Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is Famitsu’s most anticipated game

Paper Mario: The Millennial Portal and the most awaited game by readers of the Japanese magazine Famitsu: as the release date approaches, set for May 23rd exclusively on Nintendo Switch, the long-awaited remake has surpassed Monster Hunter Wilds and the mysterious Pragmata.

1. [NSW] Paper Mario: The Millennial Portal – 832 votes
2. [PS5] Monster Hunter Wilds – 758 votes
3. [PS5] Pragmata – 456 votes
4. [NSW] Pokémon Legends: ZA – 313 votes
5. [PS5] Gundam Breaker 4 – 286 votes
6. [NSW] Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD – 260 votes
7. [NSW] Professor Layton and the New Steam World – 249 votes
8. [PS5] Metaphor: ReFantazio – 244 votes
9. [NSW] Powerful Pro Baseball 2024-2025 – 223 votes
10. [PS5] Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance – 217 votes

Compared to the last time we took a look at this top 10something has certainly changed: Pokémon Legends: ZA, announced last February, rose to occupy fourth position and Metaphor: ReFantazio also gained a few points.

At the same time, Sand Land has understandably dropped out of the ranking, being now available (the press welcomed it with decent votes), while among the new entries we certainly point out Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance, which we find in tenth position but we imagine it will rise rapidly.

A much awaited remake

But let’s get back to talking about Paper Mario: The Millennial Portal, since it’s about a particularly awaited remake by fans of the Nintendo series. In fact, it arrives twenty years after the original for GameCube, with the intention of renewing the experience not only from a technical point of view.

Under Mario’s command, in the game we will have to cross the paper version of the Mushroom Kingdom to once again save Princess Peach, who has invariably been kidnapped by Bowser. To succeed, however, we will have to open the legendary Millennial Portal…
