'''Koopa Village''' is a small village in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' that is home to [[Koopa Troopa|Koopas]] and some [[Bob-omb]]s, the latter of which escaped the [[Koopa Bros. Fortress]]. It is near a hill on [[Pleasant Path]]. As is hinted by [[Merlon]] from the prologue, [[Mario]] and [[Goombario]] are required to go here to help [[Kooper]] so he can join the party, because Mario has to use him to activate a switch in [[Pleasant Path]]. When they arrive, however, they find that [[Fuzzy|Fuzzies]] are attacking the town, and they can optionally help out some of the Koopas who had [[Unshelled Koopa Troopa|lost their shells]] to the Fuzzy menaces. The pair also meet [[Kooper]], a Koopa with a blue shell who eventually becomes Mario's second party member. A Fuzzy stole [[Kooper's Shell|his shell]] and he asks Mario to get it back. Once Mario retrieves it, Kooper joins the party. After he helps Kooper defeat the [[Fuzzy|Fuzzies]], they flee, and several [[Bob-omb]]s move in. After Kooper joins, a [[Star Piece (Paper Mario series)|Star Piece]] is accessible on a brick in the eastern part of Koopa Village. There is also a Star Piece hidden under a panel to the left of a group of Bob-ombs in the western area. [[Koopa Koot]], the elder of the village, is an old, senile Koopa who asks people for favors often, which has given him a bad reputation. However, he gives out rewards for completing his favors.

Koopa Village is a village mainly consisting of grassland, with a row of six houses in the northern side, all of which look like [[Koopa Shell|Koopa shells]]; most of them feature island-based décor. From west to east, they are: a [[Toad House]] run by [[Mort T.]], [[Koopa's Shop]], a house that resembles a blue shell, [[Kolorado]]'s house, [[Kooper]]'s house, and [[Koopa Koot]]'s house. Bushes can be found in the southern part of the village. There is also a tree; the Bob-ombs relax in its shadow. [[Turtley Leaf|Koopa Leaves]] can be found in some of the bushes. Behind [[Kooper]]'s house is a path to a forest, which Mario visits on his quest to retrieve Kooper's shell.

The house that looks like a blue shell is home to a relaxed Koopa who lies in his hammock all day listening to the radio. On the radio are three stations: one called "Golden Oldies Station," which plays a direct cover of the credits theme from ''[[Super Mario World]]''; another called "Island Sounds Station," playing an original song; the "Hot Hits Music Station," which plays [[Pop Diva]]'s song after she is given the [[Lyrics]] and the [[Melody (item)|Melody]]; and an Information Station that hosts trading events. In these events, Mario can participate by bringing certain items to [[Trading Event Toad|a pink Toad]] in certain areas across the Mushroom Kingdom, for which he will be rewarded (often with items more valuable than the ones traded).

In addition to the items listed below, [[Koopa's Shop]] has several items on sale. [[Koopa Koot]] has 15 Star Pieces and gives them in threes if Mario does favors for him. [[Kolorado]] also has two Star Pieces that can be given to Mario if a letter for him and the [[Artifact]] are delivered by [[Parakarry]] outside [[Dry Dry Desert (Paper Mario)|Dry Dry Desert]] or [[Mt. Lavalava]].
