I don't like throwing around the term Masterpiece, yet Nintendo has pulled off what I see as two in the year of 2017, first with Legend of Zelda, and now with Super Mario Oddysey for the Switch. There aren't many games that cater to two very different levels of skill at the same time, but Oddysey has mechanics and level design that teach new gamers that are easy to learn, yet mixed in throughout the same levels, are methods of traversal for the likes of Speed Runners and hardcore Mario fans. The crazy thing is that nearly all of Marios moves, simple and advanced, are done using just two action buttons. The game is as beautiful and zany as it is fun. Join in and meet Mario's new pal Cappy, and save Peach from Bowser and his nefarious nuptuals. LOL

This is the perfect spiritual successor to Mario 64. Everything about this game is near flawless. The only thing I wish Nintendo added to it was a difficulty setting. Highly recommend to anyone who loves Mario games.

I waited until the last minute to order some items for a friend's birthday. I wasn't sure if they were going to arrive in time. The delivery was super fast, I was so relieved I got it before their birthday. Now, my friend can play this game worry-free knowing I have My Best Buy Membership coverage. Thanks again Best Buy, for another product delivery and coverage!
Btw, my friend loves the game!!

This game is amazing. If you own a switch, Buy this game. Mario’s hat added such a cool new element to the gameplay. It is awesome possessing other characters in the game. Controls feel similar to breath of the wild.

If you are a fan of 3d marios, you will love this game. A ton of collectibles and great environments. Boss battles are great too, but they often are over too early. This game really doesn't get challenging until you get to the end game after defeating Bowser.. However the main story is enjoyable, albeit easy. The end game is where the truly challenging platforming takes place as new worlds open up as you collect moons. However its still a moderate challenge compared to other platformers.

As usual super Mario is a blast to play! It's a really beautiful game with a fun story. Cappy and all the different outfits make it a great time to play by myself or with someone else if they want to control Cappy.

Great game. Super fun and exciting. It reminds me of Mario 64, it takes me back to those days. The soundtrack is awesome. You won’t be disappointed with this pick up. Love it!

I've never really been a huge Mario fan (don't dislike the games, just never felt the need to play them) and have never really played any of the 3D titles but I really enjoyed this game. It's a good combination of easy but fun platforming for the main progression and a ton of side and post-game exploration and challenging stuff to collect for folks that are into that. My only real gripe that tempted me to give it 4 stars is that chucks of what you can collect is double locked so you can't just clear each area as you have to go and need to go back once you've beaten the game to fully complete an area. That's probably a good thing for most people though and is more of a personal hangup so I don't think it's worth docking the game a star.

Earlier this year, we were blessed with Zelda: Breath of the Wild on Switch. It was an unbelievable take on one of favorite franchises and easily a game of the year nominee (I still play it regularly today). Never in my wildest dreams did I think that in the Switch's first year, I would be saying the same thing about Mario, another one of my favorite series.
This game is a masterpiece. It is so much fun, so well done, and provides some serious competition to Zelda in the GOTY race. Highly recommended to everyone.
Also, it is a game that is absolutely amazing to play both on your TV and in handheld mode. Some games I find more fun in one of those modes vs. the other, but Odyssey has been just as enjoyable either way you play it.

Completely worth the hype. A game that any Switch owner, or any gamer foe that matter, shouldn’t miss. New gameplay mechanics are a lot of fun and there is plenty to explore if you want to go off the linear path.

Feels like a combination of the exploration of 64/Sunshine with the creative level design of 3D World in a much larger space. Secrets to find everywhere. Mario controls excellently. Super fun. Highly recommended.

Where do I even begin with this game? This game is the perfection of what Nintendo has been doing great since Super Mario 64. My favorite game of all time was Super Mario 64 and I never thought it would ever be beaten, but then came Super Mario Odyssey. OH MY GOODNESS! Super Mario Odyssey was able to not dethrone, but come in a very close tie for me with Super Mario 64. Super Mario Odyssey is able to feel nostalgic with vibes of Super Mario 64, while still doing its own thing. This game is absolute perfection. If you are a fan of Nintendo, Mario, fun adventures, or just video games in general, then you absolutely must get this game! In my opinion, this game alone makes the Switch worth owning!
