If they actually made an RPG ala TTYD out of it,changed the artstyle back to the E3 beta renderings and completely overhauled the game to essentially what Sticker Star was supposed to be before Miyamoto stepped in,then yes ofc,bring it on. But I don't think that's ever going to happen. Better finally make a good sequel that lives up to TTYD.

I even bought an extra copy of the game while I was here, so I’m doing my part! I think that this game will have legs too. It’ll sell well now, and I foresee it selling well around the holiday season too. Here’s hoping this bodes well for the series’ future!

my only doubt about legs is a new system. TTYD remake will have legs... until the next console starts taking off (and assuming no cross compatibility with the switch). It is just that time where the vibe has started: remakes getting the spotlight, first party support reducing, rumors of a new system floating in the air for a while now... To put it another way, it didnt matter how good or bad the luigi's mansion 1 remake was when it was released for the 3ds in the middle of the initial switch boom.

Something very much worth bringing up is that the TTYD remake likely only cost a fraction of what Origami King did to make. Remaking a game like this let's you save tons of time and resources as many aspects of game development you can just flat out skip. You don't need to design levels, environments, characters or systems, those were all done 20 years ago. Remaking assets is much easier too since you can use the original as a reference. They reused Origami King's engine for TTYD Remake, so they likely reused many other things from OK like lightning, loading, and much of the backend code. Even if both games sell similar numbers, TTYD will be significantly more profitable and have higher margins.

You mention that remakes normally don't sell that well, but I wonder if these two Mario RPG remakes are different. One thing that Nintendo did marketing-wise is not actually describing either game as remakes, it's not Paper Mario The Thousand-Year Door HD or Super Mario RPG Remastered, they're named like they are new games. I wonder if this has any effect on sales, because as much as the people following these games know they are remakes, the average kid looking to get a game for Christmas, or the parent buying the game (unless they grew up with them) wouldn't have much of any indication before buying either game that they're remakes. Compare that to Metroid Prime Remastered or Skyward Sword HD, it's right in the title. With only a few exceptions, most of the time Nintendo makes it known in some form or another right on the box when they've done a port or remake, so the fact that they didn't for these two makes me wonder if the sales trends are affected in any way.

But there is also another factor to consider: regardless of whether or not the game is labeled as a remake/remaster, the game itself doesnt hide that fact once you start. "Nostalgic tunes" badge is not in any way hidden beyond the "who needs shops" mentality, and is nominally priced (practically free). Even if this is the first you hear of the game when you buy it, one look at the nostalgic tunes badge is enough to clue attentive players into the fact the game is a remake, and even the console for the original. From there comes the word of mouth factor, and in an internet age, the technicality of the marketing matters less than the way the fans credit the game, and outside of a very shallow surface level search for the game on curated online shopping platform of choice (nintendo eshop might be the most misleading, since the original isnt present), most will credit the game as a remake. So, in a completely blind scenario, a new fan will buy the game on its own merits, play a few hours and decide whether or not they like the game, during which time they will find the nostalgic tunes badge and come to a realization: "this is a remake". At that point, the fact of being a remake no longer matters or changes the way they enjoy the game, unless it only heightens the experience by letting them excuse some of their pain points as the game showing its age and the era in which it was first released.

@cullenlatham2366 as the original comment mentions briefly, the main demographic affected by the naming difference is parents and children, who are way less likely to be predisposed to information on the game or be an attentive player, and the main thing that matters is selling the game in the first place, and then living up to expectations.

@@limelad1 yeah, and that doesnt really change my point, either. What does marketing the game as a remake actually do to benefit a title? Parents likely have at least a passing inkling about whether or not they've bought the game for their kids before, and the fact it is about a 20 year gap between original release and remake means it is unlikely any kid in question will have played it before. From there, the point remains: if the player enjoys the game in the first few hours, being a remake or not doesnt affect their overall view of the game. Parents who buy it on a whim dont care if it is a remake and likely would have gotten the game as a gift for their child either way, only complicated by the nitty gritty details of impulse buying and the psychology behind it. I wasnt arguing the value of the label of remake, i was arguing the fact that, in the exact context of TTYD, it can only possibly help someone already enjoying the game excuse the pain points in such a way as to keep the enjoyment instead of hampering it. If i want to argue the merits of labeling the game as a remake, the only con that immediately comes to mind is creating a barrier for entry in the form of creating expectations: "if it is a remake, the history of the game might not hold up as expected for a new generation gamer, so why bother?" hiding the fact of the remake reframes that same fallacy as an excuse to press onwards. "I enjoy the game, but the backtracking feels like a bit much (example taken as the most noteworthy complaint of the original). Oh, the game is a remake? then the backtracking is not necessarily a problem with the game, but the era in which it was first released. That means i can excuse the issue; even if it still exists, i wont let it ruin my fun."

@@alventuradelacruz522 I've been wondering why they decided to go with TTYD and not the obvious choice of Paper Mario 1, and at this point I legitimately think it's because Paper Mario 1 doesn't fit with the "paper" part of the "Paper Mario" branding that they have now. I mean think about it: outside of the vaguely pop-up book art style, what part of Paper Mario 1 actually hinges on the idea of Paper? Be it gameplay mechanics or even throwaway jokes. I can't remember a single instance, because the game was never intended to have that sort of gimmick. Compare this to TTYD where, yes, the paper gimmick is nowhere near the level you see in any of the modern three games, but it's pretty clear that they were leaning into it more. There are stickers/loose paper that you blow away with Flurrie, there's the 4 curses, tons of little visual gags etc. This is reflected even in the Japanese titles of the games, where Paper Mario 1 is just called "Mario Story" but TTYD is specifically called "Paper Mario RPG." It's a shame, because I think the first game could benefit from a remake not just for the visual upgrade, but also in hopes that they could retroactively add in some of the cool expansions on the formula that came about in TTYD, but I also worry that if they were to deliberately remake the game to fit with the current paper "branding" that we see now, it could end up being a detriment where they try to force it into places where didn't belong.

something that I see a lot of people mistakingly (yet understandably) assume is that: "more systems sold = higher sales for games." this is of course theoretically true, but much like how hardware often sells in a bell curve (peaking somewhere around the middle), software does too. There's stronger game buying momentum earlier on in a system's life because most of the game releases are fresh and new, and people are more engaged with their system. Almost NEVER does a same system sequel match the sales of the predecessor (look at Mario Party Superstars to Super Mario Party, Fire Emblem Three Houses to Fire Emblem Engage, Super Mario Galaxy to Super Mario Galaxy 2, etc.) because most owners already got their fill with the first series outting on a system. The Nintendo Switch however has seen smaller gaps between these same system sequels than any other system EVER though, which is incredible (usually the sequels sell ~30-50%, but Switch is seeing closer to ~50-75%). That is yet another testament to just how monumental of a success the Switch has become. Why this relates to Paper Mario TTYD remake is that while we would all love to see it sell upwards 5, 7, or even 10 million units, considering that a Paper Mario game has already released on this system, AND that it's winding down in terms of game sales and system sales momentum, there are some unfortunate hurdles for this title to overcome. And yet, it's actually OUTSELLING Paper Mario OK so far, and because of the phenomenal word of mouth, might even have a shot at outselling the game altogether!! Now THAT would send the message loud and clear that people want traditional style Paper Mario!!

That tells you what type of game people want. Also I bet there are other factors for why SPM sold so high, for example the hype factor from TTYD. I personally thought it'll blow me away like TTYD did, only to find out it wasn't turn-based anymore and quickly sold it.

Even if this game leads to absolutely nothing in the future, this game has finally allowed me to put ttyd to rest. It is the definitive version of the game and I’m sure has provided others as well as myself closure to a bygone era. If this is the last we see of the golden formula, it has gone out with a bang.

One thing to keep in mind is Super Mario RPG still sold a ton in Japan compared to TTYD, but that's not the whole story. See the original SMRPG is considered a treasure amongst 90s Japanese gamers who grew up on the Super Famicom. A national treasure nearly, especially considering it being the Nintendo and Square collaboration of the century. It outsold FFXVI! Compare that to the original TTYD where it was on the Gamecube which infamously did not sell well worldwide including Japan. I think TTYD is still doing pretty decently despite those conditions but it is obvious that they clearly prefer one game over the other. Plus the original SMRPG never released in Europe. It did get a Virtual Console release worldwide but that's still a pretty low attach rate I'd imagine. TTYD being #1 in the UK definitely helps in that the original TTYD did release there, and I think is just a sign that we're in a good spot with Mario role-playing games for the first time since the 2000s. We just need M&L to come back. Edit: M&L came back... welp

One important factor to mention is that by the time Origami King released, about 61 million Switches were sold. That number has more than doubled since then which means more people have the ability to buy and play this game, so best case scenario is this game can be a much bigger hit (albeit probably not a 10 million seller, but would still be a hit nonetheless).

the next console was described as "the switch's next level" or something like that, which means it'll still be a switch, just better in every single way, it'll most likely be compatible with switch games too, the game also has the code to support 4K resolution (probably for gaming on TV in the next console), I bet there will be people buying switch games to play when they get the new console, I don't think it'll affect any sales from any switch game as you can always play it on the next console

Even if this sells the same amount as origami king I would still say that’s a huge success. The fact that this is a remake has to be factored in, so most people buying this game have already bought this once before. If it was an original paper Mario but in the same style I think it would outsell the others easily.

Actually, I'd wager most people who bought this version didn't buy the original, at least not a new copy.. remember, it came out 20 years ago, so a lot of people with disposable income today weren't even alive when the game originally came out, and those currently in their late twenties or early thirties might not have had the cash to buy the game back then since they were kids. Could've rented it and never bought a copy.

Soo heres my plan for a new Paper Mario game. Instead of shine sprites in boxes. Power Moons in boxes. Each give a skill point to put in your partners skill tree. Soo you can chose to hp or attack or learn a new ability in the order of your choice. 2 partners behind Mario instead of just 1. Partners have duo and trio attacks with Mario. 1 of the partner is a chain chomp princess waiting on top of a tower to save her. After Mario recruit her, she try to kiss him, mario is afraid and run away. Shes strong but cant attack far enemies because of her chain.

It says something that the post didn't list Color Splash's sales in Japan: 20,894 in its opening, 65,316 total over its lifetime in Japan, making it one of the worst-selling games in the series there. Small wonder Origami King took steps back towards the classics. And it made a difference, selling over five times as much in its opening as CS did. There's something to be said for "previous entry momentum"; TTYD sold better than PM64, no doubt thanks in part to the positive word-of-mouth PM64 would have gotten at the time, and SPM's numbers are probably thanks to the good rep TTYD had at the time of its release. SS' sales were quite impressive for the 3DS, and a lot of that is probably due to fans being curious about a new Paper Mario after 7 or so years. After SS disappointed a good portion of its player base, CS' sales were a disaster; players didn't want SS2. Origami King fared much better than CS, but still had the second-worst opening of any entry in the series. And now TTYDS is doing better than Origami King, almost as well as the original game at launch.

It's an odd design decision in this remake to not allow saving anywhere, and I only say that because Super Mario RPG's remake allowed us to save anywhere so I kind of expected that modernized design change to apply to Thousand Year Door's remake as well. It's not necessary by any means, but it wasn't necessary in Super Mario RPG either so... it's just an odd inconsistency is the thing. Still a wonderful remake with that aside. Now, I hope that with this done, we can get that Paper Mario 64 remake. Yes, I know that Paper Mario 64 is in the virtual console thingy, but so was Super Mario RPG and that didn't stop them.

There are a handful of points throughout Thousand Year Door where saving in the field could leave you in a tight spot with no way to backtrack to safety. I can see why they might have decided to keep the save points fixed so as to minimize the number of people who save somewhere that could get them in trouble. On the other hand, it is already possible to save right in front of the Chapter 3 boss, which locks you into that boss battle. That's arguably the hardest boss in the game, so it's debatable whether there's anywhere else in the game that could theoretically be worse than the existing lock-in save block.

@@faithgrins Super Mario RPG, and really any game with distinct "save points" also has numerous points where saving anywhere could get you stuck. The earlier Zelda games, that midway point where they allowed you to save anywhere, got around this by saving "to the nearest doorway" instead of right where you stand. In any case, this isn't a major problem I have or anything, and the game's entirely playable, it's just odd that Nintendo didn't seem to standardize expectations across the two projects.
