New Super Paper Mario Footage
In this video, Erik Peterson the localization writer and editor for Super Paper Mario runs through the basics of gameplay. This clip is more extensive than what we have seen in the past. There is footage of Mario, the Princess, and Bowser, also Peterson introduces the sidekick named Tippy. He goes into detail about how each character controls differently, and how each levels up. The game is shaping up nicely. The transition between 2D and 3D finally makes sense, and should provide some interesting gameplay.

I am crapping my pants with excitement for this game.
And can I just admit my gigantic, Bowser-sized crush on Erik Peterson from this video? He seems to up doing half the PR for new games, and every time I see him, my nerd heart skips a beat. So spastic he can hardly get his words out. My kinda boy.
What a cute little man :)
Oh, and the game looks awesome too.
I actually got a chance to talk to Erik about the game at the GDC and he said it was an exciting game. And the people who play tested it want to own a copy even though they may have beaten it 2 or 3 times already. I know I can't wait either!
Does anyone know when this one is coming out Europe?
