That said, I think some parts of Color Splash's gameplay are more fun than Super's. Super Paper Mario's gameplay is okay, but it isn't the highlight of the game. The gameplay and the way it intertwines with the story makes Super Paper Mario special, but on its own, the gameplay is pretty mediocre.
For Wii U on the Wii U, a GameFAQs message board topic titled "Super Paper Mario vs. Paper Mario: Color Splash". Paper Mario: Color Splash, a game that often finds itself at the center of debates among fans of the series, is a unique and colorful addition to the Paper Mario franchise.
In this review, I, Brighton Nelson, will deep dive into the elements that make Color Splash worth a playthrough. Paper Mario: Color Splash is an action-adventure, turn. This was my first Paper Mario game, and while I think the other ones I've played (Super Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Origami King) are better, I do still like Color Splash.
I have some annoyances with the game (mainly to do with the battle system) but otherwise, it's not a bad game. For Nintendo Switch on the Nintendo Switch, a GameFAQs message board topic titled "Paper Mario Colour Splash is a better game than Super Paper Mario". The Origami King gives off the appearance of checking those boxes, much like Paper Mario 64 did, much like The Thousand-Year Door did, much like Super Paper Mario did, and much like Color Splash did.
But the mostly bland, platform-focused Super Paper Mario and the sticker collect-a-thon of Paper Mario: Sticker Star sapped fan enthusiasm. Color Splash seems poised to put the series back on track. The core of Origami King is fundamentally different to Sticker Star and Color Splash, almost as much as Super is different from Sticker Star and TTYD is different from Super, and that's something I realize more and more whenever I talk about the modern trilogy of games.
Tonight we're splashing color, battling through quirky levels, and giving this underrated Paper Mario adventure the spotlight it deserves.
