LIGHT SPOILERS

Also I am relieved about the leak of the number of kingdoms. I thought we saw way too much but knowing there are 4-5 kingdoms we haven't seen anything of yet makes me feel a lot better! It will just be New Donk City and Tosterina where I don't think I'll find much more than I already know

@rk3388 I was worried that they were showing too much so that's good, but how is this leaking already?
I thought they changed their policy on review copies after the new Mario and Luigi...

@rk3388 Don't worry, Nintendo will be holding a special All the Kingdoms extended trailer the day before launch so you will know every little secret about every kingdom in the entire game

@ValhallaOutcast I've been seeing them more frequently. I get the feeling that, even though demand is low now, it'll skyrocket after Mario.

I heard there was a retailer in Portugal that gave out copies of the game early- there are a bunch of livestreams of Odyssey happening over the internet and someone posted on NeoGaf who claimed to already beat it (that's how we know all the kingdoms if it's true and I think it is)

Just a friendly reminder to post any potential spoilers using the spoiler tags:

(spoiler)insert spoiler here(/spoiler)

Replace ''( )'' with ''[ ]''.

Too many spoilers

@rk3388 This seems to always happen for big releases like this, it doesn't really seem to worth the risk for anyone involved on the business side of things. And as for everyone else they just have to try and avoid the spoilers, none of it really seems right to me.

If the leak is true then I hope that there are a good amount of new Kingdoms....I'll just have to try and avoid them for a few months...

Now that particular spoiler was not too bad for me, in fact, if I had to know anything else about the game it'd be that...but I guess this means it's time to leave this thread until Friday! See ya! (We'll see if I can actually keep myself away, ha ha.)

Played a demo at Best Buy today and absolutely loved it. Honestly I am not a big fan of 3D Mario games, although I liked 3D World and Land, but Odyssey I couldn't put it down. Looking forward to playing this game next weekend. Definitely the Switches killer app.

Have to be strong.
Have to be strong.

Warning to all! On Youtube and Twitter be extra careful. On Youtube delete your history or say "not interested" when an Odyssey video comes up. Some youtubers are jerks and they had spoilers of the final boss/ending in the thumbnail and it popped up on my recommended videos.

News sites like Gamexplain are also showing minor spoilers as well, so if you haven't already unsubscribe from them for the time being.

5 days. Be strong my goombas.

This is the game I bought my Switch for. I'm one of the few folks not to buy ZELDA: BREATH OF THE WILD (have never stuck with any of the previous ZELDA entries I tried: TP on Wii and PHANTOM HOURGLASS for DS) and so wished SUPER MARIO ODYSSEY would have been a launch title back in March. I've pre-ordered this from Tesco Direct in the U.K. and managed to only pay £3. The wife's Tesco club points took care of the rest of the charge. We've decided to keep SUPER MARIO ODYSSEY under wraps until Christmas as a family gift to us and my kids from 'Santa'. Will be really hard seeing everyone playing it come the end of October but man, will be a magical Xmas game and no doubt last me well into 2018. I think for a small minority of non-Zelda fans like me, the Switch era will really now begin with the release of SUPER MARIO ODYSSEY. So excited for this game.

Anyone else buying this now but having it as a Christmas pressie?

@-Green- GameXplain actually renamed their newest video after people complained about it. Derrick didn't consider it as a spoiler since it was part of the demo that's been playable in events since E3. That said, there really are people who want to spoil everything. Derrick tweeted soon afterwards that apparently someone posted major spoilers as a reply to his tweet so he warns people to stay away from those replies. It is GameXplain's job to post guides, etc. after the game comes out so that of course may irk some people.

If you don't want spoilers I would say stay away from the internet altogether until Friday as it's going to be EVERYWHERE.

@FragRed Wouldn‘t one need to stay away from the Internet until they finished/completed the game? I mean, once it‘s officially out, the spoilers are getting even worse.

@GoldenGamer88 It's not that hard to avoid spoilers most of the time.
People that leak information before release just try really hard to ruin it for everyone. Most people after release are usually okay at not revealing to much in titles and thumbnails.

Obviously you have to be careful though, especially in here and on YouTube, but apart from that it's not impossible. I hope so anyway, I'll have to try and keep this game a mystery for a few months!
