Customer Ratings & Reviews

Finally I have something to play besides Breath of the wild. Bought this and Stardew Valley and I have not been disappointed. This mario felt very much like super mario 64 to me. I loved every minute of it. Still trying to get all the stars but its fun not tedious.

I mean i dont even know what to say that hasn’t already been said. One of Nintendo’s all time greats

The controls are much more responsive than the last few titles, so much that you might be caught off guard on a narrow ledge and fall to your doom. That takes a little bit to get used to, but once you do, you'll be flying around like a pro. The 8-Bit sections are a treat, especially the music for them. There's tons of things hidden pretty much everywhere. Amiibo functionality: OPTIONAL. The Wedding Series; aside the costume unlocks, Bowser is the useful one, pointing out the direction of the Purple Coins with a big glowing circle. You can use it as much as you want, if that's something you'd like. Peach amiibo gives health. Again, virtually unlimited. amiibo can be used once you unlock the Uncle Amiibo for that world. non Wedding Series are used as a hint assist system, on top of Blue Toad & the hint Talkatoo, and a few have costume unlocks, too. You'll want a Waluigi amiibo. Trust me.

This is, hands down, one of the most entertaining games I’ve ever played. There’s some difficult areas that take me back to Super Mario Sunshine rage quits lol, but I couldn’t be happier. Wide range of ease and difficulty for any player. Highly recommend this game!

Super Mario Odyssey is one of the best games of the year and one of the best Mario games. As a lifelong Mario fan, I really appreciated all the creativity and details in this game. Controls are incredibly responsive and intuitive. This game is just a joy to play.

This game is one of the best Mario games I have every played! Every world is beautifully crafted and it is fun to explore each world to find every secret. Nintendo has once again outdid themselves. Even after you "beat" the game, there is still so much more to do!

If your still on the fence about whether or not to buy this game or a switch in general. It’s time to get off. This game time and time again has surprised me with its depth and ability to pack vintage Mario aspects into a modern open world rpg. Well worth the buy!

Fun game and mechanics. Enjoyed it enough that I'm getting a copy for my niece.

I could go on for days about Mario Odyssey, but the only thing that you need to know is that it is possibly the greatest platforming game of all time. If you remember the feeling you got when you first started playing Mario 64 (if you're as old as I am) then you should know that you will get that seem feeling in the first 30 minutes of Odyssey. The game never stops changing - with the ability to transform into your enemies through your hat (Cappy), every kingdom feels like an entirely new game with new gameplay mechanics. The pick up and play style of the Switch combined with portability means that any time you want to go searching for one the EIGHT HUNDRED moons in the game, you can turn it on and spend 15 minutes collecting and then go right back to what you were doing. This is something that just has to be experienced, and you will be entranced, captivated, and amazed up until the very end.

We enjoy this game as a family. It’s fun to watch others play as well. Will definitely be getting more controllers in the near future to play

Blast from the past... Great game that brought me back to the good ole days of Mario Sunshine on the Gamecube. Anyone can play and it's super chill. Highly recommend it to anyone who likes a laid back game.

love this game ive always been a mario fan and played all of the mario games

I have to be honest: The last Super Mario game I really played were Super Mario 64. But this game (I just played 2.5 hours) already convinced me and I am dying to get back home from work and continue playing this masterpiece. It feels like you have been thrown back in time and taking your first steps in Super Mario 64. Okay...it could be possible that there is a little bit of nostalgia that pushes this game from a 9 to a 10. Because it really has its little weak points. For example the controls are sometimes mildly imprecise and circuitous when capturing a bullet. You have to turn the camera before controlling the bullet without problems. But this is some little detail that is forgotten as soon as you jump around the next corner and throw Cappy to fight the next enemies. Long story short: I'm already in love with this game and looking forward to some awesome hours of gameplay.

It has been a few years since I played a Mario game and I have been very pleased with this. Our whole family enjoys it and can play while still being challenged (age range 6-36 years). Controls are easy and once you are used to the 3D view its easy to navigate.

For those who grew up loving Super Mario 64 on Nintendo 64 and Super Mario Sunshine on GameCube, you will love this game. It easily brings you back to those games with huge open worlds, tons of collectibles and many, many hours of fun. This is a must have game!

I'm a busy guy with very little time for games, which is why I love this one. I can turn it on and off whenever I have a few minutes and don't feel so lost that I can't play. Very fun distraction, looks and plays great.

This game is unique and very fun. I havent played a mario game like this since super mario sunshine. I highly recommend this game if you are looking for something new and fun.

There are a few Mario games that I haven’t been a huge fan of, but I absolutely love this game. It looks great, controls are easy (I use the buttons and not so much the movement), and I love the retro elements that are included in the game. Just a ton of fun!

Another great Mario game from Nintendo. It doesn't break any new ground but being able to take an HD Mario game on the go is worth it. The main quest is kind of short. It can probably be beat in 8-10 hours. However afterwards there are still hundreds of item to collect and at least one other place to unlock. You only need about 20% of the Power Moons to finish the game, but there are hundreds left to collect after the main story finishes. If that isn't something you like, then decide if a short, portable, Mario game with terrific graphics and top notch controls is worth it.

It's new-age open world Mario in the vein of Mario 64 and Sunshine. Do you really need a review? I'm glad Breath of the Wild won GoTY but this game is an INCREDIBLY close second. I haven't had this much fun simply controlling a character in a very long time.
