Descrizione Commenti dei lettori

In recent decades, new medias and the theatre have revealed numerous elements of contact and divergence analysed at a general level on several occasions, including some studies on the theatrical elements in videogames. The article examines the performative presence in the field of gaming focusing on a single case study: Paper Mario 2: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo 2004). For its explicit performative and meta-theatrical elements the game analysed in a certain sense breaks down the fiction, making it possible to effectively reflect on similarities and differences that are most often not immediately obvious. In a semiotic perspective, but not without descriptive traits, the analysis of Paper Mario 2 presents various insights into the value of interaction, reproducibility, the relationship between spectator and performer and performative gestures, as well as the paper element of the game and its affinity with toy theatres.
