Knew there wouldn't be partners. Chain Chomp was definitely beta.

It's an odd story, but hey it's Paper Mario. I think it's okay, but I'm glad it doesn't involve Peach so far.

Of course. At least the developers gave Peach a break this time.

They haven't completely, there was this picture of her on the sign with supposedly Kersti on her head.

We all know how this story is going to end out :
Story said:
On the day of the annual Sticker Fest, Bowser decides to pull a prank and scatters six Royal Stickers across the land. To retrieve these mysterious, magical stickers, which are now stuck onto Bowser and his underlings, Mario sets off on an adventure with Kersti, a sticker fairy, visiting prairies, deserts, forests, snowy mountains and volcanoes around the world.

While Mario heads of to collect the Royal Stickers, however, Bowser kidnaps Peach and Mario has to go and rescue her afterwards in yet another epic final showdown. :p

...oh, come on, we KNOW that's what Bowser's going to do... ::)
 
How would an online PM work? Lol

Eeh, typical anintendo making average blurb styled stories that hopefully don't imply the same level of effort in the game itself. ...it would be weird if Kersti was a sentient version of Peach's crown though...

Maybe Junior will usurp his father at some point for lulz... And to get Peach. Not a likely possibility, but who knows...

Even though the game's changed a lot, I'm still planning to get this one.
 
If I remember correctly, Kersti states that she came down to the Mushroom Kingdom with the Sticker Comet. If it's true, it came from one of the PAX demos.

And an update to the logo: Logo Changes for Paper Mario: Sticker Star

Huh.

Within a week, really?

*attempt to look for the date...
Wow - I don't know why I though it would be coming out after Christmas... (probably thanks to Luigi's Mansion : Dark Moon's release)

...hey! I know what to get my older brother for Christmas now since the Paper Mario series is one of his favorites! (as long as he doesn't buy it before then :p)

I'm sure a lot of people are aware of that, but it's on different systems. Lots of Mario to cover by then, we need to get ready.

I already pre-ordered Sticker Star last week along with Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, so I'm good. I'm going to get the game on release day, but for New Super Mario Bros. U, Nintendo Land, and Wii U, that's waiting until Christmas or later.

Nintendo sure knows when to release these kind of AAA games. If I remember correctly, they're the same weeks as last year for Super Mario 3D Land and Skyward Sword.

The following info comes from Nintendo Power...

- sprawled out across different worlds
- each have multiple levels within them
- this layout is more like a traditional Mario platformer
- World 1-3 has you trying to figure out a puzzle to get past a large waterspout in the shape of Bowser's head
- the end of the stage culminates in you receiving a comet piece

Multiple levels in the worlds, and that layout is like a traditional Mario plat-former.

It seems like at the end of each stage, you earn a piece of a comet to complete one of those six stickers.

EDIT: Story Details:

Go Nintendo said:
- story begins on the night of the Sticker Fest
- this is where the citizens come to witness the Sticker Comet fly by
- the Sticker Comet will actually make wishes come true
- Bowser decides to jump for the Sticker Comet to take it as his own
- in the process, Bowser breaks the Sticker Comet into pieces
- the pieces become scattered about the Mushroom Kingdom
- at the same time, a crown happens to fall on Bowser’s head
- this makes him more powerful
- he then decides to kidnap Princess Peach

I pre-ordered it on September 1st, so I don't have to worry about it running out of stock. I'm definitely gonna be spending the first couple of weeks playing it...trying to collect all the stickers I can. XD

Hopefully it's on PM and TTYD's level with gameplay. I just don't want this to feel like SPM. And I hope they have some complex puzzles in the game; I love puzzles so it'd be a great mix imo. I hope it provides a challenge.
