Hello and welcome to my Paper mario 64 walkthrough. Some of you may know me 
from my TTYD walktroughs however this will be my first complete walkthrough. 
Some readers may be wondering "Oh didn't you start a walkthrough for this game 
and never finish". That is true I was busy durring school but I can find time

few other things. If you don't want to read them use your computers search and 
type the code show in the table of contents. Another thing that i need to 
mention is my email change wich is now [email protected] So now let us

Prologue  (AAA9) 
================

================================================================================
The game starts out showing mario's house. Parakarry will fly in and drop off 
some mail, then Luigi will go and get it. Mario will enter the room and Luigi 
tells him it is from Princess Peach. After reading it it tell you that you are 
invited tp her party a the castle. Wait for the cutscene to end... and head off 
to peach who is located up the stairs through the second room and then go to 
the end of the hall to find her door. After talking to peach a cutscene will 
activate wich then leads into a fight with Bowser. This is a good fight to 
explain how to fight.

Battle Tutorial:

Battles in this game are the standard Rp format. You will take turns trying to 
get eachothers Hp to 0. For now you wont be able to see the enemies Hp. This 
fight is acctually impossible to win so for now I will just explain some 
things. At the top of the screen are all of your stats such as Hp, Fp and coins 
ect..., Also next to Mario are his choices of moves. Later you will get more 
and the items will becime accesable. Use jump to attack him for 1 damage. Keep 
fighting until he destroys you.

[Sorry to say thats all for now]
{More to come in the next few days}
