Mascom International stocks the Paper Mario The Origami King at KSh 8,000 as a physical Nintendo Switch game card, brand new and sealed in its retail case. Released by Nintendo in July 2020, Paper Mario The Origami King is a single-player action adventure in which Mario, drawn as flat paper, sets out to free his world from an origami army. The whole game is on the card, ready to play out of the box. You can buy Paper Mario The Origami King at our store in the Old Mutual Building, First Floor, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Designed for solo players who want a long, relaxed adventure, the Paper Mario The Origami King handles puzzle lovers, children learning to read and adults winding down after work. Many popular Switch games lean on online play, which costs a membership and depends on a steady connection. This game asks for neither, because every hour of it runs offline. Parents in Kisumu and Eldoret tell us they like a game with gentle humour and no online chat. Commuters stuck in Thika Road traffic can carry on in handheld mode, picking up exactly where they left off.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that list games without saying what they need, Mascom International tells you plainly that this one needs no subscription and no internet. At Mascom International, we're seeing steady demand for Nintendo games that a whole family can take turns on, and Paper Mario The Origami King fits that wish well. Its ring-shaped battle puzzles feel different from any Mario platformer, so it suits buyers who already own Super Mario titles. Walk into our Kimathi Street store to see the sealed case, or order on WhatsApp and pay when it arrives.
Common Questions About Paper Mario The Origami King
How much is Paper Mario The Origami King in Kenya?
Paper Mario The Origami King costs KSh 8,000 at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD, brand new and sealed as a physical Nintendo Switch game card. The price includes the card in its retail case, a 6-month warranty on the card and pay-on-arrival delivery across all 47 counties. No subscription is needed to play, so KSh 8,000 is the full cost of the game itself. You can pay with M-Pesa on delivery or in cash at our store.
Is Paper Mario The Origami King a single-player game?
Yes, Paper Mario The Origami King is for one player on one console, with no local or online multiplayer. Nintendo lists it as a single-player game playable in TV, tabletop and handheld modes. That makes it a strong fit for buyers who play alone or share a console by taking turns. Each family member can keep a separate save under their own user profile, so a younger child's progress never overwrites a parent's. Mascom International recommends it to buyers in Kenya whose household owns a single Switch.
Paper Mario The Origami King or Paper Mario The Thousand-Year Door: which should you choose?
Paper Mario The Origami King suits players who enjoy puzzles inside battles, while The Thousand-Year Door suits fans of classic turn-based role-playing. The Thousand-Year Door is a Switch remake of a 2004 GameCube adventure, built around a team of partner characters who fight beside Mario. The Origami King gives Mario one main partner, Olivia, and turns each fight into a ring-sliding puzzle. Pick The Origami King for an adventure made for Switch, or The Thousand-Year Door if you loved older games. Ask us on WhatsApp whether The Thousand-Year Door is currently in stock.
How does the battle system work in Paper Mario The Origami King?
Battles in Paper Mario The Origami King take place on a ring-shaped arena that you slide and spin to line up enemies. Grouping foes correctly earns a damage bonus, but you only get a limited number of moves and a timer, which coins can extend. Hammers and boots hit the lined-up enemies, and extra versions eventually break. Boss fights reverse the idea: Mario sits on the outside and works his way inward toward the boss's weak points. Accessories bought in shops add extra help when a fight feels hard.
Can you play Paper Mario The Origami King during a KPLC power cut in Kenya?
Yes, Paper Mario The Origami King runs fully offline, so a KPLC power cut only matters for how long the console battery lasts in handheld mode. No Safaricom, Airtel or fibre connection is needed at any point in the adventure. With a Nintendo Switch Online membership, the game also supports Save Data Cloud backup, which protects your progress if a console is lost. Connect over home Wi-Fi every few days so that backup stays current. Keep a power bank handy during long outages, since a USB-C power bank can top up the console.
Is Paper Mario The Origami King suitable for children?
Paper Mario The Origami King carries a PEGI 7 rating, with content descriptors for violence and fear. The violence is cartoon paper-on-paper combat, and some boss encounters may feel spooky for players under seven. Reading matters, since the story is told through on-screen text, so children who read comfortably get the most from it. Younger siblings can still enjoy watching or helping with the ring puzzles while an older child or parent holds the controller.
Does Paper Mario The Origami King work on Nintendo Switch 2?
Nintendo says that most Nintendo Switch games run on Nintendo Switch 2, and original Switch game cards go into the Switch 2 card slot. Since a few titles differ in behaviour on the later console, send us a WhatsApp message before buying for a Switch 2 and we will confirm details for Paper Mario The Origami King. The card plays on the standard Switch, the Switch OLED and the Switch Lite in every mode that console supports.
Who should buy Paper Mario The Origami King and who should skip it?
Paper Mario The Origami King suits solo players, families who take turns, and anyone who likes humour, exploration and puzzle battles without paying for online access. Skip it if you want to compete or cooperate with friends, because it has no multiplayer of any kind. Splatoon 3, also in stock at Mascom International, serves group players far better with matches for two to eight people. Skip it too if you prefer fast platform jumping over story and puzzles, as the pace here is deliberate and text-heavy.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Gameplay
- Genre — action adventure with role-playing elements, mixing exploration, light puzzles and turn-based ring battles across a paper-craft world.
- Ring battles — slide and spin rings to line up Folded Soldiers within a move limit and timer for bonus damage.
- Boss fights — the ring logic flips, and Mario moves inward from the edge toward the boss's exposed weak points.
- 1,000-Fold Arms — Magic Circles unlock long folding arms that peel, tear and pull at distant parts of the scenery.
- Confetti — scatter it to patch holes torn in the landscape, a simple task that also earns rewards.
- Rescuing Toads — find folded and hidden Toads, who return to Toad Town and help restore it as you go.
- Equipment — extra Hammers and Boots hit harder but break with use, while Accessories give boosts in battle and exploration.
Compatibility and Play Modes
- Consoles — standard Nintendo Switch, Switch OLED and Switch Lite; the Lite plays in handheld mode only.
- Play modes — TV, tabletop and handheld, so one save moves from the television to the bedroom without fuss.
- Nintendo Switch 2 — Nintendo says most Switch games run on Switch 2; confirm this title with us on WhatsApp.
- Players — one player only, with no local wireless or online multiplayer modes.
- Internet — not required for any part of the game, which keeps running costs at zero after purchase.
- Save Data Cloud — supported with a Nintendo Switch Online membership, giving an off-console copy of your progress.
- Controls — standard buttons and sticks, so a Switch Lite or a single pair of Joy-Con plays it comfortably.
Build and Game Card Format
- Physical game card — the complete adventure runs from the card, with no base-game download before you start.
- Download edition size — Nintendo lists 6.5GB for the digital version, space the card saves on your console.
- Shareable — a card can be passed to a cousin's Switch for a weekend or resold later, unlike a digital copy.
- Sealed retail case — factory sealed, with the seal shown to you at our Kimathi Street counter before payment.
- Age rating — PEGI 7, with descriptors for violence and fear, meaning cartoon combat and a few spooky moments.
- Release date — Nintendo released the game on 17 July 2020 for all Nintendo Switch models.

Inclusions and Story Setup
- Inside the case — one Paper Mario The Origami King game card for the slot on top of the console.
- Main partner — Olivia, the origami sister of the villain King Olly, travels with Mario throughout the adventure.
- Temporary allies — other characters join for stretches of the story and sometimes help during battles.
- Toad support — Toads you have rescued can be summoned to help in battle, making later fights easier.
- Online membership — not needed to play; only Save Data Cloud backup uses Nintendo Switch Online.
- Controllers — not included; Joy-Con, the Pro Controller and the Switch Lite's built-in controls all work.
