''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' brings over all the core mechanics of the Nintendo 64 original, with the absence of the [[Spin Dash]] being the most notable exception in the overworld. All other moves return, as well as the party member system, and once again partners can be used outside of battle to overcome obstacles and reach items from a distance. Several partners have the same abilities to ones seen in ''Paper Mario'', like [[Koops]] being the counterpart of [[Kooper]]. | ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' brings over all the core mechanics of the Nintendo 64 original, with the absence of the [[Spin Dash]] being the most notable exception in the overworld.

''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' features a turn-based battle system. A normal battle is triggered when Mario touches an enemy in the overworld. Mario's party goes first every turn, being allowed two consecutive actions — one by Mario and one by the active partner. The order can be switched with {{button|gcn|y}}; this also causes the first one to be in front, and thus more likely to be the target of the enemies later in the turn. Mario or his partner can perform an extra [[First Strike]] if they trigger the battle by attacking the enemy; conversely, the enemy can also attack Mario first and trigger the inverse situation. | |||

The player is given the following actions to choose from: | |||
*'''Attack:''' The character's available moves. For Mario, this action is split into '''Jump''' and '''Hammer''' options. | |||
*'''Items:''' Mario or his partner can use an item from Mario's inventory. | |||
*'''Special:''' Exclusive to Mario, the selection of [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Crystal Stars|special moves]], which use [[Star Power]]. | |||
*'''Tactics:''' An assortment of non-offensive actions. | |||
**'''Swap partner:''' Changes the active party member. | |||
**'''[[Appeal]]:''' The character poses for the audience to recover a greater amount of Star Power | |||
**'''Defend:''' Increases the character's defense for the remainder of the turn. | |||
**'''Run away:''' If successful, lets Mario flee from battle. It cannot be used in most boss battles. | |||
**'''Charge:''' Increases the character's attack power for the next turn. It is only available when certain badges are equipped. | |||
Battles take place on a [[Stage (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|stage]]. Sometimes the impact of an attack causes props to fall (damaging all characters on stage and possibly making them [[dizzy]]), while devices such as fire nozzles and falling objects are triggered at random times. The audience helps Mario gain Star Power and may throw him useful items or pelt Mario and his partners with garbage (which they can prevent by pressing {{button|gcn|x}} to attack the audience member). Lastly, some bosses even exploit the audience for their own benefit (for example, [[Hooktail]] will eventually eat some of the audience members to regain 10 HP, which causes all the other spectators to flee, therefore making it impossible to gain any Star Power). | |||
