Paper Mario: DigiTrip

Paper Mario: DigiTrip is an action role-playing game (RPG) made in 2007 by FunLantern Studios for the Wii. It is the third installment of Paper Mario (in an alternate universe) and the first Mario game to be released on the Wii. The game follows Mario (or Luigi) as they team up with Mimi from MushBuy as they both travel inside the ShroomWire to stop Count Bleck from infecting the digital and real world.
== Plot ==
In this game, Princess Peach has announced ShroomWire, a new computer system inspired by the internet, getting help from Francis, the recently-hired IT technician. Everything's fine until 1 year later, when during the 1st anniversary of ShroomWire, a villainous virus named Count Bleck kidnaps Peach and plans to infect her, make her his wife, and spread his virus to both the digital and real world! He also takes Paper Mario after a quick fight to a random website, far away from his current location.
PM ends up at MushBuy (a parody of eBay), where he meets the website's mascot Mimi. She explains that Count Bleck plans to infect Peach with a special USB drive known as the Bleck Infector. She then agrees to help Paper Mario, seeing as she actually sold some items to Count Bleck, not knowing who he was at first. Luckily, she was able to get details about Count Bleck's plan: he plans to send his V-Team, a team of different viruses, to infect different worlds to get the materials needed for his wedding with Peach. She also says she is working on a device known as a Bleck Blocker that will defeat Bleck once and for all, but they need materials from the worlds Bleck plans to invade. Mimi joins Paper Mario, and the two take a ride on a Cursair (A ship shaped like a Internet cursor) to the sites, defeating the V-Team via powers inspired by the internet (Copy, Cut, Paste, Caps Lock and more!). At the final confrontation with Count Bleck, he is defeated seemingly very easily, and Paper Mario and Peach reunite… until they are trapped and it is revealed Count Bleck is Mimi! She plans to use the Bleck Blocker/Infector to spread her website's influence far and wide, making sure everyone buys MushBuy products, and also plans to infect everyone in the Mushroom Kingdom once she's done, and move on to infect the universe! She tries to blast Paper Mario & Peach, but Francis gets in the way and becomes Mr. Click, a powerful version of himself with all the powers of the internet! A final fight with Dark Francis and Mimi (after sucking all of Dark Francis' power) ensues, and PM emerges victorious! Mimi is deleted, Francis becomes normal, and all's right with the Mushroom Kingdom. 
== Worlds ==
FungiFlix - (a parody of Netflix/movie streaming services reminiscent of a perpetual 30s/40s Hollywood. Quirk: "15 minutes of fame goes a long way in FungiFlix!" Time moves a lot faster here.) Count Bleck plans to get a new costume there, so PM & Mimi go to check it out. There, they pretend to be a comedic duo (ala Laurel & Hardy and Abbott & Costello) in order to get close to a V-Team member. You control Mario as you help create the sets as you and Mimi make several great comedic shorts and films together, piquing the V-Team member's interest to do a film with you. The final fight with said member takes place during a filming of a semi-improvised movie, with the director thinking it's all an act. Before PM & Mimi leave, they do a live show ending in a dance (think the ending to Stan & Ollie). A bonus feature of the game is after completing it, you can go watch the movies you & Mimi made. The occupants of FungiFlix never find out the truth, so they treat you & Mimi as the website's greatest comedic duo.
== DigiMoves ==
Copy - (Makes up to 5 clones of yourself to deliver 5x the damage!)
Cut - (removes them, but can only be used when the enemy has 50% health or less. Doing it only cuts 15% of health.)
Paste - (Paste any item in your surroundings on your enemies.)
Caps Lock - (Makes yourself bigger for a turn, dealing 2x the damage.)
== Notes ==
On the way to the first website, Mimi explains she has dreams of becoming an actor since she likes to change herself to fit the customer's preferences. She also says she is a great impressionist, leading to very great alter-egos whenever paired with Mario, and a hint that she is Count Bleck. She will usually be seen owning a shop, dressed in a suit evoking the themes of the world visited, where you can either buy trinkets from her or ask to get a weapon upgraded. In some worlds however, she does tag along.
