Like spoilers? Have we got a treat for you! Advanced Media Network has posted a video showing the first 30 minutes of gameplay in Super Paper Mario. Spoil the opening sequence, spoil the plot, and spoil about ten minutes of actual gameplay. While you're at it, leave the milk out of the fridge and let it spoil too!The game looks great, however, and the scriptwriting is as punchy as previous Paper Mario games. It's also a comfort to hear familiar series sound effects make a return. Go ahead, jump the gun and check out the video. When the game is released in a few days, you'll get to sit through it all over again!

First 30 min goes like this....
Mario has to rescue peach...
Mario jumps on turtles...
Mario finds coins...
Mario goes in tunnel...
Repeat 1000x
Sorry for spoiling it guys.

I do want this game though.

There is no Peach-saving in this game.

I have the first 30 minutes of my sister's wedding on video. WANNA SEE?
Ken @ Apr 3rd 2007 2:44PM
Oh shi! Thanks alot Jack, you ruined it for me!!
Or not, but still...
Only a week till I'll be playing it all day and all night. It being my Wii.
Take that as you will.

Is this anything like The Thousand Year Door? Man, that game was a snore-fest... 5/10 gg
The 1st Paper Mario was somewhat better, but still too easy.. 6.8/10
What about this one?
that guy @ Apr 3rd 2007 3:03PM
Meh, already have the game, thanks :)

"There is no Peach-saving in this game."
That's what I like to hear. I've been saving that bitch for how many years and she still keeps her nookie to herself? By this point, all the effort gone through for her ass, you best believe the mushroom kingdom is long overdue for a bang train...
Now let's see you people keep your food down!

So sheppy is irritated by the winning comic 2 weeks ago (backdoor acheivement unlocked), but then goes off with one of the most juvenile comments I've seen on this site. C'mon sheppy, you're better than that.
In other news, looks like I'll be using my Wii again after a 2+ month layoff.

@ #2 Jack
Every game has a pattern. Halo, Sonic, GTA, Final Fantasy, Tekken, you name it, it's all the same type of button mashing in the end.

The whole opening bit is the princess is kidnapped, so Mario goes over to Bowser's and is like "What's up bitch where's my girl?" and he's like "I didn't even kidnap her yet dog, I was just about to!" and this crazy wizard has already kidnapped her and used mind control on her and makes her marry Bowser and opens a portal to another dimension through their magical unholy wedlock. We've known this for over a month. Jack of No Trades is a filthy bum. He likes aliens more than kidnappings, and hey, I can't blame him. Let's see what happens when the next hot game comes out and it's all about kidnapping aliens.

Aww I can't wait for this one. I think it looks snazzy. Not that I watched all 30 minutes.

"ZOMG SPOILER"
what are you guys, 12?

I blame Presidents Of The United States. Peaches come from a can, they were put there by a man, in a factory downtown.

I thought that achievement unlocked joke was pretty lame too, unless somehow "backdoor" immediately translates to "buttsecks," which it does not. Buttsecks jokes are always funny; a simple position change joke is not.
I'm buying this game so hard.
And by that I mean erect.
Matt B @ Apr 3rd 2007 4:48PM
$50 for a 2d game FTL!!!
Rubang B @ Apr 3rd 2007 4:54PM
The game switches back and forth between 2D and 3D, or have you not read any of the posts about this game for the last 6 months?
sheppy @ Apr 3rd 2007 4:59PM
I've had this game on reserve for the longest. Now it's simply a race. Can Nintendo get my repaired Wii back to me before April 9th... if not, I recently purchased DJ Max Portable 2, Beatmania IIDX Red, and Daigasso Band Brothers so I can remain patient. It's just the first release in a logn time that's made me glad to own a Wii.

Oh come on, Sheppy. Give her a break! She's loosening up. She wears a thong nowadays, so you KNOW she's at least thinking about it...

I really don't care that I will be paying "$50 for a 2D game", this game will probably get played more than any other game (so far) and that makes it actually WORTH $50 to me... unlike quite a few other games I have wasted money on...
I can't wait to see all the cool things that this game has for us. Just the first level introduces the Mega Star that we have already seen, as well as the Pal Pill, which is really awesome (if this has already been used in a mario game before excuse me, I haven't been a nintendo user since the SNES)

Not much gameplay shown in the video. That 20 minute intro was about 19 minutes too many, and the writing was awful.
What happened to the "pick up and play" paradigm people have been wanting? Will this game have 15 hours of gameplay, 14.5 of which will be cutscenes?
