Topic: Super Mario Odyssey

I was sold as soon as I could see that Cappy could control enemies. Where does the preorder line start?

There's really no reason why he SHOULDN'T show up! I could see him stealing her in the middle of a concert, climbing up the buildings. Even better if it was a construction site. And how about we throw other big Mario enemies like King Boo, eh?

This looks so epic and creative! Nintendo is really spoiling us releasing this and BotW in the same year.

This is definitely my most anticipated game of the year at this point.

@Tyranexx youve actually been able to preorder on best buy online for a while

Looking at the amiibo has got me wondering; will we see Mario and Peach get hitched at the end of the game? Have to say that I wouldn't be disappointed if it were to happen. Quite the opposite actually.

@ValhallaOutcast: I'm well aware. That post was intended for comical effect.

Anyone else ever play Space Station Silicon Valley on the N64?

I think this will (obviously) be great. There's clearly a lot of imagination that's gone into it.

My only reservation is that when there are so many power ups (& every enemy is basically a power up) that this can make a game into a confusing mess. See some levels of Spacestation Silicon Valley, Banjo Tooie, Yoshis Island DS or Kirby's Dreamland 3.

Fortunately EAD hasn't let us down in a long long time so I have 100% confidence they'll get it right here.

That trailer was really something special.Just watched it again and I'm still not really sure what to write about it yet.It was beyond anything I had imagined it would be.Even after 2 coffees,my morning brain can't quite comprehend the epicness of it.I'm off to watch it again

Have they shown the boss for New Donk City yet?I didn't watch much of the Treehouse.There was what looked like a mini boss in original trailer.I was thinking a giant Kong scaling a skyscraper with Pauline or Peach would be perfect and seems kind of obvious.

So.. only six worlds/''kingdoms''?

@Dev You're right, I did notice that ice world after I posted my comment. Maybe the peninsula where the sail of the ship is located will be another kingdom? It seems this only confirms the worlds we've seen so far: New Donk City, the forest, the desert, the polygonal food world, Jurassic park and Cap Kingdom(?).

When asked about multiplayer and online director Kenta Motokura said

“So there’s probably something you’ll hear about multiplayer. But the timing is not quite there so I hope you’re able to wait just a little bit longer to hear about that. And then as for network features, since this is something the hardware is capable of, there might be something you’ll hear about there as well, and I hope you’ll look forward to it.”

4v4 deathmatch confirmed!

With all the possibilities with the hat,that might actually work haha.

When dinosaurs attack!!

A 4v4 T-Rex deathmatch mode.How good would that be!

Edit: Probably not that good actually the more I think about it.

I can pretty much guarantee this will be my GOTY. Looks sooooo good!

I was very surprised to see that it's running in Unreal Engine though (?), you'd think Nintendo would have created their own engine or used the SM3DW engine. Cool nonetheless, the game looks gorgeous.

[troll]It'll make it easier to port to other consoles when Nintendo goes 3rd party...[/troll]

The unreal engine at the bottom is a biggie for sure.

I saw it in the reveal and it immediately stands out for me; it means nintendo can in the end relate to every bit of pain and trouble a third party goes through on their hardware and support them with it. I expect good things to come of that.

Meanwhile, this game looks incredible and if there's even an online or multiplayer aspect to it it's going to be even better

Ok I couldn't see that map for my life so I upload a version with more contrast. According to the map there's only six worlds, which has to be way too low, so I'm sure there are more that aren't on here.

@MasterWario That ice world above the Metro Kingdom doesn't have a name. There are more locations like that, so I'm sure there will be more. The six you see on the map are the ones we already know about.
