Super Paper Mario is a RPG-styled platformer developed by Intelligent Systems and published by Nintendo for the Wii. The gameplay is similar to the classic Super Mario games, but with the aesthetic qualities of the Paper Mario series, RPG-like elements like character dialogue and puzzles, and a blend of 2D and 3D platforming. The player starts out with only Mario, but unlocks Princess Peach, Luigi, and even Bowser through the game, and can change between them at any time.
The game was originally planned for the Nintendo GameCube in 2006, but Nintendo changed it to a Wii release due to declining GameCube sales.

Emulation Information
Bounding Box Slowdown on NVIDIA Cards
NVIDIA cards are abnormally slow during Bounding Box effects even at very low internal resolutions when using D3D11. They get dramatically slower as the internal resolution increase, even though comparable AMD graphics cards suffer no slowdown at all. This is due to Dolphin hitting a slow path on those graphics cards. It is recommended that supported NVIDIA users use other video backends when playing games that require Bounding Box emulation to avoid that.
When Using Older Graphics Cards
This game uses a feature known as 'Bounding Box', which Dolphin typically uses Shader Storage Buffer Objects (SSBO) to emulate. This requires a NVIDIA GeForce 400 series or newer, a AMD/ATI Radeon HD 5000 series or newer, or a Intel Broadwell Integrated GPU (Intel HD 5300+) or newer and an operating system that supports OpenGL 4.3, D3D11, GLES 3.1, or Vulkan. On macOS, MoltenVK can be used to attain Vulkan support on the latest builds. If Bounding Box is not emulated correctly, the game will show severe graphical glitches and won't be playable to finish.
Because Dolphin has gone through many variants of Bounding Box support throughout its history, it may be possible for older graphics cards to use less accurate versions of Bounding Box present in older builds. On Android, 5.0-9322 or newer is required for Bounding Box to function at all when using OpenGL ES due to an unrelated bug. Please note that other driver issues can often cause issues with Bounding Box emulation, which can produce similar bugs to having no Bounding Box support whatsoever. In this case, updating drivers or using a different video backend may be your only recourse.
Freeze When Starting a New Game
Disc images that have been converted to the NKit format will freeze when attempting to start a new game. This is a problem with NKit, not Dolphin. Converting the disc image back to a non-NKit disc image will fix the problem. See issue 11900.
Problems
Dolphin Freezes during Void takeover in Chapter 6-2
Dolphin may freeze completely when the Void takes over during Chapter 6-2, after the laughing Sammer Guy runs away. This issue has been present since at least 4.0.A workaround is to disable the Panic Handlers in Dolphin's main Configuration menu, under the Interface tab, while playing Chapter 6-2. This has been fixed in 5.0-11866.

5.0-266 | Windows 10 | Intel Core i7-5820K | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 | DX12 runs at 60 FPS in 4k but suffers some minor drops when flipping.Suffers major drops in the elevators at the beginning, | Brimaster2000 |
5.0-266 | Windows 8.1 | Intel Core i3-4030U | Intel HD Graphics 4400 | Runs perfectly but animations won't bound with BG images if aspect ratio is 'stretch to window'. Sometimes, Pixls don't appear after going through doors, which when tried to switch to 3D, results in computer freeze. | SahilGagrai |
5.0-3012 | Windows 7 | Intel Celeron G1610 @2.6 GHz | Intel HD Graphics | Runs excellent, NEEDS bounding emulation and EFB to RAM. Runs 60 FPS using D3D11 (Reaching up to 80 disabling frame limits), but OGL runs way slower, 45-55 FPS. Native Resolution. | EblfIYH |

Vulkan and D3D11 both give a constant 60FPS, except that Mario's switching between 2D and 3D could cause a slowdown to 40~. Perfectly playable in all. OpenGL is not tested. | amiboss |
5.0-11827 | Windows 10 | Intel Core i7 6700K @ 4.0GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 | Configuration: 1440p with Widescreen enabled, high res texture pack, and other enhancement settings. Game version USA Rev 0 (v 1.00). Vulkan works very well, consistent 60 FPS. Encountered an issue in Chapter 6-2 after the Mimi fight, when the Void takes over and the screen flashes white after the laughing Sammer guy runs away, Dolphin freezes. I was able to get around this by disabling Panic Handlers in the main Dolphin config. | hman360 |

The Paper Game Mac Os Catalina
25.2 MBDeveloper: 3909 LLC
Release date: 2014
Version: 1.0.41 + Full Game
Interface language: English
Tablet: Not required
Platform: Intel only
To bookmarksPapers, Please is a puzzle simulation video game created by indie game developer Lucas Pope, developed and published through his production company, 3909 LLC. The game was released on August 8, 2013 for Microsoft Windows and OS X, for Linux on February 12, 2014 and for iOS on December 12, 2014. A port for the PlayStation Vita was announced in August 2014, and was then released on December 12, 2017.
In Papers, Please, the player takes on the role of a border-crossing immigration officer in the fictional dystopian Eastern Bloc-like country of Arstotzka, which has been and continues to be at political hostilities with its neighboring countries. The game takes place at a migration checkpoint in Grestin, a border city split between Arstotzka and the neighboring country of Kolechia, and a fictional parallel of the Cold War-era division between East and West Berlin. As the immigration officer, the player must review each immigrant and return citizen's passports and other supporting paperwork against an ever-growing list of rules using a number of tools and guides, allowing in only those with the proper paperwork while rejecting those without all proper forms, and at times detaining those with falsified information. The player is rewarded in their daily salary for how many people they have processed correctly in that day, while also being fined for making mistakes; the salary is used to help provide shelter, food and heat for the player's in-game family. In some cases, the player will be presented with moral decisions, such as approving entry of a pleading spouse of a citizen despite the lack of proper paperwork, knowing this will affect their salary. The game deals with the issues of keeping up with immigration policy in an ever-changing political environment. In addition to a story mode which follows several scripted events that occur within Arstotzka, the game includes an endless mode that challenges the player to process as many immigrants as possible.
