UMMM, Paper mario goodness, we knew it was coming but still,

i gotta get this right now, details for you on games released today...

Paper Mario (Nintendo 64, 1 player, 1,000 Wii Points): A spiritual successor to Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, this game is, frankly, fantastic. It combines some really solid RPG mechanics with visual panache. Consider it required downloading if you haven't been through it.

Balloon Fight (NES, 1-2 players, 500 Wii Points): Though it may not be as glitzy as Paper Mario, Balloon Fight is still undeniably a classic. The only question is if you'll be willing to part with five bucks for a game that was not only playable in Animal Crossing, but was also, at one point, stored on playing cards.

Silent Debuggers (TurboGrafx16, 1 player, 600 Wii Points): Hey, we warned you, please be nice, this has been a tough day. ... Oh, you're laughing now. That's great. Listen, maybe you're just rushing to judgment. We've embedded a gameplay video after the break, maybe you'll watch it and see that you were wrong all along. She's a totally radical first-person shooter, you'll see!

All great classics worth checking out.

agrees, paper mario is a must have for me

I never played Paper Mario on the 64. Is it worth getting?

Go and get it. RIGHT. NOW.

It was pure super-special-awesometacular awesomesauce.

YES IT IS WORTH IT. Repeat of what M@gic said.

Ok i may look into buying it after I check out how the game was online.

It was good. Now buy it!

Ok Ok i will. But what exactly was it? Like how do you attack enemies and stuff?

i cant wait till mario alstars comes out

Same as in other Paper Mario games. If you haven't, it's turn based, you have a small variety of moves, and if you make a certain motion and time it right, it does extra damage. You can also use items for healing and dealing extra damage.

The original PM is has more RPG elements then SPM. I'm not a huge rpg fan, I may check it out.
