Why does Nintendo refuse to produce the Paper Mario game that so many fans want to see? Like literally: Why? This question honestly started to kind of haunt me. I ended up spending way too much time thinking about why Nintendo refuses to produce the Paper Mario game that so many people want to see, and I believe I finally found the answer, or at least I have a theory. So today, we are going to explore this question. We are going to take a look at a couple of Nintendo franchises and how they evolved , we will discuss a couple of brilliant design decisions that nintendo recently made as well as chatter about a couple of incredible dumb ones, we will find out how all of this is connected and why it is the reason for many of nintendo’s more recent design desasters. But most importantly of all, we are going to find out why the classic Paper Mario format had to die. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 00:00 - Intro 01:47 - The part of the video that actually is about Paper Mario. 06:31 - 380 moons for nothing. 11:58 - Progress everywhere but there. 18:25 - Losing Metroid. 22:53 - It was murder. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Link to Game Maker's Toolkit fantastic channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/McBacon1337 -------------------Credits for the Music-------------------------- Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga OST - Teehee Valley Paper Mario Origami King OST - Snif City Royal Hotel Paper Mario Origami King OST - Missile Launch Paper Mario Origami King OST - The Western Ends Paper Mario Origami King OST - The Elastic Entertainer Enters Super Mario Odyssey OST - Bonneton Super Mario Odyssey OST - Steam Garden Immortals: Fenyx Rising OST - Heart of the Hero The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time OST - Gerudo Valley The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time OST - Song of Storms ------Holfix https://www.youtube.com/holfix HolFix - Beyond The Kingdom https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CiGpsBLBX8 ------Kevin MacLeod "Adventure Meme" Kevin MacLeod incompetech.com Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ -------------------------------------------------------------------- Huge thanks to LongplayArchive for providing open game footage of: Metroid Prime, Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door, Metroid (NES), Pokemon Evee and Luigi’s Mansion. https://www.youtube.com/c/Longplayarchive/featured
