'''Koopa Village''' is a small village in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' that is home to [[Koopa Troopa|Koopas]] and some [[Bob-omb]]s, the latter of which escaped the [[Koopa Bros. Fortress]]. It is near a hill on [[Pleasant Path]]. As is hinted by [[Merlon]] from the prologue, [[Mario]] and [[Goombario]] are required to go here to help [[Kooper]] for him to join the party because he has to use him to activate a switch in [[Pleasant Path]]. When they arrive, however, they find that [[Fuzzy|Fuzzies]] are attacking the town, and they can optionally help out some of the Koopas who had [[Beach Koopa|lost their shells]] to the Fuzzy menaces. The pair also meet [[Kooper]], a Koopa with a blue shell who eventually became Mario's second party member. A Fuzzy stole [[Kooper's Shell|his shell]] and he asks Mario to get it back. Once Mario retrieves it, Kooper joins the party. After he helps Kooper defeat the [[Fuzzy|Fuzzies]], they flee, and several [[Bob-omb]]s reside in. After Kooper joins, a [[Star Piece (Paper Mario series)|Star Piece]] is accessible on a brick in the eastern part of Koopa Village. There is also a Star Piece hidden under a panel to the left of a group of Bob-omb in the western area. [[Koopa Koot]], the elder of the village, is an old, senile Koopa who asks people for favors often, which has given him a bad reputation. However, he gives out rewards for completing his favors.

Later in the game, the Koopa Troopas in the village write Mario a [[List of letters in Paper Mario#Koopa Troopas|letter]], thanking him for taking care of the Fuzzy problem and apologizing for not being able to reward him for it. Mario needs to go to the village to take or finish several sidequests, such as [[Koopa Koot]]'s favors, the [[Trading Event Toad#Radio contest events|Trading Event]], and [[List of letters in Paper Mario#Normal Letters|letter delivery]]. At the end of the game, Parakarry visits Koopa Village to tell [[Bombette]], who is seen to have resided here after her adventure with Mario, that she is invited to the party at [[Peach's Castle]]. After that, [[Kolorado's wife]] comes and asks Parakarry to find her husband.

Koopa Village is a village mainly consisting of grassland, with a row of six houses in the northern side, all of which look like [[Koopa Shell|Koopa shells]] and most of them feature island-based décor. From west to east, they are: a [[Toad House]] run by [[Mort T.]], [[Koopa's Shop]], a house that resembles a blue shell, [[Kolorado]]'s house, [[Kooper]]'s house, and [[Koopa Koot]]'s house. Bushes can be found in the southern part of the village. There is also a tree which the Bob-ombs relax in the shadow. [[Turtley Leaf|Koopa Leaves]] can be found in some of the bushes. To the back of [[Kooper]]'s house is a path to a forest, which Mario visits on his quest to retrieve Kooper's shell.

Behind [[Kooper]]'s house is a path to a forest, which Mario visits on his quest to retrieve Kooper's shell.


The house that looks like a blue shell is home to a relaxed Koopa who lies in his hammock all day listening to the radio. On the radio are three stations: one called "Golden Oldies Station," which plays a direct cover of the credits theme from ''[[Super Mario World]]''; another called "Island Sounds Station," playing an original song; the "Hot Hits Music Station," which plays [[Pop Diva]]'s song after she is given the [[Lyrics]] and the [[Melody (item)|Melody]]; and an Information Station that hosts trading events. In these events, Mario can participate by bringing certain items to [[Trading Event Toad|a pink Toad]] in certain areas across the Mushroom Kingdom, for which he will be rewarded (often with items more valuable than the ones traded).
