I managed to snag a few shots of this GORGEOUS LADY while I was in the middle of a photoshoot...I would have missed seeing it entirely if my client hadn’t looked away from the camera and loudly exclaimed: “ Ohhhh...GTR!!!”

Yes, Paper Mario is canon

This has been something the Mario lore community has largely accepted since 2015, but it seems a lot of newer folk aren’t quite so filled in! I’m writing this post to be a quick way to catch people up on the subject. This post is also adapted from a Reddit post, which can be read here. Same experience either way, more or less!

Part 1: For Context

The Paper Mario games tell stories of Mario’s adventures through an arts and crafts or pop-up book aesthetic. This is because from the very beginning, the Paper Mario games were meant to be set in a book that retold Mario’s adventures, but were accurate depictions of the mainline Mario universe.

Since our first priority was to protect the atmosphere and setting of the Mario universe, we decided to only use characters from the mainline Mario games. The side characters from Super Mario RPG therefore do not appear. I think that with Mario, sticking to the “main road” is the best. Plus, it would feel weird to have heavy themes like “betrayal” in the overall cozy, heartwarming atmosphere of the Mario world. (laughs)

- Ryota Kawade, Chief Director of Paper Mario (Nintendo 64)

We spent close to a year and a half trying out different character ideas. We also tried using pre-renders like SMRPG, but we figured it would be more fun for us to attempt something completely different this time, and that paper-y Mario was the result.

- Hiroyasu Sasano, Support on Paper Mario (Nintendo 64)

Herringway said he definitely wants to write your story. He even came up with a title... What was it again? Let's see... Well... "Paper Mario"!! What do you think!!??

- A Penguin, Non-player character in Paper Mario (Nintendo 64)

A real Mario Story told through the perspective of a storybook. Not at all dissimilar from what Dr. Mario 64, Mario Party 6, Super Mario Galaxy 2 and Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker all do.

This carries through to later games such as Paper Mario: Color Splash as well:

…I think one thing is that because this is taking place within the greater Mario world, we wanted to focus as much as possible on the familiar Mario characters.

- Risa Tabata, Assistant Producer of Paper Mario: Color Splash

This establishes the Paper Mario games as canonical events which also happen in the world of mainline Mario games, but despite this the developers were not afraid to have some fun with the aesthetic they were working with.

Although not the main focus, many paper-based gags were present in the world from the start.

Actually, the very first challenge Mr. Kawade and others had to face was how to cowince Mr. Miyamoto. For example, we had to explain how we'd utilise the idea of things being flimsy like paper to a large degree in the final game. The utilisation of paper-like elements was more of an 'improvemert' for him than an 'innovation' since the original idea was there with the N64 version.

- The Toads and Mario in the Temple of Shrooms have holes punched in them by the Hole Punch and Bowser’s Minions are cut up by the Scissors guarding the castle. All of these magical effects are undone upon the bosses’ defeats.

With all that taken into account, it’s clear that this is genuinely a Paper World. However, since we also know that these events are supposed to take place in the real world, the only possibility is that the Paper Mario games depict events, locations and characters that exist in both the real world and the Paper World. We see these events from the perspective of the Paper World, but everything still happens in the real world without the paper aesthetics.

The opposite also applies, with all of the adventures the real Mario has been on occurring in the Paper World, with the paper aesthetics.

Part 2: How it Developed

In Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, the lore of the Paper Mario world is greatly expanded upon. We learn that it’s a “parallel world” located within a legendary magical book. For the first (and as of writing this, only) time, we see the Mario cast interact with their Paper counterparts. This has lead some people to believe that the Paper Mario games didn’t occur in the real world, with Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam retconning what had already been established, but that couldn’t be further from the truth.

In fact, in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam the opposite is implied. The game constantly calls attention to how the two worlds are exactly parallel through character dialogue. Some examples of this are Kamek and Paper Kamek coming up with the same plan to betray each other at the exact same moment and have the same proceeding conversation with their respective Bowsers, or when Peach and Paper Peach talk about themselves on Mount Brrr, realising how their lives and personalities are the same and even coming to the conclusion that they are the same person.

This was wholly intentional on the developers’ parts, with the core of the game being focused on showing inner depth to these personalities through interactions with their doubles:

Mario and Paper Mario, Princess Peach and Paper Princess Peach…It was fun to create interactions between different versions of the same character who come from different worlds like these examples. For this game, we created themes for each of the interactions between the main characters. We emphasized the characters’ personalities for each of the character interactions, such as Mario being curious about Paper Mario’s special abilities and trying to see if he can use them himself (even though both Mario and Paper Mario are the heroes of their respective worlds), the two Princess Peaches talking about girl stuff, the Bowser Jrs. getting along immediately like old friends, etc.

- Shunsuke Kobayashi, Director of Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam

Plenty of other games set in the real world have also referenced the events of Paper Mario games, further proving they occurred in the real world:

- Goomboss, who was created by Bowser using the Star Rod in Paper Mario, goes on to appear in Super Mario 64 DS and Mario Kart DS.

- Dry Dry Desert from Paper Mario appears in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, with Dry Dry Ruins, which were discovered during Paper Mario, appearing in Mario Kart Wii.

- Bowser’s Castle from Paper Mario, which was created by Bowser using the Star Rod, reappears in Mario Kart: Super Circuit’s Rainbow Road.

- Goombette from Super Mario Odyssey is pink, just like the other female Goombas previously seen in Paper Mario and Paper Mario: the Thousand-Year Door.

- Snowmen from Paper Mario reappear in various games in the Mario Kart series with the same appearance.

- The Mystery Egg item, featured in Mario Kart Arcade GP 2, is a reference to Mini-Yoshi’s Egg from Paper Mario: the Thousand Year Door.

- Sky Guys from Paper Mario reappear in Mario Tennis Aces and Mario Strikers: Battle League.

- Red Chomps from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and Super Paper Mario reappear in a movie projected by the WarioWare: Touched! souvenir “Reel-to-Reel”, as well as on the Pyramid Park board in Mario Party 7.

- Suits of Koopatrol armor from Paper Mario, Paper Mario: the Thousand-Year Door and Super Paper Mario appear in Bowser’s Villa on Vibe Island in Super Princess Peach.

- Koopatrols themselves appear in Mario Pinball Land.

- Whackas from Paper Mario, Paper Mario: the Thousand Year Door and Super Paper Mario appear in Mario Party 6 on the Snowflake Lake board.

- The Snow Bunny item from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door appears in Mario Party 6 on the Snowflake Lake board.

- The Headbonk move that Goombas perform in the Paper Mario series returns as an attack in Minion Quest: the Search for Bowser and Bowser Jr.’s Journey.

- The Star Spirits from Paper Mario reappear as hosts in Mario Party 5.

- Bowser Sphinx appears with Tutankoopa’s Headdress from Paper Mario on the Pyramid Park board in Mario Party 7.

- The names of Goombario, Kooper, Bombette, Moustafa and Tubba Blubba from Paper Mario appear on the scoreboards in Mario Golf: Advance Tour and Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour.

- Hammer Bros. appear with their uniforms from Paper Mario in Mario Kart: Super Circuit.

- In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga there’s a room in the Woohoo Hooniversity that contains blocks Mario has encountered in his past adventures. Amongst these are blocks from Super Mario Bros., Super Mario World and Super Mario 64, with a block from Paper Mario also appearing.

- Green Magikoopas, Red Magikoopas, Yellow Magikoopas and White Magikoopas from Paper Mario and Paper Mario: the Thousand-Year Door reappear in Minion Quest: the Search for Bowser, Bowser Jr.’s Journey, Mario Superstar Baseball and Mario Sports Superstars.

- Dark Boos from Paper Mario: the Thousand Year Door reappear in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time.

- Recovery Blocks from Paper Mario, Paper Mario: the Thousand-Year Door and Paper Mario: Sticker Star reappear in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time and Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam.

- Star Haven from Paper Mario, is mentioned in the intro of the Japanese version of Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time.

The lore of the Paper Mario games in general is also clearly of great importance to the series as a whole, with Super Mario Galaxy’s Power Star lore being directly pulled from the original Paper Mario in large part.

With that, it’s clear that all of these stories, locations and characters indeed exist in Mario’s real world as well as the Paper World.

Part 3: Wrapping it Up

Finally, I’d like to address some common questions that people are left with.

Is it possible that only some Paper Mario games happened in the real world, while others happened in the Paper World?

No. The events of all of the Paper Mario games happened in both the real world and Paper World. It’s made clear that all of the Paper Mario games happen in the same universe as each other, and therefore all occur in both worlds:

- Paper Mario: the Thousand-Year Door has many callbacks to Paper Mario, through locations like Mario’s House or Dry Dry Desert and characters like Parakarry, Kammy Koopa, Lady Bow, Jr. Troopa and Moustafa.

- Super Paper Mario features portraits of Mario’s partners from Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door in Mario’s House, as well as Catch Cards depicting them.

- Notes belonging to Goombella from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and Parakarry from Paper Mario can be found in the trash scraps of Shy Guy Jungle in Paper Mario Sticker Star.

- In Paper Mario: The Origami King, photos of Princess Peach from all previous Paper Mario games can be seen.

How do certain paper-y mechanics work in the real world, such as the Curses in Paper Mario: the Thousand Year Door or the Folded Soldiers in Paper Mario: the Origami King?

While many of the paper-y elements of the Paper Mario games can merely be acknowledged as gags and nothing more, story relevant ones like these still make sense within the real world.

Real World characters can be turned into paper, cut, folded or molded without major consequences. As seen in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, magical abilities like the Trio Attacks have the capability to turn real world enemies into paper, before cutting or folding them without any “real world” consequences outside of dealing normal damage. Keeping in mind that the Curses in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and Origami Techniques in Paper Mario: The Origami King are too both magical in nature, it makes perfect sense.

Additionally, the real Mario games are no stranger to cartoonish gags as well. Looking to the Mario & Luigi series, for example, in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Luigi is able to be squashed into the shape of a surfboard, while in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Luigi swims through the air to reach the blimp. Additionally, in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Mario & Luigi: Bowser Inside Story and Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, Mario is able to be blown up like a balloon or filled to the brim with water.

In the Mario Kart series, characters can be flattened like paper by being crushed by a player with a Mega Mushroom or by obstacles such as Thwomps on the track, before the effect wears off soon afterwards.

In Mario Super Sluggers, a Koopa Troopa hides within a poster, identically to how a Goomba hid on a sign in Paper Mario.

Stickers from Paper Mario: Sticker Star are not natural to the Mushroom Kingdom. The Stickers come from the Sticker Star, and rain down over the Decalburg region once a year when the Sticker Comet arrives.

The magical Paint found in Paper Mario: Color Splash is consistently described as a life force throughout Paper Mario: Color Splash:

“You know... paint! That colourful stuff coursing through our bodies?”

“The paint you just absorbed is basically my blood, sweat and tears.”

“Paint adds beauty and life to the world.”

“Where exactly are we supposed to find this magical, life-giving paint you speak of?”

“I did basically sacrifice my lifeblood to get you out of that pickle back there...”

“They’re sucking the very life out of this beautiful island!”

Paint also appears as a sort of “life force” in various games that take place in the real world, such as Super Mario Sunshine, Luigi’s Mansion and Bowser’s Fury. When Things, real world objects, are wrung out in Paper Mario: Color Splash, they too produce paint, proving that paint is not a substance exclusive to the Paper World.

Conclusion

The Paper Mario games occur in both the Paper World and the real world, but we see them from the perspective of the Paper World. All of the events, locations and characters from the Paper Mario series exist in the real world, with the events, locations and characters from the real Mario series existing in the Paper World.

Dreams are something of a mystery. No one, not a single scientist, knows why we dream. Are we simply filtering through memories as we sleep? Are our subconscious trying to tell us something? Or are we tapping into a realm beyond our reality?

=============================================

It has been a while since Gideon had acted like a normal kid. So long that he had forgotten how dull schoolwork is, especially since he is smarter than the average ten year old attending the fourth grade. His teachers and even his parents proposed for him to skip a grade or two, but Gideon wanted to be a ‘normal’ kid.

He quickly remembered that he was far from normal when he started doing his math homework that was painfully easy to figure out.

▽△▽△▽△▽△▽△-▽△▽△▽△▽△▽△-▽△▽△▽△▽△▽△-▽△▽△▽△▽△▽△-▽△▽△▽△▽△▽△

Gideon opened his eyes to what looks like the inside of the Tent of Telepathy, but larger in size with rows of empty pews and the area bathed by stars and navy blues and lit candles floating in the air. As for himself, he seems to be coated in a cyan hue, similarly to the candles, making him stick out against the dark colors surrounding him.

Placed beside the pews are multiple pedestals containing an item, each holding memories related to that item. Some of it was little stuff, like an ice cream cone, holding memories of him and his parents having a good time over at the corner shop. Or a board game Gideon remembered playing and his dad letting him win almost all of the time.

Then, there were items like Journal 2. Picking up the book from its pedestal and Gideon was met with a vision of the moment he found it: Gathering dust inside of the library closet and he knew where it went from there.

On the next pedestal was the cursed amulet. He picks it up and sees himself finding the amulet placed inside of a box hidden underneath the roots of a tree. He saw himself performing telekinesis for the first time in front of his parents. They all thought it was a neat trick…until Gideon kept using it.

Gideon sighs ruefully to himself, unaware of the candlelights dimming.

Then…a small light gains his attention. He followed the little orb to the stage, curtains drawn closed. The little orb slipped through the velvet. Gideon peers inside to see what looks like a hunched darkly cloaked, hooded humanoid with a long beard, resembling Spanish moss.

The entity beckoned Gideon closer and…

▽△▽△▽△▽△▽△-▽△▽△▽△▽△▽△-▽△▽△▽△▽△▽△-▽△▽△▽△▽△▽△-▽△▽△▽△▽△▽△

Gideon blinks awake with a piggy snort. He looks around, noticing that he has returned to the real world.

“Goodness me…I must’ve dozed off. It’s been awhile since I’ve entered my dreamscape. It looked a little different from before. Less portraits of Mabel and no ragdolls resembling my enemies on chains…” Gideon mused. “I guess that means I’ve gotten better.”

He looks down at his homework and sees what he has written in his sleep.

FALLL

The supposed third ‘L’ had a long squiggly line attached to it, likely from Gideon waking up.

“This is…mildly unnerving,” Gideon commented, slightly perturbed. “Maybe an after effect of Weirdmageddon?” He starts erasing the bold letters off his school work. “Let’s just put this on the back burner for the time being.”

[A video has been posted to Pyrite's account... you want to watch it?]

[Y/N]

[...]

[BEWARE OF WARNINGS IN TAGS BEFORE CONTINUING]

[Falling, falling, someone bats at the phone a few seconds before grabbing it... Pyrite, or it seems to be him, his eyes are an icy blue, his voice is hard to hear over the rushing winds-

"Fallling- -can't hear- -see the ground- shit!" suddenly there's a sickening CRACK noise as the phone clatters to the ground, the camera pointing up and showing Pyrite? skewered on a large crystal, he scrambles to try and lift himself off of it, but he is coughing up blood and looks panicked, slowly the blue seems to drain out of Pyrite?'s eyes, leaving the original golden color.

Pyrite's eyes roll to the back of his head from pain as he slumps down, still coughing, blood can be seen dripping down the crystal.

"Oh no oh no oh no oh no NO NO NO NO PYRITE NO!!" Chronos flutters down into frame, trying desperately to pull Pyrite up and off the crystal, as they do that, it can be seen that one of his legs is broken, bone sticking out.

"Ch... Chro... Chronos...." Pyrite coughs more, struggling as well.

Iron Eclipse obscures the view of the camera for a moment, Chronos can be heard sobbing in fear and pain, wailing, barely coherent...

...

Pyrite is dropped next to the camera, his wheezing breaths can be heard as Chronos sobs more, the phone makes noises and it's picked up, Pyrite's face can be seen now, blood leaking from his nose and mouth as he stares sightless at the sky, his chest is rising and falling extremely slow... the camera is shaking, the sound of typing can be heard

"P-please... no he can't die... he can't die yet please..." He hiccups, "Wh- what am I meant to tell them...? They're asking-"

"HE WON'T DIE."

Eclipse's mechanical voice cuts though Chronos' sobbing questions, as the sound of rustling comes from the side.

"What are you...?"

A feather comes into view, held in Eclipse's beak, it's dropped down onto Pyrite, right onto his chest.

"What's that meant to do?!" Just as Chrono's says that, Pyrite coughs violently, taking a sudden sharp intake of breath, his eyes go wide as the Celebi backs up, taking the phone with her in shock.

Pyrite's body is healing, bones reforming with skin and muscle, bones breaking and slotting back into place, Pyrite is screaming, jolting and thrashing as it happens, clearly in massive amounts of pain.

"Wh- WHAT DID YOU DO?!"

"SHUTING... DOW N N . . ."

Eclipse falls to the side, as Pyrite's screams are cut off by more coughs and gasps for air, the phone is dropped by this point.

The video cuts off on it's own.]

If I had any artistic abilities I would draw the ghostbusters as Mystery Inc.

Ray is Fred obviously, and he’s get the little ascot and draw him setting traps and getting excited about mysteries.

Egon is Velma, and he gets the orange red color scheme but in sweater vests/ ties and slacks, Jenkies he’s lost his glasses, figuring things out before everyone else

Venkman is like classic Daphne, always fallling into traps Damsel in distress, and a little new Daphne using his flirting and looks to bamboozle unforthcoming onlookers. Constantly underestimated yet always coming out on top.

Winston was harder, but him as shaggy. Specifically thinking of him getting scared by the train. Less there for the ghosts but still in for the good times. Loyal to his besties above all else.

I feel like obvi slimer has to be scoob for aesthetic reasons and Janine/ Louis moonlight as scrappy just for comedic purposes

These shots right here specifically

Like if my ability fell anything above stick figures, I’d be on this like icing on cake. But alas.
