Is Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door an exceptional game?

It does deviate from many other turn based RPGs in that attacks require timing and precision.

The one on the Switch is a remake. They changed some things.
One change that I don't like is that the Boggly Woods song seems to be entirely different now.
Many of my friends don't like how the character voices were changed but I'm mostly okay with that and even see it as something that might make the game a bit more accessible to vision impaired people (but only a bit since it's not fully voiced now).

I thought it was pretty good when I played the original, long ago.
I thought it was the best game of 2006 for me.
It came out 2 years before that but I played it in 2006.
The runners up for me were The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap,
followed by Super Mario 64 DS, & Animal Crossing: Wild World

It's somewhere in my top 20 most beloved favorite games... not sure where... haven't really thought about the exact placement beyond the top 5.
The N64 Paper Mario is actually my 5th favorite game - of all games that I played,
but most people prefer Thousand Year Door.

My mother used it to teach one of my siblings how to read, since we were interested in it.
I'm trying to convince my sister to use it to encourage her kids to read or learn how to read, and maybe we could play / read it together.
"Hall of the Thousand Year Door", "Twilight Trail", and "Tower of Riddles" are songs that I find preferable to listen to when studying, writing, designing, something - or otherwise doing some deep thought.
I've considered celebrating a holiday themed around the guy that comes out of the black box in TTYD.

Cool!

I know they have added a hint system or something but how was the difficulty of the original?

I tried it but I did not like it too much. I do not like jrpg games usually but I played the first Paper Mario on the Wii Visrtual Console and I liked it a lot more than Thousand years door. I have not played Thousand years door for long but it's because the first impression for me was not very good. There is a reason why I played the previous one a lot more. It was more fun and the art style was much better imo.
