I secretly hope for an Osyssey 2, but I wonder if they'll do that or just have DLC kingdoms.
I snapped a pic because I loved it so much.
You have no idea. Don't look at my spoiler unless you don't care about a post game outfit and location.
Oh, one other fun shot I took of post game content because I'm a Hans Christian Andersen fan.
The emperor has no clothes!
You can re-fight Bowser and perform the escape sequence via the painting hung in the church.
My bad, added spoiler tags.

I finally 100%ed this game. Every moon, every purple coin, every costume and optional endeavor – I even maxed out the coin counter just for fun. Took me roughly 60 hours and two weeks to do it.
Absolutely magical experience. Taking the cartridge out of my Switch felt like saying goodbye to an old friend. As of right now this is without a doubt in my mind the greatest game of all time.

You can cheese this by returning to the area before the tower between fights and throwing your hat on one of the fruit stems for one of those 6 hit hearts
I posted in this thread earlier. How it wasnt quite clicking with me. I take it back now. I'm having so much fun postgame going through each world and uncovering all the moons. Still havent fully decided but I'd say the only kingdoms that I'm still iffy on is Seaside and Desert kingdoms. Both of those seem a lot less content packed and not quite as fun. Although I'll go back and see. I think I've had more fun post-game than during the main game. It may also be that I was rushing through to see all of the worlds. Now that I've seen most of them, I have more so leisurely been exploring the kingdoms.
I wasn't a big fan of seaside when I first visited it, but going back I fell in love. It's just an incredibly dense and well designed kingdom.
Well that's #880, and also the last hat I needed to unlock. A little over 40 hours according to my play log. This moon was easier (and shorter) than people made it sound. Maybe I skipped a bunch of it, I thought I remembered someone saying there was a Bullet Bill part, but there was no Bullet Bill part.
I don't know what to do with myself now that I can't just mess around with finding moons to kill an hour and two.
Other things I did
- Finished the final Sphinx quiz
- Beat the harder Bowser fight
- Collected all the costumes
- Collected all the transformations (there's actually a few that aren't required for a moon)
I'm not grinding coins to get 999, because that's just stupid and tedious. I think they will eventually add DLC to add the remaining 119. I really hope they do DLC or an update or something because I want to do more with this game.
The jump rope, frisbee and matching the face pieces minigames were junk and were some of the last moons I got. Getting 9999 coins was also a pain. An hour of just playing the same bonus stage over and over again.
I played pretty much the entire end game (the final 300 moons or so) as Metal Mario, but thought I should be "regular" Mario to finish off the game. Beating it as Metal Mario made it seem like the final scene would be boring with no face or hand motions

I also saved that moon for my final moon. I was pretty emotional as I was climbing the looonnnngg tower and even hesitated for a few seconds once I got to the top before pressing A to jump and grab it.
Also, that final challenge was legitimately fun. Grandmaster Galaxy in SMG2 was hard and frustrating, but this was hard and enjoyable. I instantly wanted to play it all over again.
Yea, I waited a bit to grab it to make sure Cappy was done talking. And also because it meant the game was over and I had nothing left to do.
Interesting. Any stem in particular? I got real close a couple times on the final bit but gave up.
I have a question about the carrying case that comes with the switch + odyssey bundle. What kind of case is it that comes included? Is it one you can just buy at the store but an Odyssey themed one? Or is it a unique kind of case just for the bundle?
Same goes for the Breath of the Wild carrying case that came with the specials edition for that game.
Just wondering basically if I can get either case on the market or if the cases are uniquely available through those bundles, don't really care about the theme of them just wondering about the cases specifically.

Can anyone give me a hint regarding the Seaside Kingdom Art? I haven't the slightest idea what it's trying to tell me.
You dont get kicked out of the level each time you get the progression moons so maybe thats why you feel that way.
Thanks. Found it.
Also accidentally discovered the neat little Easter egg when you jump on the globe outside of the Odyssey.
My GOD. The end game stuff... The
rabbit boss rush... Fucking pissing me off. The camera keeps fucking me up. During the second portion of each rabbit the camera just decides to top down for no reason at all, meaning i cant see the shit coming at me from the sides. I either need to perfect my claw grip to be able to simultaniously override the shitty camer and also jump/throw, or guess at which way fucking hats are coming at menfrom the side to hit them away. Seriousky the only reason i keep dying. Ive been at this for the last week. Its threatening to be the reason i quit the game.
I'm getting closer and closer to 999 Moons and I really don't want this game to end, lol. I guess I could start a new file, but I also have a backlog to finish.
I really hope Nintendo decides to do DLC.

Has anyone else noticed that if you throw your hat at or jump on the Glass Tower Model souvenir from the Seaside Kingdom (while in the Odyssey), you can feel the HD rumble sensation of two ice cubes in a glass of water while holding the Joy-Con? Possible reference to this, as Koizumi is the game's producer?
Lake, Wooded, Luncheon, Bowser, Mushroom. Actually 5 kingdoms lol.
I can (and probably will) look them up, but it's not like I remember which coins I got already so it's going to be painful looking that up either way.
This, along with being able to replay
the New Donk City festival,
I want to see DLC mini-campaigns where you just play as some of the various characters that you can capture in the game. Give each one an extra move or two to flesh them out a bit.
Basically, I want to play Super Pokio Odyssey.

And Super Bowser Odyssey
Has anyone figured out the best way to get coins in the game, besides the slot minigame? So far I have found that the cloud minigame in Wooded kingdom is the best way, the only issue is that you have to get the seed in order to activate the minigame every single time, but it can net you 230+ coins. If you include getting coins from the coin coffer (which is right before the seed dispenser then that makes it 260+ coints

Start a new file and let us know. And before you ask, each Switch profile can have 5 save files for this game so you won't lose your current progress.
I have the bundle case. Pretty barebones. The ones on Amazon look way better.
The case is Odyssey themed. It's pretty nice. I haven't seen it sold separately anywhere, I think it's unique to the bundle, at least for now.
Just beat the main story.
What an incredible game. Think I'll take a bit of a break before diving into post-game stuff. I tried to get pretty much every moon in each kingdom before moving on (with some exceptions, screw jump rope) so I'm a little burnt out. Standing ovation to Nintendo. I hadn't owned a Nintendo console since the NES, but this was the type of experience I wanted out of my Switch. Good old fashioned fun gameplay, a relief from the typical AAA games I've been playing far too much of over the past few years.
Brought me back to my childhood, hunting for secrets in Mario 3. Bravo.

Also just beat the main game. I almost cried at this... certain Kingdom I'm in right now. Just wow. Give Nintendo alotta credit. So much love and care.
I must be the only one here who isn't completely enamored with SMO. It's fun—don't get me wrong—but it's not holding my interest the way I hoped. I beat the main game and for the first time ever in any 3D Mario, I can't be bothered to find all the moons. *shrug*
That's legitimately one of the most awesome fan creations of anything I've ever seen.

Beach Volleyball Hero done! It even became almost enjoyable in the end, as my high score went from a frustrating 60 then 68 to a slightly ludicrous 180. It's definitely all about the hat throw rather than moving Mario. Jump Rope Genius, though, I'm not sure that I'll ever manage.
381 moons now and I *think* that I'm approaching the campaign endgame
...it's been a really great ride, but I don't intend to stop until I get to 100% - or as close as I possible can.

Moon Kingdom
Beat the game
Now let me buy DLC so that i can play as Luigi, peach, Cap toad, and rosalina, Nintendo.
I'll settle for luigi

It's definitely hard for different reason than Champion's Road or Special 8 Crown. Less focus on challenging platforming and more on enduring all of the sections in one go, and figuring out the best way to do that.
By the time i beat it, i thought they were too generous with hearts throughout the level. Will definitely be going back through it to challenge myself further.
Really enjoyed the level though. It's a great culmination of the entire game and ends it perfectly. In those regards, it's much better than the other ending levels of the most recent 3D Marios.
Finally got to save 9999 coins and bought
the skeleton outfit. 2Spooky4me man.
You can get a big heart at the beggining by beating the ufo-hat thing. There's a heart at the start of the lava bubble section and behind the onion stage that you can get as lava bubble. A big heart again under the Sphinx. You need to focus on reaching the Bowser paiting with 1 health point, as Bowser acts as a power up and gives you full 6 health.
That means that you can choose to tank some damage at some points.

There's such a different layer to this game on e you've only got a handful of moons and purple coins to discover in a Kingdom.
The consensus I've seen (and the method I used) was the use the cloud area in
Bowser's Kingdom
It seems to be the same case that was in the Splatoon 2 switch bundle as well. It just looked nice, was wondering if it was available in stores or something.
One of the themes I like in this game is the celebration of diversity and cross-cultural exchange. You get a bit of this in the main story-there are a handful of tourists scattered around, and some Tostarenan entrepreneurs have already set up their slots business in New Donk City-but it just explodes in the post-game. Suddenly, every kingdom is full of visitors from every other kingdom, talking and comparing and getting new ideas by experiencing different places and peoples, sharing their cultures. There's one scene in particular:
And it's just...nice, you know?
When you return to the Moon Kingdom, just west of the ship's landing zone there's a group of people from every kingdom, or close to it at least, sitting on a ridge and looking up at the Earth, talking about how beautiful it is and how small their individual kingdoms seem.
And it's just...nice, you know?
That's only because this game doesn't show the Metro Kingdom's subsequent capitalist expansion into and exploitation of these now-stable markets. Their system literally runs on Power Moons; how do you think they're going to sustain it?
You joke but I seriously had a "Oh GOD" moment when I first went into the power plant and turned the camera around haha... In a weird way it made me feel uncomfortable to see all those power moons being used like in a factory haha
