That... is a grand shame.

It sounds like it suffers from the same thing I thought about Super Paper Mario- that it's been made too simplistic with the elimination of partners (no funny Tattles!), fewer timed attacks, removing Star Power attacks, and now even leveling. Streamlining a series is one thing, but the first two PMs appeared quite simple despite having a lot of hidden tricks to them like the 'stylish' moves in TTYD. Particularly if the main mechanic you're taking everything else away to focus on is as simplistic as you've described. Almost always better to add things to a series than remove them.

If a 5th Paper Mario is made for the Wii U I hope they realize this as well as returning Bowser to the role of 'butt monkey/sometime ally'. Dude's even funnier when he's not calling the shots.
