Paper Mario: Sticker Star 3DS Review

I kinda hope for them to go back to the formula of the first and second, those are probably two of my favorite RPGs of all time.

Somebody would. It's a catch 22. You can't please everyone with anything.

Operation Adhesive initiate!

I agree with you, just let me point out that I didn't intend for that to sound like an excuse, coming from the developer. They don't get to make excuses, in a perfect world. The whole you can't appeal to everyone thing is true, obvious, but true. It's the same with the notion of a 'perfect' consumer experience -- it's just not possible, and the people who expect it are generally the ones who are disappointed with the final product(s).

When it comes down to it, I don't know how anybody expected anything like TTYD out of this. It's not like Nintendo had been hiding bits and pieces of information from the press. From the initial announcement, the only thing about this game that resembled TTYD was the papery-art style. And the Italians.

7 out of 10 is fair to me.

If it's TTYD or the N64 version, I would prefer to play them over and over than play this over and over. I had to push myself to finish certain areas of this game.
