• Gamers young and old will adore the refreshing appearance of this family-friendly game as they watch the scenery "unfold" as paper-thin, 2-D characters flip, flop and flutter their way through this storybook adventure.

• Paper Mario lets you journey through Forever Forest, blow through Gusty Gulch and make the ascent to Shooting Star Summit in a search for the seven Star Spirits and the powerful Star Rod.

• Players enter an animated pop-up book world that features all of Nintendo's classic characters traveling through the mystical realm of the Mushroom Kingdom.

• Players can get over 50 Action Badges by super-charging Mario in many different ways. Mario's new powered-up abilities include Mega Quake, Triple Dip and Super Jump Charge. You can mix and match badges and pin them on the plumber to create your own unique Super Mario to topple pesky foes.

• Seven all-new companion characters join Mario to offer assistance in new and mysterious ways. With their distinct attacks and abilities, Parakarry, Bombette, Goombario and others help players in their battles and travels.
