Paper Mario / Mario Story Japanese Packaging / Box Art Translation

Paper Mario / Mario Story (8.11.00)

Being developed under the working title "Super Mario RPG 2" at one point, Nintendo smoothly pivoted into their own style after losing Square as co-developers. Going in the opposite direction from Super Mario RPG, here Nintendo embraced 2D graphics on a primarily 3D system.

"Paper Mario" sets off on a new (RPG) adventure!!

Mario and his allies, flapping around like paper, unravel a 3D world in this fun filled RPG! In a new Mario World fusing both action and role-playing, Mario goes on a big, new adventure! Both the Star Spirits and Princess Peach have been abducted by Koopa, so it's off to rescue them.
