It goes without saying that Nintendo is yet to confirm a new Paper Mario, so take this news with a grain of salt. The last time we saw Paper Mario was back in April 2015 when it released for Wii U.
Another Mario game is good news for players worried about Nintendo dropping support for Wii U. Although NX is being cooked up behind the curtains, Wii U is still the leading console for the company.
NX will presumably be revealed this year at E3, with a release window of Fall. However, that is just an assumption on our part.
