Random: Mario Galaxy Returns Next Year In "The Biggest Super Mario Odyssey Mod Yet"

Man, did my brain briefly go in a different (particularly more official and more numbered) direction upon seeing this post.😅

I love these kind of ambitious fan projects, especially when they are able to come to full fruition. Good luck to the devs.

Don't bait us like this. Jeez... 😑

Cease and Desist in 3... 2... 1...

That headline nearly gave me a heart attack, don't toy with my emotions like that! XD

Nintendo Ninja Squad will shut the modded game in 3...2...1

Gotta love how it's always "Nintendo will shut this down," and never comments on the project itself generally.

Why would you play with my heart like this 😢

...Okay, now that I've actually looked at it, this looks sick! Some parts are a little more rough around the edges than others, but on the whole, this is what I would expect from a Galaxy remaster. Maybe someday we'll get what Super Mario 3D All-Stars SHOULD have been... with Galaxy 2 included, to boot.

Unfortunately, this does look like something Nintendo would shut down, though. If you make something original, they're unlikely to mess with it. But a direct recreation of one of their games? That they're not too keen on.

We should have had super Mario Galaxy 2 on Switch for this Christmas.
Would have been a nice end to switch’s last Christmas before switch 2.
And being honest we desperately needed a Mario 3d platform game and it would have filled the gap.

@OldGamer999 Mario is kinda over-saturated as is right now due to all the re-releases of the RPGs and the new Mario and Luigi games. They really need to give things a break until the next 3D mario comes out (which is probably a Switch 2 launch title).

Nintendo: "No, I don't think it will"

"Smithers, release the lawyers."

@VoidofLight
So hoping it is a switch 2 release title.
Will probably buy Switch 2 on release day.
But as with any console it’s the games that will get me to buy Switch 2 on release day.

@OldGamer999 At this point I would be surprised if it wasn't the launch title. It's probably the reason why they've been pretty quiet about the system, given that Bowser's Fury was pretty much a tech demo and there's a high possibility the next game takes an open world structure to it's level design on the level of Bowser's Fury (but larger).

Fans do what Nintenwont.

@VoidofLight
Will be disappointed if it’s not a launch title, I think they definitely had the time and their pure in house releases have been quiet this year.
Time will tell, but will buy a Switch 2 when the right games for me are released. Which are big in house Nintendo studio games.
I normally buy every console day one, but I have got more, wait until games that I really want to play are released then buy the console.

I think Metroid Prime 4 will release day one as a cross generation title, but it’s not a massive system seller, but they don’t need a massive system seller day one, as all those switch 2 consoles will sell day one even with no games.

Looks great. Amazing

A bit of early attention seeking here, then some more from the fans when they release it. Then finally a bit more when they get people to give them some sympathy when Nintendo take it down.

I'd say NL should be able to get at least another couple of articles in before no ones cares about them again.

Nintendo will destroy it.

Can't wait for Nintendo to nuke another fun thing

Well, this all looks very cool indeed.

I don’t know how to feel. My heart is racing as if I was seeing a brand new Mario game. Galaxy is my favorite and this is just enough of a twist to make it feel special.

Inevitable agonising pining for Galaxy 3 awakens.

Please get 2 on the switch eshop.

stealing from the indie devs at Nintendo. shame.

Impressive for sure, even if I don't see the point.

When will Super Mario Galaxy 2 return to Super Mario 3D Almost-All-Stars? I'll never forgive that.

This looks brilliant. Also excited for Mario in the Multiverse. There’s a whole world of mods out there and some are genuinely brilliant.

Weird. Just play Mario Galaxy, still looks gorgeous and plays perfectly. And so does Odyssey.

I’ll pass. I prefer playing games in the engines they were designed for. I bet there will be a lot of issues actually trying to play it like a real game, rather than a novelty for 10 min, the team doing it won’t account for.

@AllBLK You'd love that, huh?

Yooo this is so cute! If I were someone who were proficient at modding, or... like, owned a PC, I would try this in a heartbeat. Hell yea, modders.

This looks really cool, but I’d really only feel comfortable playing it if it were official. That way I wouldn’t have to worry about it getting taken down (unless they would just so happen to remove it for some reason). Also, I think these kind of mods make it more confusing for those who aren’t as well immersed into these games. They might see someone playing this and go “Wow, that place looks cool. I can’t wait to reach it in my profile!”, and then they play through the game and find out it was all a fake. And yes, this has happened to me before. But on to the more obvious question… Nintendo! Where are those Switch ports of the Galaxy games? (You can only buy Super Mario 3D All-Stars through second-hand stores, or if you’re lucky enough to find a major retail store that still has a copy. Of course, you could also just get a new copy online for a measly few hundred dollars more than the original retail price… Nintendo, please bring 3D All-Stars back. It actually was pretty great. And then port Galaxy 2)

@mikegamer Actually I wouldn't. I don't like how sensitive Nintendo can be when it comes to certain things. I understand wanting to protect your IP but they act like a tyrant sometimes, especially when it comes to fan made projects done with compassion and love.

@AllBLK totally agree with ya

This only cements my belief that Super Mario 64 should have been "remade" and released as DLC for Odyssey.
