Paper Mario PC port: quick answers
- Do I need to own Paper Mario?
- Yes. PaperBoat-Switch-Port needs game files from a copy you own. PlayPorted links only to the project page and never to game files.
- Is the Paper Mario PC port finished?
- It is in beta: playable, with known issues. Its last update was Oct 2026, and the latest release is switch-v1.0.3-rc1.
- Which systems does it run on?
- Not confirmed yet. Check the project page for the systems it supports.
- Is it an emulator?
- No. PaperBoat-Switch-Port rebuilds the game's source code, so it runs as a native program instead of through an emulator.
