That is unfortunate to hear, paper Mario was a very well done game.
When you level up and decide to lvl up your hp, it says "choose this one if you lack bravery" and at the beginning they ask if you want to go on an adventure to save the princess and let you say no to drop you at a funny "okay!" Game over screen lol
Brazil always been a SEGA den. lol
Even now, we have Microsoft and SONY officially here and Nintendo has half assed support in the sense that USA consoles will accept Brazilian credit cards for purchases and it will allow you to put Brazil as your country but there's no real Nintendo here in Brazil.
I suppose they don't care.
