Paper Mario 2 shots

[No Control]

Now why couldn't Super Mario Sunshine have as much character as this? The pseudo-realistic worlds and the bad character design are in complete contrast to this:

This is ow the one game I am truly truly looking forward to, not anticipating a game this much since SMB3 on the NES

[Melon_Bread]

Now thats my kind of game, beautiful!

[Kelthink]

Looks lovely...but it's probably going to be an RPG! Whinge.

Jesus, that top one with the skeleton koopas is absolutely amazing. Any video footage been released yet?

[Guest]

It looks a little "Yoshi's Story"...notice how the screenshots have different ranges of zoomed. Let's just hope the gameplay is much better...cos it looks LUFLY!

[patriot]

this game will be awesome...

[Alex W.]

Great googley moogley...

[Vemsie]

The heart of a geek beats like crazy....

I love how his face is constructed from two bits of paper.

Am I hallucinating, or is the skeletal soldiers + hammer one the Burly Brawl reference I've been expecting since Mario & Luigi?

It would be hilarious, yes.

[elmo]

Thanks guys! Now i reall need to take a shit.

This looks amazing!

[Bojangle]

This should be truly amazing. Really, really can't wait for it. I'm just glad it wasn't an Aprils Fool! Roll on Q4!

Er... have you played Paper Mario 1?

[toonfool]

Fantastic. Ed's looking forward to it, I don't play games anymore, I can't get near to the machines as the bairns keep playing. Still, I get to watch them.

Looking forward to watching this one.

[Sabreman]

That looks absolutely bloody ace.

[TheSlugFormerlyKnownAsNap]

Wow, that looks very sweet! I definitely prefer this to Mario Sunshine's styling, it really fits the whole Mario world much better.

[tosser]it looks gay and kiddy!!11 LOLZ!![/tosser]

it looks great... beautiful but in a basic sort of way..

gameplay details anyone?

[auntyclimax]

come on nintendo, a new 2d mario platformer please....

/me is getting irritated.

[pretentious_helvetica]

Yes, please. I still need to play the original, to be honest. My bad.

2D gaming shouldn't die though. Metal Slug teaches us this. Yes.

[hub2]

I like. A LOT.

Maybe a bit *more* stylised would have been good but I'm well up for this one.

Hopefully it'll have some VJ style graphic shenanigans too.

[hub2]

Holy crap, even more here...

Is mario taking part in some kind of TV quiz show?

*Stunning*

[Uzi]

that looks freaking amazing

[Jim Miles]

HOW much do I want to play this game? (ie. very)

As regards the quiz show screenshot, there was that quizmaster who (I assume)randomly appeared in the original so maybe it's like that? What was his name? Chuck something? Quimbo? That wasn't it. Similar though...

[hub2]

Is that a bow tie I see the block wearing? Nice touch.

[Sabreman]

This is the kind of thing that gets me excited about videogaming - something with a bit of flair and visual imagination, rather than photographing a bunch of textures and seeing how realistic you can make a tree look (for example).

But the big question is...will Nintendo be arsed to even release it over here?

[pretentious_helvetica]

Fuck it, if they release it in Australia, I'm happy.

*taptap* Mes loves internets shoppings.
