Talk:Paper Mario: Sticker Star

Should it still have ? -- 16:53, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't see why it should; "Paper Mario" is the name the game is currently officially known by on Nintendo's E3 website.--vellidragon 16:56, 17 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Agreed, Also I moved the page in the way Zeldawiki did with The Legend of Zelda (Wii).

Whomp, Enemy or Obstacle?
I highly doubt that Whomps in this game are enemies, but rather obstacles. I mean the kind of obstacles like the Thwomps, Spiny Tromps & Spiky Tromps from Super Paper Mario. Whomp is never actually confirmed as an enemy and besides, if Whomps were enemies, then they are the biggest non-boss enemies in the paper mario series. I'll remove whomp from the enemy list until it's been officially confirmed. User:MarioMaster720
 * They attack you, and they kill you. Sounds like enemy. -- 03:14, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

How do you know that the Whomp kills you? it might as well only take 1 damage point like the said thwomp group from my first comment. I'll at least add that the whomp isn't 100% confirmed as an enemy. If they are enemies, then they at least aren't enemies you fight in a direct battle because, they're HUUUUUGE! User:MarioMaster720
 * Enemies are enemies. Whomps classify as enemies so leave it away. -- 16:26, 1 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Besides the thwomps from spm are still enemies due to having a catch card. And papermariottyd had some HUGE enemies.

I dunno... For right now we dunno anything about it, but if you don't engage it in battle, then it only has as much right to be called an enemy as the Munchlesia from Paper Mario (the plant that takes away 1 HP from Mario and uses a single coin as bait). For the record, it's in the Enemies category, but not listed as one of the enemies in the Lavalava Island article. I don't see why it's not put in "Other" with Wiggler, though, because as far as anyone knows that might be engaged in a battle and be an enemy.--Topmonhit 18:23, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

That Wiggler, an enemy? No enemy could look that happy. I'm sure though, whatever that Wiggler does, it'll turn red and be angry, so perhaps it only has to be fought when it's angry. And it's so big, if it was an enemy, it would have to be at least a mini-boss. If you ask me, it looks like that Wiggler is about to use it's body as a bridge to cross the poisonous water, like the Giant Wigglers from NSMBWii. In fact, the PM Wiggler looks like a Giant Wiggler. I'm almost certain it's a bridge. I'll take a good look at those pictures again to be sure - looks like the Red Koopa Troopas have ditched the shades and wristbands!
 * Fawful is that happy. ...but yeah my point was more about the Thwomp, I don't actually think the Wiggler will be fought but it always could be. The Thwomp could be--but it could not be, which is why I figure putting it in "other" would just make an "unsure for now" type'a deal.--Topmonhit 12:15, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

Well, to close this, until we get further info, they will remain where they are. -- 18:37, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

The whomp definity sounds like enemy, as Thwomps from Spm are considered enemies (catch cards), but I always thought the Wiggler was a Partner...

The Wiggler (and another like it) are bridges (Told you). Look at the Youtube gameplay video - there's a link to it at the bottom of the article. Sorry about all the green text after my sig, I'll fix the codes. From !

Where? Maybe thats one of the wiggler's parnter ability?

Game playable on common DS lite?
Hey guys,

not sure if it's okay to post this question on the talk page of this game, but since I don't really know where else to go (and since this might also be of interest for other users/players) I thought I'd post it here :)

Can Paper Mario DS also be played with the older editions of the DS, like DS light or DSi? Or will I have to spend money on a 3DS if I want to play it? Thank you in advance for your time. Kennymon
 * It is for the 3DS, and since the 3DS is a successor, it probably won't play on the older DS systems. Also, next time you want to ask a question like this one, ask it on the forums.


 * OK, think about it. Paper Mario 3DS. Does that tell you anything? Sorry if I sound a little rude, but it's true.


 * I wish Nintendo would change the name. This is the sixth guy I've heard who thinks you can play 3DS games on a DS.

Is Super Mario 64 DS playable on the Gameboy advance?
 * Nope. Super Mario 64 DS is for DS, you said it. And post that on the SM64DS article. --TheVirus~ 12:27, 5 September 2011 (EDT)
 * That wasn't a quesstion.

Well, Nintendo has developed myriads of NDS editions so far, and up until now all DS games could be played on them interchangeably. Therefore I wasn't sure and just wanted to know. No need for harsh words IMHO. Kennymon

The 3ds is not a myraid though. The other dses were just part of the original ds's "evolution" like the gameboy advance sp to the gameboy advance. The 3ds is a successor to the other Dses, not a Nds edition. That's pretty obvious. But this discusion shouldve been in the forums.

3DS games cannot be played on previous DSes, but DS games can be played on the 3DS. A Link to the Present 17:34, 22 January 2011 (EST)

3DS games cannot be played on the DS Lite but since they have a little grove to them but I want to know if you play a DS game on the 3DS will it be 3D. Jjrapper100
 * No. The 3D is only present in games designed to have it, whether they are actual cartridges or 3D Classics. Anything else is in 2D.

Partner Betrayal???
Why does the chain chomp seems to be attacking mario???
 * Well, the "King mole" seems to be attacking Mario at the time, so the mole probably hit Mario shortly before that screen shot was taken.
 * I think that rock hit Mario, not the Chain Chomp. User:DK Fan
 * It's just jumping... -- 19:22, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn`t see that rock.

European release date
I don't think we should accept this as proof of a release date, as there is really NO proof. Only proof of a possible rumored leaked estimated guess.

The following is the first paragraph from the article on that site: ''Looking through the 3DS game pages, various people have noticed a date for an upcoming 3DS game on the Nintendo Europe website. It revealed what could be a leaked release date for the new Paper Mario on the 3DS. The release date, which may have been mistakenly put up said 'March 25th 2011'. It was then taken down and has since disappeared.''

Note how it says "what COULD be a leaked release date", as well as "which MAY have been MISTAKENLY put up", and finally the it was then TAKEN DOWN and has since DISSAPPEARED", not to mention that article's title is "Paper Mario 3DS Release Date Leaked?" and not just "Paper Mario 3DS Release Date Leaked" (i.e. it's a question). Only include dates that are CONFIRMED. Not "leaked", "rumoured", but actually OFFICIALLY confirmed.--TheUltimateKoopa 17:32, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, you're right. I was wondering why it was up anyways, since it looked untrustworthy, (really Europe BEFORE Japan and America? I know thats racist/baised but thats how its usually is) but there was a citation there so...

The Europe before Japan thing wasn't the thing that gave me doubt, it was the actual cited "source". As mentioned above, where I capitalised the particular words that gave me the biggest doubts. If a release date is said to be "leaked", do NOT accept it. If it's said to be "confirmed", accept it.

Right. Besides not even the 3ds's official date has been released so we have Paper Mario 3ds's release date? For all we know, the release date for 3ds could be AFTER April.

Reference to other games.
Look at new images: the hills, the flowers, the brushes, and many other things are in New Super Mario Bros. Wii style. It's a reference?
 * That is not exactly a reference. Also, please make your sig fit here . -- 21:01, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm agree, not reference at all. P.S. PPS. Mine fits
 * The levels are reminiscent of NSMBDS/Wii... too reminiscent--Holyromanemperortatan 16:56, 18 January 2011 (EST)

OFFICIAL can't be wrong!
It has been announced in the OFFICIAL nitendo magazine in europe that stickers will play a huge part in gameplay. The frog suit power up thing, is actually a sticker and so is that wooden bridge. I'm not sure how you get stickers in the game but I know that they can be used in battle or to overcome obstacles. I think some stickers can only be used in battle like the frog suit and some only for obstacles like the bridge but maybe they can be used for both (the frog suit could be used to attack enemies and to jump over obstacles too). Maybe they can be collected and then used as an item or maybe a sticker is an attack like the blocks (vacum block, jump block...) in bowser's inside story. It could also be a collectable to replace the catch cards in super paper mario wii. If you don't believe me just buy the magazine or wait until it comes out. I'M TELLING THE TRUTH!!! I tried to edit the page on this wiki but it won't let you. From Paperchaos

It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that you need to link to a credible website or get a scan out of the Nintendo Magazine to be able to put it in the article.-- 22:35, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

I don't know how to scan it, but can't you see that in one of the pictures the hammer command is being peeled off/stuck on and the bridge has a white outline like the stickers in smash bros brawl. In adittion go on google and put "paper mario 3ds stickers" and you will see that there are a massive amount of websites that say that stickers will be the main gimmick in the game. Also go on youtube and put: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPCsFAmIxCM and somewhere in the video you will see that the frog suit sticker is clearly being peeled off and stuck onto mario. From Paperchaos :What he says seems to be true. -- 20:16, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for the support but the magazine i'snt called nintendo power europe, it's called Official nintendo magazine (or ONM for short). From Paperchaos

Stickers and more... !!
hey guys if u see Mario fightning Koopa Troopas and Goombas in the plains u see his HP AND FP and down the HP is said S maybe that the sticker powers like the frog suit and the bridge but that what i think !! oh and the Helmet that appears with the icon jump maybe that Helmet is a sticker too that prevent Goombas jumping on Mario ( u know like Mario jumping on a spiky Goomba but revearsal Goombas jumping on Mario )!! :O and the castle that the Whomp appears maybe that Chapter 1 cause all the Chapters 1 are in Castles atleast in PM64 and TTYD !! but the real question is if that Whomp is a enemy u can fight what he doing in Chapter 1 he might be strong and u a rookie !! oh and the other photo of the castle tha Mario fightning Goombas that another reason is Chapter 1 cause Goombas are first enemies like Koopa Troopas u know !! well this is all i thinl !! --27blink27 18:04, 29 December 2010 (EST)
 * We can't add anything until it has been confirmed by Nintendo. -- 21:42, 29 December 2010 (EST)

Volcano?
Was it confirmed to be volcano? For me it just looks like red forest with podoboos.
 * Red forest without trees and with lava, then. Or it's just a volcano. Koopalmier 10:46, 9 January 2011 (EST)
 * I looked at the video below, and I see it's indeed volcano.

New video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVMW3TlCPGw But can it be used as a source ? Koopalmier 10:45, 9 January 2011 (EST)
 * It seems official, so I think.
 * On youtube someone said:

"0:41 'Got a﻿ Spike Hat!'"
 * But in article it says:

"'Radiation Spike Top shell'"
 * First one made much more sence that the one in article. Can someone confirm that?
 * I put that there as a rough translation. Thinking about it, you can see a greenish glow around it, and the enemy name Spike Top is at least partially in there. Maybe we can see if 2257 can do a better translation. 16:49, 10 January 2011 (EST)
 * It appears you are right. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. 17:01, 10 January 2011 (EST)
 * Is the Spike Top Item's name confirmed? It looks more like the helmets worn by Spiky Goombas--Holyromanemperortatan 20:58, 10 January 2011 (EST)

Podoboo?
Wait, a Podoboo in this game? Maybe it's a Lava Bubble since the Lava Bubbles have appeared in previous Paper Mario Games.
 * No, it was podoboo. In the video it was showed jumping from a boiling lava, but lava bubbles are always floating on the ground.
 * They are the same thing.--Thejfh1999 21:29, 2 December 2011 (EST)

Wait...
When are they going to annoce the official name?
 * Probably at the next E3. DK Fan

Partners
I was watching a video on the Nintendo Channel, and I thought that I saw a Bob-omb following Mario around. I was wondering if anyone else has seen this and if we could add it as a partner. --Volcarona 17:49, 18 March 2011 (EDT)
 * If you've played the first game, you should know that if the enemy shows "!" mark above its head, it's gonna attack you. Those were enemies.

The characters in the game so far are a Chain Chomp, & a Green Toad

Release Date
So, a big question mark is the release date. Nintendo has stated that they will release this game, among others, a month after E3. The local GameStop says it'll be released on August 2nd, but I'm still not sure about the exact release date. --Hasfarr 20:35, 27 March 2011 (CST)

My GameStop said August 8th, but it also said Luigi's Mansion 2 will be released then in the past... aka undefined 18:54, 31 July 2011 (EDT)

No first strikes?
anyone else notice in the video when he jumped on the goomba in the field,he didnt get a first strike when he should have? yoshiyoshiyoshi
 * There is…

10 partners announced?
I have no evidence but i heard that it was announced to have 10 partners. does anyone have any evidence on this? yoshiyoshiyoshi
 * Where did you hear it? It's not here.
 * He saw it in comment by proskiproseph in E3 2011 video. He didn't give ANY source, so I think it's speculate info. Here's what he said:"ATTENTION! Paper mario 3ds has been announced to have over 10 unique partners! FINALLY! So thumbs up so everyone can know since people think there wont be partners!"

Bob-ombs
In the picture with the Para Bombs, I think it's safe to say that Bob ombs will be in the game, seeing as there are some wandering as well.

The Awesome Yoshi Fan Tails777

Monty mole
Since there is a king Monty mole would there be Monty moles?

It´s not confirmed. Doopliss appeared in TTYD, but the Duplighosts didnt. User:MarioMaster720

Well Doopliss wasn't a king and kings usually have minions so there has to be Monty Moles and I know there will be. We will just wait I guess.

http://www.mariowiki.com/skins/common/images/button_media.png The Final Game? http://www.mariowiki.com/skins/common/images/button_media.png
It says here that Paper Mario 3D is that last game in the series. The Mario series, or Paper Mario series is unknown.

http://i.imgur.com/Q6roI.png

It is probably fake because it even says Super Mario Galaxy 3 DS. We haven't heard about that at all so it is fake but it could be possible that it is the final Paper Mario game. We will have to wait.

Green Toad Partner???
Is the Green toad really confirmed to be a Partner? It never appeared in battle and It´s a completely normal-looking toad. The Chain Chomp was normal as well, but it was shown in battle and it had shown its overworld ability. It could be a NPC that follows you for a short while, like Flavio and Goompa. It´s not confirmed as a partner yet, so it should be removed from the Partners section and put somewhere else unless someone can prove that It´s a partner. User:MarioMaster720
 * According to the source that accompanies it, it's a partner. 08:00, 19 June 2011 (EDT)

Resemblance?
Why does it say "unknown item resembling a mystery box" it is one. Do you say "unknown creatures resembling goombas"?
 * We don't go speculations. See the Chronology.
 * Yeah it has to be named first



God it is a mystery/mystery box! If that is not fosho a mystery box, then you cant say the blue turtle thing is a buzzy beetle.

Yeah,but thats just speculation. Kelton2 Supermariofan I GOTTA PEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 07:38, 1 February 2012 (EST)

Podoboo?
Should Podoboo be in the features section instead of the Characters#other section, cause they are technically living creatures... - Four Paper  Heroes   19:18, 27 July 2011 (EDT)

2012 release date D:
It says,unfortunately,in my august nintendo power,that it is scheduled for a 2012 release date.


 * It actually makes sense if Super Mario 3D Land is still slated for November. Nintendo doesn't want one game to be overshadowed by another.

New, Interesting Footage
On the 3DS Press Conference, new footage about this, Mario Kart 7, Luigi's Mansion 2 and Super Mario 3d Land. All of these articles need urgent editing. Here is the link to the Paper Mario 3DS Footage: []. User:MarioMaster720

Partner Information
Gathering up all of the information from the various trailers, I can say I'm curios how partners are used in the game. Mario is the only one in the battles we've seen so far and the boxes with the numbers 1, 2 and 3 seem to be his order of attacks, as if partners do not play a role in battle. --Mechawave 04:58, 14 September 2011 (EDT)


 * The page says that the crown from the trailer is a partner, but I'm pretty sure it's one of the collectable plot elements in this game, like the Star Spirits, or the Crystal Stars. I think this because, in the first trailer when the book is opening, you can see a page with 7 crowns silhouetted. That was most likely the first one you rescue that the part we saw was going to lead into a tutorial about how to use him. So that would leave the Chomp and the Toad. Chaoxys

Peach confirmed!
At the beginning of the Nintendo 3DS Conference video Peach is there with the crown partner on her head. When Mario is unfolding there is a picture of Princess Peach (it can be seen more clearly in the Nintendo Channel version). When I paused the video right when Mario jumps/unfolds, I saw that Peach was wearing the Crown partner (or atleast a similar crown) on her head. This confirms that Peach will at least make a cameo appearance. Before I add it, I want to hear some more opinions. Should this be added or what? I think that it DEFINETLY deserves a Trivia mention if it won't get directly added (unless someone has a good reason that it shouldn't). and yes, that IS Peach! Now I want to hear some opinions and sorry for the long comment ;) User:MarioMaster720
 * If you find some video link or source to reference with, she should probably be added to the confirmed characters section, as that at least would be confirmed. As for the context of her appearance, I'd say that adding something like that to the article would be speculation at this point, even though it certainly stirs the imagination.

The proof/video is in the article itself. The Trailer can be viewed. (It's "Nintendo 3DS Conference Trailer"). So.... Should she be added? User:MarioMaster720

Anyone? I need another response before I edit it! User:MarioMaster720
 * http://i.imgur.com/P6OHi.png

Yes that's the clip I mean, but in the Nintendo Channel version of the trailer you can see her whole face which makes it 100% that it's Peach. So....I'm going to add her? User:MarioMaster720

Should I add Peach or not? I need an answer! User:MarioMaster720


 * I would say she could go in the protagonists section, as long as the photo with proof is referenced properly.

So....Can anyone put her in? I'M not Quite good at the reference thingies. The best would be a picture from the Nintendo channel trailer since it shows more and confirms 100% that it's Peach. User:MarioMaster720

Again, Can anyone add her!!!! User:MarioMaster720

CAN ANYONE ADD HER PRETTY PLEASE!!!!! ;) User:MarioMaster720
 * I added her to the Supporters and referenced it properly, so there you go.

Thanks ;) User:MarioMaster720

Inactive External Link
Perhaps this doesn't matter too much, but the third External Link is no longer active on YouTube. I can't delete the link myself because this page is protected. James&lt;3 02:08, 20 October 2011 (EDT)

Yes, you may.

The page is protected from editing because it's about a yet-to-be-released game. James&lt;3 02:31, 20 October 2011 (EDT)

Oh, then i'll do it, thanks for the inform.

Um
I think Paper Mario 3D can be unprotected now...

Are there any more partners we can add?
Has anyone found out any other partners so we can add it to the page? SuperPaperFan 20:30, 7 December 2011 (EST)

We have yet to receive any more information about this game so far. What we know so far in terms of partners is that a Chain Chomp is seemingly a partner alongside a Green Toad (both of which were in the screenshots and gameplay). The silver crown like being may also be a partner as well. After that, we have no other information about the other partners. For all we know, these partners can also still be in development as well (since we saw very little details on them as well). 1:44, 8 December 2011 (EST)

Release date + name?
On the website of a toy store in the Netherlands, it says they start off with saling on December 31th. Well, I ordered one. Then I can get it on Decemeber 31th. Does everyone agree in putting the release date on the page? On the same website, it's called Paper Maio 3D.

It's either a scam or they meant december 31th 2012. There is too little info on the game so far. I HIGHLY Doubt that Nintendo's going ot release it that fast. They won't. If they would they would already confirm the release date and they would put up more trailers. Believe me, it won't get released this year. If it will I'm going to eat my hat and jump for joy. Sorry, but it isn't true. and besides "Toy" stores are usually wrong about games. Have you tried going to a game store or electronics store? :) This comment will probably disappoint you, but it's true. User:MarioMaster720

Do you have a link to the site? I would like to see who puts up those lies there! User:MarioMaster720


 * After a long search, I've found it again: link one. Go down. There are three columns, one with "TOP 5 - VERWACHT" above. Number one mentions Papaer Mario 3D, with the release date December 31th 2011. link two. This is the page, though not having an official image.
 * I'll translate link two:

This product did not appear yet. Comes in on December 31th.

hahahaha that's the most fake thing I've ever seen! that website is retarded. The game will NOT come out at December 31th 2011 so face it! It will NOT come out! IT WILL NOT! I'm 100000000000% sure! If it does come out and you prove that you have the game and it works, then you have the full right to ban me if you want. That cover is fanmade. I know Nintendo, and they would NEVER make a cover like that. It's 100% fake. Believe all you want but it's the truth. I went to over 5 different video game stores here in Norway and they ALL said that the game would be released in 2012, but they do not know when. When I told them about the site's claims they ALSO said that it was fake and that it must be a scam. Sorry but I believe in them, NINTENDO themselves and common sense. Sorry if the comment seems like an insult, but I just want you to know so you won't be disappointed after either you get a fake empty box or the site itself changes the date :) PLEASE BELIEVE ME! User:MarioMaster720


 * Iwouldn't ban you.


 * 1) I said in my last comment thet the image was fake, wich was also stated on the website itself.
 * 2) I ordered one, so they MUST deliver it. Otherwise, they are an bad quality toy store.


 * ) They won't deliver it. If they do and the game actually works, then make a video or prove it. You probably CAN Pre-Order it, but it will come after December 31th for sure. Maybe it'll come in....March or July? User:MarioMaster720


 * Ugh... I can't stand it... now changed to 30 April 2012. Can we add that to the list, anyone?

That would make sense, but that website isn't accurate. We NEVER post release dates for games unless Nintendo themseles confirm the release date. We have to keep 2012 for now. Don't change it because that's breaking the rules of the wiki. And I just have to say this, I don't mean it bad but about the site's previous "official" release date... I TOLD YOU IT WAS FAKE DIDN'T I!!!! :) User:MarioMaster720

Plot information?
So, I was analizing the Nintendo 3DS Conference trailer with my 3DS and I discovered some possible plot details about the game. On the beggining of the video, as cited above, Peach wears a shiny, white crown with eyes. After Mario stands up, we can see (if we pause correctly) a poster of a mountain shining on the top at night with the words "Seal Festa" at the bottom. Above this, we also see a big poster also with the words "Seal Festa" on it and a meteor drawing. This Seal Festa thing could be a party or a celebration of some event, like the Star Festival from SMG. If we wait just a little longer, we see yellow lines with "KOOPA" and a Bowser sign stamped on them. This means Bowser crashed the party again, possibly taking the princess with him. Later in the video, we see that the crown Peach was wearing is actually a being, maybe a new kind of species, who is Mario's partner. Any comments about this? -- 10:59, 11 December 2011 (EST)


 * It's a good story, although I would say that this is more of a forum discussion.

Conflicting PEGI Ratings
Hang on. How can Paper Mario 3DS be rated 3+ on the PEGI rating system when the same rating system rates its platform 7+? I'm just curious, because they almost seem to conflict each other... --Dus T. 12:44, 17 January 2012 (EST)
 * Having a rating for a console is very unusual, but was done for the 3DS applications that came with the 3DS. The ratings of the system and its games are independent of each other in this case.

Nintendo Magazine release date ?
According to the Wikipedia page, issue 77 of the Official Nintendo Magazine says the game will release in Europe in Summer 2012. However, I'm doubtful about the validity of this. Can anyone confirm it ? Koopalmier 04:13, 6 February 2012 (EST)

Someone who told me they had the magazine said it was true! I still need some proof though. Anyone who has that issue, you can help Mariowiki by sending in a picture of the release date.


 * The problem is that a lot of games are given release dates that prove untrue
 * Honestly, we should wait for official confirmation from Nintendo (based on the conference stuff, not magazines). I don't know if the Official Nintendo Magazine has a history of incorrectly stating release dates.  18:54, 17 March 2012 (EDT)

Stickers?
Should we put a sections for stickers? All the ones in that picture can be confirmed, and there might be more. pipe projects away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 14:15, 17 March 2012 (EDT)

Not now. You stated, "can be" means that it's a possibility, not certainty. Until we get official confirmation, we shouldn't create sections based on speculation. 18:56, 17 March 2012 (EDT)

Move Page
Nintendo Power named it Paper Mario 3D (temporary title). Couldn't we move this page? 19:36, 12 April 2012 (EDT)

Considering it's for the 3DS and uses 3D aspects, it seems more like a nickname they gave it rather than an official name. -- firebrick purplebluegoldbluegreen firebrick
