✶ ⋆ ✶ ⋆ ✶ ⋆ ✶ ⋆ ✶ ⋆ ✶ ⋆ ✶ ⋆ ✶ ⋆ ✶ ⋆ ✶ ⋆ ✶ ⋆ ✶  Fans using this hashtag propose that Nintendo remaster the 2004 GameCube title and bring it onto the Nintendo Switch, so that more people will be able to play the game and experience its magic without having to camp out several nights on eBay and send an ambulance for their wallets. While you don't really hear much about it at the moment (...I mean, it has been three years lol), word of this outcry did kinda spread like wildfire on Twitter at the time, and the petition Arlo made on change.org is sitting at nearly 55K signatures as of this very posting! There's even been an article made on it by some gaming site around the time the video was posted. ...well, it's been three years since then. Does anyone still care, and are some of you supporters on this site? Me personally, playing Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door has been a part of my childhood that I hope to never forget. I've beat it, one of my siblings has beat it to the point of clearing the Glitz Pit twice, and even my nephew's beat it, all three of us on the same copy we've had for I want to say over 13 years or so now... we all adored our times collecting Crystal Stars through this wacky adventure of a Mario game, and even nowadays I sometimes feel tempted to replay it all over again (yes, backtracking and all lol)... and who knows, I might do just that sometime. So of course I'd like to support the cause and hope that many more people may get a chance to play it legally in the future... but the most I can do for now is make a thread talking about it again, after all this time. So... how about the rest of you? Have you played Thousand Year Door, and whether you have or not, will you join the cause? :)  |

| I love the game but I have zero faith in Nintendo to remaster the game effectively. They will water it down for sure. Also fun fact I never beat it as a kid, it came out when I was 9 and I was a dumbass little idiot who only leveled up HP. I had I think around 120HP and I was stuck on the Grodus fight right at the end of the game lol. |

| I would love this. I'm skeptical on it actually happening, but if it does, it might show that there is still a market for the original Paper Mario style. |
 This ground is soiled by those before me and their lies. I dare not look up for on me I feel their eyes |
Kajiuran said: Well yeah, obviously I think it's safe to say that we'd rather get a brand new game with the combat everyone actually likes.I'd rather get a proper sequel than a remaster. But the reason why #RemasterThousandYearDoor was proposed instead of that is because of what Starfire said here: StarfireDragon said: I'm skeptical on it actually happening, but if it does, it might show that there is still a market for the original Paper Mario style. |
|
| That'd be cool to just have it on the switch for more people to know about the game. I think it still holds strong as it is with how creative it is with visuals, rpg battle mechanics, and storytelling. I've replayed it a few times, and it's still seems great to me. If they do think about remastering TTYD, it wouldn't hurt to remaster the first one. |

Maumuu said: I agree with how amazing the game is even to this day! In Arlo's original video, he considered giving the first Paper Mario similar treatment, but it's already gotten rereleases over the years, including on the Switch recently.

It's a shame since there's so many good ones on there. |
|
| Definitely, since Dolphin is essentially the most feasible option of playing most Gamecube games these days. Bug Fables is decently popular and showcases that there's still a market for RPG Paper Mario games. If Nintendo does remaster or port it, then I hope that they will do the same for the Baten Kaitos games. |

Crow_Black said: its now 55k but still alot and i mean alot more to go to get as much sigs required and i think its high time for avgn to start reviewing the paper mario games. AVGN wouldn't understand those games, he's out of touch with any games released after 1995 |
| TTYD is one of my favorite games, and probably the game I've replayed the most times (the badge system gives a lot of possibilities for challenge runs). I'd rather Nintendo make a new Paper Mario game in the vein of TTYD instead of a remake. I remember being hyped for Sticker Star, thinking it would be some epic adventure in portable form. |

It's just that a remake could be advised first just to prove to Nintendo that there still is a market for classic Paper Mario. |

| Dude we can't get nintendo to make a new f zero and a fan went as far as becoming a sherholder of nintendo and still couldn't do it. |

With the recent announcement of Super Mario RPG of all games being remade, I'm still holding out hope for this game. Anyone else agree? Have any new thoughts on this? :) |

I hope that it is well-polished and does well in sales, so that it tells Nintendo that people still want Mario RPGs—we just want actually good ones.Fario-P said: I'm still a little skeptical that it will happen, but then again I never expected in a million years that Mario RPG would get a remake... sooooo who knows?With the recent announcement of Super Mario RPG of all games being remade, I'm still holding out hope for this game.

| I like what I played of Super Mario RPG, but I lost interest before getting to the end. Perhaps it's because I grew up with Mario & Luigi and Paper Mario, but Super Mario RPG doesn't feel like a real Mario game to me. It's merely an RPG like any other on the Super Famicom, except with Mario's face plastered on the box. |
| その目だれの目？ |
Lucifrost said: For me and my family members, Super Mario RPG not feeling like your average Mario game was what made it stand out from not just other titles in the franchise, but other RPGs, with its simple addition of "Timed Hits"—you know about Timed Hits, right? (:P) Probably don't need to say this because you probably already know, but while there were a few games where Peach/Toadstool was playable, she wasn't playable to the extent in this game before and the game goes way further than the usual story of saving her from Bowser. I don't blame you for preferring the Mario RPGs that came after it though, but you can argue that they just simply expanded on and upgraded further on the baseline this game had set. That being said, I really do recommend you give Super Mario RPG another go sometime in the future and finish it all the way to the end.I like what I played of Super Mario RPG, but I lost interest before getting to the end.

Fario-P said: I can see that. I just see little reason to play it now, when we have access to newer games that do more to establish a Mario RPG identity. I suppose Super Mario RPG still makes a good gateway for fans of old RPGs trying to get into Mario. A lot of "classic" RPGs suck in my opinion, so that fact that this game doesn't is a huge point in its favor.you can argue that they just simply expanded on and upgraded further on the baseline this game had set. |

Lucifrost said: It's understandable to not want to play it because of its relative simplicity compared to its successors, but I personally still like to revisit Super Mario RPG every now and then even if we have The Thousand Year Door and Super Paper Mario. In a way, its simple and straight-to-point structure is pretty good and makes it bearable for repeat playthoughs, and the Timed Hits and all that are always fun to me. I guess I'm just one of the types that like to honor the old but gold stuff... I mean, you do that to an extent with Osamu Tezuka's manga for example, but I guess not everything is for everybody and people tend to go through things in their own ways sometimes, right?Fario-P said: I can see that.

Fario-P said: I don't think that is remotely comparable. The closest manga I've read to Astra Lost in Space is They Were 11, a manga published over 40 years beforehand. They all use the same storytelling and artistic techniques that were developed long before Tezuka was even born. The video game is a recent invention and lacks that kind of history. Gaming has changed SO MUCH since the 80s that you'd never be able to recognize Final Fantasy 3 and Final Fantasy 13 as the same series if not for the title. But you're right, there's nothing wrong with wanting to play something old and simplistic. It's just that the Super Famicom has many such games, and even Sega's console has Phantasy Star IV! I'd rather play that or Dragon Quest when I'm in the mood for that sort of thing. I still need to try Chrono Trigger one of these days; I hope it's not as bad as Live A Live and Earthbound.I mean, you do that to an extent with Osamu Tezuka's manga for example, but I guess not everything is for everybody and people tend to go through things in their own ways sometimes, right? |

You didn't like EarthBound? Huh... well uh I do hope you enjoy Chrono Trigger, at least! They're about the same level of quality/god-tier for me, but they definitely have appeal different enough from each other that I could safely say you might like it. It is literally timeless. |

Fario-P said: I have no idea what this means. I do think you understood what I said before, but there is a point I'd like to clarify. When I read a book from the 80s or even earlier, I don't think of it as old. When I play a video game from the 80s, I DO think of it as old.I didn't mean reading any of Tezuka's manga that may be similar to something new |
