Super Paper price cut


Paper Mario might not be our favorite franchise, but it's definitely a key staple in Nintendo's repertoire. If you don't have the Wii's Super Paper Mario, then, you might want to consider getting it -- especially since Amazon dropped it's price by $10. As per usual, this Amazon price cut is without rhyme or reason (it may be permanent, it may not be), so we recommend taking advantage of it while you still can should this deal interest you.

We can imagine, though, that your plate of Nintendo games might be pretty full from some recent releases and upcoming titles.

NoE finally doing something about busted Super Paper Mario

So, it's been a whole two months since Nintendo of Europe acknowledged that a special glitch existed in the PAL version of Super Paper Mario and what have they done about it? Bupkis, that's what. Today, however, changes things as the European arm of the seven-headed hydra that is Nintendo has offered a fix for the issue.

Details on getting a new, glitch-free disc are finally revealed, as they would like you to either send them an email at NintendoServiceCentre [at] codestorm [dawt] co [dawt] uk or hit them up via the telephone at 0870-6060-247. In doing so, they promise to rush you a new disc as soon as they can, however it isn't said how long that will take, exactly.

Going to get your new disc?

'Zero Punctuation' covers Super Paper Mario, gives us lulz


If you've been around the internets, you might have heard of a fellow named Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw. If not, we can assure you that you're missing out.

For those of you who haven't had the pleasure of experiencing Mr. Croshaw, let us explain. Every week he does a video game review for The Escapist aptly titled "Zero Punctuation," since he never seems to take a breath between words and sentences.

So, why did we wait so long to bring this joy to you? Well, because "Yahtzee" did his first review of a Wii game, huzzah! That's right, folks, we bring to you a "Yahtzee" review of Super Paper Mario. Even when he's being downright mean (er, all the time), we have to love him because he makes us laugh in the process.

Now that we've built up this video so much that it won't meet your expectations (oops), watch away! But fair warning: Mr. Croshaw's potty mouth and vulgarities make this video slightly NSFW.

Europe gets special Glitch Edition of Super Paper Mario

Nintendo of Europe released a statement today acknowledging the existence of a game-freezing bug in the European release of Super Paper Mario. If you only play games for the excitement of seeing them fail, you're in luck. Everyone else: read where and how it happens, so you can avoid it.

The offending bug occurs in Chapter 2-2. A character named Mimi will speak to you and send you on your way. Before the next time you meet her, you should be able to find a key. If you speak to her again without first picking up the key, the game registers its disapproval with you. In other words, it freezes. This only occurs when playing the game in UK English, German, or Spanish.

Nintendo will have information soon about how to get a replacement copy, so you'll be able to talk to Mimi whenever you please. Until then, you know, don't do that.
