Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door Gets ESRB Rating

A rating from the The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) has surfaced online for the Nintendo Switch version of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. This hints that an announcement for the release date of the previously announced Switch port may be on the horizon. Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door launched on August 11, 2000 for the Nintendo 64.

The game’s details via ESRB:

This is an adventure role-playing game in which players help Mario rescue Princess Peach from an alien group. As players traverse whimsical worlds, they interact with characters and engage in turn-/puzzle-based combat against paper creatures. Players use various attacks (e.g., boot stomp, hammer strike, fire balls) against cartoony enemies that disappear into stars and coins. A handful of characters engage in brief flirtatious dialogue (e.g., “Aren’t you a fine specimen of a man”; “Perhaps if I…grabbed you and gave you a little sugar”), and/or are designed with large chests/exaggerated proportions.
