Kalimari's Desert Train

Kalimari Desert is a race course in Mario Kart 64. It is the fourth and final race of the Mushroom Cup. The course's most notable feature is the train track that goes through a mesa. The train constantly moves around the track, often crossing through the racers' path. Depending on what mode is being played, the train may or may not have coaches attached to it. If the player is on the track or runs into it, the player will be thrown in the air. It is possible to drive on the train's track, however this will cost the racer time.

The race starts out next to a large cliff formation, upon the first turn racers will see how empty the desert really is. At the end of the turn the racers will encounter the train for the first time. After passing the tracks the players will race alongside the track of the train (though it is in a cave and not visible) eventually running into it a second time. After this encounter the racers will race along the edge of the map and eventually work their way back to the finish line. ~ info from wikipedia

Blitty

Finally, to go along with my Broggy papercraft, Blitty from the DS game, Bowser's Inside Story!
I had this built and ready for a long time, but I didn't feel like making dozens of pdf, since there are 10 different versions, with 10 different faces. But I came up with an idea: I made a pdf for the "standard face", and you can change the face textures in the pdo. There's a .jpg into the download packs wich explains how to do so.
Its paws are into the template, and you can decide wheter to build the "standing" version or the "squatted" version (like I did)! :P
Templates here (you'll find both A4 and Letter).

Look-at-me-Boo

Birdo

We don't have just one, but TWO models to post today! There are two versions of Birdo, one from the N64 and one that appears to be from a GameCube game. Whichever one you build, I'm sure it'll look great!

Birdo, known in Japan as Catherine (キャサリン Kyasarin), is a pink anthropomorphic dinosaur with a tube-like mouth and a bow on its head.

It first appeared in the Japanese game Yume Ko-jo-: Doki Doki Panic, and the Westernized remake Super Mario Bros 2, as a recurring mini-boss who shoots eggs. It later appeared in Wario's Woods as an ally of Toad, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars as a boss character, and in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, as a boss paired with the thief Popple. It was first playable in the Nintendo 64 installment of Mario Tennis, as Yoshi's partner. Since then, Birdo appears as a playable character in several Mario sports games, and the Mario Party and Mario Kart series.


Both download files include PDF and PDO, with lines and with no lines.

Broggy

Today we bring you Broggy, from the recent game Bowser's Inside Story, for the DS.
Broggy is a monstrous dog-like creature coming from Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story whom serves Broque as his guard dog. It seems to be made from a yellow ? Block, with four legs and large ears on each side of its body. On its rear side, Broggy has a band-aid. Broggy protects Broque's Block store against intruders, and runs his own the Koopa Equipment shop.

Peach's Castle from Paper Mario

From designer Gipi, we have Peach's Castle. The castle seem to change from one game to another. In Paper Mario, where this castle is from, it is large and with a great many rooms. Each room has a function -- a bedroom, a library and many storage rooms. There is no warp pipe leading to the castle in Paper Mario. It can easily be reached from Toad Town.

Download HERE.

Invisible Boo

So the question is: how do you make a papercraft of something that is invisible? And the answer is: exactly like this!

Many thanks go to our very clever, resident Nintendo Papercraft designer, ddi7i4d, for creating this wonderful gem.

Boos were originally introduced in Super Mario Bros. 3 (under the name Boo Diddly!), and have since then been a regularly recurring enemy in many of the Mario games; they have even appeared as a playable character. As ghosts, they are able to pass through solid matter. However, they are shy, and will cover their face with their arms and become immaterial if they are directly looked at.

The brilliant thing about this particular model is the fact that it's almost impossible to see from this particular angle (see image).

Download: HERE

Edit: Super clever mr. ddi7i4d has just made an alternate version of boo - Visible Boo - just incase you feel like mixing and match!

Automata - Paper Mario Hammer

This is the latest from ddi7i4d of the forums.
Consisting of Mario as featured in Paper Mario, and a Goomba which is being smashed by a hammer, it actually moves! Stated to be made as simple as possible by ddi7i4d, it can be built in only half an hour. Enjoy!

Yoshi's House diorama

Here's a nice diorama from Super Mario World: it's Yoshi's house :D

Yoshi's House (also known as Yoshi's Tree) is a tree where Yoshi lives during Super Mario World. This tree has a fireplace, a mail box and berries, and it is located in Yoshi's Island.

The 3D part of the diorama is doublesided, so you'll have to glue the tree parts and the mailbox back to back. Note that some of the tabs are too big (the pineapple thing for example), so you'll have to cut them smaller. Have fun!

Super Mario 64 Head

It's a me! Mario!

It was a defining moment in video game history. Mario in glorious 3D! You know this head. It graced the opening screen of Super Mario 64, and and we finally hear Mario speak. You can pinch it and pull it.

And now you can papercraft it! Thanks to Pixel-Kakashi, who was kind enough to indulge my request for a papercraft Mario. It is about 15cm high and just about as wide.

There are some challenging attachments to be made and experienced papercrafters know how tricky it is to close a sphere; this is basically a sphere with a face and hat. I recommend a little experience before attempting to take this on. But it's not extremely difficult either. Hope you have as much fun building it as I did. Download comes in two paper sizes, Letter size for the peeps in the USA, and A4 for the rest of the world.

Model designed by Pixel-Kakashi.

Today really is a good day to release this guy, cause it's PK's special day. All of us here at Nintendo Papercraft want to wish him the best.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY,

Princess Peach DS

Welcome to our site, your highness! It's a princess visiting us!

Super Princess Peach marked a change of roles in the Mario series – it was Princess Peach's turn to save Mario and Luigi from King Bowser. With the aid of a talking umbrella named Perry, Peach traveled to Vibe Island.

Notes from Icthus' site: Now a super surprise for all!
Previously we share the Princess Peach of Nintendo 64. And now an upgrade with a better elaboration of the model. Besides, in two different poses and including her umbrella. And with two different kinds of hairdo.
The size of this model; 25 cm.

Bob-omb Version 2

Most of you are already familiar with Pixel-Kakashi's original Bob-omb model, and it is BIG!

Well, thanks to our beloved PK, we now have a smaller, more petite version of Bob-omb, plus some neat new textures that include the Buddy Bob-omb and the Navy-Blue Bob-omb.

This one stands at 16.5cm, and even comes with a shiny new accessory in the form of a fabulous new 3D wind-up key especially designed by Brandon.

Mips

eeoww! Unhand me, brute! I'm late, so late, I must make haste! This shiny thing? Mine! It's mine! That's right, it's Mips!

MIPS is a rabbit found in the basement of Princess Peach's Castle during the events of Super Mario 64. When Mario approaches the bunny, MIPS will run away. After Mario catches MIPS, the rabbit gives him a Power Star. MIPS appears in the basement a second time after Mario has collected fifty Power Stars.

Shine Sprite

First we had power stars, but now the Shine Sprite also made its appearence in PapercraftLand! Behold! The Shine Sprite!

The Shine Sprites are the source of life on Isle Delfino in Super Mario Sunshine. They gather by the Shine Gate and will scatter from it if provoked. They serve the same purpose as the Power Stars in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Galaxy.

2 pages, with some very small parts, but with enough time and patience, shouldn't be too hard. Have fun!

Super Mario Mushrooms

Mushrooms are a common item found in nearly every Mario game invented. Different types of mushrooms have different effects. Even the Toad People are a type of mushroom in humanoid form.

These different coloured mushies are the brain-child of Skelekitty and Paperbuff, after getting their hands onto a copy of Icthus7's Power-Up mushroom.

After a frenzied Photoshop session, the result was a Power-Up, a 1-Up, Poison, Super Mega, Super Mini, Life, Volt, and a Slow mushroom. You can download all of then in a single pack. Special thank yous to Icthus7 for (not exactly officially) letting us play with his mushroom!

Koopa Troopa

It's the Koopa Troopa! And it doesn't come with just one color! Oh no! It comes with a whooping 7 colors! Oh yeah!

Koopa Troopas are turtle-like creatures. They are the most common classification of Koopa. They come in multiple colors, including, green, red, blue and yellow. They first walked on four legs, but in later games they have both hands and feet. Their shells may be used as projectiles, which have become a fixture in all Mario Kart games. The Paper Mario series introduces friendly Koopa Troopas.

Only 2 pages, but some pieces might be a bit confusing. If you run on Windows, be sure to open the PDO file with Pepakura. If you don't have this, just rely on the template and connect tabs to the closest face on the template.

Fire Flower

A Fire Flower is one of the many powerup items in the Mario series that first appeared in the Nintendo Entertainment System game Super Mario Bros.. This powerup can be found in a ? Block if Mario or Luigi is in his Super Mario or Super Luigi form. When obtained, the plumber can hurl out fireballs from their hands that can defeat many enemies during gameplay. This powerup later appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3, and Super Mario World with their different appearances but with the same function. (Info from Super Mario Wiki)

Beta Key

Beta Elements are components of a video game that, for whatever reason, are removed or altered before that game is released. This is one of those Beta components: A key!

In Super Mario 64, it's hidden inside big Boo. In the final game, Big Boo holds a PowerStar. It looks a bit like the Bowser Key, although it doesn't have any horns. Enjoy!

Goombas (also known as Little Goombas, in Japan as Kuribō – roughly translated as "chestnut people") are one of the major species of Mushroom World, and are among Mario's most persistent foes. They first appeared in the game Super Mario Bros., and have been a common enemy ever since.

Well... 8-bit should not give you too much trouble. Just glue this thing one tab at a time and you'll have your very own Goomba in no-time.

JustMan Mario themed

JustMan is a papertoy Hako-like design made by HX ( Aka Zakane ). Zakane noted me about the fact that he released a cute little Mario-themed JustMan. Even though he only uses MS paint, it's still pretty detailed (for pixel-art, that is ;) )
So if you like an easy craft but still want it Mario themed, you might as well make this cute little JustMan!

Mario Party item pack

Because of my lack of updating, I decided to do a double post today. Here are some items from the game Mario Party 1 on the N64. Many people consider Mario Party 1 to be the best mario party, even though some mini-games would really mess up your mini-joystick on the controller.

Mario Party is a video game based on a board game, and the first of the expansive Mario Party series. Players choose one of six characters and move around the board. As they go around, they collect coins and various other items that can help them or hinder others in their quest to collect Stars. Twenty coins are required to buy a star.

These are all fairly easy models, and are great for all new papercrafters. However, if you'd like to make your own Mario Party boardgame (or if you just happen to love the game) these small crafts will look great in your collection :)

Have fun!

! panel & Blue Coin block

Oh my oh my, it's almost been a week since I last updated. I could apologize for this every time, but I don't think that would make things better now, would it :P .

Anyway, let's start off with the ! panel.
This panel activated some event when stepped on. Most of the time you had a time limit to achieve your goal, i.e. getting a star. If you didn't make it in time, you had to groundpound the panel again.

Download here

Coin Block
When a Blue Coin block is groundpounded, blue coins will appear for a short period of time. You'll have one chance to get them all within the time limit. The block will not raise again if you fail to get all the coins in time, unless you exit the level and then return.

Download here

Both designs by Mastermind777 He also posted quite some other models on his PaperMario block. You might want to take a peek if you're interested. Sooner or later they will be posted here too for archive purposes

Cannon

Take Cover! It's a Human Cannon! Well, if you think Mario is human, that is...

A Cannon is an item in Super Mario 64. To use the Cannon, Mario had to talk to a Bob-omb Buddy, who would activate it. The Cannon helped him get blasted off to other places.

Just an easy one-pager. You probably want to do the inside of the canon first before building the outside. Don't put the tabs on top of the paper like in the picture, but put them underneath it, so that they won't show.

Paper Mario Automata

Well, this is a first-timer on NP. An Automata! When you rotate the lever, Mario will jump up and a coin will come out of the box! Awesome!

This great piece of enginering is, as designer ddi7i4d puts it, "more a 'tech demo' than a real model, to test if it works (it does, btw^^)" so we can probably expect more of these in the future!

The craft might look complicated with all that mechanisms, but it shouldn't give you any big problems :)

Yoshi Egg

Brandon says, "Recognize this? It's where Baby Yoshis come from! Yoshis come in a variety of colors, and also have a rainbow of eggs."

In most games featuring Yoshis, Yoshi Eggs are involved. Yoshis are known for being capable of laying eggs at will, sometimes with Yoshis or items inside.

The download file contains 7 different egg colors to choose from.

UPDATE: (02/11/2009) The PDF files have been updated to contain all 7 colors both for the lined and unlined versions. Just print the page with the color you want.

Blue Shell

*sigh* no words can describe for how sorry I am that I haven't been posting much lately. Luckily, the Paperpokes team is helping me out right now by creating some super-duper awesome Nintendo crafts for you all. So stay tuned! For all you /po/ ers out there: The Samus Helmet is being built now. (MAJOR SPOILER! LOL)

Anyway, Let's get back to Papercrafting business!

What's that? Is that a Blue Shell? You bet ya it is!

The flying versions of these are called Winged Spiny Shells. After firing one, it flies over the course, homing on the current contestant in first place. After the shell reaches its destination, it will hover for a brief moment over its target, then smash into the ground, giving off a massive shock wave causing the target and anyone near him to bounce around out of control. Winged Spiny Shells nearly always hit, however, they do not actually aid the user unless it is a close race because one won't gain any places because of it. Spiky Shells can aid in getting places because they will hit all players along the center of the track before it reaches its destination.

Please don't go around throwing this recklessly, will ya?

Millenium Star

Well, after 3 days without crafts (which I apologize for), it's time for something new! The Millenium Star!

The Millennium Star is the name of two known star entities, one false and one who is the real. They both appeared in Mario Party 3.

The first Millennium Star is a silver, mustachioed star who will grant the wish of any player who passes his test. The Millennium Star fell on Peach's Garden while Mario and his friends were resting. Mario and his friends argued about who would get the star, which resulted in Lakitu coming and suggesting that they have a contest to see who get the star.

So for all you fans of Mario Party 3, go download and build this thing!

Bookend

Here's another awesome craft from Kaboom: a Bookend from Super Mario 64!

A Bookend is a large book with sharp teeth that comes out of book shelves and flies toward Mario. The green books disappear if they hit anything, including Mario. They are found in Big Boo's Haunt in the game Super Mario 64.

It often only comes out if Mario gets too close to it, and it gets faster as it gets closer to Mario. If Mario can jump on the book, it will release a Blue Coin. If Mario is hit by a Bookend, he loses two life points.

Bowser

It's time for a good Mario craft again! It's time for Bowser!

Bowser is Mario's archnemesis. He is the leader and most powerful of the turtle-like Koopa race. Although Bowser has allied with Mario in a few games,[1] he is considered an antagonist due to his ambition to kidnap Princess Peach and conquer the Mushroom Kingdom.

It's strange that we haven't seen this papercraft before. Bowser is quite the character in the Mario series, and favorite for a lot of people. Now you can finaly paperize this bossy creature! Although it looks like there are a lot of pages, the pieces have been spread out alot, so there aren't too many pieces

8-bit Lakitu

This model is from the forums:

Lakitus are bespectacled Koopas who ride clouds through the skies. Though Lakitus have become a recognizable trait of the Mario series, they have suffered neglect in common appearances per game and seem especially rare in other forms of Mario-related media. Lakitus are best known for tossing Spinies or similar enemy characters down to the player below.

A Big Bully is a large Bully that appears in the games Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS. Like their smaller counterparts, Big Bullies resembles large black spheres with yellow horns and green shoes. They resemble large Bob-ombs.

This is basically just a recolor of the Kirby papercraft, with horns added. But to be honest, this recolor looks more like a Big Bully then the original looked like Kirby ;) Fairly easy model, just make sure that you curl the horns a bit before starting to assemble those.

Bee Mario

Bee Mario is a form Mario took after collecting a Bee Mushroom, which is first found in the Honeyhive Galaxy, in Super Mario Galaxy. When Mario takes this form his hat changes to better resemble a helmet with antennas and his overalls become yellow with stripes and he will grow a stinger and small wings, which allow Mario to take flight in a similar manner to a bee for a short time (however Mario sacrifices all of his jumping skills). Mario will also be able to climb honeycombs and walk on flower petals and clouds. Mario will lose this form by taking damage or by touching water. By collecting coins in mid-flight, Bee Mario's fly gauge will slightly refill.

Unagi Eel

Unagi the Eel is a huge Unagi found in Super Mario 64 and its remake, Super Mario 64 DS. Mario or his friends can lure him out of his sunken ship home in Jolly Roger Bay by swimming near and provoking him to attack. After about attempted three bites, he will leave the ship, allowing Mario and his friends to enter it via the ship's window. Once inside and he opens the chests in the correct order, the ship will surface, causing the water inside the ship to drain, allowing for Mario to get the Power Star.

Shy Guy

The Shy Guy has arrived!

Shy Guy are small masked beings that appear in various colors. No one has seen their face, so when their masks get knocked off, they live up to their name by instantly retreating. In Luigi's Mansion, a ghost similar in appearance to them showed their face(shadowed, with yellow eyes) when their masks were removed. They have a wide variety of variations that range from just walking on stilts to piloting submarines.
