Yes, the other games I've played ARE awesome, and VERY good, easily some of the best games around. It's just that, well, the first, to me, is still the best of these amazing gems. Maybe it's because it was the first to come up with that timed action battle system for the series (later half-arse incorporated into Final Fantasy games :D, like the R1 press to fire the gunblade in mid slice in FF8, that was SO Mario RPG). Anyway, Squeenix handling a new Mario RPG with a fully developed party of 5 to, I dunno, 10 characters, would be great.
I have ONE question about Paper Mario 2. Is Bowser the ultimate evil like in Paper Mario 1, or has Bowser been forced to ally with you (against his will) as in Super Mario RPG and Mario & Luigi? If it's done in standard RPG fasion, as in, Bowser is only revealed to be a puppet at the halfway point really far into the game and like, the evil being from the 17th dimension (whoever sent Culex to Mario's world for example :)), who's name IS Hate, suddenly swoops in and changes everything, then, don't answer that.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
