GameXplain: "Our video review of Paper Mario: Sticker Star finds out how the game stacks up to Mario's previous RPG adventures. Is it as good as Paper Mario 64 or Thousand Year Door on GameCube, or does it fall short of even the Wii's Super Paper Mario? Is the new combat system a win, or does the lack of partners and leveling-up affect it? All this and more in our full video review!"
Phil writes, "There's little that hurts a gamer more than hearing that a sequel to one of their favorite games is coming out, it releases, and it turns out to be a dud. It's happened to the best of us. It's like having the rug pulled out from under you when a sequel you've been hyping based off of love for its predecessor does less than satisfy when it finally launches. Sometimes it's due to the formula being changed too much and not for the better. Other times it's because the game is missing what made the original so good.
Whatever the reasons may be, SPC is back with a look at six more disappointing video game sequels that failed to deliver or failed to satisfy for one reason or another."
The Punished Backlog's David Silbert writes:
"Nintendo is widely known for its deep, eclectic well of beloved franchises. From The Legend of Zelda to Wrecking Crew, there’s no library in gaming as rich in history or as popular among fans.
2019 is shaping up to be a banner year for Nintendo, with representatives from Mario, Fire Emblem, Zelda, and Pokémon all gracing the Switch platform before the year’s end. At the same time, there are still plenty of Nintendo franchises that lie dormant this generation, in desperate need of the “Switch treatment.”
While there are plenty of legendary series worthy of a revival, here are six in particular I would absolutely kill to see on Switch in the near future."
A new Golden Sun and Mother would be great, but I wish I wasn't the only one that wants a new StarTropics.
Paper Mario Sticker Star didn't need to be "The Thousand-Year Door 2." It just needed to be "good."
Holy crap
I...wasn't expecting that. Though I honestly was a little worried when I heard there was no experience points. At that point, why would you ever fight in an RPG-like game? I'm still interested enough to give it a rent though.
wow. that's pretty bad
This is just a review guys. Regardless, best RPG Mario game is Legend of The Seven Stars (and it'll always be apparently).
That use of the same footage for 8 minutes really made this hard to watch.
Also that's some pretty disappointing news
