    One of the best games ever made. Wow!
    I hope we will get a DLC or Mario Odyssey 2 very soon.

    Muito legal, divertido. Os mapas mudam bastante de um para o outro. Os marios em 3D são excelentes.

    I 100%'d this game a while ago, and I just love it to bits. not nearly as good as Breath Of The Wild obviously, but it is my favorite Mario game.

    You know you can expect high quality for a flagship Mario game, and this game is no different. It's a very polished experience with great visuals, soundtrack and gameplay (including coop gameplay).

    However, it's a bit too easy for my taste and personally I don't find any replayability whatsoever in this game which is a bit of a let down.

    This game is platform perfection because of the soundtrack, gameplay, and presentation.

    Perfection. Some people say it’s too easy, but the less difficult sections are countered by pull-out-your-hair sections that keep you in check, balanced by jaw-dropping sequences and evolving game mechanics. The most fun I’ve had with a game in 30 years.

    Este é o Mário 128, melhor jogo do Mário que já joguei, usa a tecnologia de Rumble HD e muito bem, a história é a mesma mas tem contradições que me faz jogar de novo o jogo, a gameplay é a melhor todas, só um chapéu muda toda a gameplay, este jogo é perfeito como foi o Mário 64. 10/10

    Fazia tempo que não jogava um Mario tão bom quanto esse, muito bem feito e eu amei, porém não precisa lançar ''Mario'' todo mês.

    Es uno de los mejores juegos de Mario que he jugado sin duda, lo tiene todo y el gameplay es maravilloso, me encanta como es que los saltos y diferentes técnicas en este juego funcionan, termine el juego ya hace un año y medio pero hasta ahora estoy haciendo esta recién porque lo volví a jugar, sin duda mi juego favorito de los últimos años, y en mi opinión el mejor juego de la Switch,Es uno de los mejores juegos de Mario que he jugado sin duda, lo tiene todo y el gameplay es maravilloso, me encanta como es que los saltos y diferentes técnicas en este juego funcionan, termine el juego ya hace un año y medio pero hasta ahora estoy haciendo esta recién porque lo volví a jugar, sin duda mi juego favorito de los últimos años, y en mi opinión el mejor juego de la Switch, también me gusto mucho BOTW pero disfrute un poco más Mario odyssey, lo recomiendo aunque ya vaya a cumplir sus dos años. La es la misma de siempre pero en este la historia no importa, ya que no te concentrarás en eso, el juego se concentra plenamente en la jugabilidad y solo eso. Le doy un rating perfecto. Expand

    This was my first mario game, but by the end of it I felt like I'd always known mario. The nostalgia trip in New donk city is amazing! The game's difficulty is also really well balanced, there are a lot of easy moons for beginners, but if you want a challenge, some of the moond and levels are infuriatingly challenging. Incredible replayability.

    Took me forever to get into this game (I was only really sold once I reached the water kingdom) but man I love this. To me, it has some of the same elements that made Breath of the Wild a masterpiece - lots of freedom for me to decide what I want to do next, vast world with lots of secrets and tips and tricks, very creative and fun puzzles.

    I loved playing this Mario game, but I feel that Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 on the Wii are still my favourite Mario games (maybe Mario 64 as well) as they were part of my early childhood. Innovative as any Mario game, the lack of powerups may have brung my interest down a bit, let alone the score down one. 9/10
    Great game, but it could be better.

    This game is unplayable without motion controls and detached joycons. Not only that, but the game constantly reminds you to use them, insultingly so. I own a switch lite, which means that playing this game is not possible for me. Technically you can play some of the game without them, but not all of it- as there are hidden places and stars that cannot be obtained without them.

    What a truly phenomenal game. It was so clear throughout the entire journey that so much love went into this game, and this was the first Mario game in a long time that really had me hooked the entire journey. I can not recommend this game enough and would highly recommend any Switch owner to buy this game ASAP!

    This game is such a joy. The team at Nintendo continues to amaze in terms of the creativity. Amazing level design and variety. Amazing visuals. And it came out in the first year of the Switch's life cycle which is insane.

    The best Mario game ever made. It takes the tried and tested formula and adds the small twist of being able to capture enemies which gives the game this whole new fresh feeling. In the past few years it’s the only game I have wanted to 100% complete to the maximum.

    My boy Mario is back at it again. So much fun and nostalgic feels all up in there folks. The gameplay and music is very well done. The story is classic and iconic with some twists here and there you may not expect. I love it and would recommend to Mario fans and just people who love games! Stay safe out there.

    While it was difficult to imagine how Nintendo could top previous 3D Mario adventures, Super Mario Odyssey is nigh-on perfect in almost every way. With the help of Cappy, Mario has never been as fun to control, reaching new heights and, in the hands of a skilled player, accomplishing impossible skips. You need only pick up a controller to see why this is the best modern Mario game ever.

    The best entry to the best platforming series is so ridiculously huge it’s like a theme park made of theme parks. It’s a wonderful tribute to Super Mario 64, but it’s not a lazy homage. Super Mario Odyssey draws inspiration from the superb classic to top it and everything that came after it. [13/2017, p.38]

    Perhaps no past Mario game has ever elicited so many smiles as this, and even if every other winning aspect of its design were set aside, that reality alone would make it a masterpiece. [Issue #31 – January/February 2018, p. 39E]
