What are your thoughts on Paper Mario?

it might be in my top 10, though I have heavy nostalgia for it (iirc it was my first console RPG)

Paper Mario is really fun, but I think TTYD outclasses it in just about every way (list spoilers). Paper Mario was the prototype, and TTYD was the finished product (and somehow they've never been able to recapture the magic since. I didn't include Sticker Star because I didn't get far into it, but that thing would be near the bottom if I did. What happened to this series?). That being said, I do like how Paper Mario plays the story straight while just about every other Mario RPG mixes up the formula a bit by making Bowser an ally or by creating a different antagonist altogether. It's somehow unique by being the most formulaic...! The playable cast is simple but charming. The worlds are colorful (Shy Guy's Toy Box being the highlight), too.

And I'll give Paper Mario this: The final battle is one of my favorite moments in any Mario game. It's so good!
