If a new 2D Metroid doesn't do it for you, however, then perhaps you'd be interested in this. If the leaks are to be believed, then Nintendo is finally digging deep into its bag of most requested games and will launch a new Paper Mario game for the Switch this year.

The last mainline entry in the series, The Thousand-Year Door, released in 2001 and has since become one of the most popular games of its era. Requests for a remaster of some kind have been rampant, but Nintendo has remained painfully quiet on this charming series.

Every leak about this new Paper Mario game is clear on one thing; it's going back to the roots of the series, harkening back to The Thousand-Year Door and even the very first Paper Mario game on the Nintendo 64. All of the rumours suggest that this new Mario RPG will steer clear of the less-popular entries, such as Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam and Paper Mario: Sticker Star.
