Super Paper Mario is a yet-to-be-released side-scrolling platformer for the Wii, in the vein of the classic Mario titles, but with the aesthetic qualities of the Paper Mario series. However, it's not just a 2D side-scroller. The game fuses elements of 2D and 3D gameplay together, shifting back and forth between dimensions.
Both Princess Peach (who has an umbrella like Perry with her) and Bowser appear to be playable characters in addition to Mario. The characters in the game are able to transform into humongous 8-bit sprite versions of themselves, and plow through enemies and bricks with reckless abandon. Interesting to note is that the giant characters are actually versions of the original Super Mario Bros. sprites, blown up to epic proportions.
The game was originally planned for the Nintendo Gamecube, but Nintendo changed it to the Wii. Additionally, the game was originally going to be released in 2006, but the year has been changed to 2007.
All of the graphics in the game also seem to have pixelated effects, including small squares to make up colors of objects and backgrounds; however, they are visible and share a style with Super Mario Picross. (See the ground, trees, clouds, etc. in the screenshot above) This suggests Super Paper Mario may take place in a digital world.
