super paper mario boxAs of 2:20EST on 4/6/07, Super Paper Mario has an average of 85 out of 100 on metacritic.

Also noteworthy is that it has a perfect 10 out of 9 user ratings!

Here’s some of the first reviews:

IGN - 89
It controls tightly and uses the Wii remote in a smart manner without stepping into forced territory. The new 2D-to-3D dynamic is built around clever and surprisingly complex puzzles that will challenge and impress you. And it all comes together to make Super Paper Mario a highly enjoyable title, whether you want to call it a platformer, an RPG, or something in-between.

Play Magazine - 85
It feels and looks polished, considerate, and expensive.

Games Radar - 80
Anyone with half a heart will absolutely fall in love with the characters, the graphics, the dialogue, the old-school shout-outs to previous games, the little visual effects lingering in the skies of every world… the love just keeps plopping out of the speakers at an incredible rate. For every annoying, excessively long fetch quest or mundane puzzle, there’s a huge, cutesy payoff that makes all the trouble worthwhile.

    I can hardly wait to see that box coverart on the shelves. Remind us what the release date is for this one! See that dragon in the background? I wonder if it’s the same one from The Wind Waker.

    SUPER PAPER MARIO HAS A VERY GOOD STORYLINE AND HAS LOTS OF EMOTION AT THE END. BUT THERE IS STILL SOME THINGS I DONT LIKE ABOUT IT. IN THE FIRST TWO PAPER MARIO THEY HAD BATTLE SCENES I REALLY ENJOYED THOSE.
    BUT I SEE THEY WERE TRYING TO MAKE IT LIKE THE OLD NES
    GAMES. I REALLY LIKE THE IDEA OF NOT JUST MARIO SAVING THE WORLD LIKE BOWSER EVIL JOINING UP WITH GOOD TO SAVE THE WORLD I FIND THAT INTERSTING. THIS
    GAME OVERALL I WOULD GIVE A 87/100 MAINLY FOR THE BATTLE SCENCES, SOME GRAPHICS (I.E WORLD 4)I LIKED THE MULTI CHARACTERS AND THE PLOT
