Top: Paper Mario: The Origami King contains an unused setting for text to be displayed at a 90° angle, demonstrated here in-engine.

Bottom: the game often uses text gimmicks for characters who are in nonstandard states. As such, it is possible that this was intended to be a text gimmick for characters who for some reason or another, are arranged perpendicularly to Mario while speaking. This is a mock-up of what such a usage of this text effect could have looked like.
