Paper Mario (ペーパーマリオ, Paper Mario) is a stage in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS. It is based on the Paper Mario series, and shifts between different areas from it.

Stage layout

One of the variations of the stage is based on Hither Thither Hill from Paper Mario: Sticker Star. It features a windmill, a pipe, and a fan in the background that blows away several objects on the stage and pushes fighters to the right of the stage.

When the stage folds over it switches to a different variation, similar to how Kamek functions on Mushroom Kingdom U. One of these variations is based off of the S.S. Flavion from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. The ship takes its appearance from that game, and a giant Blooper, a recurring boss in the series, is seen in the background. It is currently unknown whether or not it interacts with the stage itself. The Whale from the original Paper Mario will appear to raise the ship with water through it's blowhole to stop the ship from it's rocky state.

The stage then shifts to Bowser's Sky Castle from Paper Mario: Sticker Star, which features Bowser's head of the castle turning as the battle rages.

Origin

Hither Thither Hill comes from Paper Mario: Sticker Star. In that game, Mario had to use the Fan sticker to access the windmill since the pedals were blocking its entrance. When he used the sticker, a cutscene played where several nearby obstacles were blown away. When used in battle, the Fan sticker would blow all enemies around.

The S.S. Flavion appeared in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, where it was the ship of Flavio. During Chapter 5, Mario and his party had to use it to sail to Keelhaul Key. After several days of sailing, they were ambushed by several Embers. The ship wrecked on Keelhaul Key, and its scraps were used to set up camp on the island. Large Bloopers are recurring bosses in the Paper Mario series, most notably in the first three. The specific Blooper bears a strong resemblance to the ones from The Thousand-Year Door and Super Paper Mario. The whale from Paper Mario, which was used to take Mario to Yoshi Village, makes a cameo in the stage.
