Probably answered a million times but when does this go on the eShop? Are they doing midnight launches anywhere if it ain't on the shop at midnight?

Don't fail me now, Amazon.

I'm from the school of vastly preferring the Galaxy/3DW line over 64/Sunshine, but I always suspected that was more about what Tokyo brought to the table than about openness or obstacle-course linearity. Odyssey will be the test. Can't wait to see what the road to 100% will be like. (And the music! Volumes and volumes of new Mario music!)

Waiting for my copy will be unbearable, but all the best to those of you diving in now, and I hope to join you soon enough. But I was already spoiled on the Power Moon count earlier today, so maybe I should put the blackout curtains back up and avert my eyes from the threads.

Anyone know what's going on with Amazon USA digital codes?

Preordered a code days ago. Haven't gotten anything yet. No early code to preload?

Says it will be available to play at 12am ET but that's it. Very annoying it no codes go out until 12am ET and we have to wait to download.

I'll be picking this up at 9pm tonight, if everything works at the GameStop. They said there would be a 9pm launch, but they also said that about Metroid. I went to the midnight launch for that, only for them to tell me, that someone was mistaken, and they can't give me the game. I'm going to call them again, to make sure. I feel the HYPE. The past few months have been stressful, I would like to chill for once.

Very slick OP. Looks great on this site!

Oh man, I already know I'm gonna be teary eyed as I'm booting this game up.

Super excited to see whatever the intro is (I'll lose it if Luigi makes an appearance!) and just taking my time in this world.

It's gonna be great to immerse myself in every world, enjoying the wonderful music, and just playing a FULLY 3D (not at all a jab at 3D World, it's one of my favorite games) Mario game.

It's gonna be a joy experiencing the feel of the controls, the quality of the art and animation, rotating the camera and looking and playing any way I please, and just getting such a strong sense of place from the environments in this game.

It's a mainline Mario game, it's almost destined to be special. I'm sure it'll sit right up there with BOTW for me.

It's gonna be a religious experience.

Gaming nirvana here we come!!

Wait a second, I could be playing this right now if I pre-ordered from the Japanese e-Shop?

There's no way to cancel a US digital pre-order, is there?

Great OP. I watched the Giant Bomb video and some of the spoilery stuff is insane. For example I love that
you can change the music that plays in game.

Awesome OT, can't wait to join you guys in this thread.

I wanna go in as blind as I can though, preload unlocks in less than 9 hours!

So excited! Anyone willing to say (in spoilers of course) the amount of kingdoms that we didn't have named before release. Not necessarily names, just how many

So excited for this. Debating on whether or not to go out at midnight for this, it's gonna be a cold one tonight.

Pretty bummed at how few Best Buy's Do midnight releases. I live in the largest city in my state and none are available according to the website. Oh well, I'll get to play tomorrow.

Really nice OT TheMoon! Cannot wait to play this, will go pick it up on Lunch break at work, but then the game and Amiibo will sit on my desk for the afternoon taunting me...

Super hyped for this, but the news about the frequency of moons sounds kinda concerning. Is there any difference between the moons you find just floating around different than ones with more of a 'quest' attached?

I guess everyone who has played it loves it though so I shouldn't be worried.

Preloading as we speak! Can't wait! Though I might fall asleep before midnight, haha.

I'm curious to know what the original OT was going to be like, given that the duel OTs clearly reference shenanigans.
