Paper Mario: The Origami King is a cross-genre video game, developed by Intelligent Systems and published by Nintendo; it was released exclusively for the Nintendo Switch console in July 2020. The story follows Mario teaming up with his new ally Olivia to prevent the Mushroom Kingdom from being folded entirely into origami. The game is designed to look entirely like paper, with multiple open-world areas allowing for exploration and puzzle-solving. Turn-based combat is organized into circular rings, which can be rotated to line up enemies to deal more damage. The producer, Kensuke Tanabe (pictured), anticipating that he could not satisfy every fan, opted for entirely new gameplay and concepts compared to previous games in the series. The game received generally positive reviews, being praised for its graphics, writing and characters, and critiqued for the lack of other elements of role-playing games, such as experience points. Reception on gameplay, mainly the puzzle-style combat, was mixed.

Paper Mario is a video game spinoff series of the Mario franchise, developed by Intelligent Systems and published by Nintendo for its various video game consoles. The series began when Square took its Final Fantasy franchise to Sony's PlayStation console, leaving Nintendo without a role-playing game (RPG) for the Nintendo 64. The series follows Mario on various quests to defeat one or more antagonists (including Bowser) in worlds created with papercraft materials. The first game in the series, Paper Mario, was released in August 2000. The series has received praise for its writing, characters, and graphics, but garnered criticism for its transition from traditional role-playing to action-adventure, starting with Super Paper Mario for the Wii. The newest game in the series, The Origami King, was released on July 17, 2020.

Paper Mario: Color Splash is a 2016 video game developed by Intelligent Systems and published by Nintendo for the Wii U console. It is the fifth game in the Paper Mario series. The story follows Mario and a paint bucket named Huey as they work to save Prisma Island and rescue Princess Peach from Bowser. The game world is made up of crafting materials. Along the way, Mario and Huey encounter places that lack color, and Mario must fill them in with his paint hammer. The developers focused on color-themed puzzles and comedy, and implemented card-based combat to use the gamepad's touchscreen to sort, paint, and flick cards. Color Splash was initially criticized for its focus on turn-based action-adventure elements, continuing the trend started by its predecessor to move the series away from its role-playing game roots. However, it received generally positive reviews upon release, gaining praise for its writing, graphics, and gameplay elements.
