It may have slipped under the radar at this year's E3, but Mario's forthcoming GameCube outing Super Paper Mario has quickly become one of our most anticipated games of the year.
Super Paper Mario takes 2D Mario and co. from their similarly named RPG habitat and puts them in some old-school platforming mischief spread over eight worlds - snippets of which you can see in the brand new screens on this page. However, with its 2D/3D perspective gameplay elements and RPG trappings, Super Paper Mario isn't your usual side-scrolling platformer.
Super Paper Mario is currently scheduled for Q4 (in the US at least) and, alongside DK Bongo Blast, is likely to be Nintendo's last Gamecube fanfare. Sob.
