Customer Ratings & Reviews

Our whole family enjoys playing this game! We can save our game progress and play from where we finished playing the game. There are 3 players in this home. Our ages vary, from 6 and up, a player will have tons of fun with each colorful board. Mario is a favorite in our household. If you like Mario give it a try ! We love it!

Mario Odyssey is not only the best Mario game to date but also best game on Switch....period! Levels are really nicely designed and the graphics look great (even in handheld mode). There are ton of places to explore and hidden items to find so this game will keep a player occupied for a long time. I would highly recommend this game to every Switch owner and if you don't own a Switch, buy it just to play this game.

Super Mario Odyssey for the Nintendo Switch is a must-play masterpiece. Its innovative "capture" mechanic, using Mario's hat Cappy to control enemies and objects, injects incredible creativity into gameplay and exploration. The diverse and vibrant kingdoms are packed with secrets and collectibles, encouraging you to explore every nook and cranny. While the sheer number of collectibles can feel a bit much at times, the core gameplay is polished, joyful, and constantly surprising. Odyssey is a triumphant reinvention of the 3D Mario formula and a delightful adventure from start to finish.

Super Mario Odyssey is a joyful masterpiece that redefines 3D platforming. Bursting with creativity, its vibrant kingdoms brim with clever challenges, hidden secrets, and delightful surprises. Mario’s new pal, Cappy, adds innovative mechanics, making every capture a blast. The visuals pop, the soundtrack soars, and the gameplay is pure, polished fun. A must-play for Switch owners!

I bought Super Mario Odyssey on the same day I bought my Nintendo Switch Console, it was actually the only game I had for the first few months. I think this is an amazing game, that is more than worth the money! I grew up playing Mario games, and this newest edition to the series is quite a bit different than the games that came before. It is most like the Galaxy series, but has a lot of short 2D sections that through back to the original game. Mario Odyssey isn't a 'true' Open-World game, but it really feels huge, and fun to explore, using a spaceship to travel between locations. A cool feature is the motion controls, which can be used when holding the joy-cons. But I also have enjoyed playing the game in the controller grip, but then you can't use your right hand to throw your cap. After completing the main story, there are a lot of more challenging things to go back and do, as well as an additional world, so it's easy to sink a lot of hours into. Also, graphics are beautiful!

Growing up I have been a devoted Nintendo fan, and I had my fair share of hours socked into Mario games. I can say without a doubt this game brings back the feeling of playing Mario 64, but with a new twist and new challenges. The game doesn't take long to beat. About 1-2 days if you breeze through it on the weekend, or about a good week & a half for us working folks. "Completionist" might take longer, due to the game wanting you to backtrack and explore other locations in the worlds. The game graphics are captivating and the colors are vibrant and refreshing. The motion controls bring a new concept that can not be compared to the wii or wii U games, which is a good thing considering the switch is trying to break from the mold. Overall, I thoroughly enjoy the game. I continue to go back to it and explore places and attempt to get tricky moons (that are not required to beat the game) and find little easter eggs that Nintendo snuck into the game to give that little extra TLC. This game is recommend for all levels (/expertise) and ages. This game gives an option for beginner players (be it kids or adults) for help and walk through, but it also rewards the devoted experts who can do without the help who can rethink the motion mechanics and reach platforms of negative space that have rewards at the top.

Mario Odyssey is a joy. This game has many moments that leave you smiling. Mario is one of the few titles that can do that; its charm is unlike any other and even after decades, it still succeeds to leave an everlasting impression. Gameplay is FUN. The most important characteristic of any game... it's simply fun. There are simple mechanics to learn with the introduction of Cappy, but as you progress in the game, you realize there are many variations and combos one can do to accomplish a set goal. The world of Odyssey is also spectacular and each kingdom has its own unique personality. The story.. if any.. is more or less the same.. save peach, but its more about the journey that makes this game of one the best if not the BEST in the series. Music is also wonderful and there are few tracks I revisit out of leisure. Collecting moons can sometimes be underwhelming but other times... when you figure out how to reach that elusive moon... you feel very accomplished and thrilled. The replay value is also great. there's a lot to do once you think you've finished the game... NOPE... still a whole lot of content to explore. That is what makes Nintendo great... they offer full, complete gaming experiences. if you own a switch, this is a MUST. BUY IT!

This is just such a blast to play. Nothing like a flagship Mario title to get you excited about playing a Nintendo console. I'm a little old school so I can remember getting the NES with the first Super Mario game, then Mario 64 and Galaxy for the Wii. This gives that same level of excitement!

I've played Mario Bros games since the very first Mario Bros. This game references every game and is the best open-world version!! It has everything for everyone!! My six year old can play on his own and can do enough to beat the game. My 12 year old has opened secret kingdoms, and I am still playing trying to get 100% completion!! It's amazing!!!

The game is very good. Fun 3D platform with plenty to do.

I love this game and how it combines not only a free world experience like Super Mario 64 but It has elements of old school 2D Nintendo Super Mario as well for a touch of nostalgia making it a game for newcomers and veterans of Mario to enjoy! Plenty of replayabilty due to the nearly countless Power Moons on each level to give an extra challenge to players even after completing the main story!

Mario’s latest adventure on the Nintendo Switch delivers vibrant worlds, tight controls, and charming gameplay. Its level design balances creativity and challenge, keeping players engaged from start to finish. With polished visuals, memorable music, and smooth performance, it captures the classic Mario magic while feeling fresh and fun for all ages.

Such a fun game. Good price. One of the best Mario games. If you’re deciding to get it or not, GET IT.

Easily the best Mario game yet! Brings back wonderful memories of Mario64. There's hours and hours of gameplay in this game, the worlds are big and creative. The first time you throw Cappy onto the T-Rex is so cool! It's so much fun and very addictive! Just get this game already! It's Mario, it's amazing!

I absolutely love the game looks great on the switch OLED. It is extremely fun and I was blown away when I found out you can have 2 players at once!

Amazing game! My daughter and absolutely love it! Best graphics and storyline!

Great Mario game. So much fun exploring around the open world. So much to explore and great attention to detail. Can have hours of fun and always a different experience every time you play!

This game is so fun! I've been enjoying playing with my six year old daughter - we haven't taken it out of the Switch since October. Great level designs, tight controls, all around a wonderful experience. Feels like Mario 64 in terms of being able to explore freely.

The game is great, the feeling of openess on each kingdom is great. The ability to jump and move is better than before. Though I'm unable to, several people have made jumps that are amazing, and even more amazing is Nintendo did not use negative possibility space. If you can get somewhere, there is likely a moon or coins there. The graphics are crisp and bright. Though there are some tricks to make certain areas look better than they are, for example in New Donk City, far away you will see huge crowds, but when you get up to them they are gone. But these things are basically nitpicks compared to how great the game is. The ability to capture enemies gives you a whole new way to play, and though most of the puzzles are unbelievably easy, but once you get past the "Story" and go back to get all over 900 moons, you are going to get challenges that are -HARD-, All in all this is easily a game could win GOTY.

Super Mario 64 translated an iconic 2D platformer into a 3D world and redefined what a Nintendo experience could be. Super Mario Odyssey takes that a step further, playing around with the concept of an open world (albeit less so than, say, Skyrim or Breath of the Wild) where Mario can discover power moons just in the course of messing around. Yes, there are mini-bosses to fight; yes, there are puzzles to solve and secrets to discover; but there have also been times when I've gone "I wonder what would happen if I..." and have been rewarded for it. Not because there's a puzzle to solve, but because Odyssey rewards exploration and experimentation in a way no Mario game I've previously played has. I've immensely enjoyed every Mario title since Super Mario World in 1990, so I don't say this idly: Odyssey is the most fun I've ever had with Mario.
