'''Paper Luigi''' is a paper incarnation of [[Luigi]] based on his appearance in the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' series that came out of [[Paper Mario book|a magical book]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''. Paper Luigi is an independent character from Luigi and appears only after the player unlocks the [[Music Player]] after beating [[Shiny RoboBowser]], though he is mentioned by [[Starlow]] at the beginning of the game when Paper Mario first meets Mario and Luigi, and confuses Luigi with Paper Luigi. A [[Paper Toad]] in [[Peach’s Castle]] also mentions him after being rescued. In the Music Player menu, he appears to sleep in [[Twinsy Tropics]] while [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], and [[Paper Mario (character)|Paper Mario]] are on their adventure.

When playing certain songs in the [[Music Player]], Paper Luigi has different reactions: when one plays a song relating to [[Princess Peach]], hearts begin to appear as he listens to the song. When a song related to [[Bowser]] plays, he is shown to sweat in fear.

Paper Luigi was planned to be playable in ''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam'' but was taken out because the team thought it would be too difficult to control four separate characters.<ref>Akira Otani (February 5, 2016).[https://web.archive.org/web/20160915010411/https://miiverse.nintendo.net/replies/AYMHAAACAAADVHk4lrtoHA Otani's response during the Miiting on Paper Jam].
