-The '''Flip Meter''' (also called '''Flip Gauge''') is a meter in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. When Mario uses his [[Flip]] move, it will start decreasing every two seconds. When the meter is empty (after about ten seconds), [[Mario]] will lose one [[Heart Point|HP]], and the meter will immediately refill. If Mario flips to 2-D, then the meter will slowly start getting the points it lost back, but it does not need to be full for Mario to flip to 3-D. The Flip Meter only appears in 3-D or when it's getting its points back.

+The '''Flip Meter''' (also called '''Flip Gauge''') is a meter in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' and ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''. When Mario uses his [[Flip]] move, it will start decreasing every two seconds in ''Super Paper Mario'' or every second in ''Paper Mario: Color Splash''.
+==History==
+===''Super Paper Mario''===
+In ''Super Paper Mario'', when the meter is empty, [[Mario]] will lose one [[Heart Point|HP]], and the meter will immediately fully refill. If Mario flips to 2-D, then the meter will slowly refill, but it does not need to be full for Mario to flip back to 3-D. The Flip Meter only appears in 3-D or when it is refilling. It will also fully refill if the heroes recover HP through an item.
+If the heroes collect the Mario [[Catch Card]] in the [[Flopside Pit of 100 Trials]], the Flip Meter will not decrease as long as they are in possession of it, enabling Mario to stay in 3-D for an unlimited amount of time.
+===''Paper Mario: Color Splash''===

+In ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'', the meter has an appearance similar to the timer featured in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and starts at 10 units. It does not show up when in 2-D mode, as well. When it is empty, however, Mario does not lose any HP, but is instead forced to return to the 2-D perspective. Furthermore, it is completely filled as soon as Mario returns to said perspective.

-If the heroes collect the Mario [[Catch Card]] in the [[Flopside Pit of 100 Trials]], the Flip Meter will never decrease, enabling Mario to stay in 3-D for an unlimited amount of time. If the player decides not to take on the Flopside Pit of 100 Trials, they can use a [[Long-Last Shake]] or another item that causes HP restoration to prevent the Flip Meter from emptying.
