It took fourteen years, but someone has finally managed to get their hands on the original Nintendo 3DS trailer for Paper Mario.

Before Paper Mario: Sticker Star became what it was, Nintendo and Intelligent Systems were seemingly going in a different direction for the title. Rather than what we got, the plan was to stick with more traditional gameplay that the series’ was mostly known for. That meant things like partners, a more standard RPG system, and more.
