<div class="IPBDescription">"Mario Babblers" within. YES! COME LOOK!</div>So.. Super Paper Mario is an upcoming 2D(+3D) RPG'ish platformer for the Wii. People probably alread know this. However, what they might not know, is that there's 3 new videos from GDC.

<a href="http://www.gametrailers.com/player.php?type=mov&id=17689" target="_blank">Chapter 1-2 Gameplay</a>
<a href="http://www.gametrailers.com/player.php?type=mov&id=17697" target="_blank">Puzzle Solving Gameplay</a>

After seeing this I nearly immediatly go to wikipedia to see if there is a solid release date - sadly there's only for the US (which makes me scared it might get horribly delayed in the EU :/), Anyway, it's due to the 9th of April in the US. Then I read on powerups and whatnot in the game.. and found this..

8-BIT. MARIO. BABBLERS.

I rest my case.

    The advertisement loaded... but nothing else.

    So I'm resorting to YouTube, it's not turn-based anymore?

    no, it's mainly a platformer this time around. It has some RPG elements though, you'll get levels, HP and whatnot, there's also items - and the correctly timed super moves for MASSIVE DAMAGE!

    Plus, it takes the Paper Mario characters and whatnot.

    Super Paper Mario is indeed not paper mario 3, but I'm still very interested.

    I don't have to even watch these videos to know I'm getting it on release day.

    20% RPG and 80% platformer... could this be the next Faxanadu?
