    This game is fantastic. It’s really beautiful for a handheld game, the controls are buttery smooth, but most of all it’s just plain fun. Each moon feels super satisfying to collect.

Some moves can only be used by using motion controls and that’s really annoying. I thought Nintendo was past gimmicky motion controls, but I guess I was wrong. Either way it’s a must have for the Switch.… Expand

    Super Mario Odyssey est un indispensable de la Switch, qui a su offrir au joueur la sensation de véritablement voyager dans un univers Mario. Ici, pas de niveaux, juste des mondes plus ou moins grands mais surtout plus remplis. On regrettera juste le nombre trop important de lunes.

    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 is actually the first Mario game that I was able to finish. If feels like Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario 3D World had a child (while that doesn't sound that good, its 3:02am so cut me some slack). Overall good game, would recommend.

    If you like platforming then this game is for you. Nintendo struck gold again on this one and dispute the short main story there are several hours more of completionist and endgame content. Honestly if you have a switch and have not played this game, I don’t know what you’re waiting for.

    Certainly one of Mario's best 3D games, but I think it could be better. The soundtrack is very good, the gameplay too, but I think the only defect is the clothing system. I think if it had power-ups like Mario Galaxy it would be more interesting, and the game becomes a little repetitive at the end. However, it diminishes very little in its legacy.

    Such an amazing game. So glad I had this experience. To be completely honest, at first, I was really not enjoying it when I started to play it. I felt it was way too easy and uninteresting (there are so many moons and some you basically just have to ground pound the right spot on the ground and wow you get a moon). I started the game with a bad attitude that made it unenjoyable. I realizedSuch an amazing game. So glad I had this experience. To be completely honest, at first, I was really not enjoying it when I started to play it. I felt it was way too easy and uninteresting (there are so many moons and some you basically just have to ground pound the right spot on the ground and wow you get a moon). I started the game with a bad attitude that made it unenjoyable. I realized that this game was meant to be different. It is an Odyssey, meaning you are supposed to explore and just have a good time. When I changed to this mindset I had so much more fun. It was such a blast exploring all the amazingly designed open worlds and collecting as many moons as I could, not matter how easy they were to get. And don't get me wrong, there are plenty of insanely hard levels that will satisfy even the best gamers (Long Journey's end and Breakdown road). God I love this game, If you are going to play it, remember it's supposed to be more of an exploration game that has plenty of super fun and hard platforming levels. Must buy.… Expand

    Oh, my God! What have you done to the game?
    I've never played such a fun game in my life.
    No matter how much fun a game is, you'll get tired of it once or twice, but this Super Mario Odyssey never gets tired of it even if you 100 times. Of course, I don't get tired of Zelda's legends hundreds of times. That's the advantage of the Nintendo switch.

    Just a joy. This is as good as 3D platformers gets for me, I think. I played through it in bits and pieces between other games that demanded a greater commitment of my time (e.g. BOTW).

    Doesn't do much to differ from older games. It's basically Mario Galaxy but better on a better system, with other expected improvements.

    It's good and all, but for me the formula is a little aged by now. Jump on enemies, maybe smack 'em with a hat fiest. That's it though, nothing new. I suppose if it ain't broke, don't fix it?

    This game is so overrated. It's really easy, and most moons are way too easy to find. This game was pretty fun to play through, but this game is short. Like ten hours short. I hear everyone going on about how amazing the endgame is! But it isn't fun. It's just a repititive collectathon. I had my fun with it. But its way too short.

    Masterfully crafted. The mechanics and controls are the most satisfying I've ever used, and the most fun. It has so much potential in what you can do gameplay wise. That's not even mentioning the very likeable and unique characters you encounter throughout the game, breaking the relative monotony of some other Mario games.

You will notice excellent execution in all departments, including soundtracks, visuals, gameplay, innovation, and replay value. Without a doubt, this game is a modern return to sandbox-style games like Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Sunshine, both absolute great experiences in their respective ways. As for someone still debating whether or not to buy this game, it is worth every penny of your well-earned money. Trust me, you will have a blast visiting each kingdom, all of which have different landscapes and vast areas to explore. Couple that with being able to purchase items with in-game currency to dress Mario according to the climate or vibe in a region, and you have a title born to be executed perfectly. If you are on the fence regarding purchasing Super Mario Odyssey, I would advise you not to listen to users who gave this game a Metacritic score of zero. Judging by the way they wrote their reviews, they tend to cling to a certain topic and repeat statements about the game's difficulty. I will agree that some boss battles are leaning toward the easier side of things, but that does not devalue the challenging objectives which this title is loaded with. It is certainly a perfect game for both adults and children, though users who chose the lowest possible score would likely disagree. Gamers that claim "Nintendo games are children's toys" in general likely haven't even played one in their lives. The same goes for those who gave Super Mario Odyssey an unfair goose egg. These users haven't even played the title, but are simply latching onto lies regarding the game's difficulty or age range. Some even think the game deserves a rank of seven or eight, but put a zero to balance out the perfect scores other users selected! This title is fantastic despite any minor flaws it presents, and I will return to it for years to come.… Expand

So keep in mind, I am a newcomer to 3D Mario games, heck, 3D platformers in general. And let me tell you, THIS. IS. THE. BEST. VIDEO. GAME. EVER!!!

    First of all, the Graphics. A lot of people.    Ok, I've seen a lot of people gushing over the fact that it captures the fell of the original 3D Mario Games, And I've seen a lot of people dismissing their review as being blinded by Nostalgia. So keep in mind, I am a newcomer to 3D Mario games, heck, 3D platformers in general. And let me tell you, THIS. IS. THE. BEST. VIDEO. GAME. EVER!!!

    First of all, the Graphics. A lot of people. think that because the switch doesn't have such a high resolution as other consoles, it means they cant have good graphics And Mario Oddysey proves these people wrong. From the beautiful landscape to the hyper-realistic textures of the characters, this game is a treat to your eyes.

    And then, in my opinion, the best part of the game, the controls. The sharp and fluent controls of Mario are strengthed by his latest companion. Cappy. Thanks to this hat with an M on it that is controlled by a living ghost also in the shape of a hat (Never thought I'd have to type that) You feel in control at all times. It helps you maneuver and re-position yourself in a way that never makes death feel unfair or something. If you die in this game, You know you screwed up. And because you can also jump on Cappy, It makes previously impossible jumps now a piece of cake.

    One of the most creative aspects of This absolute masterpiece is the capturing aspect. With the help of Cappy, You can capture and control other creatures. I can't describe how fun that is. Like come on, You can be a FREAKIN T-REX.

    In conclusion, You HAVE TO play Mario Oddysey. Even if you don't like platformers, you still should. And even if you don't have a switch, you should still buy it. Yes, this game is SO good you should buy a whole new console to play it. I'm sticking with that.    … Expand

    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]
