We've condensed my entire playthrough of Super Paper Mario on my Twitch channel into one video for you guys. This one took a lot of work so please do consider leaving a like if you enjoy it. You should also send love to my editor Cloé through her channels here twitter.com/xashtaricx www.twitch.tv/ashtaric
I really like the idea of Mario and Luigi just sitting at home after going through all of this like "Soo... You're were the perfect Anti-Christ vessel that Dimentio sought after..." "I don't want to talk about it."
I love how this game's conflict was caused because Peach agreeing to marry Bowser is so inherently wrong it creates a paradox that threatens to destroy all dimensions.
Imagine if Mario Odyssey ended with the literal all consuming void killing everyone and forever destroying their immortal souls. Would be a bit of tone shift I feel, but maybe that’s just me
You play as Mario because he's the most useful You play as Bowser and Luigi because they're broken in battles You play as Peach because she's the only mentally sane one in cutscenes
to this day, Dimentio has one of my favorite teleportation effects in all media. There's just something very satisfying about it, especially for something going between realities rather than just across space. Also I love how the whole game you're seeing the villains meeting on little boxes suspended in the middle of this weird black void and when you get there you find out that the floor was like two inches out of frame the whole time.
Can we talk about how Count Bleck always refers to himself in the third person because he’s not really Count Bleck? Blumire puts on this facade of Count Bleck and always refers to the facade in the third person. That’s some quality subtle storytelling there.
The way I see it, due to reading the Dark Prognosticus, Bleck sees himself as a character in the story, and as a result narrates himself as if he is a character in a story
Two parents grieve for the loss of their only child, who they raised and loved despite knowing that she would likely have to leave them early. Luigi: OKIE DOKI
I love how this game wasn’t afraid to get dark, it also implied that our world was one of the worlds that would get destroyed and that is really intense for a Mario game. Also the amount of lore you can find in the post game is astonishing. Also the game just gets WEIRD
Mario & Luigi partners in time was a pretty dark game too. i don't remember any other game thats also this kind of dark except for this and the one i mentioned.
Wow, I never realised how dark this game was as a kid, considering the *onscreen murder-suicide, slavery to pay off an almost impossible debt, Mimi deciding to commit neck snap, mass enslavement and mind control using plants, a forbidden marriage, killing Satan and the literal heat death of the universe.*
Also walking through a post-apocalyptic world that YOU were too late to save? A world that you saw was brimming with history and people but gone in an instant? As you watch in the world’s last moments the people of that world lose hope and realize their imminent doom?

@@jazznayaa Well, in order for that to happen she has to get kidnapped by an ink version of Mario, get the REAL Mario in a bunch of legal trouble, and have to break news to Bowser Jr. that she isn't his mother.

@@loganw7101 When even the dimension between dimensions, the universe between universes, is destroyed, I doubt much else survived. Besides, as the tournament chapter shows us, universes can be destroyed separately, so who's to say it's not a continuous thing as they die off individually?
@@SimonWolfie how would they see her "girth" in that case? Is that a hidden power of Thudley, to see through clothing and view "girth" directly? Or did something happen to make it... apparent to them?
52:40 The reason Dimentio deals so little damage even though his attack is 256 times stronger is not because his original damage is so weak, but x256 causes the stats to overflow in computer language and return his attack to x1.
That would be a cool reference, but the game explains how Dimension D strengthens everyone inside it. Both Dimentio and the heroes become 256 times stronger, cancelling each other out. The dialogue explaining this appears after beating Dimentio for the first time, but the video cuts it out.
@@asdunlavey but still no one is actually stronger the stats still overflow so it could still have also been a reference and making still make sense to people who don't know computer language.
I remember being a little kid and playing this game and thinking Peach was a badass because she took no shit, fought through two layers of brainwashing, and blew up the laptop of a creepy dude who was flirting with her. We don’t see badass peach anymore.
A love story between a triangle butterfly and an edgy guy with a top hat, where the main antagonists are a buff scottish dude, a girl that is anywhere between 8 and 27, madam secretary, and the Joker. This is my favorite Mario game ever
As funny and insane of an idea of Mario saying "we have to keep moving" it's actually kinda a sad and solemn idea of Mario being a man who is not allowed to grieve and feel sadness, he can only keep moving forward, never to rest.
I’m surprised that after so many times Peach got kidnapped, Mario doesn’t live in her castle to keep her safe, lmao. Like, is he not paranoid every single day? Even Luigi shares a house with him I mean, they are brothers and he’s the only canonically related member of his family but, I’m pretty sure besides that, since Luigi has gotten kidnapped quite a few times as well, he feels safer knowing that he can see immediately him everyday.
Dimentio: “And so I arrive, like a sudden windstorm at a kindergarten picnic.” Bleck: “…” Nastasia: “dimentio what the fuck does that mean please speak normal, k?”
Dimetio: UNDERSTOOD I shall speak normally, like Jeff from accounting finally getting the opportunity for a big promotion, and not wanting to mess up and say something weird!
Luvbi: I must die in childhood as a sacrifice to protect the world knowing my life was built on lies and I never got to enjoy some of the true joys of youth. Luigi: Okey-dokey
Mario enters purgatory and is sent into hell time and time again to prevent a wedding between a princess and a roided turtle which would cause the heat death of the universe
Man imagine how much it feels like bullshit for Bowser, because the one person he genuinely likes in some cruel twist of the universe's whims will end the world if he ever gets her.
i honestly love Dimentio, he saves peach from being brainwashed because he needed all 4 heroes to enact the dark prognosticus, sends all 3 of the guys to the underwhere to fix the pure heart, makes luigi upset so they have a one on one to get him ready for the final fight, comes in after count bleck has his fight and they used the pure hearts on the weaker villain, hell, he even had a plan B incase his initial plan were to somehow fail, god Dimentio is amazing character design
This game just hits different. There are just too many things to mention in this game that you wouldn’t even expect from old school paper mario story telling. So many charming characters and moments, this game was and is still brilliant.
@@xanderkatt1391 so Mario is either Jesus or the holy spirit. Wait, overthere is heaven so Grambi is God, Jaydee is the Devil, and Luvbi is Jesus And Mario is the Holy Spirit
Man, games like this really make me wish Nintendo hadn’t decided to start limiting original characters for these games. Francis is hilarious, and Blumiere and Timpani’s story is so compelling, a storyline like this is so much more enthralling than “go stop the origami man and his *evil* stapler”
“If Luigi had a nickel for every time he unleashed an ancient evil, he’d have two nickels Which doesn’t sound like a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice”
I love hoe this story handles a prophecy. In other stories with a prophecy where "the hero is destined to defeat the evil" it kind of lowers the stakes a bit if said prophecy is treated as 100% true. But this story has two prophecies, one where good wins and one where evil wins. That way, it becomes a battle to make one prophecy true, and I think that's very cool.
I hadn't thought about that! That's a really nice way to handle prophecy-type plot points, reminds me a bit of how stuff like Steins;Gate (variable timelines with fixed events each) or the Thoth fights in Jojo (unavoidable predictions that are prone to misinterpretation) manages similar tropes of predestination to preserve tension
The Dark Prognosticus was the only "true" prophesy. It stated what *would* happen: the destruction of hope and everything else. The Light Prognosticus was created to *counteract* the DP, in a "What Could Happen, Hopefully* sort of way. *Hopefully* the events of the LP come to fruition. *hopefully* mario shows up. *hopefully* Mario and Co. Find the Pure Hearts and defeats the Chaos Heart.
@@spencercox7931 I thought that the way it worked was that these events have happened before and will happen again, but the light prognosis would eventually lose and the true prophecy would come to pass, with all worlds ending
MatPat: "AND HERE'S WHY MARIO IS A PSYCHO, SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE WILD SPECULATION!" (I like Game Theory overall, but sometimes Matthew Patthew goes overboard)
Me and my sister own both Mario galaxy(which we didn't finish unfortunately) and Paper Mario. It's fair to say that memories from 2008 me has made a comeback.
This game somehow feels like complete fan-fiction, but it isn't, and I love it. The story of Count Blumiere and Lady Timpani was really sweet, and Count Bleck's evil gang being friends was also really sweet. Peach and Bowser get some great character moments. And everything else is just pure memes. This game is the whole package. Thank you RT for showing me this lovely game
If you go back to Weird Lizard Guy's house than he will offer you the opportunity to buy a robot version of Tippi who knows she's not the original but also is programmed to think she's Tippi leading to the only character with both the rainbow text-box outline of a Pixi while having the text-box shape of the robot characters.
@@theawsomealexgames When you're buying Tippitron, (the name of the robot Tippi) she'll act confused about being called by that name and insist her name is just Tippi. But you can also scan yourself, a mechanic normally used to give you hints. Do this with Tippitron, and you get the only scan dialogue that the normal Tippi can't give you. Tippitron talks about how great of a hero you are for saving everything before saying "At least, I think that's what she would have said. . ." These two contradicting moments seems to imply that Tippitron has something of an identity crisis.
Super Paper Mario was definitely ahead of it’s time as it basically reflected on today Internet culture and Francis is a prime example of that reflection. Such an underrated classic.
Funfact: in german, count Bleck is called Graf (count) Knickwitz. His catchphrase is "Knickedicknack!" I dont know why, but its terrible and amazing at the same time.
And it's pronunciation is even more of a doozy because due to it's being German, it's not said like "Nicked-ick-nack" it's "kih-nick-eh-dick-nack" and it's really fast and when I first heard it in a German playthrough of the game I died laughing.
That sounds like the catchphrase of a character in a live-action sitcom. Like everyone is sitting on the couch and one of the characters open the door saying "Knickedicknack!"
Taking this game into account, had Bowser succeeded in marrying Peach in Oddysey, it would have brought about the end of reality. Mario probably doesn't even have a thing for Princess Peach, he just can't keep bringing home the bacon from his plumbing trade if all the pipes are destroyed in a massive cataclysm.
@@gerragotheallidile You're just being nitpicky. What makes the first three any more relevant than the others? (and more notably, Paper Jam specifically?)
@@sinteleon The first three games emphasize that the aesthetics is an art style rather than the reality of the world, where if you translate them to 3D storytelling, it still works - not so much for the later ones, as they are more like crafted world (ala Lego Movie) that doesn't seem to fit the Mario worldbuilding as well.
It isn't bad no. The only bad part is the tipi pointer because you never think to use it and the 3d time limit. Oh and pacing and backtracking But this game kinda is symptomatic of what came next. Generally great writing, awful awful gameplay Stickerstar colour splash and that new one are the biggest fall from grace ive seen in a game series and super paper Mario was a harsh slide
@@davidtowers1863 bruh, the gameplay in this game is super fun. It has really creative puzzles, fun platforming segments, and a high skill ceiling for pulling off cool stuff with different items. Just because it’s not an rpg like the first paper Mario or ttyd, doesn’t make the gameplay bad. This is personally my favorite paper Mario game.
It's really weird but Peachs character at the time flip-flopped between the standard damsel in distress and a smack-talking adventure queen wielding powerful magic (in Strikers she was just straight up a diva). Which makes her still being kidnapped to this day just confusing to me, she could easily kick Bowsers ass or just bully him out of his own castle. I honestly wish they'd bring that side of her back and show more of her actually ruling the kingdom.
1:12:25 This is probably the first time I’ve ever heard a character in a Mario game shout the word *”fuck”* at the top of their lungs and Mario is very shocked by this
In Thousand Year Door, right at the end of the game when Peach is possessed, you can just submit to her and get a game over. Mario just goes with it. Because it turns out, evil Peach is the spark their love life was missing.
This is the single most memorable game I've played. This was formative, and kicked off a lifelong love of games as a medium for telling beautiful stories. Just seeing a video about it in 2021 is making me tear up.
Same, man. I was a huge fan of TTYD, but I loved this game the moment I played it. It's incredible to see, now that I look back: My memories of this game are just as iconic. What a unique and special game. I'm so glad to see it get the respect it deserves.
Fun fact: there are certain Pixls where it’s possible to skip them using glitches, but the devs actually programmed another failsafe. If you manage to skip obtaining a Pixl, the game will add a text box saying “X heard about your adventures and joined your party.” And Slim is a skippable Pixl. The devs really wanted to make sure you had Slim in your party lol
20:05 “Have you ever had a dream that you, um, you had, your, you- you could, you’ll do, you- you wants, you, you could do so, you- you’ll do, you could- you, you want, you want them to do you so much you could do anything?”
If I had a nickel for every time Luigi became the embodiment of pure evil, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but It's weird that it happened twice, right?
I like to imagine Mario tried to go back to find Luigi and tried to convince Tippi to come with him but since he can't actually talk, she was like, "Ah yes of course. We must abandon the dead to venture forward," to fuck with him.
I remember having a talk with someone online once about which Nintendo characters would be which Avengers and Mario was Captain America and Luigi was the Winter Soldier because of this game.
1:57:10 Fun fact: in the US release, dimentio comments on Luigi’s moustache, calling it a ‘shag upon his lip’ instead of calling him a pushover. Due to the very different implications of that term in the UK, the line was replaced with the one you see here
The sheer amount of heart-wrenching scenes in this game. I’m not gonna spoil any of them just in case someone (somehow) managed not to know the full story but...
@@flinch2440 I am pretty sure you’d bleed out after at least chapter one though but that’s just my personal opinion. I don’t think I could take more than like 3 shots to the chest ngl
Well, 11 shots in his introduction...and then another when you meet the old man....and then another 5 in prologue part three Seventeen shots before you get control of Mario.
Fun fact: in the postgame Tippi actually never comes back. Instead, you can revisit Francis’ castle and buy a digi-butterfly replica of Tippi that performs her same job, in case you want to attempt the pit of 100 trials or something.
The worst part is that she’s programmed to think she’s the real Tippi, so if she ever thinks of her origin as a robot, she has a breakdown and freaks out.
@@TinaThePinkPhantomthat outright is not true. When you point at creatures, Tiptron will often say “at least, that’s probably how she would say it” or something along those lines
I really wish that they’d bring Chunks, Mimi, and Nastasia back since they were really great characters and even if they “can’t make new characters in paper Mario anymore” they were pre-established characters and so they can’t really retcon them out since they already existed. Nintendo, bring Bleck’s minions back
When you already live in a fantastical world of wonder, so your high moments are low quality squiggle people and that's what passes for hype. "Ohh, whoa, I can almost tell what you're supposed to look like. That'sa AWESOME."
The fact that in order to get Boomer to help you, you just have to have the same opinion as him on all of his questions is, unfortunately, decently accurate.
I mean, that conclusion goes both ways these days. Heck, both ways all of the days. It's how people are, people just only point it out when it's the "other" group while ignoring their own group doing it. Lost Generation, Baby Boomers, Boomers, Millennial, Z will. And many of those before and to be. So excuse me while I sit here hypocritically laughing about your statement.
If I had a nickel for every time Luigi tampered with the ancient evils and brought upon the end of the universe, I'd have 2 nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
Honestly, the reason why there's so much TTYD Nostalgia is that until fairly recently, the kids who had TTYD Nostalgia were old teens and young adults with widespread access to internet parlance and influence.
@@kikiretzorg1467 now we get the super paper mario nostalgists, since the ttyd ones are getting older, Man.. to think people are gonna be getting nostalgia about Mario oddysey someday, instead of Mario galaxy and such
No kidding, TTYD has the better gameplay if you prefer RPGs, but Super absolutely DESTROYS it in terms of story (and music. Seriously, Super's musis is really underrated). It adds so much more stuff to the basic "go find these medallions/pure hearts/crystal hearts/stars/triforce pieces/needles and save the world" and that ending broke me the first time... man, seriously fuck Blumiere's dad. He caused all of this just because he couldn't let go of his traditions and allow his son to be happy, and then he acts surprised when he turns away from him. And all the little stories that each of the worlds had... some were not much like the first worlds, some were just kind of funny with the 4th world (Seriously, Francis' "I love to complain on forums about games i've never played !" still holds true to this day), and some were just super dark (seriously, they went so far in the last world : Literal hell and Satan, River Twygz's bed which i'm surprised RT didn't show, Luvbi, a child, ceasing to exist while telling her adoptive parents that she still loved them). This game oozes charm (just like TTYD to be honest) and hits you in the feels quite often, while i only had a moment like that at Bombart's wife's last letter in TTYD.
i played both but spm stuck with me so much more still love ttyd to this day for gameplay and stuff and i started replaying it recently but spm for story and nostalgia
@@sharpack On the flipside, Wario is also TERRIBLE at managing his cash. He's also gone bankrupt (and is also the impetus for him to stop being lazy and get more money). Him having no money to even buy pizza is why he started a game development company to begin with (and we do know his games isn't the most popular, since the most popular is the one starring Pyoro.)
I mean, Bowser continuously wages wars on peaceful kingdoms and kills thousands of innocent mushroom people for the sake of his conquest, and Luigi is LITERALLY the Antichrist, so...

52:40 The reason Dimentio deals so little damage even though his attack is 256 times stronger is not because his original damage is so weak, but x256 causes the stats to overflow in computer language and return his attack to x1.
That would be a cool reference, but the game explains how Dimension D strengthens everyone inside it. Both Dimentio and the heroes become 256 times stronger, cancelling each other out. The dialogue explaining this appears after beating Dimentio for the first time, but the video cuts it out.

I’m surprised that after so many times Peach got kidnapped, Mario doesn’t live in her castle to keep her safe, lmao. Like, is he not paranoid every single day? Even Luigi shares a house with him I mean, they are brothers and he’s the only canonically related member of his family but, I’m pretty sure besides that, since Luigi has gotten kidnapped quite a few times as well, he feels safer knowing that he can see immediately him everyday.
Maybe Mario is exhausted from constant adventuring so him not being at Peach’s beck and call is him not caring because saving Peach is his job.
That's not Mario saying that, its Tippi. Mario never speaks throughout the entire game

I love hoe this story handles a prophecy. In other stories with a prophecy where "the hero is destined to defeat the evil" it kind of lowers the stakes a bit if said prophecy is treated as 100% true. But this story has two prophecies, one where good wins and one where evil wins. That way, it becomes a battle to make one prophecy true, and I think that's very cool.
thats a really good point!
I hadn't thought about that! That's a really nice way to handle prophecy-type plot points, reminds me a bit of how stuff like Steins;Gate (variable timelines with fixed events each) or the Thoth fights in Jojo (unavoidable predictions that are prone to misinterpretation) manages similar tropes of predestination to preserve tension
The Dark Prognosticus was the only "true" prophesy. It stated what *would* happen: the destruction of hope and everything else.
The Light Prognosticus was created to *counteract* the DP, in a "What Could Happen, Hopefully* sort of way. *Hopefully* the events of the LP come to fruition. *hopefully* mario shows up. *hopefully* Mario and Co. Find the Pure Hearts and defeats the Chaos Heart.
and yeah, this IS a pretty cool way to counteract the tension-lowering part of having a prophecy-based storyline.

If you go back to Weird Lizard Guy's house than he will offer you the opportunity to buy a robot version of Tippi who knows she's not the original but also is programmed to think she's Tippi leading to the only character with both the rainbow text-box outline of a Pixi while having the text-box shape of the robot characters.
I think I remember that on very certain things when scanned, she even has unique dialogue about getting confused on who they are
@@theawsomealexgames When you're buying Tippitron, (the name of the robot Tippi) she'll act confused about being called by that name and insist her name is just Tippi.
But you can also scan yourself, a mechanic normally used to give you hints. Do this with Tippitron, and you get the only scan dialogue that the normal Tippi can't give you. Tippitron talks about how great of a hero you are for saving everything before saying "At least, I think that's what she would have said. . ."
These two contradicting moments seems to imply that Tippitron has something of an identity crisis.
this sounds trippi

Many people have nostalgia for 1000 year door, but this game was my own childhood, and I have no regrets
Honestly, the reason why there's so much TTYD Nostalgia is that until fairly recently, the kids who had TTYD Nostalgia were old teens and young adults with widespread access to internet parlance and influence.
@@kikiretzorg1467 now we get the super paper mario nostalgists, since the ttyd ones are getting older, Man.. to think people are gonna be getting nostalgia about Mario oddysey someday, instead of Mario galaxy and such
No kidding, TTYD has the better gameplay if you prefer RPGs, but Super absolutely DESTROYS it in terms of story (and music. Seriously, Super's musis is really underrated). It adds so much more stuff to the basic "go find these medallions/pure hearts/crystal hearts/stars/triforce pieces/needles and save the world" and that ending broke me the first time... man, seriously fuck Blumiere's dad. He caused all of this just because he couldn't let go of his traditions and allow his son to be happy, and then he acts surprised when he turns away from him.
And all the little stories that each of the worlds had... some were not much like the first worlds, some were just kind of funny with the 4th world (Seriously, Francis' "I love to complain on forums about games i've never played !" still holds true to this day), and some were just super dark (seriously, they went so far in the last world : Literal hell and Satan, River Twygz's bed which i'm surprised RT didn't show, Luvbi, a child, ceasing to exist while telling her adoptive parents that she still loved them).
This game oozes charm (just like TTYD to be honest) and hits you in the feels quite often, while i only had a moment like that at Bombart's wife's last letter in TTYD.
i played both but spm stuck with me so much more
still love ttyd to this day for gameplay and stuff and i started replaying it recently
but spm for story and nostalgia
"What is it with Luigi, like, invoking ancient evil? It happened in tennis as well" is a brilliant out-of-context quote.
Luigi OWNS that house bro. You know how much dough this man makes ghost busting?
Im pretty sure luigi has more money then any royalty in the mario series, Hell he probably runs the property market or something
@@nerosoul2506 Not more money than Wario, though. Wario has a LOT of cash from his adventuring days and his game developing company. (canon)
@@sharpack On the flipside, Wario is also TERRIBLE at managing his cash. He's also gone bankrupt (and is also the impetus for him to stop being lazy and get more money). Him having no money to even buy pizza is why he started a game development company to begin with (and we do know his games isn't the most popular, since the most popular is the one starring Pyoro.)
One of the most underrated mario games
Absolutely, deadass one of the best
Can't wait till we get to the light novel dating simulator
This game combines a lot of elements from different Mario games and makes them work wonderfully.
It really needs a rerelease someday.
@@emanuelepolloni4002 remaster it or port it to Switch or PC one day.
Hell, it's probably the best mario game
Thousand Year door is the only competition
Super Paper Mario: A Love Story
By..... COUNT BLECK
funny how peach was the only one that went to heaven
Mario has sinned.
Mario pulled a Scorpion and returned from hell
I mean, Bowser continuously wages wars on peaceful kingdoms and kills thousands of innocent mushroom people for the sake of his conquest, and Luigi is LITERALLY the Antichrist, so...
I love the games that portray Bowser as a massive dork
Well, Luigi's last name _is_ Mario
does that make mario's full name Mario Mario
@@gothiiispiderz Yes. Yes it does.
@@l0sts0ul72 perfect
If Luigi's last name is Mario then whats Mario's full name
Jaydes and Grambi; depressed that their daughter sacrificed herself to save the world: take this, she would have wanted you to have this
Luigi; completely ruining the moment: okie dokie
"you cannot enter heaven or hell"
aah, the things said before entering chapter 7...
I love how this one game is significantly stranger and weirder than all the others in the series.
