Wow... this game is a celebration of the Mario franchise. I can't help myself but smile while playing. Caps off Nintendo ;)
Loving every second of this game.
Put dow the pro controller and rocking both joy cons, feels pretty good.
I play a lot in handheld but actually find it quite a downgrade graphically compared to other switch games. It just pops in docked mode on the TV.
My only issue is the motion controls but thats probably on me at the moment, I'm sure when I get it down it will be perfect.

also wondering what everyone else is complaining about. they feel exactly as i thought they were supposed to.. is it inverted by any chance?
anyway, pacing is perfect so far. love that you can take your time on a kingdom or go back to old ones, but if you choose to continue on it just keeps throwing new things your way. the game is sublime. controls like a dream.
Are some of the visible moons only post final boss content? Or should I be able to reach any moon I see without coming back?
Want to know this too. Don't want to google in fear of spoilers.
I'm only playing this game for 30 minutes at a time. I want to savor it for as long as possible. It's one of the best games I've played and I could tell that from the first moment. Everything from the controls to the art to the music felt just right. It's bliss.
I played Breath of the Wild 12 hours a day for two weeks straight, lol. Not gonna get remotely tired of Odyssey. :)
I'm only a little over 3 hours in, but I really love this game so far.
The movement feels so responsive, the variety in locales and enemies is great, and even with so many moons it doesn't feel like there are too many so far.
One thing I noticed is that it does feel easy, but then I realized it's because there are no lives now. I have no issues trying to charge at certain problems even if it ends up costing me my life because all I lose is 10 coins.
So, I have ended up dying a bit more than I thought I would, but I honestly prefer it this way. It still has challenging sections, but it never feels like I have to hold back over a fear of losing a life or anything like that.

I picked this up at Best Buy for my son for Christmas. I think they had 5-6 copies left.
I was originally going to ask for it myself, but maybe this year is the year I pass the videogaming torch to my son. Dad can't get the coolest video games for Christmas anymore.

Man I regret not finishing the last guardian before playing this.
Don't get me wrong, TLG is a PHENOMENAL game. But the controls are going to sour me even more now :(

There's times where you are pressing left and turning one way, then pressing left again and turning the other way. There was one moon needed to take a break from because I was going insane.
When you say relative to screen direction, if the bullet is facing left (<—) would you press the stick up to turn right?
He can just get them any other day of the year whenever he wants ;)
I'm pretty sure posessing a stack of Goombas in order to reach a platform and the ground pounding then all to death once they've served their purpose is the darkest thing I've done in a video game.
Second day with Mario Odyssey, and I'm still very impressed. It's a game that I just can't let go of playing. Just got to Metro Kingdom, which I'm surprised was so far late in the game. Not really a big fan of the Broodals, they feel something that wouldn't fit into a Mario game. Luckily the bosses you fight with capture powers are so great that it makes up for it. The plot is kind of silly with how much Bowser is getting to steal. I wonder how much stuff Bowser will steal, maybe he'll steal an entire chapel by the end of the game.
Can't wait to get home and try this game, it's waiting in my mail box, went out for a few drinks. Gonna be a good weekend.
Also, hello to everyone good to be back in a community.

This is post game spoilers since I have a skin you can get in post game in the video, but its a jump I was kind of proud of because theres no other easy way to get to these coins.
Those are from the XLTeam. It's not a shell swap with those. They custom paint a set of joy-cons. You don't send them yours. You're basically buying a new set, plus the cost of the custom paint job.
Here is mine from Colorware, can't buy these any more. XLTeam does still have theirs for sale.

I totally agree with you. I would love to see the Lochladies and the Tostarenans as characters in Mario Kart.
Amazon didn't deliver until 9pm and I chose my office as my delivery address:( I'm tempted to just get it digital and have a backup card haha
The game looks better on my TV and even on the Gamepad then I expected (I guess dat YouTube compression).
Just started and the game loses charm out of every book and cranny. Going to be one memorable ride!

First post!
Yeah, just a quick chime-in, this is game is an absolute delight so far. Up to
, and it's just been firing on all cylinders. Fun to just jump around with Mario, the many little details and animations gives each area its own personality, and the inventiveness with the main mechanic making for plenty of delightful moments. Definitely gonna remember this one for a very long time.
And I want to look up the soundtrack desperately, but fear on stumbling on a spoiler. XD

On my 7th Kingdom now, having a blast so far. I'm purposely leaving worlds unfinished so I can return to them in the future, just how I played 64 and Sunshine.
Lake Kingdom/character spoiler
Has anyone been to the bottom of the water well thing in the main bubble? You need to have the 6 health buff and you still barely make it. It was the first time I came across Captain Toad and when I got to the bottom and heard his music it was one of the best moments of the game for me so far
Sharing my exciting Facebook post with the rest of the world.
I was sick all week so I'm ending it in the most logical way possible.

The only downside is it almost makes me question playing the game on the subway, when that isn't possible. I keep wondering if I should switch(ahem) to Stardew and then back to Mario once I'm home just to better utilize the controls.
Man I need to buy Mario. I thought our pick it up with targets sale but only now realized it excludes switch games.
