Don’t worry though, we’re here to cut The Thousand-Year Door’s more confusing aspects down to size. The Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door doesn’t off up a ton of all-new content, but it does add a pair of tough post-game bosses for you to challenge yourself against. So, here’s how to face off against these bosses and a few tips on how to beat them. Note: […]
Ryujinx, one of the last remaining major Nintendo Switch emulators, is already able to run today's Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door remake at 60FPS. Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is out today for the Nintendo Switch, but those owning the Remake's ROM were already able to successfully run and play the game on PC through the Ryujinx Switch emulator. Not only that, but the emulator managed to run the game at 60FPS, whereas, on Nintendo's platform, the game is locked at 30FPS. In addition, the game runs in higher resolutions on PC than on the Switch. We've included a video […]

Don’t worry though, we’re here to cut The Thousand-Year Door’s more confusing aspects down to size. In order to kick off Chapter 4 of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, you’ll need to find a way to get to the creepy Twilight Town, which requires a few steps, including figuring out one of the more obtuse secrets in the game. But hey, don’t worry, we have […]

Don’t worry though, we’re here to cut The Thousand-Year Door’s more confusing aspects down to size. In order to kick off Chapter 3 of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, you’ll need to get yourself a blimp ticket to the floating island of Glitzville, but doing so is a little more complicated than getting to where you need to go for Chapter 1 or 2.

Don’t worry though, we’re here to cut The Thousand-Year Door’s more confusing aspects down to size. Unlike most recent entries in the series, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is a full-on RPG, with Mario gaining levels in a straightforward manner by earning Star Point XP by winning battles, but what about your various non-Mario party members? How do you improve their abilities? It isn’t immediately […]

Don’t worry though, we’re here to cut The Thousand-Year Door’s more confusing aspects down to size. The new Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door features a revamped, more richly-orchestrated soundtrack, but perhaps you prefer the Gamecube original’s more funky lo-fi sound? Well, worry not, you can switch between the two, but don’t go looking for a toggle in the options menu. No, that would be too […]
It seemed like we’d never see another game like Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. While there have been plenty of Paper Mario games over the past couple of decades, Nintendo has intentionally steered the series away from the RPG mechanics, original characters, and sharp-edged humor it was initially known for. As a result, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door has taken on a certain symbolic importance to some spurned fans even though it wasn’t a particularly big hit in its day. Needless to say, it came as a bit of a shock when Nintendo announced a full remake of the game […]
The soon-to-be-released Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door remake doesn't run at 60 frames per second like the original GameCube release, but it is likely due to the developer's choice to prioritize other things over frame rate and performance. Talking on X/Twitter, Abebe Tinari, director of Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon, provided some interesting insight that likely applies to the upcoming remake. For a long time, the Bayonetta Origins development team tried to get the game running at a stable 60 FPS but only achieved so in certain stages, while in others, it was impossible without reducing visual fidelity.

Nintendo and its fans usually get a long pretty well, with the Paper Mario franchise being an unusual bone of contention. For many years Nintendo has stubbornly attempted to dial down the quirky stories, unique characters, and RPG elements that defined early entries in the series, much to the chagrin of a particular cadre of fans. As perhaps the last true RPG in the series, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door has taken on a certain symbolic importance to those spurned fans even though it was never a particularly big hit, selling fewer than 2 million copies on Gamecube. After decades […]
