The peak of the Paper Mario series and one of the best RPGs on any Nintendo console.

Paper Mario in a turn-based RPG with a brilliant idea: battles play out on a theatrical stage where the audience claps, stomps and contributes to the action. Timed button presses turn every attack into a minigame, and paper abilities like folding into a boat enrich exploration. A witty script, colorful companions and a lovingly written world make The Thousand-Year Door what many consider the best Paper Mario and one of the best RPGs on the console overall.
