Paper Mario: Color Splash releases today, though some of you may have been playing it for some time, and once again the issue arises: why isn't Color Splash a proper RPG like its non-Sticker Star predecessors? It's not an invalid question — it can be a perfectly good game for what it is, but it's hard to play those first two games and not want more of that — but the root problem is larger than that: Nintendo thinks people won't buy RPGs or strategy games unless they're tricked.
Following up a disappointing game in the final days of the Wii U was a tough job but somebody had to do it.
Super Paper Mario is by far my favorite. The sticker stuff they came out with after was a terrible way to go. Super has an amazing fun story with humor beyond any other mario game before it. I loved the platforming style WAY more than turn based mechanics that pause the games progress and make it much longer than needed. The sticker idea was the worst thing the series ever did. I bought a 3ds to play it and I wish I had never bought the console.

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.
Because the lovers of RPGs have moved onto other consoles by now?
