Exciting developments come with a tinge of disappointment as a charming diorama accompanies a special bundle of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, but only for residents of the United Kingdom.
Exclusive to the Nintendo Store UK, the Paper Mario remaster package includes a delightful buildable battle stage showcasing Mario and Goombella squaring off against an ensemble of foes, including Lord Crump, Koopa Troopa, Bob-omb, Goomba, and Chain Chomp.
Adding to the charm, an audience of Toads, Koopas, and Goombas spectates the showdown, making for an endearing display. Additionally, three rubber keychains are included as preorder incentives. However, details regarding any preorder bonuses in the US remain elusive.
Presently, this unique battle diorama is solely accessible through the Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door bundle in the UK.
In September, the announcement of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door for Switch sparked excitement among fans. Originally launched on Nintendo GameCube in 2004, the game is a cherished installment in the acclaimed RPG sub-series, marking the second entry in the illustrious Paper Mario franchise spanning six titles. The franchise’s most recent addition, Paper Mario: The Origami King, debuted on Switch in 2020.
Recently, Nintendo disclosed that Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door will hit shelves on May 23. The remastered RPG promises enhanced visuals, a reimagined soundtrack, and more, eliciting anticipation among enthusiasts. GameSpot offers a comprehensive Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door preorder guide to aid eager fans.
Notably, Nintendo appears to have altered its game release schedule, as evidenced by the Thursday launch of Paper Mario. This departure from the traditional Friday release pattern observed with first-party Switch titles is mirrored in upcoming releases such as Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD and Endless Ocean Luminous.
