The best 3D mario game that introduces several new and innovating mechanics

Its Mario of course its going to be fun. Gkids and grown ups thinks its fun.

Very fun. Looks amazing on the switch 2. Colors are very vibrant. Levels are all very entertaining

Lots of content, good story, and a pretty good game overall

I highly recommend it to any Mario fans as this is, perhaps, the best Mario game I've played so far. In many ways, it reminded me of Super Mario 64 and the joy it feels to explore every new world and see what secrets it has and what it offers. The main difference is that the worlds are much bigger and with far more possibilities due to that new skill of throwing your cap. Not to mention each world has multiple moons to collect (the equivalent of the stars of Super Mario 64). I loved the fact that this game has hours of gameplay: perhaps the main story is short; but there is a lot of additional content and a lot to do post-ending (unlocking new worlds, collecting all the moons, all the purple coins, buying all the items available at all the shops, breaking records for races/challenges, etc - some of which are surprisingly hard). I was playing this game with my partner; and found that not all the times there was a single solution to a puzzle or challenge: he would do things one way and I would do another way and both would work. At times, his method was easier to execute than mine or the other way around; which was actually a fascinating experience. Also, If you've played Mario games from the 8 bit/16 bit era, you'll definitely feel the nostalgia from the old times; as there are multiple moments in the game where there are throwbacks to these previous games. Finally, I can say that this game offers a very pleasant and solid platforming experience which I totally recommend to Mario fans and first-timers to Mario/platforming games.

Nintendo really is on fire this year with zelda and with odyssey. Odyssey plays so well and looks amazing. The controls are great. It's 3D with some 2D elements as well. Nintendo even rewards you for doing things differently. You wanna take a short cut or trying going to a section where your not suppose to? You can. There's so much freedom on how to get or do something. It's a disservice not getting this game

Borrowed this game from the library to see if it was worth buying. It sure is. Bought this for my grandson for a Christmas present. He's gonna love it.

A grand adventure with great cartoon graphic style perfect for Mario's platforming shenanigans. Cool lands to explore and lots to do. Love the ability to take over the body of foes to attack and work out specific puzzles. Recommended for any platformer lover and adventure game enthusiast. Also it's a core new Mario title so of course it's great with tight controls.

I have always been a huge fan of Super Mario 64. It absolutely changed gaming forever with its 3D graphics. The controls were tight, the music was awesome, and the levels were so much fun. Mario Odyssey took the formula of Mario 64 and cranked it up to 11. I haven't had this much fun playing a game in a very, very long time. Do you own a Switch? Buy this game. Don't own a Switch? Buy a Swtich, then buy this game!

This game can be very challenging but it’s definitely a fun game to play. The puzzles are fun to figure out and platforming is still there like the traditional Mario games. The scenery and graphics to each world are very creative.

Probably the best title I've yet to get for my original switch. I may be bias as I do love Mario games ;)

I've never experienced a Mario game (save for the originals), so dropping into this one with the intricate move-sets was intimidating to say the least. I kept playing and kept playing, eventually mastering the cap jump and dive jump...it's such a beautiful game with even better gameplay. I was blown away by the music, the level design, and the alternate paths to the story objectives. BUY THIS GAME!

For anyone who remembers the awe and wonder if playing Super Mario 64 years ago, this will bring all the nostalgia you could possibly handle. Precise controls, free camera control and a beautiful open world make this one of the best Mario games I've ever played. The wife and I have spent hours playing and there seems to be no end to the enjoyment in sight. Anyone who has a Nintendo Switch should pick this up.

I had been looking forward to this game since they announced the switch and all I can say is that it has met my expectations! It's so nice to be able to go around in a more open world like Super Mario Sunshine and 64. I love the cap gimmick and it's so fun to use. The graphics are beautiful with no frame rate issues. Being able to take it portable is fantastic. You won't stop smiling when playing his game!

Glad I got this game sale , been waiting for it and happy I got it on sale!

The game is extremely fun. Challenging but easy (is there such a thing???). Mixes new gameplay styles with old, very creative. One example is one moment you're in the 3D world, next you are in a 2D classic style on a wall (don’t worry, it’s not like you are constantly switching from 2D to 3D like in a previous game). Lots of fun activities, graphics are amazing, and collecting the different outfits for Mario to wear is ADDICTING!!!! Can be 2 player, but not in the way you’d expect. First player controls Mario, second controls his hat (the hat plays an important role in how the game is played). My 4.5 year old is still getting the hang of manipulating a controller but when he is controlling the hat it is much easier and he feels he is contributing. Overall extremely satisfied with the game. Honestly I bought this and Breath of the Wild at the same time. I expected BOTW to be incredible, and it is. Odyssey surprised me because I was expecting it to be good, but it far exceeded my expectations, and I got a little distracted from Zelda. Not going to lie... Last note is that it has great replay value. After you initially beat the game, there are still more things to do, more worlds to explore. I went after as many of the items as I could before moving on to the next world. I have to say I was pretty confident I had little left to do. Buuuuut.... once I beat the game, (it told me) there were sooooo many more items to get and things to do!

I was skeptical about this Mario game before playing it. Before being released it just had some stuff I didn't think was Mario. Well Nintendo does a nice job of making it feel like Mario. I love how the game feels small and big at the same time and has that Mario 64 feel to it with open levels. It's pretty much the same great gameplay you expect from a first party Nintendo game with some new twists.

This game is the perfect example of how wonderful Super Mario games can be! The game looks gorgeous, plays beautifully, and there's a lot of fun to be found. The game is massive in itself and it's really fun playing on TV and then taking it with you. I was hooked for a solid three weeks before finally finishing the game. This is the perfect family game as well. This is a must own title for the Switch!

This game is so much fun and is a must buy for anyone with a switch!

Runs great on switched 2. Doesn't take up too much internal storage space.
