is UNIQUE to Paper Mario, so they wouldn't change it to begin with.
@@ahmedfalahy9337 What did they change about the Yoshi doll?
Hyped for the remake! Maybe we even get to go to Toad Town (with the rendered pipe).
I'd note that it looks like the characters are made of thick pieces of paper, thick enough that you can see the layered pieces (the gloves are most noticeable, but the boots/feet also has this effect.
I'd also note that it isn't always separate pieces of paper that has this effect; Animal critter arms which do not have a full outline can still be seen overlapping on top of the rest of the body they are connected to, once pass the point where they are connected (and thus is still 1 single piece of paper)
is it just me or does the original ost have much more charm and energy to it?
Charm is immeasurable, so that's probably nostalgia. Energy? Maybe just the sound mixing and instrumental choice. I like both.
Yes, it's just you. These new versions are much better.
Original battle theme >
Nope, not just you. OG Petal Meadows and Battle theme are much more present and vibrant than the new ones. Though Title Screen and Bowser's Castle are better in the Switch version. So it's 50:50 for me. Curious how the other Boss themes turn out as well.
I think the old soundtrack used more synths or electric-sounding instruments, while the new one still uses some of those but also much more real instruments.
There is but one humble request I have for this remake. An old dream from since I was a kid playing Paper Mario 2 for the first time.
To fight Prince Mush
I really like this new remake game so much also who your favorite character in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door for me is koops
2:44 wait wait do i see the other partners in the blimp to?! Oooooooooo man this just keeps increasing my love for my childhood favorite!
My God, one of the best games ever made. Other than TimeSplitters 2.
FUCKING SPITTING!!!!!
@@Aggro224brah be quite
Oh boy I'm so excited to play this again. Even though I still have my original Gamecube copy, I don't think I've actually played it in at least 15 years. I know sometimes nostalgia makes you think something was better than it really is. However, after watching this video, I think this game will actually be BETTER than my memories of it!
star pieve shard whatever is also visible on the roof in glitzville when the stairway unfolds.
I already love this game so much as I played it so many times on the Gamecube. Thanks for the nice video!!!
19:25 One thing I’d like to add to this. If you watch the trailer released in Japan via the JP Nintendo Direct or on Nintendo JP’s channel, the footage is *slightly* different and actually does have that Koopa on the left *and* the right side of the bridge…? It’s possible it’s just early footage, but it’s something I thought was neat to point out.
My most anticipated game of all time
the purple toad in a martial arts gi could be prince mush showing we will get to fight him in this version
Going off of where PM64's title theme was used in the trailer, I'm betting (and hoping) it'll be used in the beginning when Mario gets Peach's letter.
Also, I wonder if the "Fire Emblem Kid" will have new dialogue that references games on the Switch. I'm betting he'll mention something like Splatoon, but he'll definitely still talk about FE, probably Engage.
Theirs 2 ways to do it, either he's still an FE stan, or he will talk about a different series that needs marketing help.
Im curious if they are adding more unique designs in this remake maybe Nintendo is allowing for Paper Mario developers to take creative liberties with their IPs again.
Very likely at this point.
It seems like Nintendo is in their creative happy place again.
I’m replaying the original TTYD, and there are currently five gumba’s in that battle you said they were only four in.
Great breakdown man clearly this is a full on remake. I’m hyped to see the rest of the changes as we play the game in its entirety.
not sure im a fan of the reorchestrated versions of some of the songs, but maybe itll grow on me
I’m just excited to play it for the first time, since I never owned a game cube.
Narrater: there are envelopes next to the book, and NONE of them are invites for Super Smash Bros.
Me: god dang it
Would be awesome if we had the option to switch between the remastered & classic OSTs
In the original thousand year door all of your partners were supposed to appear after the game was beat not just bow but only bow made the Final Cut.
I hope this time they restore this I want to see goombellas tattle on all the old gang.
My theory about the mustache Bowser painting is that that's not him but his dad.
I bet they will still save the picture of Mario’s partners from The Thousand-Year Door for the ending scene in this remake.
I love how the world is a pop-up book style made out of construction paper. I always thought that the next big paper Mario game should use pop-ups style as a gimmick. So I'm basically getting exactly what I want with this.
im hoping they'll give the option to toggle between and the old and new tracks
Tec’s light also seems to pulsate whenever he speaks.
I REALLY hope there's new, meaningful gameplay content added to this remake. I personally never buy remakes that just improve the graphics and nothing else. I am currently more interested in the Super Mario RPG remake because the new content has been confirmed and elaborated on. Hopefully in a future showcase of the TTYD remake they will talk about new content because I think the initial trailer for Super Mario RPG didn't mention a single thing about there being new content. That purple toad is the most exciting thing to me about the entire reveal lol.
Can you show me where the super Mario RPG details have been elaborated on?
I wonder if that remix of the original Paper Mario theme may actually replace the music that originally plays in that cutscene at Mario's House.
32:41 The superguard twirl is much slower than in the original. He only turns twice instead of four or five times before. I gotta say, I don't like the change and I think it looks sluggish by comparison. Maybe the fast spinning didn't look right after the transition to 30 fps? It's a bit unfortunate, but it's really a minor nitpick. I'm loving how this game looks overall and I'm super excited to play it!
The only thing I'm still REALLY hoping they add is some kind of pipe or something between Creepy Steeple and Twilight Town
Probs not. Part of the level is experiencing Mario’s loneliness of his allies leaving him.
Unless you mean add it after Doopliss is bested. That could work.
Or have a new path back to town so it's not a hallway backtrack simulator.
By the way, does anyone remember? Toadsworth was in the original TTYD! That means, he will finally return!
Excellent analysis and comparison!
I jotice that the coin count in the top left tab is longer meaning u might be able to hold more then 999 coins.
The "rectangles" you mentioned at 26:55, I think, are actually the number "00". And the number probably indicates how many Punies are standing in the square in front of the pedestal
Did anyone else notice that in the new battle HUD, the coin counter has three digits but there's still a space to the left?
40:33 It seems like it is possible to swing hammer at 45° angle just like any Paper Mario game since Color Splash, which suggests it is also possible to hammer in all cardinal angles? Pretty cool little addition.
5:18 there’s a photo that has all the old ally’s 😊
im guessing that alot of the script changes are made to make it more simmilar / accurate to the original japanese text
Awesome job. I can’t believe how much u got out of that trailer. I can’t wait for this game I loved it on GameCube so much.
How sick would it be if the Paper Luigi storyline would be playable as extra content
bro made me feel so old when you said this game came out 20 years ago lol
The mustache bowser is even funnier when you realize that in Super Paper Mario, when Mario and Luigi enter his castle in the opening scenes, he asks who the hairy guys in the back are and “we SHAVE around here” hahaha
Does anyone else prefer the old tunes?
I like the new remixes, but some are just too different or the mix of the sounds just doesnt feel the same.
5:57 my theory is that its just those secret songs when you are on the chapter title cards for a long while. Which is pretty neat if you never done so. However, it can alllso just be a pull for old mario fans for fun.
Why do I feel like they are remaking TTYD and the first mario RPG to see people's interest before they make a sequel to paper mario with the old type of gameplay? Also the paper mario 64 music might mean we can go back to some old paper mario 64 area. I think we will be able to go back to mario's house and that's where the music plays. I feel like they are trying to link the two games more together and might mean a sequel coming later if sales reach expectations. I really hope that's the case
You didn't mention the music's smooth transition from Petalsburg to the battle theme!
Could it be something in the game or did they do that just for the trailer?
I'm calling it right now: Paper Luigi and The Marvelous Compass will be a playable addition to this game.
