This feels like a solid first step from Intelligent Systems to finally find a new groove for the franchise. Hopefully the team continues to iterate on the design and deliver a follow-up that finally mixes that classic Paper Mario tone and feel with quality gameplay that fans love. It can, and arguably should, be different from the original games, but it needs to be more than this.","2024-12-02T11:34:37.010895-05:00",{"id":381,"logo":394,"name":395,"slug":396,"tags":340,"bluesky":397,"twitter":395,"youtube":398,"facebook":395,"mastodon":19,"muckrack":19,"claimed_at":19,"description":19,"website_url":399,"score_format":74,"average_score":321,"default_timezone":48,"last_review_date":19,"stats_updated_at":49,"headquarters_city":19,"news_editor_email":19,"platforms_covered":19,"claimed_by_user_id":19,"reviews_this_month":17,"active_authors_count":17,"headquarters_country":19,"reviews_editor_email":19,"editor_in_chief_email":400,"published_authors_count":17,"published_reviews_count":17},"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FDualshockers-logo.jpg","DualShockers","dualshockers","dualshockers.bsky.social","Dualshockers","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.dualshockers.com"," editorial@dualshockers.com",{"id":402,"game_id":5,"outlet_id":403,"author":404,"original_score":260,"normalized_score":139,"review_url":411,"review_date":390,"summary":412,"created_at":413,"updated_at":413,"author_id":405,"last_edited_at":264,"outlet":414},28719,29,{"id":405,"bio":19,"name":406,"avg_score":407,"outlet_id":19,"created_at":408,"profile_id":19,"updated_at":409,"claim_token":19,"article_count":410,"claimed_by_user_id":19},3046,"Pramath",79.22131147540983,"2024-12-05T09:02:25.231789-05:00","2026-07-30T16:09:44.011511-04:00",122,"https:\u002F\u002Fgamingbolt.com\u002Fpaper-mario-the-origami-king-review-pulp-fiction","Paper Mario may have shed its RPG trappings fully by this point, but that doesn't stop The Origami King from being one of the best and most memorable outings in the series' long history.","2024-12-05T09:33:27.026022-05:00",{"id":403,"logo":415,"name":416,"slug":417,"tags":340,"bluesky":19,"twitter":418,"youtube":419,"facebook":420,"mastodon":19,"muckrack":19,"claimed_at":19,"description":421,"website_url":422,"score_format":74,"average_score":321,"default_timezone":48,"last_review_date":19,"stats_updated_at":49,"headquarters_city":19,"news_editor_email":19,"platforms_covered":19,"claimed_by_user_id":19,"reviews_this_month":17,"active_authors_count":17,"headquarters_country":19,"reviews_editor_email":19,"editor_in_chief_email":423,"published_authors_count":17,"published_reviews_count":17},"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FGaming%20Bolt%20Logo.png","GamingBolt","gamingbolt","GamingBoltTweet","GamingBoltLive","gamingbolt.official","We are one of the most frequently updated sources of gaming news on the internet.
