Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam -- Part 22: Papercraft Throwback

The bros have found the three pieces of Fire Ore Toadette needs. She says they won't believe what she can do with it. She sends them ahead and will bring their papercraft to them when it's ready. Go up using the Up button, then go north. Bowser's happy the bros made it here. Paper Bowser thinks they're not worth fighting, when they can fire a Papercraft Bullet Bill. It chases the bros until it's destroyed by a fireball. Another fireball destroys the Papercraft Bill Blaster. Toadette says their papercraft is ready. Bowser's upset at Toadette's tenacity. Paper Bowser orders minions to ready the ultimate papercraft. The bros' new papercraft is Papercraft Fire Mario.

Paper Kamek says their efforts were in vain. They've repaired and upgraded Papercraft Megacrinkle Goomba. Press (X) to throw fireballs. If another papercraft is hit with enough fireballs, it will catch fire and won't be able to move for a while. First up is Papercraft Whomp. He'll fall on the ground, which can stun you. If you're able to dodge, you can use a jump attack. After Papercraft Whomp is defeated a Papercraft Airship will appear. It fires Papercraft Bullet Bills. Use fireballs to bring it to the ground. Be careful not to fall off the edge. Defeat it and Papercraft Megacrinkle Goomba will appear. Once you cross onto its side, the gates will rise back up. It's much faster than before, but dashes shorter distances. Use fireballs to stun it. After you defeat it, a different gate drops. Step on the platform to move to the next area.

Next up is Papercraft Bowser Jr. There's a hole in the floor. He'll use the same attacks as before. After it's defeated, you'll have to dodge flames. Take the platform to the next area. Papercraft King Boo and Papercraft Boos are here. Defeat Papercraft King Boo and a platform will take you to the next area. Papercraft Kamek is here. Its magic prevents you from hitting it with fireballs. Just use jump attacks when it uses its magic. Heal if necessary, charge up, then move onto the next area.

The arena is quiet and empty. It shakes and a door in the floor opens. Papercraft Bowser appears, manned by Bowser and Paper Bowser. Paper Bowser says it will take more than fireballs to defeat them. It will back into the bros to hurt it with its spikes. Jumping on it won't work as it uses its fireproof shell to protect it. After it breathes fire, use your fireballs. Stun Papercraft Bowser, dash into it to knock it over, then jump on it. After a couple of hits, it will do a spin attack. Dodge it, then hit it with fireballs, then jump. It can also jump after a spin attack. After a lot of damage, the Bowsers say they'll regret attacking and their papercraft will not be defeated. It will take a few more hits after this.

Bowser is upset. Paper Bowser says they need to regroup and assemble the Koopalings. The path ahead breaks up and is replaced with spikes.

Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam -- Part 15: Save a New Girl in Pink. Save the Papercrafts.

The bros have reached the pipe the Koopas went through to haul papercrafts. Cross the bridge and a Papercraft Bullet Bill nearly drops on the players. The Kameks appear, along with Papercraft Dry Bones and Papercraft King Boo. Lemmy Koopa and Morton Koopa Jr. control Papercraft King Boo. The Kameks want to settle things and the Koopalings want to stomp the bros. Paper Kamek thinks Papercraft Boo is menacing, but Kamek doesn't think it's the most menacing papercraft ever. Papercraft Kamek is disappointed that they won't get to use it because the bros don't have a papercraft. He starts envisioning it, but Kamek says they've got one ready to go. It's Papercraft Yoshi. The Kameks fall to the ground. Paper Kamek wonders how they snuck it into Bowser's Castle. Toadette says she built it here just now.

Papercraft Yoshi can do a ground pound when (A) is pressed in midair. Use it to hit switches or stun enemies when you land near them. Use (B) to stick out Papercraft Yoshi's tongue to grab things and tow floating enemies. Defeat enemies to make poles appear so you can cross the lava. Use the Starman to clear out the Papercraft Goombas. Make your way around to the largest platform and cross the bridge. Papercraft King Boo appears. There will be three Papercraft Dry Bones that will get in your way, so get rid of them. Papercraft King Boo will ground pound the area. Move out of the way, then attack when it's off it's pedestal. When Papercraft King Boo is at half health, it will summon two more Papercraft Boos. Papercraft King Boo will do a rolling attack. Dodge it and attack.

After the battle, the Kameks thought that Papercraft Yoshi was so good, they've decided to kidnap Toadette. They're also going to build the best papercraft yet. Go north. The bros enter a long hallway. Flames appear from the floor, preventing the bros from going north. There are Paper Boomerang Bros here, which are particularly dangerous, because the boomerang they carry can be another Paper Boomerang Bro. Go west. There's a Fly Guy holding onto Toadette. He starts to fly away. The bros have to defeat him before he does. Use Trio Glide to cross the lava. Use the fan blocks to turn them on and off. Catch up to the Fly Guy and battle him. Toadette thanks the bros for saving her. She decides to return to Peach's Castle. She looked around the castle and thinks the princesses are on the top floor.

The Bowser Jrs. are bored guarding two cardboard princesses. Paper Bowser Jr. wants them to try to escape to give him something to do. He also wants them to say something different. He tries to tell them Mario's not going to save them. He slowly starts losing it and decides to go outside. Behind the cage, the princesses spy their moment to escape. They decide to leave through a window. Bowser Jr. is sleeping, wondering why it's so cold.

Luigi is worried about Toadette, but she says she can take care of herself, having tracked a treasure or two. Hit the nearby Bowser Block to make one of the eyes in the floor close. Go through the pipe, return to the long hallway, and go east. There's a long path with many fans blowing the bros off of it. Dash at an angle to make it across safely. When you loop around, Trio Glide to left. Hit the Bowser Block and ! Block. This will open the door and make the flames disappear. Return to the long hallway and go up the elevator.

The bros hear Peach's voice. The princesses are outside, on a different part of the castle. They head back. Walk forward. The door is open. The princesses meet the bros inside, but Paper Bowser Jr. grabs them in his clown copter. The Bowser Jrs. lock them behind a door, calling it a dirty trick for them to sneak out when he was sleeping. He's going to tell Bowser. Paper Bowser Jr. wonders if the bros are there for the book or the princesses, giving away the fact that they've been holding it all this time. Bowser Jr. thinks both, but says they're never giving back the book. The Bowser Jrs. realize the bros didn't know they had the book. Starlow wants both the book and the princesses back. They don't want to, so they split up and run away. Go east and west to get some items and coins. The door to the princesses won't budge, so leave them for now.
