As if Battle Bits #007 already covering highly specific janky interactions weren't enough for him already, Rawk Hawk's ceiling prop attack can revive fallen partners! #TTYDBattleBits

For those that missed it at F3, slightly extended version of the teaser for a new project I'm working on is premiering at 3:00 PM EDT! https://t.co/nFtPOoc75g

TTYD Battle Bits #027: Outta Spite

Enemies can "hold" Spite Pouches in TTYD without you being able to tell! #TTYDBattleBits

TTYD Battle Bits #026: Star Power Level

The amount of Star Power you gain by attacking in TTYD is possible to calculate exactly! #TTYDBattleBits

You can find more details about the original drop routine on the Super Mario Files blog, as well as a spreadsheet with the updated drop tables:

TTYD Battle Bits #025: Switched-up Spoils

By popular request, here's a short description of how item drop logic changed for the Switch version of TTYD! #TTYDBattleBits

Just as a heads-up, I'm going to be out of town for a few weeks; expect semi-regular Battle Bits posts to resume very late in June. In the meantime, which of the following topics would you be most interested to see covered next?

[Paper Mario: TTYD Battle Bits @ttydbattlebits]

@glan_9 These are the Action Command params for regular Jump, Multibounce, and Power Bounce (in the GCN game, these shared one table); the values are apparently w/respect to 60Hz. I'd say this probably seems intentional, but single-Unsimplifier having two early FP inputs is wild, lol.

[Paper Mario: TTYD Battle Bits @ttydbattlebits]

@HazardousJosh03 Yep, I'll possibly make a comparison post at some point, but most are relatively similar.

TTYD Battle Bits #023: Nary a Drop

Getting an item or badge drop that enemies aren't holding from battle in TTYD is a surprisingly rare occurrence! #TTYDBattleBits

[Paper Mario: TTYD Battle Bits @ttydbattlebits]

@PJiggles_ If that's too useful, Flurrie has a unique animation for "attacking" an audience member holding a good item, in both the original and the remake:

she still does it!!

[Paper Mario: TTYD Battle Bits @ttydbattlebits]

@PJiggles_ Enemies were previously disallowed from holding Spite Pouches in-battle even though their item hold/drop tables suggested that they should have had a chance to do so; they now can hold and use them in the Switch version.

Taking a break from playing TTYD on Switch to post this piano stream highlight of me playing the Petal Meadows theme!

Just about to start my casual first playthrough of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door on Switch! Excited to see it with a new coat of paint and see what kind of little mechanical differences I notice!
