April 9, 2007 - So while it's far from the platforming/role-playing godsend that some Nintendo fans expected, Super Paper Mario still qualifies as a must-play for any Wii owner.

September 19, 2007 - Is it a new Wii must-have? I'm going with, perhaps. It uses the Wii tech so cleverly, remembering that simple is best, but letting it play in a way impossible on any other console.

April 9, 2007 - Super Paper Mario is a rock-solid entry into the Wii's expanding library of games. It's of a substantially higher quality than the majority of third-party games recently released and as such, it should appeal to virtually everyone who owns the console.

March 30, 2007 - You'll laugh when Luigi's "Brobot" comes down to wreak havoc on the team. Hell, you might even care about why the Purity Hearts can stop the Chaos Heart from usurping all that is. We sure did, annoyances be damned.

April 10, 2007 - If you've been waiting for the next epic Wii game, well, this is it. Super Paper Mario delivers in a multitude of ways with its unique take on perspectives, some devilish puzzles, and all the hopping and bopping you can handle.
Publication Quality: Mediocre

April 5, 2007 - You should buy this game for a number of reasons. It's a Mario game and for some that will be enough. It's also one part platformer and another part RPG, successfully dabbling in both genres.
