A remake of my Dark Aspects of Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door analysis for GameCube, now covering the remake on Switch! In this episode, it's all about chapter 3 and the seedier side of Glitzville's fighting arena, the Glitz Pit. Mysterious email threats sent by an anonymous party? Missing fighters? Watch as I unravel the mystery indepth with this careful analysis of my favorite part of TTYD.
