These are the review scores for Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, one of the best Paper Mario games in the series. *Zooms in on the score Game Informer gave the game* What. The. Hell. :mad:
Wait a minute...

So, I get it. Someone said a really good game is shit, and your first reaction is "WTF? What are they smoking!?" and that's a legit reaction.
Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut.
Reviews are only good if the reviewer gives the score they think the product truly deserves. If we start holding reviewers to our own opinions, or to the opinion of the masses, then we've already corrupted the process. There's functionally no difference between a reviewer giving a game a good score because it's popular, and a reviewer giving a game a good score because they were paid to do so.

It is funny. Kind of reminds me of the uproar about Skyward Sword getting a low review in one of those popular websites.

Paper Mario : Two Thousand Year Door is one of my favorite Mario games. It was something I thought that they did different with the Mario series.

I have never played this game. I haven't really been a fan of Mario since Super Mario Brothers 3 on the NES.

I am curious of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door but not enough to hunt the game down.
I imagine that since it is being considered really good, it probably would be expensive to buy even second hand. :/

The best way to get into these old Gamecube games is to fire-up a Dolphin Emulator and source... *somehow* a copy of the game.
Most modern PCs now can run Dolphin at a decent speed. -

I ran dolphin on my PC with Wind Waker rom, but I used my extra Xbox One controller and it worked great.

Yeah, I kind of figured out that good ol' Dolphin would probably be the most reliable solution at this point.
Good to hear XBox controller works well with GC emulations.

If you have a GC controller lying around, and can flesh out the $30 (I think) for the GC to Wii U adapter (USB), it's really great. Dolphin supports it out-of-box as well. I've not personally tried with an Xbox controller so it's really down to what you prefer, I guess.

I've used an Xbox controller with Dolphin for GC games, actually worked quite well, also with Project64 too.
Now I just have a corded USB GC Controller and a Logitech Wireless Controller and they both work neat.
Most of my games: -

Whoa, quite the collection!
I am curious, how does playing the Wii games fair? Is there a viable way to use a controller, despite having no motion controls? I would love to be able to rig my Dolphin emulator to play them better.
I have a neat setup currently where I use a Raspberry Pi to use this streaming technology called like moonlight that communicates with ShadowPlay from NVIDIA on my desktop computer and stream the screen to the TV, and send the USB input to the computer as well. It's the closest thing I've gotten to replicating a couch-to-TV experience with "upgraded" visuals while deviating from original hardware. The GameCube experience is really good running at a forced 16:9 ratio and 1080p quality with heavy sampling and other smoothing techniques. The N64 one works moderately well, I just had to get a USB controller for it instead, but I am at a total loss on what to do for Wii.

Works rather well, I played Metroid: Other M and Mario galaxy 2 all the way through using a wii Remote and a Bluetooth adapter.
