So good.

This year the battle for the Nintendo (maybe even overall) GOTY is going to be HARD.

HOLY SHIT HAHAHA.

 

[RionaaM]

Between Breath of the Wild and this, I may not be able to keep saying Super Paper Mario is my favorite Nintendo game much longer. This is literally Mario on mushrooms.

 

[Spring-Loaded]

This really does seem like a direct sequel to Super Mario 64 in terms of oddly realistic environments (which they were, at the time).

Leaked footage of Mario Odyssey's planning and development team meetup

Use this instead:

Portable Skyrim, Portable DOOM, Mario Odyssey, Mario + Rabbids, Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, and Splatoon 2 all in the same year.

 

[Red Devil]

I hope Pauline becomes a staple of the Mario franchise, like Rosalina has.

Also, there are 9 kingdoms confirmed (New Donk City, Tostarena, Mount Volbono, Steam Gardens, Bonneton, Fossil Falls, Shiveria, Bubblaine, Jungle), plus, the list shows at least 55 moons in the Sand Kingdom. Assuming the number of moons per Kingdom is the same, there is at least 495 moons to collect.

Edit: I forgot about the Jungle Kingdom shown.

It said 69 actually.

 

[Doogdogg]

So the moon..... can you fly to it?

This photo sums up my feeling about this game.

75% sure the final boss or 2nd final boss is on the moon.

There's no better place for the honeymoon. Wonder if the comet observatory and starship mario will pop up too.

 

[Toxi]

Mario's new duds are so snazzy.

 

[Bubba_Sparks]

Man... MAN! So glad I picked up a Switch last week! Should be finished Zelda by the time it hits stores!

 

[Graphics Horse]

So the moon..... can you fly to it?

We haven't seen anything on it yet but being able to go to the moon is kind of the worst kept secret of this game.

 

[YaBish]

This looks absolutely stellar. If I had the money for it, I'd be on that Odyssey Switch bundle in no time.

First double GOTY ever for Nintendo this year.

 

[jrDev]

Where are these from lol? This is the second time I have seen these same people in a meme pic.

Nintendo, I just can't understand how you are topping what you did for the previous Mario games. Jesus!

Oh Jesus lol.

 

[Alcotholic]

All the transformations remind me of Banjo Kazooie.
Its as if someone looked at one of the more unique aspects of Banjo Kazooie and made a whole game about that.

 

[Mobius 1]

First double GOTY ever for Nintendo this year.

And one is a viable contender for GOAT. Nintendo is bringing unfiltered joy. On the first year.

I fear for my life if Animal Crossing Switch follows up with this quality.

 

[psychotron]

My hype just soars to new levels every time I see new footage. This may be my game of forever.

 

[supermarioworldE]

Mario's nipples and feet. Once you've seen them, you cant go back...

Amazing footage on display for such a massive game. I cant even begin to imagine how long it would take to 100% complete this game. Not too mention the fun side content that could last for a while. The new Mario 64 indeed.

 

[disappeared]

I quit the video about two minutes in.

There's no more I need to see. Let the rest be a surprise.

 

[Andrew J.]

When Mario was singing with Pauline was he in an outfit with red overalls, like SMB1?

 

[the_lizard]

Looks amazing. Really makes me want a Switch.

 

[starry sonata]

I promised myself that I would of been on complete blackout...I truly am a weak weak man.

HOLY CRAP that trailer.

 

[AtomicShroom]

Speaking of which, the Yooka-Laylee team should take a long, hard, introspective, ponderous look at this to give them a sense of everything they didn't get right with their game...

 

[starry sonata]

OMG. Can't believe this image is still applies to Odyssey.

 

[TheDinoman]

Speaking of which, the Yooka-Laylee team should take a long, hard, introspective, ponderous look at this to give them a sense of everything they didn't get right with their game...

I mean, let's be fair here: Yooka-Laylee was a dinky little Kickstarter project. Mario Odysessy on the other hand is an AAA EPD production. Of course it was always gonna get trounced.

I feel like a lot of the problems with YL was that they didn't have the budget or resources to make a fully realized and polished 3D platformer on par with the N64 Banjos, both of which were AAA games back in their day. You can definitely see this by how they had to cut corners by constantly reusing enemies and NPCs throughout the levels.

I'd like to see Playtonic hook up with Nintendo for a potential sequel. I think, with the proper guidance and budget, they could make something solid. We just got a well received Metroid game from MercurySteam of all people, and it's all because Nintendo gave them the right resources and proper direction. Perhaps Playtonic could use the same thing.

 

[Sanctuary]

The Galaxy and 3D Land/World games were good enough, but this seriously looks like the true successor to Mario 64 to me. I was already holding out on getting a Switch until more games were released, and this was going to be the one I was looking forward to the most. With the announcement of a few of the other games that will arrive this year, I'll be able to buy another Nintendo system without having to worry about buyer's remorse.

Unless of course they frontloaded everything, and the next two years will be dry.

animal crossing of the wild odyssey

GOAT of the GOATs


If metroid prime 4 follows the same level of quality of botw (my GOAT) and smo (probably mario GOAT), i won't be able to handle this generation

Come on man dont be a girl fetishist

Or would it be a guy fetishist in this case.

Gotta agree because of the bolded. I'd like to see them work on something together too.

Fuck man this really does look like best Mario since Mario 64. Wowzer bowzer.

Maybe they should become a Nintendo Second Party and get guidance from them again.

 

[sinonobu]

This game looks waay too good....

2017 what a wonderful year for gamers

this gif makes me so happy

Sex appeal yes.

And guess what..

 

[Zubz]

I am very intrigued by this.

It's like, when I thought they couldn't sell me on this any more, they just did it.

I love Twitter.

I thought that dude returned to the depths of the Earth? That said, nice.

Did anyone else notice the original blonde Pauline shows up on street art in this trailer? Plus DK's arcade design himself.

 

[added_time]

This game looks like it's going to make me blast through hundreds of hours. Easily the most impressive thing I've seen since... Mario 64 I guess?

Yep. Absolutely incredible.
