The Best Mario RPGs: All 9 Ranked

9. Paper Mario: Sticker Star (3DS)

Kicking off the ranking of all of the Mario RPGs out there is Paper Mario: Sticker Star for the Nintendo 3DS. Just because it’s in last place doesn’t mean this was a bad game. In fact, it was pretty damn fun and perfect for some on-the-go RPG action.

Set in the Paper Mario universe, you were treated to the same papercraft world of the N64 original, only this time with the added magic of Stickers. These served as power ups and items and could be placed within the world to help you advance.

The problem with the game was that there was a lot of backtracking and it was pretty difficult. There was no real direction. So although the action was fun while you were in it, the act of getting to those fun bits was often frustrating.
