i thought old paper mario stuff was Verboten since sticker star, very interesting

Yeah, that's definitely not the case.

Appearing in game is at least (outside of Smash trophies/spirits and stuff)

This counter-example immediately came to mind.

That’s Peach unless I’m missing something

Yeah, Peach from PM64, PM: TTYD, & SPM.

I meant the PM original characters like Goombella (and anything else that breaks the “mandates”), not anything from the games period. By that logic Mario couldn’t even be in his own game because he uses his TTYD design with a white outline and has a hammer. Lol

I mean, the designs did change between the old games and the newer ones. Anyway, Admiral Bobbery got referenced in dialogue in this same ship.

Yeah, it seems that mentioning the old characters is fine just not showing them in person

The english versions added those references in sticker star and origami king as they are noware in the japanese text.

Was just pointing that out that its something that was not in there originally. Old paper mario stuff was referenced in english animal crossings as well that were made after sticker star came out. Theres nothing saying you can/cant reference them but the original devs never have.
