CGRundertow PAPER MARIO for Nintendo 64 Video Game Review

[Quilwott]

Intelligent Systems is my favorite company/Sub-company! Paper Mario 2 is my favorite game!

[janfeyen9]

Why did Square have a fued with Nintendo?

[muiscnight]

@janfeyen9 I think because the Nintendo 64 still used cartridges with CDs developers could use more memory and make longer games like RPGs

[janfeyen9]

@muiscnight

Makes sense, back then... So we missed Final Fantasy 7 for limited space, and no cut scenes, no I do not take this

[smashbrosfan25]

i got all the way to the final castle when i was a kid and i suck at RPGs now

[averageblackreviews]

@FalconCrestlover73 they are part rpg

[STEFANROCKER23]

Ahh Paper Mario, my favorite RPG of all time. Soooo good, man I love this game..

[papatoony]

How did Hiroshi have a fit and drive off Square and Capcom??

[pippo17173]

This game will live on as the best RPG on the N64 to ever have.

[averageblackreviews]

@pippo17173 it was the only rpg on the 64

[RawHunterX]

@averageblackreviews How about "The Quest"? Look for it.

[Joeyboots80]

@averageblackreviews Quest 64, Though it was crappy. And I think Ogre Battle 64 also counts, and it's not crappy.

[WebVMan]

Now that I actually watched this review, YouTube says I didn't.

[SkittlezAK]

FINALLY!!!

[Kingthug25]

paper mario has to be one of my all time favourite games,love the story,gameplay is fun,paper mario wii wasnt fun gameplay wise,but the story was good,glad they are going the traditional routes with the new paper mario game

[PaperMarioN64Gamer15]

I wonder if i should do a let's play when i become partnered? don't know, maybe so because it has my name on it. =-)

[redsoxfan1984]

God, TJ is almost too awesome for Undertow. He should leave and join Jen on Overboard. Keep the dumb reviews on this Undertow and keep adding cool ones to Overboard.

[achievement84]

What about that Ogre Battle game for the 64? Wasn't that a pretty good RPG for the system?

[VonSeux]

SMALL NUMBERS!!! thats so much easy to keep track to... hate how the numbers on Final Fantasy are

[VonSeux]

the best game on the N64 after Ocarina

[WebVMan]

Dire? Are you forgetting Ocarina of Time? Majora's Mask? Ogre Battle 64?  And uh.... Uh.... Wow. The N64 really does need more RPGs.

[WebVMan]

YouTube said I watched this review already. LIARS.

[rdDolphinX]

This game is great and I love it, but I think Thousand Year Door is even better. Review that too please.

[StrawberryGuy86]

To think, what would originally be a followup to one of the greatest Mario RPGs of all time, ended up becoming a series of it's own. Not to mention, it later inspired Nintendo to make another for the handhelds, where you play as Mario and Luigi simultaneously, which we all know as: the Mario & Luigi RPG series. Now I getting excited for the upcoming release of Paper Mario 3DS in 2012!

[IblisLucario64]

@StrawberryGuy86 paper mario 3d is coming out this year

[StrawberryGuy86]

@IblisLucario64 Really? I could of sworn I heard something about it being pulled back to next year.

[IblisLucario64]

@StrawberryGuy86 i dont know

[Mr8bitgamer]

reaview eaethbound kNOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW­WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW­WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Gum2Gum]

Hey I liked quest 64, but then again when your poor any game you come across will be fun.

[SolidSnake684]

My favorite game of all time. Nice review

[Shanedapain3991]

"the character desighn is flat" oh i get it :P

[TwistedN]

Tj sounds like a deep voiced Derik.

[gameman64141]

The Bowser music is the best iin this game.

Could never get into Mario RPG got stuck and didn't really lilke it.

[vgbjason]

Premtive attacks are revolutionary? Those were in Earthbound.

[Dualpicks]

I like this TJ guy. Keep-um comin!

[Newbpwn3r180]

review Paper Mario 2 Thousand year door

[MamaLuigiBarrelRoll]

The Paper Mario games are probably the only post-SNES Mario games that aren't extremely easy to beat, making them the only post-16 bit ones in the series that I'll play.

[kingdomjacko]

This is one of those games you could port to a current system and someone without knowledge of it's existence would be none the wiser.

[MrSaturn97]

Actually, at least as far as I'm concerned: there were no preemptive strikes in Super Mario RPG. Please correct if I'm wrong.

[mymulletnamedralph]

I like TJ, he definetly better than most of the CGR Jobbers. and Im glad that he would take and make a great review for my most awaited review by undertow. :)

[javierortiz82]

Love this game, haven't finished it though, it's on my shelf collecting dust, no more time for games u.u

[Salvatox]

Quest 64, Paper mario, Aidyn chronicles: the first mage and Hybrid heaven, all the rpg for N64 right?

[neofunface]

i was allways sick of mario games, they are everywhere, and nintendo hammer them over and over again...

[DaveTheSodaGuy0]

this is one of the few mario games I actually finished.

[SonofMrPeanut]

One of my favorite games of all time. Still just as endearing the decade since I first played it. :_) Can't wait for PM3DS.

[shadowtsunami]

I need to go play this game

[TheCaptainEpic]

Who is TJ? I like his review style.

[ladieslovethebanana]

thumbs up if you went into google translate and typed in "squaresoft"

[kreftmaker]

This is the best Mario RPG.

[ladieslovethebanana]

@kreftmaker SECOND best. the sequel is vastly superior :)

[kreftmaker]

@ladieslovethebanana I love TTYD, but the first one to me is the best. TTYD had a lot of backtracking. Chapter 4 was really annoying.

[Thewwekiller]

@kreftmaker Agreed about chapter 4. I can handle a little backtracking every now and again, but that was waaaaaaaaaay too much. Go from A to B back to A back to B back to A. UGH.

[jimmyelgringito]

@kreftmaker I'm going to have to say that thousand year door is the best mario RPG game, but paper mario is the best mario RPG series. (in my opinion.)

[LetsPlayMrMike]

@GarthMcCreery I know I know

[AkkiWare]

TJ is slowly becoming my favourite reviewer. Behind Derek of course. But right next to Eric. Keep reviewing guys you all do great.

[MrNin10dods]

Man, am I happy I finnaly got this cartridge in my collection, I found this game in my local game store and one of the co-workers got pissed that I had it because he hid it in the back of the store so later he could buy, I guess one of the other workers must've put it back, either way this game is awesome and now stands boldly in my N64 cartridge slot.

[VicGeorge2K6]

Quest 64 had good ideas at the time, but they were ruined by their execution. No wonder it didn't get a better name than Quest 64; there was really NOTHING about it that made it deserve better.

[jimmyelgringito]

@VicGeorge2K6 I did love the music, and it was one of the first RPGs i have ever played. It wasn't TOO bad, but after you get used to it, the game becomes TOO easy.

[LetsPlayMrMike]

The stars from mario party 5?!?!?!

[GarthMcCreery]

@LetsPlayMrMike they were in this first =P just saying

[AZWification]

@LetsPlayMrMike Actually those stars came from this game, then they appeared in MP5.

[pjuster2]

This game is so easy, I beat the whole game with only 10 HP

[KeybladeX31]

Star rod... Where the hell is Kirby!?!?

[Jeremy5028]

this is actually my favorite n64 game

[themangOMEGA]

REVIEW EARTHBOUND FOR THE SNES PLEASE! :D

[DaFunk14]

[themangOMEGA]

[crammage]

@themangOMEGA yes PLEASE!!!

[guysafari]

Favorite RPG Ever: Earthbound. Review that.

[gustyvedova]
