Out of Bounds Secrets | Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door - Boundary Break

[@Hi_Just_Fred]

5:59 head canon is that's either Bowser's dad OR Bowser when he was trying out a mustache to seem more attractive after Mario seemed to have better luck than him.

[@jadaw644]

I figured one of his minions did it as a prank. 😂

[@richardkirkland6805]

​@@jadaw644 Could very well be both. Bowser tried having a mustache, it didn't work, and his minions made that painting so they would never let him live it down.

There’s a toad loaded out of bounds in the boggly woods because he’s used for a trouble later in the game. But it’s completely optional

[@blueyoshi8517]

Have to say it, I kinda wanted to see how the boat in the intro does its "paper-thin flip" despite being a 3d model.

[@kiwi__1011]

i’ve watched it frame by frame and can kinda see where the model changes, it’s either a model swap or the boat is actually getting squished on the x/z axis

[@WackoMcGoose]

@@kiwi__1011 In the remake, it's definitely a model swap. I did a frame-by-frame, and it's quite clear that the boat turns _shiny_ when it gets paperized, and un-shines when 3D again.

[@MirrorHall_Clay]

In the original game, it's a frame-buffer trick manipulating on-the-fly screenshots. Used quite a lot for effects like blowing things away and switches creating objects.

[@WackoMcGoose]

@@MirrorHall_Clay ...You know, I always wondered how that worked. That's actually really cool that the GameCube could do that, considering it's a difficult trick in _modern_ game engines (due to _not_ having such low-level access to VRAM)...

Gamecube might be 20 years old, but it's ability to render hundreds of NPCs at once still stands the test of time.

[@djbvck]

I love how this game really shows off a lot of interesting game dev techniques with its 2d/3d design combo. The use of perspective tricks like the book (tbh thats such a simple effect, there probably isnt an easier way to do that? it looks great) and the way they layer character parts is really cool.

Play the original instead, this has censorship and adds gender bender crap

[@CadDriftarus]

​@@impachoblue1301 I have a sadly hilarious story about buying my personal copy a few years back. Gamestop sent me a copy with reidue along the center, couldn't make it pat the demo scene. Based on reviews of TTYD, it seems this particular copy had been returned at least three times prior, and just sent back out into circulation. One more person seems to have recieved it after I returned it. I got a different copy from Ebay. Ironically a Gamestop copy that still had its label from like a decade ago lol

[@MachFiveFalcon]

@@impachoblue1301 I'm exactly the same, except I missed out on Luigi's Mansion but had a friend who was really into it. My mom gave me a choice between Wave Race: Blue Storm and Luigi's Mansion, and I chose Wave Race for some reason lol. Still a great game though!

[@fireaza]

"Nokonoko Freight" is likely a reference to the Japanese courier company "Kuroneko Yamato Transit"

[@tykat12]

[@Twisty_Studios]

2:26 If the localization team got creative, they could've easily called it something like "Troopa Transport" or something along those lines

[@phillipstreams]

The galaxy of dry bones is geninely moving to look at.

[@CadDriftarus]

I like to think, that Bowser, in his never-ending quest to be cooler than Mario, made the Koopa that painted his portrait give him a decidedly manly moustache.

[@HavikXIII]

When the fish chomps mario and the game stores his arms, it looks like it's because the animation for flailing removes his arms and just shakes his hands rapidly. He's on the screen for like, what, 3-4 frames? It's not enough time for a kid to get a good enough look on a GameCube, so it's just another workaround to avoid unnecessary and tedious animations. Either move his arms which costs time and money, or remove them completely and just shake the hands for .25 seconds

[@Srcsqwrn]

I'm really excited for the new game, thanks for covering this! As usual, wonderful episode! Thank you so much for these, Shesez!

[@neverstepd7]

[@Jayjar100]

8:20 that lone toad is used for a postgame sidequest, where he asks you to beat all the enemies in the room for him

[@Tmuttgaming]

I don't know if you ever did a boundary break of Okami, but that would be a cool one to see.

[@amandaslough125]

I second the "of not yet done" vote for Okami.

[@CadDriftarus]

Okami and Soul Calibur II are my dream Boundary Breaks.

[@kelvindavis172]

8:20 - That Toad is probably stored there because of a Trouble Center quest. This Toad wants to see the Great Tree, but the enemies are getting in his way, so you have to kill them for him.

[@magmangle]

the toad stored underneath boggly woods does have a purpose. having replayed the game on the switch recently, one of the postgame troubles at the trouble center is of a toad who wants to visit the great tree but cant because of the hostile monsters on the wat to it, and asks for someone to take care of those enemies. the toad is probably there and interactable before you defeat the monsters but began the trouble.

[@velvetbutterfly]

6:07 I assume that is meant to be Bowser's father / a previous Koopa King, with the facial hair implying it to be an older ruler, not the young, hot-head Bowser is shown to be

[@Yougottubed89]

Thanks for another high quality episode.

[@TheEmeraldWeirdo]

About halfway through the video, I started hearing rain and thunder effects, and wondered "why did he add those?" Then the video ended, and the noise didn't, and I remembered I had Minecraft running in the background.

[@B0ssguy]

[@Barveth]

Shezes's "you would never be able to see it" hits different

[@ghostbiologist4488]

Mario's room is probably based on the first paper Mario game where you can actually explore the house

[@cheesex-1429]

Mario without a mustache is crazy

[@UltravioletNomad]

So my guess to the reason why the pages in the intro are like that is because the flipping pages need to be culled, brought in and out at the same position, but the pages underneath need to be visible whilst the pages are moving. Ultimately the page we are currently reading does not need to be a 3D object UNTIL it is flipped, and having every page layered as 3D objects, especially ones with enough vertices to roll over smoothly, is costly for memory and creates problems for lining up the next page. Essentially they want the pages we are currently reading to be static in the frame, they can't be layered lest the pages clip through each other at the same position or change perspective in a stack. The best solution is to just play a video with each static page, and then cover up the transition with the current page popping in as a 3D model, perfectly lined up, playing its folding animation, and effectively disappearing into the roll on the left.

[@aphetcha]

I love your energy in all of your videos 💪 keep up the amazing work!!

[@Erik_The_grate]

I need to see someone make a port of super paper Mario to the switch using the ttyd remake as a base.

[@atomdecay]

I'm currently playing through the remake & its funny, most people are reliving old memories from decades ago, while the last time I played TTYD on Gamecube was less than a year ago 😂 the remake is AMAZING though! & so is this video! Awesome job, Shesez! I'm proud to own a Shesez plush!

[@enigmafarce5413]

About that portrait at 3:15, an even somewhat experienced artist would not draw that even if he literally had only 5 seconds. I suspect it was intentionally crude.

[@TriforceWisdom64]

It's unused, so it's most likely a placeholder

[@richardkirkland6805]

The thing is that this is a video game artist. Video game developers will make very crude artwork as a placeholder, or if they know a player is never going to see it anyways.

[@dubblebubbletoilandtrouble6646]

I kind of assumed it was supposed to be a crayon drawing from when they were kids.

8:18 the toad under this scene is from a side quest where you need to kill all the enemies for him to be able to walk to the punie's tree

[@SingItNew]

Still can't believe after all these years, that there has never been a Wii Party episode of boundary break

[@ArtThingies]

5:18 I'm guessing it's the mesh they use for the transparent halo around the wall lights, but with a normal render. I do wonder if that was intentional or if they meant to have that halo applied to the lamp in some capacity.

3:00 you can enter the room if you just go back to the house in game, you can enter the room for a star piece, even sleep in the bedroom

[@davidmartin5483]

5:28 I think that the texture within the lamp might be the same as the one on the shine of the lights just lower quality because of the rescising and the lightbulb is actually another texture put on top of the shine texture in order to give a bit of a 3d illusion. Basiclly I'm saying the the bulb and the shine of the lights in the lamp room might be two diffrend immages and not just one.

[@BlahoogaDMD]

We just got both a boundary break and a lost bits episode of this game within the same hour. Awesome

[@gferrol118]

8:18 That Toad is there because one of the trouble centre quests has a Toad appear there, and asks you to defeat the enemies so he can get to the great tree

Mario's House is the same house from Paper Mario 64

[@ReddMcKnight]

No way, this is amazing! I knew Mario was stored off-screen in any instance (I forget where I saw that. DYKG, maybe?) because without him, the game just won't work, but to actually see him (and everyone else) clumped together is just...man, the head-canon theories are running WILD right now! Thank you so much for making this! I hope we see something related to Ninja Gaiden Trilogy someday! :) 10 outta 10 video and presentation!

The lamp inside peaches room uses the Purple Pokeball Texture Image

[@TheSquirrelly]

This. I saw that and immediately thought pokeball and how do you not see that? One of those things where you're thinking one thing, so you can't see something different. 🙂

[@reinatycoon3644]

This intro was amazing. Here's hoping this video can at least reach 200k views by the end of the month.

[@philledzone]

5:15 I believe that the texture is the actualy light coming from the lamps and not a texture for the lamp itself. That way it would make sense if the middle of the texture was darker/transparent so you could still see part of the lamp

[@bakuiel1901]

[@checkoffgames]

One thing. Aspect ratios are read as ratios, not multiples, so 16 _to_ 9.

[@GroundMemory]

Seeing how every character that gets called into a scene at some point is stored below it until prompted, kinda sheds some light on one of the reasons that the remake would run at 30 fps. I can truly appreciate the remake for how it looks on the Switch from a technical standpoint. It's fine as a 30 fps game. I'm just SO HAPPY IT'S REAL! And I can't wait til I can get a copy!

[@zeckemyro7031]

The lone Boggly Woods Toad is Doe T.. he asks you to clear the room's enemies to get to the Great Tree in his post Chapter 8 trouble.

[@RadTroppy]

8:19 That Toad appears in that section after you finish the chapter. He's part of a Trouble Centre task.

[@jaybee3960]

the tapistry of drybones makes me wonder if the game devs had any kind of internal camera tool that allowed them to even see that they had done that

[@flyingfist4203]

[@I0NE007]

7:45 "why are mario's arms stored way outside the boudaries?" probably for the same reason as the the characters stored underneath the map. Except instead of the vertical position being deep below, the depth position is set incredibly far and the other coorinate values set to Zero (and with how the location coordicatees act, end up placing it very near to where the world-camera lies, with the other coordinate values being Zero), Or at least that is my theory: someone switched the XYZ thinking it was XZY (with Y and Z commonly being Height, but differing between conventional preferences).
