It's not especially good at the start. The first chapter is dull enough that some people are inevitably going to give up on the game - and rightly so, as there's no reason to continue when you're thrust into the action at the start, but the action sucks. Now, it gets considerably better after that point, especially once you hit chapter three, but it's just sloppy design to have what is from what I've played so far the weakest part introduce the game.

It was pretty good. I still fail to see why they felt the need to make it a platformer, but it was a good platformer. It was fun, though, and that's all that matters.

Now they must redo this game RPG style. Then it would be muuuuuuch better.

What. No. That would ruin much of the charm of the level design without really adding anything.

I'm pissed.
I pre-ordered it from Amazon, but they fucked up something and won't even be able to ship it until the end of next week.

I was going to cancel and order it from somewhere else, but everywhere else was sold out.

Something's really throwing me off, though: the lack of a run button. I'll still eventually get it, though. ... Probably after Guitar Hero II, and after Ouendan, when I finally import it.

So that's about 3-6 weeks from now. Maybe even longer. I can wait.

You can run, but you need to beat the Pit of 100 Trials to achieve it. Yeah, by the time that happens you're more than halfway through the game anyway...

I was about to say something about Mario already running, but then I remembered it uses the control pad instead of the Nunchuck. It will be different, if I can just get it.

I don't mean to advertise, but as soon as Link scores enough hits, I'll be closer to playing...I'm eager, too.

I have now made three unsuccessful attempts at beating the Flopside pit.

Have you done the 6-1 100 man challenge? (Assuming you beat the game.)
I heard it was 30x harder than Flopside. Except you have to do Flopside 2x to fight the boss.

I like how the resurrected the first boss (but different form, and stronger) for the boss of pit of 100 trials. Shadoo looks pretty cool also.

It's almost harder than it, but then not because of one really important thing.

You can save.

Also, no matter how strong they are, one really strong thing is always easier than being surrounded on all sides by dark magikoopa.

I did eventually beat the flopside pit the first time 'round, though.

At first, I thought I would've preferred another RPG Paper Mario, but after playing this, i've decided that this is just as well. A RPG Paper Mario wouldn't hurt though. The one let-down for me is that you can't flip using other characters. I would've loved to be able to use Bowser more.

Well, after playing this for a while, and checking out some of the previous levels for random stuff, I discovered this.

It helps immensely. Pit of 100 trials is gonna be a cinch now.

I finally got this game along with our Wii on Wednesday, and it is an awesome game so far. I've just finished with chapter four, and the game has great plot twists.

Spoiler:
For example, Luigi helping the enemy? That's never happened before IIRC. Sure sure, he was brainwashed, but still.


Plus, few games make me LOL anymore. Super Paper Mario is one of them.

The first time, I made it to the boss of the flipside pit, and then on my third time attacking, I died because I got shot. (people who've made it to the boss will know what I'm talking about) I had about 720000 (or however many 0s there were) points, I don't remember what level that equates to, but I lost all of the progress anyway.

The second time, I beat it just fine, but I think that's because I played through half of the pit right after my defeat, and leveled up a bit, so I was at higher levels the second time I attepted the pit. I really like the reward, it's so convenient.

I've placed the final pure heart, but I don't want to beat the game just yet, so I'm just doing stuff. I'm currently trying to beat the flopside pit for the first time, but I stopped half way through (levelling up again).

No no no. Levelling up is a BAD thing. Once you get to where bowser's flame one-shots everything, there is no point in levelling up at all because all that it means is that the intervals between free full heals becomes longer. And that's a very bad thing when going for the pit.

Umm... my level-ups have been going at a pretty steady 80000 increments.
