So why does a paint pot let you cut things?

Good question, you'd think he'd paint platforms for you if anything.

>>345253014

The bosses are also made up of phases, Morton doesn't bring out the Fire Mallet until he took enough damage. The guy playing it messed up and it meant he had to fight two more Shyguys and knocking away the pedestal again.

So you have to progress through the battle before you can counter the bosses with their weakness.

You didn't have to lower the bosses HP in those cases. You just waited a few turns and use the thing. If you had to get rid of half of Gooper Bloopers HP before you could counter the poison it would be a much tougher fight.

So you have to not only collect the cards and save them but you need to get paint for them too.

You have to weaken the boss enough to use the thing and doing that is a puzzle in itself. That in itself better than just trading blows with incredibly weak bosses(TTYD) using the exact same attack every turn.
>>
>>345256327
You never had to use the same attack back then.
Now you're extremely limited by the cards and paint amounts.
It's better than in SS, as there is 2 parts to the puzzle this time, but better is not good.

You didn't have to but you had no reason not to spam the most damaging attack every turn against the bosses. By the end of chapter 3 Power Lift + Power Bounce breaks every remaining boss.

It wasn't instantaneous. For years, it was just another classic Mario game. You'd place it alongside the first and World, with only two being the black sheep.

It was critically acclaimed, was advertised in a theatrical film, got its own cartoon series, was the third best-selling game after the original Mario and Duck Hunt, which were usually a bundle, and is the highest-grossing non-bundled home video game.
Not to mention it introduced a ton of the elements that would carry over to World and future Mario games. 3 was huge at the time. It's the easiest to go back to if they need nostalgic bait for new entries.

I don't disagree. However again that's grinding in Sticker Star. You can trivialize any JRPG if you grind enough. TTYD like I said is like that by default and is easier to break while having even weaker bosses.

Face it Sticker Star is better than TTYD in some regards and this is one of them.

Meh.
It doesn't look like an all around terrible game coated with good music and graphics like sticker star was, but I don't want to buy this game.

I really want some colorful characters and story like what we've been seeing in the first three games.
If I can get badges combinations back, that's be great too. That shit was super neat.
When I hear Paper Mario, that's what I think about.
That's what I want to play.

I'm not interested in visiting uninteresting locations, meeting banal old characters I've already seen in New Super Mario Bros plenty enough and having toned down RPG elements, even if it's well balanced and flows well.

The game not being terrible sounds more like bad news than good news if you ask me. It means it'll probably do well.

I don't mind returning power-ups, but when they're brought back to be the primary theme of a game and get slapped onto all enemies, it's pretty stupid.
Mario 3 wasn't completely focused on the Super Leaf. Every level in SMW didn't have a Yoshi.

Think about it like this, you fight him a little bit prior to that flame hammer making your HP below max but not exactly low either. If you're playing the game blind you don't know how much HP he takes away from you when his Fire Hammer comes out & what Thing item to use so you're instantly fucked. It's kind of a situation where you're forced to know what happens afterwards or else you're punished. People can be split about whether or not that's alright but I personally dislike it, I can understand doing a lot of damage but not enough to kill you in 1 hit. Also it discourages you from battling the boss with out the puzzle Thing card which plenty disliked about Sticker Star with some even ignoring the Thing item all together in the game (which now they can't really even attempt to do without using a HP item every turn).

No. Kersti just says it was better to use a Thing sticker. You can still battle a boss normally, except in one that I can't remember.

Are you seriously saying TTYD is hard? How is the game hard, when the badges make the game unbalanced, none of the Crystal Stars required for you to do "super hard star power move action inputs", and the Stylish moves don't make any difference to the battles, except gather more Star Points to repeteadly use the Crystal Stars? What was there to git gud, except maybe the Pit of the Trials, but only if you don't grind, and don't use the Supernova move?

>Kersti just says it was better to use a Thing sticker.

And insults you for not using it. Nearly forced is correct.

If you wanna beat the boss in 2 turns? Yes. It's hard. TTYD is objectively harder then shitter star.

Yes anon. It's July 2016. You're saying something that came out 14 months ago means the system is currently doing well.

Star Fox failed.

#FE failed.

Nothing is hitting it big on the system, and the NX is coming in less times than it takes to conceive and birth a baby. Chances are, Color Splash isn't gonna be selling millions.

And insults you for not using it. Nearly forced is correct.
There's no such thing as "nearly forced". Once something is forced, it's forced. Nearly forced means it's forced, but also is not. That doesn't work.

And reforcing it again, SS doesn't force the Thing sticker in bosses, and that's it. This is a fact, because it happens in the game.

>If you wanna beat the boss in 2 turns? Yes. It's hard.

Why are you inventing handicapped "challenges"? Any game can be better "challenged" if you handicap yourself, and this is not the exception.

TTYD is easy in its normal difficulty. Attack, block to receive minimal damage/counterattack while not receiving damage for predictable enemy attacks, repeat.

>Also, please don't use Kirby for your shitposting
What? I'm just argumenting about why do I disagree in your opinion of TTYD being hard. I didn't post a cropped porn, I didn't use any buzzwords, I didn't act like a dumb frogposter, I didn't even called out of you for something, or anything that's related to low or troll quality material. Is disagreeing someone now is considered shitposting?

If your best selling game on a system in a year is under a million, that's terrible. Street Fighter underperformed.

I mean are you implying Nintendo is a small company or something? Like comparing them to EA is unfair? Last I checked Pokemon Go is a massive sensation.

Here you are though, trying to say with a straight face, that the Wii U's tiny sales numbers are acceptable.

Why are you so defensive? Nintendo is doing well right now, but the Wii U is dying, and no one is really buying for it.

Yes anon, and it's not last year anymore. Time passes. It's a terrible thing.

The Wii U is on its last legs with another system coming out. It's expected sales will slow, and they have. You said these games sold four million last year. What about this year?

10 months ago. Not particularly recent. It's a holiday '15ish release.

You're making the argument that four million sales last year is good. Yeah, I'll agree. What's come out this year that's even close?

I'm really surprised at how defensive you are. What is there to be so rabid about? The Wii U will be gone in under a year. It's expected this should happen.

Both were released in 2015.

Nothing in 2016 has hit over a million, and the biggest game left is Color Splash.

Once you factor in development and marketing, it's not an unfair number.

Nintendo doesn't produce indie stuff where hundreds of thousands of sales are considered a success. Breath of the Wild needs to hit two million, for instance. That's double what I'm saying.
>>
>>345273674
Depends on the install base and game

Almost 10% for a fighting game is alright

I expect to see a sequel
>>
>>345273994
Honestly what's truly bad about the Koopalings is that they were already used in two Mario & Luigi games including the most recent one which is a crossover with Paper Mario. They're going to probably be some of the only new character introduced to the Paper Mario universe and we've basically already seen them in it.
>>
>>345274192
You're very funny my friend. Me remembering something wrong, which I corrected myself over, doesn't change anything that I've said.

Something released 14 months ago is not recent, no matter how you spin it.

I'll repeat myself again. Nothing in 2016 has even hit a fraction of what 2015 did on the Wii U.
>>
>>345274242

Best news I've heard about this game yet. My favorite aspect of the old Paper Mario games was talking to your partner and getting extra flavor text in every single area of the game.

Hopefully, but the conversation at hand is people talking about how Splatoon and Mario Maker sold over 4 million. That's four times as much as those games have yet to even potentially reach.

It's because the Wii U is a system on the tail end of its lifespan. I don't see why this is such a contentious conversation point.

This still makes me angry though. The implication is that only Miyamoto approved games can introduce new characters, otherwise you have to recycle. I've also noticed they almost never use enemies from the Galaxy games.

And that's still a holiday 2015 release. Arguably a little before it, even.

We're past the half way point into 2016 and there's been no breakout hit for the Wii U, and it's had its chances. Star Fox Zero, namely. The best opportunity of all things is Color Splash, but considering the negative attention it's been getting, who knows how it'll do?

Personally I think it'll probably do over a million, but disappoint compared to games in the rest of the franchise.
