Nintendo has finally shared more details on the upcoming Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury for Switch, giving us our first proper look at what the whole 'Bowser's Fury' part is all about.
The newly released trailer (see above) gives us two whole minutes of gameplay, with Mario exploring an entirely new area with none other than Bowser Jr. at his side. As for Bowser himself? Well, he's certainly full of fury, all right.
Throughout 35 years of Super Mario Bros. history, Mario has used power-ups to transform countless times, from Fire Mario to Tanooki Mario to Bee Mario and beyond. But the moment has finally arrived for Mario to assume a fearsome new feline form. He’ll need all the help he can get, since Bowser has become gargantuan and lost all control!

A brand new Switch console sporting Mario's iconic red and blue colours has also been announced to coincide with the game's launch.
Remember, the game launches on Switch on 12th February, just one month from today. Will you be getting a copy? Let us know in the comments.

It’s fantastic. I love it.
Wahooooo
Wow. Didn't actually expect to be impressed. But I am. That looks fun as hell and my direct disappointment has been briefly quelled.
Wow that looks genuinely awesome. Looks like a kind of open-world sandbox version of the game?
Who needs new games if you can just rerelease a 7 year old game?
edit: Also, did they get inspiration from Pokemon (Dynamax) at the end of the trailer?
Why did Mario go Super Saiyan?
Super Saiyan Gigantamax Cat Mario LOL 🤣
Hmm...not entirely sure what to think. I’m excited to play the game at some point since I didn’t have a Wii U, but compared to Mario odyssey it just looks kinda ok
Wow, this actually looks like a brand new game.
Something like a super-sized Odyssey map, but with 3D World mechanics?
Bowser looks insane. Like giga bowser but cooler
Lowkey bowsers fury sounds like a smash challenge
Bowser looks freaking incredible. I can't wait to play this!!!
Huh. Neat. I guess.
It looks amazing, it seems more like a successor to Mario Odyssey than an expansion of 3D World. But I'm worried that it's going to be too short. Did they just show off the final boss battle?
@mariomaster96 When that old game looks like this, nobody 👍🏻
@Dezzy Hopefully it’s a big expansion to justify having its name in the main title.
what the heck is going on
That was pretty epic. I wasn't going to buy the game again but now I'll at least consider it if I ever see it for a good price.
It’s still world people!
With one level tagged on!
@tabris95 Because Sonic did it
That's really cool, honestly. Absolutely day one now!
can't believe bowser got that mad when someone called him a furry
I don't know what that was....but I guess I'm buying it again.
3 things that make this epic 1. So bowser is losing it and bc of that Jr. needs marios help EPIC
2. open world like WAAAAAT its a neko paradise.
And number 3. SUPER SAYIN MARIO YOOOOOOOOOOOO. (Also the most badass bowser ever)
Bowser is metal
Similar to @Late above, wasn’t going to get this as I played it to death on the WiiU...but hat new bit looks fun! Maaaybe just not £50 of fun, but then again...
That was great
That's something else, was already going to buy it. But this seals it.
The part with Fury Bowser breathing fire and Mario Riding Plessie looks something out of BOTW's final battle.
From the look of it, you play through the course(s) as Mario, in a traditional sunshine and easy-paced way.
Then, Bowser drops, the sky goes dark, and you have to play the same course(s) again, this time with Bowser causing havoc. I assume that ends with Mario becoming Super Saiyan and fighting him.
Looks great. Wonder how big
Nice God of War ending.
The first God of War, not the second God of War.
Looks amazing!
And this game supports local wireless play 😃.
Already pre-ordered 2 copies.
1 more month to go.
Me 10 minutes ago: "No way am I getting sucked into double dipping on 3D World, already played it to death on Wii U"
Me seeing more Plessie: "Release date when?"
Kaiju Bowser! = D
@mariomaster96 more Godzilla then anything else.
If we can just play the Bowser part and not have to go through the entire game again then I'll borrow it from somewhere at some point.
That was pretty cool. Probably not gonna buy this, but definite props to Nintendo.
This looks beyond awesome, day one buy for me
@Crockin Odyssey is the better game, but 3D world is well worth playing. It's a great game.
Probably gonna get it, but to be honest, I hope there'd be an option to buy Bowser's Fury as a standalone at a lower price.
That Bowser theme though.....
Yeah day one buy.
Can't wait to see some art of this version of Bowser from "certain" artists... 😏
Bowser’s Fury vs. Mario’s Furry.
It’s tough against fluff as titanic turtle takes on ferocious feline.
Place your bets, ladies and gentlemen!
They added Kaiju fights to Mario!
Gonna be honest, I wish I could buy this separately. I've played 3D world to death and this game is expensive as hell in Canada.
Once again, Nintendo has the right idea, but implements it as cheaply as possible.
Bring Metallica or Iron Maiden out of retirement to produce the soundtrack, and expand this "Fury" into a full game. I will then buy.
The oil spraying off Bowser and Bowser Jr's paintbrush made me think it was almost Mario Sunshine-esque...
Btw I already made the thunbnail my new wallpaper.
Wow, WOW! I want this!!
I LOVED 3D World back in the day, but this new... world? they have included is just amazing.
Man, february will be crazy for my pocket!
Damn in Nintendo, you just had to reel me in for this huh?
Elder Dragon Bowser.
I wonder who is the main villain? Bowser looks as if he is under a dark spell or something.
@mariomaster96 More-so kaiju
I really do wish they would have had this along side a nintendo direct there would have been so much to talk about it would have been great, but Its safe to say that thos are dead.
@IronMan30 Not for me. I prefer 3D World to Odyssey. It feels more Mario Bros and less Mario 64/Banjo Kazooie XD. The worlds are way too big, and there are just a few. It´s more exploration than platforming. I prefer the 3D World style, honestly (the Galaxys are also amazing, with tons of different levels).
I'm Shocked and yet impressed at the same.
I can't believe I'm excited for new content in a game that was released 7 Years ago. definitely day one for me.
@the_beaver I'm speaking for myself, tbh. Odyssey was just so satisfying for me. Both are great games and deserving of most people's attention, imo.
Going to grab this after I beat Odyssey. Having not played the original release I don't have any expectations other more of what I loved in 3D Land.
After seeing that. I kinda think I have too revisit this game.
I was already planning on buying it day one.. but this.. just looks absolutely amazing!
This will be my first chance to play Mario 3D World. I wonder how big Bowser's Fury is. Could it be Octo Expansion size? I guess we'll see.
Mario's color palette turned into Super Sonic's.
this looks incredible!! 3d world is one of my favorite mario games (i like it more than odyssey tbh) and i cant wait to get back into it!! i have to wonder though, can you play as bowser jr? and can you play as the other playable characters like luigi, peach, and toad? also is this an entirely different game mode or is it like, post game? hmmm
And now I'm convinced to double dip!
I usually don’t pick up Switch ports of games I already have on Wii U, but I’ll make an exception for this one. 3D World was one of my favorite games on Wii U, and online multiplayer/speed increase/new content is more than worth the price for me.
And I thought nothing could ever compete with Giga Bowser, looking great!
Looks fantastic, was going to hold off but i think i may make this a day 1 buy now.
Although I finished SM3DW bitd, this trailer has me sold. Will get...eventually. Lovin' "kaiju" Bowser.
Bowser is like lavos how scary
Wow... that was more than I expected. But is the whole game now more in 3D or just the Bowser's Fury-Mode?
'just a port'
lol
Looks like it has a lot of nods to Sunshine, and since Sunshine is my favorite 3D Mario game, I’m definitely getting this now. Plus the Battle of the Furries at the end looks pretty epic.
I'm one of the rare people that owns it on WiiU...absolutely LOVES it...prayed for a Switch port and am delighted we're getting one!!
WiiU and Switch are SO different....the fact alone that I could play it on the go or a plane or on holiday etc is worth the £! Can't wait for this. Now lets hope we get the red base Bowser Jr Amiibo that was planned but cancelled for Mario Party Star Rush
Can we just buy Bowser's Fury separately?
Bowser's Fury looks like an Odyssey kingdom with 3D World mechanics. The collectibles seem to function like moons too.
Waiting till I hear how long this is, its like the final nail to knowing if its worth it for me. If not then maybe id somehow get it for cheap preowned.
A must get. The graphics are probably the best I've seen for the Switch. Koizumi is the new Miyamoto. He is doing a great job with the Mario series.
@the_beaver
I totally agree. I prefer the platforming instead of exploration.
To all those hoping to be able to buy Bowser's Fury separately:
No, it won't be be possible.
Looks super cool, but... is it just that one level? Can't imagine it taking more than a couple hours. Was really hoping this area would be like a hub world with gateways to actual levels.
@RupeeClock I’m glad it looks good to you, but to me it looked like the same stuff Nintendo has been recycling as of late!
@pinta_vodki You don't know the size of it. Breath of the Wild is also basically one level.
Soooo kaiju battles with cat mario and ink Giga King Koopa? Yeah day one. Good one Nintendo, color me intrigued.
Watched it on the tv and the kaiju bowser looked awesome with the large scale. Watched again on switch portable and wasn’t too impressed so I’ll probably play this on tv for effect
So glad I already pre-ordered this! It looks amazing! Great trailer Nintendo! Roll on February 12th!
It looks stunning too.
even though I've played the game to death on the wii u, looking forward to it
Yeah, I'm betting it's no more than a couple of hours long, since it looks like one area instead of a proper expansion.
Still, it's interesting seeing 64/Sunshine-style gameplay in 3D World.
I'll probably get this eventually. I'll wait to hear how expansive the additional content actually is first.
A better Calamity boss than BOTW!
if this doesn't hype you up you may as well just go and sell your Switch and forget it.
Can't wait to play that Super Sonic level ...oh wait
I'd rather have had thirty additional levels then one open world. But I'm still buying it.
Looks neat. Still waiting for a review to know how long it actually is though.
@SimoneBelmont
It looks decently original and it's fine when you consider it's add-on content for a Wii U re-release.
I mean, expectations weren't high but this looks really, really solid.
Like, Octo-Expansion levels of solid.
WOW. Bowser looks legit terrifying
Port of Mario 3D world for switch = sold! After seeing the awesome trailer. Yes even more sold! Bring it on xxxx
We definitely need a orchestral remix of the Bowcien theme for the final fight against mega giant Bowser.
Is that Bowser add-on just a single boss fight? Seems like it to me🤔
I don't care for 3D World, but it does make me want a first person shooter with that Bowser as an enemy that I can shoot rockets at 👍
@Maxz Great commentator lines for Cuphead Mario
Oh. My. gosh. Epic. Now the one month has became even longer!
I pre ordered it in December.
Epic trailer!!!
Lol marios cat hair just turned super saiyan there.
Aah more content for my favorite and most played Wii U game. But I'll never see it, because I'm not paying for it again on Switch.
I'm thrilled to play this with online multiplayer. This will be absolutely awesome if it runs smoothly (I know it runs at 60fps, I'm just thinking of the often awful online multiplayer lag in the otherwise incredible Super Mario Maker 2). I also can't wait to find out how long it takes to complete Bowser's Fury, but it honestly doesn't matter because it looks like such a good time. I love fun and short games.
Super Mario 3D World on Wii U was among the first I played multiplayer with my kids, so it'll be fun returning to this game a few years later on Switch. The new content looks exciting!
I wonder if Bowser is like a blood moon in BOTW, he escapes periodically and makes the normally friendly levels hazardous until Mega Cat Mario (or hopefully, Mega Cat Luigi/Peach/Toad!) puts him back in his box?
Still don't give any information about how long it is, but I guess somehow it "forces" us to double dip. Dammit.
@DTfeartheBEARD and online play
What's up at the end of video says 12-02-2021?????????
Well, I've never played 3D World, and this add-on looks extremely polished and, yes, "epic." I was already getting it, but now I'm getting it even more decisively.
This looks really cool but I hope it isn't a minigame that's like grab the cat medals to wake up bowser then kill him
Day one thank you very much
@RupeeClock Not sure I get the reference, but glad you like it.
@Darkyoshi98 day-month-year format.
@Lord But she has a new hat!
That looks great. But having 100% this on WiiU I'll need some convincing that this is more than a short addition
Also happy to see my favorite character Bowser jr. come back he always needs more representation
@Garo Unfortunately that wont be the case, it's too small of a level to sell sperately (think 1 world in mario oddysey, maybe a bit smaller)
However, i will say they might release a game in that style later on, since this seems to be a 1 player add on to a 4 player game, who knows!
Looks fun, but unless Bowser's Fury is fairly long, I can't see myself double dipping for this one. Maybe a GameFly rental.
I was already going to buy 3D World as I haven't played it before and it looks like great fun. BF makes me even more excited for it. Looks awesome!
It definitely seems like that this will only amount to one huge open level surrounding the Goop Bowser, where you find and collect those "kitty shine sprites" in order to unlock the huge cat bell which will enable you to take on the boss. Every scene in the video shows that dark shell or the goop and you can spot the various areas in the distance in each shot. Kinda disappointing if that's the case. It looks fun but it might be over too soon.
@Crockin I'm sure some will disagree with my take. But I feel it's not a real fair comparison of both games. I mean, you can argue they're both Mario games that involve 3D and thus, a comparison is valid. But really, they're both two different styles of game. Odyssey was your Mario 64 esque type 3D game. Where as 3D World (and 3D Land by extension) was more like traditional Mario 2D platform games, but gussied up with 3D. It was the perfect game for those who wanted the 2D, traditional experience and not fully on board with the 3D games.
With that being said, I'm genuinely excited for this. Granted, I've owned the game before. But I only played through it once and sold it immediately after. But I remember having a real good time with it. So for me, it's been 7 years since playing through it. So I'm looking forward to it. Plus, my kids are in the picture now. So it'll fun to play with them
@SimoneBelmont I get that but the game comes out feb 12th.so why does bowser fury come out dec 12th 2021?
I'm a little disappointed in this. I love 3D World, but my favorite part is the multiplayer. Now you can just turn to your friends/family and say "Hey, we beat 3D World! But this part here is only 1 player." Lame. This should have been a separate release or the new content should have modeled the style of 3D World.
@Darkyoshi98 I’m pretty sure it’s all on the same cartridge.
Looks alright. Still, a neat looking boss fight is not enough for me to pay $60 for a Wiiu port.
For those of you who skipped this when it released on the Wii U, and for all the fans of 3D Mario games; this is a must own game.
I would agree with most of the comments above that state that this isn't as good as Odyssey. However, you're comparing 3D World to an awesome game! Both are terrific and worth owning.
....but, I don't think I'm buying this a second time for 1 new world, even if it does look really fun to play.
@SimoneBelmont I thought the same.but still said dec 2nd 2021 at the end.and I know they just made the video
So I wonder what's happening dec 2nd 2021
It looks pretty good honestly. My only worry is that they spoiled the whole thing in the trailer, since it looked like that Bowser fight was the final boss fight of the mode. I really hope there's more to this than what they've shown, but I get the feeling Nintendo just basically spoiled the entire thing.
@Crockin
well off course this was release before it, i played on wiiu, it's more a small sandbox world level , much smaller compared to
the smallest of odyssey levels but still with hidden collectable, I remember i never manage to get all stars to unlock the special world(the hardest of all them), and i really want to replay it probably i will buy it again
@Darkyoshi98 lol In other places besides the United States, they FORMAT calendar dates differently. USA = month/day/year. The video is not for USA audiences. It's for other places in the world. They format as day/month/year. So the date at the end of the video means: day = 12th, month = 2, year = 2021. It's coming out in February. Seriously. Not joking.
I wonder if you can play it right away or if it’s locked until after the main game?
@VoidofLight To be fair, a lot of marketing spoils stuff. Heck, Bowser is the final boss, and he's on the cover. They should cover it with a spoiler alert or something.
I'm teasing though, I am wondering if it's just a single stage, with a single fight at the end.
Has this been confirmed to be either one player or multiplayer?
@SimoneBelmont I follow you know I had a blonde moment lol
@Darkyoshi98 No worries, I am a walking blonde moment so I understand
I wasn't sure if I was going to double dip, now I am! Looks super fun and interesting, and it'll be a single player experience, and it seems they adapted this game mode to be played that way.
Looks great. I wasn't sure if I'd pick this up at first but I'm a lot more interested now.
@sanderev Yeah, hopefully this is huge! You can see some structures in the distance there.
I'm definitely getting strong BotW vibes off of this, with the open world and that giant boss fight.
It looks incredible!!!
My 6yr old played the poo out of Odyssey - even beating it himself a couple times (he loves to delete his save file and start over). I have this on my mothballed Wii U but I have it pre-ordered to play with him on the Switch.
Let's a gooooo!
I hope Plessie goes Giga.
Giga Plessie
Bowser has undergone so many transformations throughout the years. However, all of those are child's play when compared to this. Bowser now appears to be larger than ever before, and he actually looks scary as well. In the trailer, it states that Bowser "has become gargantuan and lost all control!" Something tells me that a mysterious new power has taken control of him, otherwise, why would Bowser Jr. ask Mario for help? Also, I really hope we'll get to play as Junior. He'd be a great character to play as. I may also ask my sister to play it since she's a big Bowser Junior fan.
Bowser's new look looks like a mix between Bowser's mega-strike from Strikers Charged and Black Paint Bowser from Color Splash
Worth remembering this site is essentially an echo chamber for Wii U owners.
95% of Switch owners (quite possibly even more than that) will never have played this, so the entire game will be brand new to them.
@ukaskew I think it sold about 5m on the Wii U as well, which translates to over 65m people Nintendo are trying to sell it to. I loved it on the Wii U - I'm tempted - but let's see what other info they release on it first. There was tons to do on the Wii U version as it was.
I doubt this could be a standalone game.
Its seems its a cooperative/competitive race level or something? Like a very short "game" with just one course, but you play it lots of times to try beat records....
to those who responded, to clarify, i'm well aware of the concept of mario 3d world, and have played parts of it and the 3DS game. of course its not on the same scale as odyssey, i'm just saying that this dlc just looks ok.
Why does the release date say 12/02/21?
Looks like a Super Saiyan Lion. I'm here for it
@iammikegaines In some countries, the month and day are switched around. So that's February 12, 2021
Super Sayan Mario Cat? Lol
When it got to the point that Bowser Jr. goes to Mario for help against what is apparently giant Dark Souls Bowser, I would be scared too.
@iammikegaines it's a Nintendo UK video. We write the date the correct way round here!
@Crockin I bought the wii u version last year and mario 3D world is by far once of the best Mario games I've ever played.
1) Mario Galaxy
2) Mario 3D World
3) Super Mario Land 2 : 6 golden coins
It looks fantastic, though I wonder how big this will be. I am not really in the mood to buy the game since I have it already on Wii u, so the extra content should be pretty big to convince me. I my opinion this should just have been a Mario 3d world sequel.
Odd how whenever something bad happens they always went to Mario for help, even Bowser Jr. needs assistance to bring back his dad from the dark side. I'll get this once I sell away my Wii U version.
Looks awesome. Can't wait.
Gonna try and preorder today, never played 3D world and was already hyped and now I have an open world section with cool bowser and paintbrush bowser jr? YES PLEASE.
The best part? There's still so much more we haven't even seen yet!
@Late Same for me
Looks great. Will definitely pick this one up for sure.
@Yosher You’re so fun to have around. Thank you for literally always being there to make sure people don’t enjoy video games too much.
This looks awesome. Sorry to contradict all the miserable commenters on this site.
Something about Bowser Jr. with his paintbrush oddly similar to Mario Sunshine, doesn't add up. Why is he teaming up to fight his father? Does Mario fight alone in this one?
@iammikegaines Because you are on a UK website and the rest of the world follows Day/Month/Year.
@KingBowser I think it's separate continuities. Bowser Jr's paintbrush has an icon of himself on it instead of the E.Gadd.
Dynamax energy gathered around Mario!
@BAN Feel free to hit the Ignore button if I bother you that much.
But okay, just for you, I'll sum up my feelings more. I hecking LOVED the game on Wii U. I finished it up to 100% and it was a great journey, one that I am absolutely excited to fire up again, with online play, once it drops on the Switch. I am also excited for Bowser's Fury.
However, with them announcing this trailer beforehand, that set my expectations higher than they should have been in hindsight, and yes I admit that was mostly my fault, but at the end of the day, when they announce a trailer dropping soon, I expect more to be shown than simply the stage we were already shown before (even if briefly), a helper character you can't even seem to play as yourself, and a giant boss fight. If they just so much as showed one single extra playable character, or just explain how far the online portion of this game is going to go, that would already have been enough for me to prevent said disappointment.
All that said, I still am excited for this game and am going to get it day 1, and I'll love it all over again, including all the stuff that was shown off today. But I'm not going to show fake excitement just to make you happy.
Besides, don't act as if all I do is complain. I admit I do complain more than I should yes and I do apologize for that much, but when something excites me I show that all the same. Again, if you don't like my comments feel free to simply hit that Ignore button, I don't care one bit.
Also I'm usually alone anyway due to crippling social anxiety so thank you for confirming that I should stick to being alone, appreciate it mate.
@mariomaster96 I dont mind re-releases, infact I think they're great even if I dont buy them (at least the choice is here)
My only gripe here is that it feels rereleases takes priority over fresh content.
Personally what I want the most right now is a star fox announcement, a great game that harpens back to the lylat wars era but adds on top of it to make it the best one in the series yet
Releases are nice to see but still just meh.. at least this one has some additional content added in I guess
@Yosher I think every Wii u owner had a bit of frustration when seeing these announcements. On this site though it seems you're only a real nintendo fan if you approve of everything nintendo does 110%. Owning a Wii u didn't make you a real nintendo fan it simply made you a sucker. My sympathies.
@Yosher I have terrible social anxiety as well and I combat it by actually trying to be positive and happy. I don’t see you doing that as frequently as you think you do. The world is only as good as you and other individuals make it. If it stresses you out, maybe try to not put stress into it?
That said, internet comments aren’t the real world. You should not be basing your views on humanity and whether or not you interact with it on people disagreeing with you or even blatantly mistreating you online, especially if it’s over isolated and/or trivial subjects like this.
@sixrings Not really true, but it’s a Nintendo fan/news site. If you don’t like it, maybe go back to pushsquare? There’s nothing lamer than going on a website for a specific type of person and then complaining about that type of person.
@Doktor-Mandrake this is my gripe as well. If the switch got all the Wii u ports in the first two years I could live with that. But here we are in year four and I'm waiting for wind waker hd to come out. these are all great games which the majority I am rebuying so I don't have a huge problem with it. What I am frustrated withma is the fact that the games I like most of my switch library are ports. Not only that I wish some of these ports had sequels already. Donkey kong, mario kart, 2d mario could all use some switch love.
@BAN I don't know why I'd be on push square. Did sony make my wall paper. Did they make my donkey kong arcade cabinet. Did they make my amiibo collection? Did they release splatoon 2? Just because someone may not be super excited about something doesn't mean they aren't a fan of nintendo. Theycould have a perfectly good reason. If you don't like people having their own opinions you should either block people or avoid comment sections which is where people are invited to share their thoughts both positive and negative.
@sixrings why not just play them on your Wii u
@sixrings I don’t give a crap if you do or don’t like a video game. Literally nothing in the world could mean less to me. That’s 100% beside the point. My issue is that it’s basically a cliche now for people to come on this particular site and whine about how pro-Nintendo people are here. It’s like you think you’re original and have struck on something worth mentioning when in reality it’s old, boring, annoying, and serves no one.
How about if the pro-Nintendo slant annoys you, you take your own advice and ignore the comment sections yourself?
@BAN again there is an ignore button. From others perspective this site is hostile to different views. It's as if some want an echo chamber. I can only speak for myself but I do not come here to troll. Also on a thread I expect to hear a variety of views. Either way you can't control what others think or write but If you have a problem there's an easy solution. Ignore.
@WahooTime I know this is a first world problem but I don't have enough hdmi inputs on my tv to dedicate one simply to a console I would play irregularly. Instead I sold my Wii u and just committed to rebuying the games. Hopefully the next switch is backwards compatible.
@sixrings So use it? Also lol at how many times over the last decade that I've heard people say "this place is hostile to different views!" Dude. This is a freaking video game fan site. It's not a political debate forum. We're not talking about wmd's and abortion rights. It's a place where Nintendo fans go to talk about Nintendo, something that's fun to them, as an escape from the drudgery of the world. Nobody comes here looking to get sucked into a flame war and act like their hobby is a life or death subject with important real-world implications. But deal with the fact that if you're going to go out of your way to disagree with someone's point of view, they have an equal right to disagree with your argument.
But mostly it just gets really old when every single article on here ends up dragged down by people who have an issue with the premise of this website, the very reason it exists in the first place. I don't see that on other enthusiast sites. I don't even see it on other Nintendo sites. Just this one. And it's bizarre.
@sixrings we have hdmi switchers.
I never played much of 3D World when it came out. No reason outside of my life doesn’t afford me much TV time. So excited to do it on Switch.
And this trailer is bloody awesome. Excited to play a mini-Odyssey-style expansion with 3D World mechanics. This game should do really well for Nintendo.
This and Monster Hunter... big games to kick off the year
Super Saiyan Mario is here.
Super Saiyan Link is next. BOTW 2
@BAN he didn't debate anyone... I think like most people on here he understands that some things are subjective so he just posted his views.. you didn't like his views and decided to shame him on this thread... I don't need to use the ignore button because for the most part I can handle opposing thoughts....
@WahooTime I had one but you had to manually switch a button.. im not going to lie I am lazy so I gave up. Ever since we have had the ability to turn on our consoles by our controllers I have become a whole new level lazy. That said I grew up with a tv which had dials and an antenna that I had to adjust to get different stations. HDMI switchers feels like reverting to those times. I might as well put up my fake wood panelling and red carpet as well. jk
So, like, what it is? Just a bonus challenge world where you gotta become massive cat Mario and battle that Bowser? I am interested in seeing how long that is, still not exactly sold on buying this game again just for that as it might be really short.
Holy hell, this looks even better than I expected. A giant open world area tagging around with Bowser Jr. (is he fully playable or what?), searching for cat themed collectibles (looks like you progress by collecting Totally Not Power Stars/Shine Sprites/Power Moons), and a Dynamax battle against Bowser? This is what 3D World should've been like in the first place. I've been one of 3D World's biggest detractors because it's been missing content like this, but now I'm actually hyped.
@Bolt_Strike it does look like it'll be my favourite 3d Mario game... but ill miss the multiplayer aspects of the 3dworld levels... I really would have been happy if there was a whole game designed this way. maybe its a big add on... who knows.
Unsure if I will get this. I have a few rereleases with MK8D, DCktf for chill mode, Rayman, just bc I love it. Then recently picked up Toad bc a friend of mine thought it would be cool to play together. Not sure if this will have enough content to warrant me getting it again. If I do, it will be an impulse buy.
@rockodoodle which is better Rayman or NSMBUD... I honestly don't know... I LOVVVVVED RAYMAN
Wow, just wow! Nintendo, you just never cease to amaze this 38 year old kid. I think as excited as my kids for this.
@sixrings My vote would go to Rayman Legends, but Rayman Origins beats both of them. That's a game I wish would get ported.
@Deliesh I thought Raman origins levels were in Rayman Legends. I'd be super happy for the ubiart engine to be used by nintendo in a 2d Wario game.
@sixrings Many of them are, but not quite the whole game. (I had actually forgotten this, so thanks for the reminder! )
About what was to be expected from another full-priced, warmed over port. For those who've yet to play, enjoy! For those of us who have, yet more nothing from Nintendo.
@sixrings Rayman by far....
Kakarooooo- I mean, Maaariiiiiooooooo!!!!
Godzil.....I mean Bowser looks good !!!
oh my Arceus, that Bowser design is amazing, and that cats next to Mario(1:15 is Rosalina, Peach, Luigi and Toad transformed into cats?).
@iammikegaines is the format Europe use for dates.
Even the music was dope AF.
me and my boy looking forward to this games, when 3d world was released he was too young to play it and he is grazy about mario games. hopefully also some new switch features like nintendo always add within remakes:)
btw
good to see they finaly did something more with plessie, never understood he was not in mario odessey with dedicated water levels.
@rockodoodle
sad enough, we don't see any good rayman games anytime soon. the creator has left ubisoft, and the rest of the ubisoft company don't feel like making a new game, wich is a shame because imo is the best platformcaracter after mario en co and helped ubisoft to make a start to where its now at.
these games are legend
@Brydontk @ukaskew @iMarkU @Giancarlothomaz Ah my mistake everyone! I did know that about European dates, it's just not often I see dates that look like ones here in the states and I wasn't thinking! I would have been really sad if we had to wait almost another full year for this game!
@iammikegaines no problem.
@PALversusNTSC it really is an under appreciated masterpiece.. NSBMU is nostalgic, but has a lot of recycled stuff. Rayman has a ton of replayability, great visuals and music.
Wow so... It's a PROPER 3D Mario game now, and Bowser is SERIOUSLY furious, not just some lightning and a fire castle themed level? I went from "whatever, played it already" to "what even is this game? Is this still Mario? I want to play this..." in a very short time span.
More importantly - should I go digital or physical?! I like the look of the steelbook but like the convenience of digital....
@pixelpatch This looks significantly larger than any world from Odyssey. It looks like it could fit multiple Odyssey worlds within it.
@BAN Really? Like the desert world is HUGE, at most it might only be 1.5 times the size.
We havent seen it yet so maybe youre right!
@pixelpatch Just watch the trailer again and look at the number of islands and obstacles in the distance, and the floating islands in the sky. The scale of it is clearly gigantic compared to even the largest world from Odyssey, as evidenced by the fact that you need Plessie just to traverse the thing in a reasonable amount of time. The equivalent in Odyssey would be the Jaxi, and you could probably ride that thing across the entire expanse of the Sand Kingdom in less time than it took me to write this sentence.
Anyway, maybe I'm wrong and my perception is off but I hope not!
Not expecting the mode to be a full game itself, but I still hope it's also not something that can be finished within an hour.
Bowser looks freaking terrifying. I'm hyped.
@BAN Hmm there's definitely a lot there, im excited to see it in a month!
