A folded Mario turns sideways for timed hits in Paper Mario, the storybook quest Intelligent Systems made with Nintendo. Goombario and other partners join the turn order, and a button press inside the attack window raises the damage.
The 2000 battles still use jump and hammer, but the timing is the skill. Star Spirits and a paper theater frame a map of towns where Mario is flat enough to slip through a crack.
It is the start of this paper line, before the GameCube sequel and later spin-offs. The sideways turn, the partner puzzles, and the timed hammer belong to this Nintendo 64 storybook.
Same series is the tight name match. Same franchise is the wider family. Same platform is other games on the systems named above.
