Paper Mario: The Millennium Door is preparing to return to Nintendo Switch as soon as this week. The game GameCube comes back even more beautiful and as fun as ever almost 20 years after its initial release.
According to Digital Foundrythe game would run in 900P in TV mode and 640p in handheld mode with a frame rate capped at 30 Fps (compared to 60, only small hiatus during the port…) But the most interesting thing is that it seems that the game files contain code allowing 4K resolutions to be managed. This is in all what one claims dataminer and which restarts rumors of full backwards compatibility of the Nintendo SWITCH 2.

Join Mario and his friends on their adventure to discover the legendary treasure hidden behind the Millennium Gate. Paper Mario: The Millennium Door, the Nintendo GameCube classic, returns with improved graphics on Nintendo Switch!
The hunt for Star Gems is on
It all begins when Princess Peach calls on Mario to help her in a treasure hunt which begins in Port-Lacanaïe. But when our hero arrives there, the princess turns out to be nowhere to be found! Learning of the existence of the Star Gems, he decides to set out in search of these legendary treasures in the hope that they will help him find Peach's trail.
Obviously, Mario is not the only one who wants to get his hands on the Star Gems, and Bowser will be just one of the formidable rivals standing in his way! Will our hero be able to find the Star Gems, open the mysterious Millennium Door, and perhaps also save the world?
A paper world full of surprises
To get your hands on the Star Gems, you'll need to venture outside of Port-Lacanaïe and explore the world! All kinds of adventures await you, such as a confrontation with an enormous dragon hidden in a disturbing castle, the exploration of a cursed city plunged into darkness, or even a thrilling investigation to be carried out aboard a train!
In this paper world, Mario will bend over backwards to overcome all obstacles! He can transform into a paper plane to fly over precipices, become spindly to slip into narrow spaces, and much more!
Partners with special talents
During the adventure, you will meet colorful characters who will be happy to lend you a hand. These allies will not only help you in your quest, but they will also set the mood during your journey!
Each has unique abilities. To name just a few examples, Goomelie can reveal information about the places you visit and the enemies you encounter, Koopek can retrieve out-of-reach objects, and Lady Cumulia can make obstacles fly away to reveal secret passages! You can even use these abilities during battle to gain the upper hand over your opponents!
Theatrical battles
In this adventure, turn-based battles take place… on stage, in front of an excited audience! You can perform all kinds of actions to defeat your opponents, such as equipping yourself with badges that give access to new attacks, or using special techniques that channel the power of Star Gems!
Use timing when attacking or defending to improve the effectiveness of your actions. The more you shine in battle, the more the public will cheer you on!
