Shoot, I just bought the game and amiibo this week. Oh well, it was fairly cheap and won't be my first time double dipping if I decide to get the Switch version too. At least my Wii U gets used a lot.
Is there much extra content compared to the WIi U version? my son wants the switch version, he says there are extralevels.
@HalfAWorldAway There are 4 extra levels themed around Mario odyssey and a small hide and seek mode if you didn’t have the amiibo for the wii u version

This is my favorite switch game I would pay 1000 euros for a sequel 🤩🤩
