In Paper Mario games, even though the characters appear to be 2D sprites, they are actually 3D models internally, simply made to look 2D through applying a variety of effects. For example, even though the model has a regular facing angle internally, this is simplified to only four different sets of graphics being used (facing towards/away from the camera to the left/right), creating the impression of there only being four directions.

It is possible to simply replace the Paper Mario model with a regular 3D Mario model (shown here in Paper Mario: The Origami King, but working similarly in other Paper Mario games) without needing to modify the engine, which showcases the unused 360° facing angles.

In addition, it also demonstrates that whenever Mario turns away from the screen, his model turns inside-out as a consequence of how Paper Mario has two "sides" (front and back) and only one is visible at a time, which is done by turning him inside-out in the same manner.
