Nintendo Treehouse Live E3 2016: Day 2 — Paper Mario: Color Splash

By LUDWIG VON KOOPA - Completely unexpected. We're absolutely bewildered here.

We have been developing a theory at KoopaTV throughout this incredibly long Day 2 of E3 2016, as we've been covering Nintendo Treehouse Live: They're going to save Paper Mario: Color Splash for basically last and show a ton of stuff we don't care about. Then, by the time Paper Mario: Color Splash arrives, we'll actually like it.

That may or may not have ended up actually happening. We ended up having a VERY enthusiastic response to Paper Mario: Color Splash, and it's still unclear whether it's fatigue or we actually somehow enjoyed it.

You can read the log and find out for yourself. I'm Nintendork 13 13, Vortexica is breezinabout, and RawkHawk2010 is RawkHawk2010. 

Nintendork 13 13 5:58 pm

 RawkHawk2010 5:59 pm

 breezinabout@msn.com 5:59 pm
    "Roll it!"

 Nintendork 13 13 5:59 pm
    Did these guys narrate this

 breezinabout@msn.com 5:59 pm
    Mario's house is actually in this game?!

 Nintendork 13 13 5:59 pm
    Peach and Toad are unsettled in robes.
    GOOD SIGN SO FAR

 Nintendork 13 13 5:59 pm
    the hell
    Blank Toad
    Prism Island
    Perilous quest to solve the mystery to solve mystery of folded Toad.

 RawkHawk2010 6:00 pm
    The Mystery of the Folded Toad
    is this in-game narration?

 Nintendork 13 13 6:00 pm
    "The storm has passed, but clouds of uncertainty loom. And not those smily Mari0 clouds"
    I'm actually enjoying this.
    Best thing all day.
    (Their plan worked)

 RawkHawk2010 6:00 pm
    "Those poor colorless Toads."

 Nintendork 13 13 6:00 pm
    DIALOGUE

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:00 pm
    Those poor colourless Toads!

 Nintendork 13 13 6:01 pm
    THERE'S DIALOGUE
    AND MYSTERY
    The Plaza transforms.

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:01 pm
    I don't believe what I'm seeing.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:01 pm
    It's a paint can? But WHY?!
    HUEY

Paper Mario: Color Splash Huey paint bucket new character partner
Huey! His eyes normally aren't red. So he seems mad.


 RawkHawk2010 6:01 pm
    Huey

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:01 pm
    Bloodcurdling Toad scream.

 RawkHawk2010 6:01 pm
    "Stop! Get off me!"
    LOL

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:02 pm
    NOOOOOOOOOO

 Nintendork 13 13 6:02 pm
    "TOAD! NOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Paper Mario: Color Splash Princess Peach Toad Shy Guy straw
This is the darkest thing in the series. ...If you pretend it didn't exist before 2010.

 RawkHawk2010 6:02 pm
    This is terrifying.

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:02 pm
    NO!
    I want more!

 RawkHawk2010 6:02 pm
    That Shy Guy was like Imperfect Cell.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:02 pm
    Bloo Bay Beac

 RawkHawk2010 6:02 pm
    *turns volume way up*

 Nintendork 13 13 6:02 pm
    "A course called Bloo Bay Beach"
    Oceanfest.
    "Paint Stars"
    "The dialogue in this game is incredible."
    - Treehouser

 RawkHawk2010 6:03 pm
    "Toads will be Toads."
    Damn, lots of racism here.

 RawkHawk2010 6:03 pm
    Music sounds pleasant.

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:03 pm
    Clouds are coming in.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:03 pm
    He wrecked a Toad.

 RawkHawk2010 6:03 pm
    I assume it's composed by the Sticker Star dude.

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:03 pm
    Nice little effect.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:04 pm
    There's a nice Koopa.
    YES
    HE HIT THE PLUMBER
    GOOD JOB SOLDIER

Paper Mario: Color Splash Koopa Troopa battle system screen beach
“Go fish.”


 RawkHawk2010 6:04 pm
    so it's like Sunshine but reversed.

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:04 pm
    I'm getting Sunshine vibes from this.

 RawkHawk2010 6:04 pm
    You're slinging goo instead of cleaning it up.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:04 pm
    Wot's that plumber doing, playing poker?
    They're talking about Intelligent Systems.
    YIKES THE KOOPA
    IS's manager has a kid into painting
    and they made a game based off that?
    Has cards to choose attacks.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:05 pm
    With action commands.
    "You have to fill in all these spots."
    Is it just me or is he doing nothing? M_M
    it's just me
    "The environments in this game is completely made of paper. It's all papercraft, for the first time in the series."
    There's a legendary pirate captain.

 RawkHawk2010 6:07 pm
    maybe it's bobbery

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:07 pm
    "But I guess it's just a legend"
    Classic.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:07 pm
    NOOO NOT THE FAN
    Those coins look super-nice.

Paper Mario: Color Splash Fan Replica card gold coins graphics
Fan Replica aside, those are the best looking gold coins in ANY Mario game.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:08 pm
    They say the Wii U's power allows you to see the paper in detail.

 RawkHawk2010 6:08 pm
    Is the loading icon the amiibo symbol?

 Nintendork 13 13 6:08 pm
    "Real-looking paper"
    Huey talking about the ocean view.
    Huey lamented he's a flimsy piece of paper.
    So I guess he used to be a real bucket.
    You can hit the environment to get your paint restored.
    In terms of cards, same kind of cards as Sticker Star.
    (Worn-Out Jumps and all)
    "Part of the game is that paint conservation"

 RawkHawk2010 6:09 pm
    i can barely hear the music but it sounds good from what I can tell

 Nintendork 13 13 6:09 pm
    THERE'S NO EXPERIENCE
    You only get coins.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:10 pm
    Blue Toad captain.
Paper Mario: Color Splash Blue Toad boat captain discover my destiny journey
While the characters may be Toads, at least their dialogue is great. And they're potentially reoccurring.

 RawkHawk2010 6:10 pm
    Toad called Mario a loser.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:10 pm
    Toad called the Blue Toad a loser.
    SHH THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT STICKER STAR
    "We decided we'd love to do a game for the new hardware, the Wii U" after finishing Sticker Star.
    "Wouldn't it be fun to flip through cards and flick them from the touch pad?"
    "It was a party so everyone was in good spirits"
    THIS GAME'S PHILOSOPHIES
  

 Nintendork 13 13 6:12 pm
    WERE DECIDED
    WHILE THE DEVELOPERS WERE DRUNK
    gnhgfghtfghfrbhtrgfnhgfrhgtr
    THAT EXPLAINS A LOT

 RawkHawk2010 6:12 pm
    hmmmmmmmm

 Nintendork 13 13 6:12 pm
    "All new mechanic" are "enemy cards"
    The only way to get them is to defeat enemies.

 RawkHawk2010 6:13 pm
    so it's Pokemon.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:13 pm
    "That's a really good reason to get into fights."
    Used a Shy Guy card.

 RawkHawk2010 6:13 pm
    PARTNERS

 Nintendork 13 13 6:13 pm
    Shy Guy is now a temporary non-commandable partner.

 RawkHawk2010 6:13 pm
    THE SHY GUY WAS A PARNER

 Nintendork 13 13 6:13 pm
    Shy Guy just got wrecked.
    Well, not a real partner.

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:13 pm
    Even temporary partners is better than no partners at all. <.<

 Nintendork 13 13 6:13 pm
    You can tell your partners what to do.
    For this, they're NPCs.
    "First thing you'll notice about Oceanfest is that it's ALL TOADS."

 Nintendork 13 13 6:14 pm
    Plumber just smashed a Toad with purple paint and it seems permanent.
    As long as he's on screen.
    Five Fun Guys.
    (Green Toads)
    (it's a pun)
    "Toad and Go Seek"
    There's a Toad on a tree.
    So this is like Paper Jam's Toad-finding minigames?
    >_>
    You can ask Huey for advice.
    "Tell me about Huey."

 RawkHawk2010 6:16 pm
    soooo
    what are coins used for

 Nintendork 13 13 6:16 pm
    Probably buying cards.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:16 pm
    Huey is a security guard.
    To protect the island.
    (He obviously failed.)
    "He's very very expressive."
    Angry Sun reference.

 RawkHawk2010 6:17 pm
    Nintendo is obsessed with mass-acquired expendable items.
    As seen by both this and Zelda.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:17 pm
    "Now my hair is all messed up. Hopefully no one will notice." - The Toad.

 RawkHawk2010 6:18 pm
    Was that Zip Toad?

 Nintendork 13 13 6:18 pm
    Wait wot
    Brand new mechanic?
    Shift everything to the GamePad.

 RawkHawk2010 6:18 pm
    SHUT UP LUDWIG I'M LOOKING AT THE WATER

 Nintendork 13 13 6:18 pm
    Use a pair of scissors to cut thin

 Nintendork 13 13 6:18 pm
    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
    GREEN PLUMBER

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:18 pm
    Hidden Luigis?!

Paper Mario: Color Splash Hidden Luigi shower outhouse
Luigi takes showers with his clothes on. Maybe he's made of cardboard.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:19 pm
    Huey: Was that a green Mari0 cosplayer?
    Luig1 gave Mari0 300 coins.

 RawkHawk2010 6:19 pm
    Toad Shuffle
    Not to be confused with Toad Scramble

 Nintendork 13 13 6:19 pm
    Just for clarity, Mari0 just used the new scissors-GamePad mechanic to remove a shower cover, revealing Luig1.
    Who had clothes on.
    But the shower's on.

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:19 pm
    A shower cover?
    I thought it was an outhouse. >.>

 Nintendork 13 13 6:20 pm
    ...yeah.
    Wotever it's called.

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:20 pm
    Either way, dat's invasion of privacy.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:20 pm
    ya

 Nintendork 13 13 6:21 pm
    Paint hammer and hammer are different buttons, I guess.

 RawkHawk2010 6:21 pm
    I like that you can whack benign CPUs.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:21 pm
    Huey says the Toad Shuffle is a scammer.
    THE GAME IS RIGGED
    "Shufflegate: Exposed"

 RawkHawk2010 6:21 pm
    SHUFFLEGATE
    SHUFFLEGATERS

 Nintendork 13 13 6:22 pm
    This game has great dialogue.

 RawkHawk2010 6:22 pm
    IT'S ABOUT ETHICS IN TOAD SHUFFLING

 Nintendork 13 13 6:22 pm
    Too bad the gameplay's awful.
    "REMEMBER: YOU SAW NOTHING!"
    Your hammer activates things.

 RawkHawk2010 6:23 pm
    print screen

 Nintendork 13 13 6:23 pm
    "Mari0 doesn't have a lot of finesse. He just whacks things to make it work."

 Nintendork 13 13 6:23 pm
    AHH

 RawkHawk2010 6:23 pm
    This is like your YouTube avatar.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:24 pm
    COURSE CLEAR

 RawkHawk2010 6:24 pm
    that star had no eyes

 Nintendork 13 13 6:24 pm
    Get coins and globs of paint.
    Like Sticker Star, minus paint.
    ANOTHER COURSE
    Unless the producers say no.
    :-(
    Crimson Tower
    The course map tells you how many % of blank spots you've covered.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:26 pm

    WHY IS MORTON TALKING LIKE A RETARD
    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

 RawkHawk2010 6:26 pm
    Pedal Stool

Paper Mario: Color Splash Morton Koopa Jr. Pedal Stool broke
Morton has never been this inarticulate. He was actually thoughtful in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam.


 RawkHawk2010 6:27 pm
    So you're gonna have Paper Mario dialogue.
    Huh.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:27 pm
    (ROY AND WENDY WERE RIGHT were referencing Paper Jam)
    Unless I'm not in the game.
    <_<
    Apparently, Shy Guy enemy cards are scared of Morton.
    So they'll run away.

 RawkHawk2010 6:28 pm
    What if Ludwig talks like a retard too?

 Nintendork 13 13 6:28 pm
    Morton was eloquent in Paper Jam.
    NOOO
    I DON'T WANNA BE RETARDED
    What if they make me gay or something?
    AHHH
    MORTON!

 RawkHawk2010 6:28 pm
    Well, that's how it went in MK8.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:28 pm
    Morton's colour is draining.

 RawkHawk2010 6:28 pm
    He talked like Banjo-Tooie's Jolly Roger.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:28 pm
    The music gets faster.
    "MORTON IS FIRED!"
    WHAT THE FUCK
    FIRE MALLET

Paper Mario: Color Splash Morton Koopa Jr. Fire Mallet hammer Nintendo Treehouse Live
Right after this screenshot, Mario heals himself. If he didn't he'd get OBLITERATED!

 Nintendork 13 13 6:31 pm
    "Someone ordered Morton to get the Big Paint Star?"

Paper Mario: Color Splash Morton Koopa Jr. defeated pain star
Paper Morton, in his last gasps, continues Enlightenment Movement themes. Mario is EVIL!


 RawkHawk2010 6:31 pm

 RawkHawk2010 6:31 pm
    That was so bad I started laughing out loud.

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:31 pm
    What is going on in this game...

 RawkHawk2010 6:32 pm
    That Neko Cat thing from Sticker Star was in the background

 Nintendork 13 13 6:32 pm
    Ya.

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:32 pm
    Paint Stars look like Shine Sprites.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:32 pm
    "Pain Star"
    Maybe Morton didn't know wot it's called.
    Wot if we got Morton to write for KoopaTV?
    Another video?

 RawkHawk2010 6:38 pm
    I'm surprised I didn't have a fucking seizure.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:38 pm
    are they going
    "That's gonna be it for this segment so please stay tuned"

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:38 pm
    Wow.

 RawkHawk2010 6:38 pm
    okay lemme breathe

 Nintendork 13 13 6:38 pm
    *deep breath*

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:38 pm
    That was intense.

 RawkHawk2010 6:38 pm
    Alright

 Nintendork 13 13 6:38 pm
    Okay.
    Um.
    Wannna debrief?
    On what we saw?

 RawkHawk2010 6:39 pm
    I dunno if this was due to the rest of E3 being absolutely horrible, but, uh, Color Splash...
    ...well,

 Nintendork 13 13 6:39 pm
    ...

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:39 pm
    Looks...

 Nintendork 13 13 6:39 pm
    .......

 RawkHawk2010 6:39 pm
    I don't think there's ever been a bigger gap between my expectations of a game and what I just saw.
    Like, has there?
    I was anticipating PURE SHIT.
    WITH NOTHING INTERESTING

 Nintendork 13 13 6:40 pm
    YEAH.
   

 RawkHawk2010 6:40 pm
    BUT HOLY SHIT
    WHAT WAS ALL THAT

 Nintendork 13 13 6:40 pm
    I
    I DON'T KNOW.
   

 RawkHawk2010 6:41 pm
    All I know is I'm buying it.
    lol

 Nintendork 13 13 6:41 pm
    Samantha Lienhard direct-messaged the KoopaTV Twitter 32 minutes ago:
    "This Color Splash footage isn't filling me with hope."
    I called her a "dumbass"
    (Sorry.)
    WHAT
    THE STREAM

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:41 pm
    I'm laughing so hard right now.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:41 pm
    Had a Japanese dude saying
    "YAYA"
    and another dude say
    "WAHOO" and then it cut off

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:42 pm
    I actually feel sorta bad after that.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:42 pm
    You do?

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:42 pm
    For... expecting it to be terrible.
    And looking forwrad to bashing it.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:42 pm
    Maybe on another year we'd still say it's terrible

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:42 pm
    Maybe.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:42 pm
    but I think everything else today was bad
    that must've been it
    Remember
    It's still Sticker Star 2.0
    Just with HIGH-ENERGY

 RawkHawk2010 6:43 pm
    We might have the highest praise of literally anyone, simply due to how low our expectations were.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:43 pm
    and at least Morton.
    ...yeah.
    It has dialogue and music and creativity.
    The characters are still not-original.

 RawkHawk2010 6:43 pm
    and SMB2 music!

 Nintendork 13 13 6:43 pm
    And who knows if the story is actually developed.

 RawkHawk2010 6:43 pm
    It referenced the GOOD Super Mario Bros!

 Nintendork 13 13 6:45 pm
    back
    More Zelda.
    Okay I'm going to work on the other logs.
    "We went through this stuff yesterday"
    Time for catch-up.

 RawkHawk2010 6:46 pm
    dudes
    That bit with the fire extinguisher putting out Morton's fire?

 Nintendork 13 13 6:47 pm
    Yeah?

 RawkHawk2010 6:47 pm
    That was like,
    made for us or something.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:47 pm
    Alberta?

 RawkHawk2010 6:47 pm
    Yes.

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:50 pm
    I need to see this footage again.
    With a pause button.

breezinabout@msn.com 6:52 pm
    The Sticker Star gameplay may not have changed, but hopefully the story/dialogue will make it worth playing.
    Kinda like how SPM's story pulled me through the rather average platforming, only worse than that obviously.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:52 pm
    But Color Splash won't have original dudes besides Huey.
    And might not be story-oriented.

 RawkHawk2010 6:53 pm
    the koopalings might as well be original

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:53 pm
    Well I'm living in hope.

 RawkHawk2010 6:53 pm
    if they're gonna take as many creative liberties with them as they did with Morton

 Nintendork 13 13 6:54 pm
    Well, Paper Koopalings haven't appeared before.
    And according to Paper Jam, those are original.
    <_<

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:54 pm
    Has that Dragonaught thing appeared in a Mario game before?

 Nintendork 13 13 6:54 pm
    no
    Though it resembles Blargg and Hooktail.
    But that might be like saying the Japanese cat is an original character.

 RawkHawk2010 6:55 pm
    "Has that Dragonaught thing appeared in a Mario game before?"
    yes
    wait

 Nintendork 13 13 6:56 pm
    ?
    It has?
    From what?

 RawkHawk2010 6:56 pm
    http://i.neoseeker.com/n/1/supermario3dworld09.jpg
    who is that ^

 Nintendork 13 13 6:56 pm
    Not even a dragon

 RawkHawk2010 6:56 pm
    o
    That's who I thought it was.

 RawkHawk2010 6:58 pm
    Everyone is bashing Color Splash except us. XD

 Nintendork 13 13 6:59 pm
    wtf

 RawkHawk2010 6:59 pm
    Even the people who were defending it pre-Treehouse Live.

 Nintendork 13 13 6:59 pm
    <.<

    All I see on twitter is stuff like that

 breezinabout@msn.com 6:59 pm
    Oh the irony.
    Is KoopaTV gonna become the last bastion of defence for this game when it comes out?



We were so shocked by Paper Mario: Color Splash that we cancelled the log for Day 2's The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. However, we still covered what came after that, so stay tuned for THAT.


Just for an idea of what our thoughts were on Paper Mario: Color Splash before E3 2016, click here.
Read here for why fire is meaningful to us, and why we keep name-dropping Alberta. 
Here is the significantly less interesting previous log about Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE.
The next log is the last one for Nintendo Treehouse.

Here is the last bastion of defence for Paper Mario: Color Splash. Before the game comes out, but entirely influenced by this log.

  1. I read the log in the hopes I'd see a magical revelation I somehow missed while watching the stream and understand why you were so impressed.

    It didn't work.

    I have no faith in Color Splash right now.

    Also, I think that dragon-thing was Draggadon from Captain Toad. It looked like him to me, at least.

    1. Yeah, Rawk realised it was probably the Captain Toad dude.

  2. Advance Wars: Intelligent Systems, can I have a new game now?
    Intelligent Systems: WHat did I tell you about asking that question. Back into the corner with you.
    *Fire Emblem, Paper Mario and Pushmo are all snickering at Advance Wars' misfortune*

  3. Told you so. I was really impressed as well. Lots of fun looking mechanics there.

    Hating Sticker Star has always been a meme. The game is great if you aren't a complete scrub.

  4. Although I was a little pessimistic towards this game, I'll give it one last chance. If it turns out to make a huge splash, maybe the series will not be dead after all.
