Yeah, that how it is with me so far. Too much money, stickers album full... why bother with the puny enemies. Feel more like a nuisance than progression each non boss battle.

I heard that later in the game the cool, unique stickers are quite expensive, so it may be worth it earn even more money.
I love the concept behind Paper Mario. 2D flat worlds in 3D, stickers, turn-by-turn combat... awesome. But why does it have to be Mario again? There isn't much here that resembles oldschool Mario except the cosmetics. Think I would've appreciated it alot more as its own universe and IP. There are more than enough koopashells and mushrooms in other Nintendo games. But yeah, It's not that important, just a thought...

Three save slots.

So how is this game? Say compared to TTYD
well, Mario's cartoony aesthetics and visionary universe + humorous, absurd content are a great mix. Plus, the whole serie is so surreal you can basically add every crazy idea you want and it wouldn't look out of place. Not many IPs give you that artistic freedom. And let's not forget it's a highly popular character

Man. Newegg gets you them discounts but you sure as hell gotta wait a minute before it gets here. Right on time, finishing up Dragon Quest 9 now 
After playing it for myself? It seems my overall "MMBN vibe" was proven right. The Sticker System reminds me a LOT of "Battle Chips", and the overall battle system seems so much faster, with nice bonuses for getting no damage.
At this point, part of me is wishing that there were more advanced Sticker Setups to craft in order to make for "Program Advances". But otherwise, I'm liking what I'm playing so far.

I game has 3 save slots. I really wish I didn't know that.

Yep, same. I thought the first mission was a nice little introduction to how you can interact with and explore the world.

Do you have to play these games in order? Is there a story running through them or are they all separate?
I own the N64 game on my Wii but never played it, but really want a nice portable RPG to be going on with over Xmas.

There's no such thing as ongoing story line in Mario RPGs.

None of them are really connected per say, but TTYD does have a cameo from Paper Mario 64.
Also play Paper Mario 64.

After watching the GB QL of this game, I am quite interested. It seems like a solid game though not perfect. I'll probably pick it up at some point.
ahhhh play first or watch the QL first

I think from what I noticed from getting the Poison Shroom Jackpot, if you touch an enemy or they touch you, they're also poisoned.

This post and Jeremy Parish's praise are the things that are pushing me into buying this. I might buy the digital version and sell the Donkey Kong code on eBay to offset the price.
when reading the save slot question, this made me realize that those who went DD with the game have potentially infinite save files as long as they have the SD cards around.
haha I read about that somewhere a few weeks ago. So awesome.

Shaking the 3DS makes your HP bar bounce around, too. :O
That's actually pretty cool!
It does <3

...I can see the Sticker Museum becoming very addictive for me.

Is it anything like the natural history museum in Animal Crossing?
Really? So far I hate the process of having to go to the museum and using Paperize mode to plant every sticker, especially when I don't even know where they go. I don't think I'm going to bother with it anymore. Why can't I just talk to the Toad and give him what I want to donate?
Holy shit, they do. Nintendo, god of little things.
I beat world one and am trying to start world 2, but...
Short version: I wouldn't recommend getting rid of the poison mushroom early on.
Favorite part so far is on 1-5, when you
the door wants a poison mushroom sticker, and I used one and stuck one up in the museum. The shady seller guy isn't there to sell me another one, the museum says legit sticker shops won't carry them, so I guess I'm going back to the final world 1 level because I think I got my second one from there?

knock over the tree and it takes out most of the background.
