Ok I laughed.
That's kind of crazy.
Edit: oh god
Ok now that's something
I started screwing around with moves to check some jump combinations while on the edge of the place you land at. Obviously soon enough I jumped beyond boundaries of the stage and laughed it off, that's what obviously was going to happen, while waiting fir death animation.
Only I didn't die, that's the way to reach another part of the world

I love that Mario is given a little more character than we have come to expect outside of the RPGs!
Only played for a bit on the bus this morning and just now at lunch and I don't want to stop. Music is top notch, graphics are great. I'm not a fan of motion controls but it's not a game breaker though.
Won't spoil anything but taking over enemies or animals is awesome and love the open world levels.

Seriously! I was disappointed in Fossil Falls for the first few minutes when I felt that I had seen it all. BUT, the level design sort of organically strings you along at a pace that leads to you discovering the little nooks and crannies that you might overlook at first. Really loving it so far.
So I've been playing about 5 hours in total scouring every nook and cranny before I move on to the next world or area and despite enjoying it a lot, I just haven't clicked with the controls 100% (Pro Controller).
I had one 'this controller could go through the TV' moment as I lost about 150 coins on an area which required steering Bullet Bills through some tricky moving terrain in a tight corridor. Could do the first three changes fine and then suddenly the controls were invesersed compared to the BB I'd just jumped from and I'd slam immediately into a wall I'd intended to go the opposite direction to. Had to backtrack and get out the area in the end.
I've dyslexia and mild dyspraxia and my brain just couldn't handle the sudden change in controls. In fairness, this was in a secret area (or at least off the beaten track) and I'd already collected more than enough moons to progress to the next world so I think it was one of the harder challenges for completionists rather than the usual progression path.
I'm loving the world building and attention to detail which touches like needles sticking out of Mario's nose if he rolls into a cactus. Odyssey and BOTW are really demonstrating that Nintendo know how to to make a game world feel vibrant and alive.

Oh my god, putting on
. There have been a few times I've laughed my ass off after taking control of something lol
Bowser's hat during the first fight
Having an awesome time with this game.
Can't wait to see speedrunners rip this apart and do incredible stuff with it.

I'm currently in that 'refuse to move on until I've found everything in this stage' mode right now. I hate leaving unfinished things behind.
Fantastic game. First 30 minutes were a little underwhelming, but once i got through the tutorial stuff it got so much better.
Can't wait to get back into it tonight.

This game is fantastic! I'm having such a good time with it! Super glad they went back to the Mario 64 / Sunshine format. The only thing I'm not really into is the motion controls. Feels like they don't work as well as they should? Maybe I'm just horrible with them lol.
That final level was something else. Easily the best final level in the whole series and top 5 best levels I've ever played.
Like, if this was the ending for the entire Mario series, I would've been satisfied.
Holy fuck.

Yes! I'm so happy to be here just in time to celebrate this game! I'm only a few worlds in and have avoided spoilers but absorbed the hype and my body is absolutely not ready.
That stinks, hope you get your copy soon.
Maybe call Amazon and see what's going on
I don't know how to do spoilers yet on this forum, but the Jaxi moon in the desert area surprised me with how sweet it was.
Only played an hour or two last night, but this game is FUN. Very very good so far. Excited to play more once finals are done...in 2 weeks (FML).
Won't stick around this thread for fear of spoilers, but wanted to drop in and say how wonderful this is already (i'm A couple of hours or so in). If it stays this good it will go down as one of the all time greats.
I play almost exclusively handheld, will I be missing too much without using split joy-con controls?
Damn, this game is so full of energy and ideas, even by 3D Mario standards. Having been on almost complete media blackout, I'm kind of in awe right now. This first transformation had me laughing at a game for the first time in forever.
Got my copy in the mail this afternoon, and I managed to get to the desert kingdom so far.
Liking it very much from what I played, Seen some mad skillz clips on twitter that look to be well beyond my potential skill level.
This game is gonna have me occupied for the coming weeks for sure.

I'm only on the Sand Kingdom, but god damn this is amazing. I love the exploration, I love finding moons all over the place. It feels like the kind of game built for short bursts, but still paced properly for long sessions.
I especially love how the game front loads some weirdness just to give you a taste of what the game is capable of throwing at you, and it's so incredibly endearing.
I haven't really liked a 3D Mario in a while, but this is doing it for me. I can't wait to unlock more worlds.

I'm a couple hours in and am enjoying it, I bought the red Mario wired controller from BB mainly because 30 bucks for a wired controller is a better investment then a pro controller for me since I do 95% of my gaming on my PS4. I feel like I'm missing a bit because of no motion that the pro controller has for spinning the hat around me easier but I think I'll live, and imagine worst case scenario I can use the joy cons even though I'm not a huge fan since I have large hands and am not the biggest fan of motion contols to begin with
Played it for a bit earlier with my niece and was very impressed. Lots of interesting little details everywhere. Trying to teach a 5yo to use the camera is proving difficult though :P.
I played with 15 mins on my first break earlier and already the controls (pro controller) and Mario's movement feels pretty great.
I mostly wasted time using Cappy to light up if the street lights and look for secrets in my brief time but I'll be digging in deeper during my lunch in 15 mins.

As of this work day couldn't get any longer. I got to play some at lunch, but damn I can't wait to dive back in tonight! I'm only a couple hours in so far, but it's all been amazing. The music is especially great.
