Talk:Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

There's a LOT of stuff to trim
1. The boss section is too long. Can be fixed by just naming the Bosses and mini bosses

2. The crystal stars and special moves do NOT have to be seperate sections. They can easily be one section. They also give too much information, seeing as how they each have their own page.

3. Add the chapters sentence into the Story section.

4. I think the tattle should be its own section.

My 2 cents.

Questions
How does the gameplay change when you play as Bowser? What are the controls when you play as him?
 * It's played more like a side-scroller when you control Bowser, instead of an RPG. Except in Poshley Heights Almighty Rajah 17:03, 5 August 2006 (EDT)

Featured Article Material
Do any of you think Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is good enough to be a featured article?
 * There should be a general paragraph on the story. Also, critical acclaim? Looks like each section is a bit short. This has been a good article for a long time – maybe I'll play the game over a 3rd time soon and make this my next game project. 23:38, 5 February 2007 (EST)

Madam Flurrie
"She can blow wind at enemies to make them dizzy and blow fake walls away, revealing secret passages. She also dreams of becoming an actress."

Isn't she already an actress? I thought she said that she was tired of the stage and took a house-vacation, until Mario came along.

That is true. She returns to the stage after her adventure with Mario. -- Son of Suns

Merge
This should be merged with, I think. Who's with me?
 * I am. 21:15, 26 April 2007 (EDT)

OK. Should we vote on it?

Since no one else has responded, and it's unanimous, I'll merge it.

okay this page looks kinda messy now :(

Chapters
Shouldn't the Story and Chapter be taken out of this article, and be a moved to Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Chapters). After all, our Paper Mario page doesn't have a story, instead there is a seperate page for the story titled Paper Mario (Chapters). What do you guys think?

Actually, there used to be a chapter page for this page too, but it got merged into the article. I think that one needs to be merged too. 22:18, 27 June 2007 (EDT)

Audience section
The audience section looks like it has been directly copied from the audience article, it even tries to link to the article itself and also mentions Super Paper Mario. I think it needs a rewrite. - 05:51, 29 December 2007 (EST)

About the Similarities Section
The content of the Similarities section is good, but I noticed that heaps of the points say "in both games." There are 3 Paper Mario games...so I'm guessing that was written before Super Paper Mario came out. I would fix it, but I'm not exactly sure how to...I'd just stuff it up. Is that saying SPM doesn't count, just because it's half-platformer? That's unfair. Someone experienced should fix it.

No-one reads these article Talk pages...so, meh.
 * I fixed that. - 13:08, 10 June 2008 (EDT)

Bosses section
The Shadow Queen and Bonetail both have the Special Attack "Various Severely Dangerous Magic". I know we can't list everything here, but "dangerous" doesn't really sound like a good word here. It sounds like an opinion. I think we should replace it with something more neutral. - 17:46, 2 January 2009 (EST)

Plot
I fixed the plot to be more neutral. Should I get rid of the rewrite template?13:25, 13 July 2009 (EDT)

Fake Images or Official Artwork?
While drifting through various pages related to Paper Mario 2 I noticed that there are articles with pictures that just... look wrong somehow. Characters with poses and facial expressions they actually never took during the game. I will make a list:


 * Bub - What is with his eye?
 * Businessman - See the article's talk page
 * Cleftor - I remember his facial expression to look different, especially his eyes.
 * Francesca - May just be taken during an unfortunate moment, but it looks strange.
 * Frankie - He never does anything like that in the game iIrc, and it looks strange.
 * Goldbob - His feet look misplaced.
 * Green Fuzzy - See the article's talk page.
 * Lucky - Same as Bub.
 * Rocko/Vinny/Tony - Both of their arms are visible in the game, here it is only one of them.
 * Toodles - I cannot recall her to blink like she does in the picture anywhere.

These are some of the articles with pictures I find strange. What do you think about this? Please leave your opinion. - 16:49, 21 October 2009 (EDT)

A former user named made these images in around 2006. He utilized the pieces from this link, and attempted to recreate the image of the character himself. Unfortunately, since he left (presumably for other stuff), these images remain in the database. Should we renew the images with more clear detail anyway? - 01:34, 7 November 2009 (EST)
 * Definitelly. Some of them are ok, but the other ones don't look that right. - 01:37, 7 November 2009 (EST)
 * So I'm guessing we should remove the mentioned pictures? --

Goofs
There are a few translation errors in the game.

"You got a super boots" "You got a ultra boots"

Also, the phantom sisters (or whatever) are referred to once as "male" due to their being male in the Japanese version.

I don't think so. Those two errors never happened to me, and they also were never referred to as male in the Us version.

To learn more about this "male" topic, you can go to Vivian's page User:J-yoshi

Gallery
Why doesn't the page have a full gallery? There's only the Japanese boxart and two scenes. Most major characters in this game have artwork, so we should probably have a gallery with all those artworks. 15:27, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
