I've always low key felt that I preferred 64. It's really close between them for me. I think the one aspect that separates it is the Peach sections are SO much better in 64.

I don't *disagree* with you necessarily, but I *also* have a feeling that you *may* have some nostalgia for 64.

8 months later, and when I look at the music between each original game, it's definitely interesting to see how the style changed. The first game was entirely scored by the Fire Emblem veteran Yuka Tsujiyoko, built mostly on familiar Super Mario themes, with a few new stuff, in her particular style (something I noticed has lots of similarities to Thracia 776). All of that makes a very nice, cozy feel to everything; even most of the tensest songs don't completely abandon this. Meanwhile, Paper Mario: TTYD saw the use of newer synths, seeing a more overtly electronic style be embraced. Plus, much more of the game has completely new sets of motifs. In addition, you get another sound artist, Yoshito Hirano (now Sekigawa), who was then a new face in the VGM world. It very nicely creates a more "new" feeling, like you're in an unfamiliar adventure, which the game itself does. This of course was doubled-down on even more with Super Paper Mario. Comparing just the originals, I definitely enjoy the first game's soundtrack for the above reasons, though I am glad TTYD switched things up.

Fun fact: Your the only person that Supper Mario Broth is subscribed to

I got used to the frame rate, but never stopped wishing it was 60 fps. That bit of extra smoothness just makes games feel so much better. That and the sluggish UI are my only two main complaints. One negative that I’m surprised you didn’t mention is how Mario twirls way slower during super guards (likely a result of the slower frame rate). It’s really a minor nitpick, but the original one looks like such a more powerful deflection by comparison. Overall though, I loved the remake! The visuals, new music, quality of life changes, and new content made it so great to revisit TTYD.

standard paper mario fan ranking. you even ranked the remake below the original ttyd so youre even a standard gamer as well. sorry if that came off as rude, ive kinda grown a resentment twords how paper mario fans treat the later 3 titles becaue of how different they are. same thing goes for how NSMB and super monkey ball and RE6 are treated as well. i really wanna make a video on theese games that are great but hated. probably break the mold for whats aceptable in opinion. get a bunch of hate coments, and probably and very unlikley help more people see what i see in sticker star.

TTYD: terrible music, have to play with sound off. Also, extremely boring compared to 64.

One thing I and some others have noticed with the new soundtrack is the heavy use of violin/strings throughout. Just like Origami King, woodwinds and strings take a much bigger role, whereas something like Sticker Star relied a ton on saxophone/brass. Or how TTYD/SPM uses almost exclusively synths (64 used MIDI sound, which is different). Of course, many of the bosses, and the final chapter use electric guitar (played by Yoshito himself)and vocals prominently, also similar to Origami King.

I might be in the minority here, but I'm not a fan of most of the new songs. The main problem I have with most of the remade songs is that they're much more "busy" and "noisy". It's like they doubled the number of instruments that play at any given time, and personally I find it overwhelming. The phrase "less is more" comes to mind. A notable exception to this is Magnus Von Grapple's new theme. I love what they did with that one.

If you're looking for one big way to make the new game harder is to deal with the outsized effects the Power Rush badge has on the game. They need to make them significantly more expensive (100 - 125 "Pianta bucks" lnstead of just 34 or 50). Or have them take two BP's, instead of one, to activate! By making them so relatively easy to acquire, they basically take control of the game. It's the equivalent of making M-16's available to the defenders of the Alamo! That would also make the game better because it would throw in another strategy component (Cost/Benefit analysis) to consider. Another suggestion is to have some additional reward that will actually impact the game, that you can get for completing all the "Troubles" side-errands, like you do for completing all the Badges ,Tattles, and Recipes! And if they could do something about cutting down on the excessive (and unnecessary) running back and forth for no particular reason, in certain sections of the game (just to make the game last longer I assume), would be great.

I don’t know why this isn’t more talked about but Vivian’s character dialogue being changed to more fit the original Japanese script is something I find amazing. It was bad for localization to take away some of her story about being a trans woman and being excepted as the shadow siren’s sister, rather than brother. The remake changes it to fit its Japanese script in all languages.

Kamy koopa

I prefer the original for the glitches. I had a great time getting 100% while also getting 11 crystal stars.

The item names are restored from the original Japanese names. I know because I play the original with a patch that restores a lot of the original Japanese dialogue and whatnot

So. Am I the only person who actually likes Paper Mario Sticker Star

Hows that text slow?

I think color splash is a good game. (My first paper Mario might be hypocritical) the game looks great and I played it at least 10 times it is crazy creative. The music I am dancing the whole time.

13:51 it kind-of happened as having Prince Mush as a Superboss.

I like the change that acknowledges that Vivian is Trans!

I’ve always believed that TTYD had the much higher highs, but much much lower lows. The original on the other hand is a much more consistent good experience.

Kamy koopa!

Goombario aside the Duplighost are creepy lol

paper Mario 64 has one of the best bowser battles

There is no fault with your arguments good sir. I can only hope for a remake someday and a true squeal to TTYD

Very cool

I one hundred percent agree with you on the paper Mario origami over super paper Mario. I played both for the first time this year and I enjoyed Origami king but with super paper I felt like it was a chore.

The new sound design is my only issue

have you ever touched a women?

Sticker Star is indeed complete shit, but Color Splash isn't nearly as bad as you make it out to be.

ITs funny because I always was the type to be like yeah TTYD Chapter 3 peak Paper Mario Grubba the best fight But you are right, he has nothing to do with the overarching story at all

18:36 I also thought this was a massive improvement but others didnt, saying it felt more Banjo Kazooie than Paper Mario

Pre watch: Hammer throw being worse isn't on here and Im okay with that

Not much of a fan of some of the music I prefer the original, the battles feel to easy an there’s a long delay for some odd reason the u can collect more items which is great but the problem is the battles r so easy I never need to use the items

I think bro runned out of ideas

Personally I want to live with doopliss

Nice vid!

Now I wanna go on a picnic. I gotta agree with 1

1:19 I hope there’s steamed hams at this picnic

The purple skies of the final level would probably be my favourite picnic spot! The ominous clouds would be a sight to behold, and the winds would no doubt be comforting as long as they're not too strong!

he's back

Do you really think that goombaria participated in the plot

Does it have a creepy AI computer that does not fit the world? Does it have an unnecessary and weird species of alien things that could be removed without really affecting the story or final encounter? Paper Mario 64 is the best game, period. And it does not reslly need a remake. It is already perfect. TTYD is largely unnecessary.. and a new entry would simply be better than the same thing again. If people are so nostalgic about these.. just play the original!

Unscripted video... Oh, no wonder. Paper Mario 64 does not need a remake. It is already perfect. TTYD is largely unnecessary.. and a new entry would simply be better than the same thing again. If people are so nostalgic about these.. just play the original!

I LOVE YOUR TOP 3

I liked the world of PM64 a lot more. The desert area, the hillside area where you fight Tubba's heart, the Snow area, the jungle island, those all jump out at me with how much you explore and how large the areas feel despite them being mostly flat. Even the shy goy tox box I found fun and I liked the cryptic method of entry. The only TTYD chapter I prefer over any of PM64's is the glitz pit chapter.

This is my favorite game of all time too Man
