Maybe I just don't get it but this game was completely stupid to me. First of all the premise is so bad and unrelateable to the point of actually coming accross as weird. I think you have to be hard core Mario fan just to swallow this game. It seems like the game is more about the gimmicky features rather than the game itself. I guess it is kind of cool that Mario is paper thin via Parrapa the Rappa style graphics but overall these games just don't seem on par or even as evolved as the stuff Sony is putting out. Don't get me wrong some of my favorite games have been Nintendo games but Paper Mario is just below the bar.
mario's worst

HAVE NEVER HAD ANYTHING BUT GREAT LOVE FOR MARIO GAMES UNTIL PAPER MARIO 1000 DOORS WAS RELEASED=NOT GOING TO BORE ANYONE WITH ALL THE DETAILS OF MY DISLIKE OF THIS GAME=IF YOU ARE FOOLISH ENOUGH TO PURCHASE IT ( EVEN AT A DISCOUNTED PRICE) YOU WILL SOON SEE WHAT I MEAN=READ ALL THE HYPE AND THOSE GLOWING REMARKS MADE BY SOME AND THAT SOLD ME TO TRY IT=HORRIBLE MISTAKE=PAID 50 DOLLARS FOR THE GAME AND GOT A 20 DOLLAR TRADE IN ON AN OTHER GAME AT SLACKERS=PLAYED THE GAME FOR ABOUT AN HOUR BEFORE I HAD TO SHUT IT DOWN AND TAKE IT OUT OF THE CONSOLE= CAN'T BELIEVE THIS GAME BEING THAT BAD AFTER ALL THE GREAT MARIO GAMES OF THE PAST, BUT IT IS!

This was great the first time I read....er..played it...NOT! If you can't get enough of reading the paper, books, newspapers then now you can also READ a video game. That's right. Read instead of play. The graphics are TERRIBLE. If I wanted old school graphics I'd buy an old school game. Oh and if I wanted to read I'd buy a periodical not a game.
Nintendo is not making great games

NOTHING GOOD ABOUT THIS GAME. WHEN YOU BUY THIS GAME YOU'LL SAY WHATS THE WHOLE DIFFERENCE OF THIS GAME BACK IN THE 1980's? nINTENDO IS IN LAST PLACE. THERE GAME TITLES ARE SO MINAMAL. Xbox and PS2 ARE IN THE SAME LEUGE.

This game was sooo easy. We beat it the first day we got it. It was a big disapointment. I would rather be playing a different game. Don't buy it. Not worth the $$$$

I thought this game was going to be okay well i was wrong ' see im new to the mario rpg games now and now the game just got boring
Why did it get boring ?
Because its impossible to get passed chapter 7 section where mario has to walk on these blue panels to avoid being shocked ' I even asked how to do this but they said stay in the middle and thats what i did and still it did not work and they were not specific about it ' So i plan on selling this game to someone who is good at it
If you dont like hard difficult impossible games then this is not the game you want you ll just get annoyed and yell at the top of your lungs because you cant get passed nothing on here ' so the game is boring because i cant get passed chapter 7 and i give up on it
Other then that it could be impossible to also get passed chapter 8 especially i heard the final boss has 150 HP thats alot ' and totally impossible
So this is my opinion and feel free to flame me for it
Dont waste your money
Best seller, yeah right

When I played this game, it was so boring. Here are three reasons why:
1) It's hard to control the people.
2) Very hard for a 6 year old.
3) Just dumb.
So this is 3 reasons why this game is BAD!

All I have to say is this game is not for 'EVERYONE'!! you have to be able to READ to play! Last time I checked not everyone can read. I bought this for my 13 year old son...who has autisum. He can master just about every game I get him but he can't read. So, for him this game was not much fun. I ended up playing more than he did and I didn't even enjoy it.
Repetitive combat, WAY too much backtracking, and slow moving dialogue.

This game had potential, and artistically it's very well done, but it quickly becomes a chore to play:
- Repetitive combat: there are only a limited number of unique enemies, with much of the "variety" created by simply changing colors/stats of previous bad guys. There are a few combinations of attacks that defeat most enemies, so most of the battles are fought the same way.
- Uninspired level design: players are forced to walk back and forth across levels in order to complete quests, even though one time through a level would be plenty for many people. One level is comprised solely of battles, which are the most monotonous part of the game.
- Slow dialogue: the dialogue is often so slow as to be painful to click through. And I know it's only Mario, but even with low expectations the story leaves a lot to be desired.
- Frustrating badge system: Even if you only ever select badge point increases when leveling up, you will never have enough badge points to wear all the badges you want (not to mention the ones you don't care too much about).
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
