Super Mario Odyssey Review (Nintendo Switch) (9.7)  by  

A new entry in the Super Mario series is upon is! We are just days away now from the glorious Super Mario Odyssey! Run, jump, and explore your way through plenty of 'Kingdoms' setup similarly to the great Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Sunshine! This is the Mario game everyone has been waiting for!


Check out Nintendo's now-famous Super Mario Odyssey 1:30~ long commercial!


And check out some of the glorious screens as well! Soon you'll be able to use the special mode found inside the game to pause the action at anytime for a photo, but you can also change the angle in anyway way also. Quite a neat feature.

I think back on this one so fondly. I think it’s majorly underrated, in a way. I know people love it and it sold a ton, but I almost feel like it’s not a game a ton of people talk about anymore. I need to play it again one day, but my memory puts it right behind Mario 64. It’s the only one of the 3D Marios that’s really come close to capturing a similar kind of magic.

Seven years later and this is still my fave Switch game.

Yeah, the co-cap mode is surprisingly decent for what it is. Obviously not as good as if both players could control their own character like Mario and Luigi or whoever, although I'm still unsure of the logistics for that in a full 3D game. I've also done a co-cap playthrough with my significant other and it was pretty fun, certainly a different experience than normal. Trying to coordinate things like cap jumps and captures and such can lead to some pretty hilarious moments! It's interesting how some things become easier and others, much, much more difficult...!

I need to replay this game. It's been long enough for me to completely forget all of the surprises!

I did 100% the new Astro Bot on PS5. It was a fun, solid game, with tons of care and attention to detail (and some camera niggles and annoying enemy attack patterns), but I do think that it ripped off a LOT of stuff from Mario. And the core 3D platforming mechanics were nowhere near as fun and expressive as those of Odyssey and Sunshine. It felt more like Galaxy, except with a hover nozzle.
