Making the first Paper Mario wasn’t easy for Intelligent Systems. First and foremost, the team couldn’t decide on the proper approach that should be taken for the game’s visuals.

Here’s one of the earliest designs created for the project:

As you can see, the title wasn’t known as “Paper Mario” at the time – understandably so. Instead, it was tentatively called “Mario RPG 64”. While it’s made of 3D polygons, according to Naohiko Aoyama, it features “an atmosphere like that of a picture book transplanted into a video game—with paper-thin 2D background and characters.”

The Wii U browser has a bit of a secret video playback function. It would appear that most, if not all, MP4 video files should be viewable through a computer.

Essentially, all that’s required is to set up a simple web server and upload the desired files. Then visit the server by entering your IP address in the URL bar, click on the video you wish to see, and that’s it! There’s a slightly more in-depth explanation here.

Video playback is limited to MP4 files. Other file types such as AVI and MKV aren’t compatible.

Thanks to Jackson for the tip.

This update should only be treated as a rumor for now. Officially, SEGA has yet to confirm a final date for the portable racer.
