This book is VERY helpful, except...towards the end where it starts to stop being detailed and helpful. Then if you're looking for a guide to help you to the end, but finish it off yourself this is for YOU!

As as non-gamer, this was a helpful place to start as I coached my son through this game. I still needed to get on-line to get additional information on many occasions, but I was happy to have this book to start my research. Plus, my 6 year old son loved the pictures!

4.0 out of 5 stars It's about time!!!, February 20, 2001

This review is from: Paper Mario: Prima's Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)

The sequel to the popular Super Mario RPG is finally out!! Paper Mario is a 2-D storybook adventure and Prima has published another well written guide but why should you buy it?? Paper Mario is the deepest (if not the only) RPG for the Nintendo 64. There are a total of 80 hidden badges and 160 Star Pieces to find throughout the course of the game. I strongly suggest anybody who has Paper Mario to play the game. I mean really play the game to understand its a great game. Overuse of the guide is a *much* less-rewarding experience and you'll beat the game with a flat look on your face.
