why does this dude only have 1k sub's?
I was actually thinking that lol
Thank you man! I'm glad to have any audience that watches!
@@WithoutTheLaw Thank you man, appreciate the support!
@@BoringBrandon1 Thank you dude!
The generation after us will be like what game series is this dad/mom sit down I must tell a legendary story to thy
Man the ttyd graphics still hold up so well to this day.
Literally! They look so nice
It aged so nicely
Except for the Tree level, mainly the tree itself
All I’m sayin is that STICKER STAR IS THE BEST jsp
@@bowerboi1145 what does jsp mean?
I can’t express how much I love TTYD. It’s easily one of my top 3 favorite games of all time. It’s one of those games where you feel fulfilled yet a bit sad when you complete your journey, truly one that can’t be forgotten.
I never played TTYD and I can’t wait for the remake. Less than two months to go!
I was expecting some left field ranking. But sometimes the most obvious answer is the right one.
Yeah I just ranked them however much I enjoyed it, thanks for the comment!
"Thinnest series out there"
Someone forgot about the Game & Watch games
Wellll have you measured them both to see which is thinner?
Wow, I think you described so perfectly the reason why the original Paper Mario was so mind blowing, the point about classic Mario characters having different roles, as well as the combat system which allows having a lot of fun with strategy but is also much simpler than that of most RPGs... Also, your ordering is exactly the same as mine, and Paper Mario TTYD is possibly my favorite game of all time... I really wish I could erase my memory of it and be able to experience it again as in the first time.
It's a shame that your channel seems to have very poor interaction compared to your subscriber count, this is genuine quality content that is on par with other Nintendo CZcamsrs like Marc Lovallo or AntDude or Nathaniel Bandy
Well thank you bro glad you think so. I'm just trying to grow as a channel right now while I'm still small just takes time I guess, I'm always trying to improve my video quality. I'm just trying to get more people to notice my channel at this point
@@InfiniteBits now you’re at 67k bro, hope you hit 100k this year because you deserve it!
I love that the rankings are going exactly how I thought they will xD. Can we have some love for the superstar saga Mario RPG games? They're all a ton of fun.
The first one was great fun. It was on the hard side though.
@@aspiknf I loved the difficulty of the first one. In fact, I thought the games that came after it (sans Bowser’s Inside Story) were a bit too much on the easy side (albeit still fun).
Super paper mario is my absolute favorite paper mario game because of the nostalgia. I use to play it all the time with my pop pop when i was like 4 or 5 it was amazing
*OTK has no partners*
Bobby: am i a joke to you? I died to save the day!
xd
He wasn't a really a partner
@@Gaspe19 yeah but it was still something interesting.
@@leyh9 better than nothing yes but not a partner.
Hes not a real partner. He is just a generic bob omb. He doesn't even have a real name. Bobby is not his name.
@@samuelG009 That's kinda his point. It makes sense that he doesn't come back after the rock scene because he's a mass-produced Bob-omb. He didn't really think of himself as special and tried to make the most of the short time he had, but his outlook changes once he realizes he was special to Mario and Olivia.
Just found your channel a couple weeks ago and I have to tell you: thank you so much, you're just the best, you quickly became my favorite youtuber, please please keep up the awesome work you make
Your too nice man, I appreciate you watching. There is no plans on me stopping, loving making videos! Thank you!
Finding your channel was like stumbling upon hidden treasure on an island in the vast expansive sea that is youtube. Your ranking order was exactly the same as mine (and PP TTYD is my all time favorite game) and the Star Wars analogy was absolutely spot on. I even sensed you would bring up SW specifically when when you started saying it was comparable to something. Maybe it was the Force at work.. anyway, keep up the good work! Subscribed!
Hahaha. thank you dude! Awesome to hear!
@@InfiniteBits Am I the only one (on this channel, I'm sure there are several other places where the Prequel Trilogy is defended against the Sequel Trilogy) who sees so much good in the prequels (maybe even more than the originals that despite its flaws, I enjoy)?
Color Splash had good writing, more unique characters, and then most memorable moments from the more recent games. Loved getting the Orange star.
I agree
Its just my fav that a Amazing game
Hard to believe the original Paper Mario is over 20 years old. I got it when it first came out, and it has been my absolute favorite game ever since. Makes me feel old lol.
I love your content. Puts a smile on my face. 😁 I watched this one from beginning to end and agreed with everything. I loved the outro of you flipping out of the world 🤣
My list
1) Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door
2) Super Paper Mario
3) Paper Mario/Mario Story
4) The Origami King
5) Color Splash
6) Sticker Star
My thoughts exactly
Origami King is my first paper mario game and I love it to bits. I guess that it might not hold up as well compared to the other games in the series, but I feel like it’s good enough to introduce people to the series at least.
Origami King is a pretty good game, it just pales in comparison to the first 3 games.
I love the music in the game
It's my favorite. Love it to death. It feels like a wholly unique yet equally charming experience to TTYD and SPM. And the og, I'm sorry, but it's just worse than TTYD imo. Still good, but rather play origami king any day of the week.
It’s the only paper Mario game I can play 😞
Although my parents do I have wii and I can potentially buy super paper Mario but I just got the ps5 and I only have 2 games for it
I can’t express how much I love Color Splash has. It’s one of my top favorite Paper Mario games of all time. It’s one of those games where you feel bit sad when it endet and.
I want them to make a direct sequel to TTYD because it was that good. I LOVED the battle system with the whole stage setup, the ability to influence the audience to get free items and recharge your Star Powers, the dynamic stage that could fall apart and deal damage to Mario or his enemies if you used certain attacks, and the ability to upgrade your stage over time, going from Rising Star, to B-List Star, to A-List Star, and Superstar. It was perfect, and there's not much I would change about... except maybe give the player the ability to purposefully damage or manipulate parts of the stage to aid you in battle. Like turning off the lights on Mario's side of the stage so that enemy attacks miss, knocking down parts of the stage to damage enemies, or repairing damage to the stage to keep Mario from taking extra damage. Stuff like that.
Story-wise, I would love to see the Shadow Queen make a return. Shadow Peach's design is just so fricking cool, and I think it would be awesome if she somehow survived the final battle and came back as the main antagonist, conquering the Mushroom Kingdom and slowly regaining her powers over the course of the game.
Imagine going back to Toad Town from the first game, only it's slowly being drained of life as the Shadow Queen regenerates; the Toads are all turned into zombies as the corruption spreads, making them hostile to Mario and party. Think of what happened to King Jingaling in _Banjo-Tooie_ after Grunty drained his life force.
The Star Wars analogy is genius
Thank you man, glad you thought so
@@InfiniteBits I wouldn't say it was genius, but it was logical and correct :-)
Oh man you absolutely won my subscription when you started the comparisons with the Star wars movies now even though I love the prequel trilogy but boy I could totally get it and that was really cool and I think this is a very cool channel!
You deserve more subs you put so much effort in to these videos. I really like this list, but in my top 6 super paper mario is number 2 and 64 is 3, because in my opinion super had more to offer than 64 and because of nostalgia.
Glad you like them! Thanks
6. SS
5. CS
4. TOK
3. PM
2. TTYD
1. SPM
Nice list too, a lot of similar choices. I watch your yt channel and saw your list as well. Good stuff. Thanks for the comment man!
Infinite Bits Infinite Bits glad you enjoy the content! I really enjoyed this video and was surprised you have less than 2k subs. You’re channel will grow in no time!
@@GameDomain Thanks, I hope so. For now I'm just focused on making my videos the best quality they can be
FINALLY! Someone else likes Super Paper Mario most! At least I'm probably not the only person that has it at my favorite at all time game. Why does it have to be so controversial?
CatGamer666 I mean, it is the best paper mario, so... 🤷♂️
Funny thing about your Star Wars parallel, Super Paper Mario and Return of the Jedi are both far and away my favorites, and both are less popular with people who are into the whole franchise, but both have the best cry parts, and thus are my favorite.
That Star Wars comparison shall not go unnoticed
Thank you good sir!
Paper mario 64 and Paper mario thousand years door will always have a special place in my big heart. They are my childhood forever ❤❤❤❤❤
Dude. As a Star Wars fan and Paper Mario fan, you nailed literally everything! Well done!
Sticker Star is special to me. I can’t explain it but it was my childhood. I love the music visuals and the puzzles. So it’s my second favorite behind the original
Well it was my first so I liked it a lot then I tried the original and I loved it then I did color and I’m like this is worse. Then I did super And I was disappointed but it was #2 for me I loved the story after that I tried 1000 year it was great but I still liked the original Paper Mario it almost tied with super I’ve never tried Oragami but I’m guessing I’d put it 4th right above sticker or 5th considering it was my first one as I still enjoy sticker even though it’s trash compared to the first 3
This is about right, every paper mario fan has bias to their first game.
I have a bias to color splash for example
same
Yeah the newer games are good for me mainly because of nostalgia
My first Paper Mario and y love it
Dude you deserve more subs, definitely gonna subscribe. Your content is entertaining!
Thank you man, that is fantastic to hear!
Okay except for this one (just saw it), I fully agree finally haha. I will say I think this is most people’s general ranking, but there’s a reason for that. Great vid as always!
My list would go:
6) Sticker Star
5) Color Splash
4) Origami King
3) 64
2) The Thousand Year Door
1) Super
Why Super being the best?
1) Story
2) Music
3) Multiple Characters who had different moves
4) You could play as Bowser, not sure if Super was made before Bowser’s Inside Story tho
5) The stakes the game had
I can see why. that game was awesome
Love games where Bowser is on Mario's side for a change. Although he hates Mario and only helps out for his own selfish reasons (like not being able to take over the world if he doesn't help Mario stop someone else from doing it first), it's still cool.
You know it and it has my favorite PM/Mario Character, Count Bleck!
Agree with your list but as much as I like Super, the gameplay was mid
The first Mario RPG to have a playable Bowser was Super Mario RPG on SNES
Star Wars analogy was a spot on comparison. Surprised I never thought of that
Totally agree with this list. TYD has soooo much nostalgia and a phenomenal story line it’s hard to beat. It also is not necessarily an easy game, I played and beat it 10+ times and improved my skills each time with different strategies. Something that could have been talked about was the strategy of changing your level ups between the 3 options. I once only level upped my badge points, was completely weak yet bad so many badges to work with. Anywho, great list!
Awesome vid, loved it 👍
What music was playing at the beginning of the thousand year door segment?
It's the paper Mario ttyd title theme
Alright this video needs to get 75 likes, have to have a Mario Kart ranking
Haha, thank you man
Amazingly underrated channel, I hope you blow up soon
THOUSAND YEAR DOOR is the best. I just played it again on my emulator and ITS SO GOOD. The battle mechanic is fun. The story and writing and plot ARE ACTUALLY clever and funny. It is in my top games of all time.
The Star Wars analogy is so apt I can't believe I never thought of it.
ngl this ranking is really well made also if my favorite paper mario is super paper mario!
6. Sticker Star
5. Colour Splash
4. Origami King
3. Paper Mario
2. Super Paper Mario
1. Thousand Year Door
My order is
6) SS
5) CS (does some stuff worse than SS though)
4) TOK
3) PM64
2) SPM
1) TTYD
Nice list as well man
@@InfiniteBits thank you sir!
you can hate anything about sickter star, but the concept behind the use of stickers and these things was great. if the battles had some useful rewards, the battlesystem would been really good.
thousand year door needs a remaster on the switch
Wish Granted! (except it is a remake)
“There are no partners” proceeds to show footage from world 1 and prologue without showing worlds 2, 3, 4, and 5, and Olivia.
I mean oragami king had like semi partners that did attack in battle
Ya that's fair, I would actually consider them half partners too. I just said in the video they didn't have them because they were nothing like the classic partners and didn't have much depth in using them
Great work man
I've never played any of the Paper Mario games and I predicted the order they would be ranked in before watching the video haha. Maybe I should play one someday though.
where is the origami king ranking..?
“We need to talk a bit about something more serious..… like colors” 😂😂😂
I gotta say, I love your ranking. I've played them all. And Truthfully I believe the OG paper Mario is the best. TTYD is very good as well. There is just no nostalgia. It would have been better if it introduced more Easter eggs or previous cameos. All in all, love the content
Color Splash is so underrated. The way the map and levels work like when you get a star and move on to a new level. And levels like violet passage, where you have to hit markers to earn points and pass, and the parallel universes in the island levels. The boss battles also require thinking and are more fun then in other games in my opinion. But the games pinnacle is anything after the blue star. All of the secondary colored paint stars have amazingly put together levels, like tangerino grill and sunset express. In fact, sunset express is my favorite game level ever. Though it does lack characters and character development, it has very good humor and probably the best script with the ai. I would rank it
1. TTYD
2. Super Paper Mario
3. Color Splash
4. Paper Mario
5. Origami King
6. Sticker Star
I feel bad when oragami king is my 2nd favorite paper Mario game. Everyone seems to utterly despise it and I get sad
That's fair, well why do you like Origami King compared to TTYD for example?
Infinite Bits The writing and puzzle solving of oragami king aspects really appeal to me, along with the suprisingly great characters and boss battles. Idk I just like it
@@pheonixpidgey5294 yes it was really fun and when you thought you seen all of the game they throw a whole bunch of interesting stuff .
Every level was just another big surprise, the battling is necessary (and in my opinion really fun and creative), because coins go in and out with a snap.
And the people who you meet on your journey were just do fantastically done (old and new) and I loved them all.
And well this is one of the few games that broke me with sadness, especially the end when the journey was over, because I really wanted it to continue 😅
I’m on a quest to play every Paper Mario game. The first one I’ve played and enjoyed to heck and back is Origami King (I know, late to the party), and I’ll be getting Sticker Star, too. Didnt get Color Splash but watched a full playthrough of it. I will also be buying Super some time in the future.
@@pheonixpidgey5294 yes
7:54 missed opportunity to say "Now this is an Avengers level threat"
I've played almost every game of the saga (except SS and CS) and i have to say...going back to TTYD after ToK is trully an experience.
13:26 Yeah... but dw ı'm not angry.... -screams in prequel fan
:(
@@InfiniteBits ;-;
The prequels were good...
Dimitri Smith Revenge of the Sith was good. TPM and AOTC had sections that were good but as a whole just can’t compare with the rest. I’m not even going to bring up my opinions on the sequels good or bad because I don’t want to start WWIII in the comment section.
@@jordandwiggins1026 I thought episodes 1 and 2 were decent. Hey, they were at least better than what Disney decided to give us.
Okay, while I may have not played the other paper Mario games, I did have both Bowser’s inside story, and Sticker star, and I think I enjoyed both games more than I would have because one was a turn-based rpg and the other was a turn-based resource manager. One had Battle mechanics that built on itself over the course of the game, challenging yet memorizable attack patterns, and a pretty good story to go along with it. The other had challenging puzzles. that as a child who was considered gifted, loved to solve, a multitude of nooks and crannies of the game that I wanted to explore, and a beautiful art style that caught and kept my attention. Again, I have not played the other Paper Mario games, but as a kid, if this game was any different I would have probably had a lot less fun considering how both of these games would’ve been too similar to each other to enjoy.
My favorite is Sticker Star and I'm not ashamed. I love the game.
Nice video and so far I love Origami King it's hard to say if I like it better than Super Paper Mario but I still love it also Origami King does have original characters and I kinda like the battles but anyway I enjoyed this video
Yeah that's fair enough, thank you man!
@@InfiniteBits of course I also can't wait to see your ranking in all the Mario Kart games
@@sbyrd1495 Yeah It's going to be a good video! It's might take a little bit of time before it comes out because there is a lot of editing involved so there is going to be a few videos before that one
Great video!!
Thank you
Paper Mario on n64 was such an amazing game. Thousand year door was just as good if not better. Definitely went downhill after those masterpieces
Just started this vid and I can already see this man is gonna pick ttyd as number 1
sticker star is my fav but thats only because It was my first and holds a special place in my heart.
As a fan of Star Wars and Paper Mario I have to say, you nailed it!
Thanks man!
Hey i like origami king nintendo spend some time on designing the origami characters
I love the Star Wars comparison - very spot on
Just a suggestion, but have you ever considered ranking the Mario & Luigi games?
Haven't played any of them lol
@@InfiniteBits OK, fair enough :)
I love color splash, I played it a ton when I was younger and I really liked the simplicity and the dialogue. Obviously now that I’m older and looking at it without nostalgia as a factor I can see it’s flaws but I think that if it wasn’t tied to dumpster fire of sticker star so closely then I think it could be a pretty charming stand alone game. I will say that it’s not for everyone though.
Super Paper Mario is my favourite game because it’s a 2D & 3D platformer game with such fun mechanics, you can read enemy’s, 4 characters to play as.
at first i thought you were a popular youtuber who, for some reason, never heard of up until that point.
I feel like Color Splash had alot of potential, but alot of tweeking would have to be made in order for it to be a smash hit.
It has amazing writing and some cool mechanics. If it wasnt held back from the mechanics left over from Sticker Star, and instead took mechanics from the first 3, and came out on the Wii or Switch instead, i think it wouldve been great
Great video bro ! My list is exactly the same. New subscriber here !!
I grew up with sticker star and enjoyed it
The Star Wars comparison was bang on
5. Sticker Star
4. Color Splash
3. Paper Mario
2. Super Paper Mario
1. Thousand Year Door
Haven't finished Origami King yet but it will probably end up between 4 and 3
How was it?
@@EvTheBadConlanger Between 4 and 3
I feel like too many people are modests about this kind of thing. Everyone be saying that older games are fantastic but the newer ones are just 'trash.' The only thing I agree with is that sticker star was the absolute WORST.
My favorite paper mario game is origami king, I love the new combat style, I like how its freeroam rather than levels, It is PACKED with story, theres emotion, and every boss is creative in its own way (I also like that they used essentials for arts and crafts which fits the paper theme, not being too crazy and random like from the old paper mario games) The stuff you can do with the 1000 fold arms is so fun. Theres even extra challenges you can do for 100% completion. Truly the greatest paper mario of all time.
Another thing is that I appreciate that they use the classic mario characters rather then these fantasy characters that I wouldnt suspect to be in mario if they were shown to me. I like instead of battling against bowser and his minions, you team up to take down the folded soldiers. I truly believe that origami king should be at the top of the list. Best one so far imo.
Origami King does have partners, tho only temporary they are still partners
Yeah I mean they technically had "partners" but like you said there temporary, you can't control them and in some sections you don't have any partners. Its not even close to the old partners thats what I was getting at.
I’m binge watching your videos
Bro just took the widely accepted opinion and made it a video
0:51 Honestly, the funniest part is that Sticker Star's situation got WORSE as time went on, because then Color Splash came along & fixed a lot of major issues of Sticker Star. Is it still my 2nd least favorite game in the series? Yes. But I still consider it as a C-tier game, unlike the Z-tier Sticker Star.
3:26 No, those still existed, they just made Things more on your natural path, removed a LOT of the excess Things from Sticker Star, made them auto-convert into cards, & didn't make them require their own page in terms of storage.
10:14 That's something I love about games like Metal Gear Rising, where they dodge the pitfall of number scaling by having the damage done all in raw percentages. You took a hit? You lost 1.2% of your health. Made it very easy to understand how many of each attack you could take before you died.
Wow, I didn't expect us to agree 6/6 on where the games stack. Personally, I feel like purely ranking the games in comparison to each other is a tad unfair, because while Color Splash & Origami King are 5th & 4th for us, to me they're still C-tier & B-tier games respectively, which is fine on their own.
We need a new ranking for SS. X is too generous. How about _____, so new fans will never know if it’s existence.
Yes a new Video
lol thanks for all the comments bro
As a Star Wars fan, I’m not pissed off, cause you didn’t mention the new trilogy LOL
Oh ya we don't talk about the new trilogy on this channel....
That’s what I’m talking about!
6:26 Man THERE ARE PARTNERS. Sure they don't help in battle but they do have character, they have personalities and somewhat unique designs.
AND THIS GAME HAS CHARACTERS, HERE'S A LIST
Mario
Luigi
Peach
Bowser
Olly
Olivia
Craftsman Toad
Colored pencils
Rubber Band
Hole Punch
Tape
Scissors
Paper hand thingy
Sapppy the tree
Other trees that are alive
Bowser Jr
Kamek
And that's just a few
My rankings:
6. Origami King
5. Color Splash
4. Sticker Star
3. Super Paper Mario
2. Paper Mario
1. The Thousand Year Door
If I made any Paper mario ranking, it would be in the exact same order, he perfected this list!
"Wow........this guy knows too much about me" Dude your list is as based as it can be.Everyone expected the exact same list........even me and my favorite is Super Paper Mario which is horribly underrated...........it deserves MUCH more attention
Habaneros is my favourite music theory
Ah solid choice, very good theory indeed
Color Splash gets undeserved hatrid, it was one of my favorite childhood games back in the WiiU :(
Future ranks: Mario kart games, Mario party games, Mario and Luigi games.
Interesting ideas man... I think you'll be happy during tomorrows video
My Rankings
1 TTYD (somehow one of the best Mario games of all time)
2 Orgami King
3 Super Paper Mario
4 Paper Mario
5 Color Splash
6 Sticker Star (everything except for the battles and stickers are absolutely amazing especially the music so I still like this game alot)
This was a well made video but there's no way origami king is better than color splash
Thank you man and fair enough, to each their own.
@@InfiniteBits also how did you do the spm demensional flip thing?
@@Flyingboy25 I made that effect in after effects. Mainly using a few 3D layers and a lot of masks. Kinda of hard to explain in text
@@InfiniteBits ah yeah wacky layer stuff
Good to hear that his top three paper Mario games are all playable on a Wii
Oh damn, your videos are… actually pretty good, how do you only have 1K subs?
(Also this is my personal ranking)
6: Sticker Star
5: Color Splash
4: Origami King
3: 64
2: Super
1: Thousand Year Door
Thank you man, well that's awesome to hear!
My opinion
PM: 8/10
PM TTYD: 9/10
SPM: 8.5/10
PM SS: 5.5/10
PM CS: 7.5/10
PM TOK: 8/10
I’m a prequel trilogy fan, ironically, I don’t mind sticker star and color splash, funny
Aye! I love the prequels too
The sequels have given me a new appreciation for the prequels. Besides, everyone underrates the prequels because they unfairly compare them to the original trilogy.
Super paper Mario was my childhood my absolute favorite game
Love the Star Wars analogy, but tbh Revenge of the Sith is the best Star Wars to me so the analogy falls apart there
No experience, *partners*,.....
Bobby, Explorer Toad, Kamek, Bowser Jr., Bowser folded up: *cries in a corner*
Exactly. I actually enjoyed the partners in Origami King more than I enjoyed the ones in TTYD or 64. Some of those partners I'd only use when I needed their ability for a puzzle or something, then get my favorite back out lol.
Now do every mario and luigi game if you have all of them
I'm considering it, I eventually want to do all the different series of Mario games
I think they should
You had us in the first half of number four not gonna lie.
