| Section | Writer | Comments |
| Studying Abroad | DryBonesBandit (talk) | This is a very fun and well-executed idea. DryBonesBandit's choice of a world from the original New Super Mario Bros. breathes life into an area of the Mario world that doesn't really feel lived in within the game itself. (Also, it has Snailicorn!) |
| Super Ninelevendo Entertainment Reviews | Ninelevendo (talk) | I've always been a fan of Ninelevendo's reviews so it was a nice surprise to see this section again. The usual quality standard is still present here, and I appreciate the balance of this review. Ninelevendo explains what he likes about The Thousand-Year Door but isn't afraid to be critical of elements that he felt were weaker, so it's not just uncritical praise or unrelenting criticism. It makes for a very refreshing take on a game that so many people have such strong opinions on one way or the other. |
| Paper 'Shroom: Choose-Your-Own-Adventure | The Shroom Staff | The very existence of a project of this scale is nothing short of a massive feat from everyone involved. The writing, the art from various community members, even the technical aspects holding it all together - everyone who worked on making this happen should be proud! If you haven't played any of it yet, you're missing out! |
| Community Art | HedgehogGaming (talk) | This is a delightfully creative piece! It's cute, and employs a technique for coloring a piece you don't see very often, and a thematic one at that! Not only did the overall piece match up with the issue's TTYD theme, but the makeup of the piece tied in with the Paper Mario series's emphasis on papers and crafts. One-off displays like this are a welcome addition to Palette Swap, and hopefully this will inspire more! |
| De Millenniumpoort, or a Girl Talking about a Localization | Catydoll409 (talk) | One of my favorite sections of the year. A fun little look at the differences in localizations and a loving tribute to one of Catydoll409's wife's favorite games. I love it. |
