With new allies, areas, and paper power-ups, the game is a sequel to the original in every way imaginable—bigger, better, bolder. It will likely always be my favorite RPG. # Acquisition My parents bought a used copy for my from Blockbuster as a kid. When we took it home and I tried to play it, the disc did not work. One return later and I had a *new* copy of *The Thousand-Year Door*. # Memories Another game with infinite memories attached to it. Countless files with bifurcated chunks of 100% completion—one did the Pit of 100 Trials, another completed Zess T.'s cookbook, and another has a scary amount of badges and BP. I love this game in its entirety. The charm is unparalleled. The cast is unforgettable to me. A true blue sequel in all the right ways. This game is etched into my brain. I do fondly remember playing at the Target GameCube kiosk multiple times. The demo took place at the start of Hooktail's Castle and Mario could turn into a paper airplane. I was obsessed with it. # Related Posts - [[S1E3 - Paper Mario - The Thousand-Year Door]] - [[Chapter Select Season 1 is Paper Mario]] - [[Why Thousand-Year Door Got the Remake it Deserved]] - [[The Thousand-Year Door Remake is Shaping Up Beautifully]] - [[Paper Mario - The Thousand-Year Door Returns]] - [[Interview - Paper Mario’s development team lays it all out – VGC]] - [[Paper Mario - The Origami King Announced, Out in Two Months]] - [[Streaming Paper Mario - The Thousand-Year Door – Hero Mode]] - [[Thursday Night Stream – Finishing Paper Mario - TTYD – Hero Mode]] - [[Eon's GCHD MK-II Review — Unlocking the GameCube's Full Potential]] - [[The Legend of Zelda - Breath of the Wild Preview]] - [[Spirits Mode Revealed for Super Smash Bros.
