An article over at Next Generation has the title of ‘THIS WEEK: Super Paper Mario Folds on Wii’. While the title is a clever play on the nature and practices of paper, it seems to neglect that when something ‘folds’, it is considered to have failed or gone out with a putter. For example, if Take Two’s legal troubles continue unabated, and the company ‘folds’, we know that it has gone under. And we will never see a GTA again.

So, to say Super Paper Mario folds on Wii makes it sound like the game was released and failed miserably in sales, which is ludicrous since it only came out today (but wont be in stores until tomorrow…damn release dates). It was very misleading though. When I saw it, I thought ‘How can they have sales numbers for a game that hasn’t even been unboxed yet?’

Fortunately, the titles was a bad choice of wording and not a sign of bad things to come…or is it?
