Mario Odyssey HYPE THREAD

This... THIS is exactly what I wanted from the next mario game.

It's weird, it's creative, and most of all it's got open levels with lots of exploration and secrets to find.

I am so hyped for the game guys... I cannot contain it

My only complaint is that Bowser is the villain yet again... But what are ya gonna do?

They shit the bed on the name though.

Why not New Super Mario World?

Super Mario Universe

>complaining about bowser.
the whole game isn't about you trying to stop bowser and his new mcguffin. It is crashing a wedding.

>Wanting the game title to have anything to do with new super mario

Who gives a fuck, based Crash is coming again maybe even for you switchbros(even tho i doubt it). finally a platformer where you can actually die

I'm just salty about bowser pretty much ALWAYS being the villain.

I know it's tradition and all... But I know Nintendo is capable of coming up with new and way cooler enemies than bowser (Count Bleck, Grodus, Fawful, Cackletta etc.)

I find bowser to be a much more fun character as a reluctant ally, the main character, or even just a side villain (ala dream team)

I don't. But the naming convention is too good to pass up since it is all about going all across the planet.
Universe is stupid since it never showed mario leaving the planet.

>MARI
>first mainline mario game where peach is set to wed bowser

POETRY

Who are those weird evil bunnies, though?

Is it supposed to look like shit?

>new game? but what about remaster of old game? check mate.

It's a compressed jpeg screenshot from a youtube live stream...

Of course it's going to look better on your hd tv

Why the FUCK does this game look like so much fun

why not just mario switch?
its a way better name

>crazy caps is an ingame company
>Everyone is wearing hats
>Crazy caps CEO is using evil hat tech to control bowser, the bunnies, and the human populace
>Fight hat CEO at the end as final boss

Thoughts?

Who the fuck thought that mario in the real world was a good idea? Looks awful

So, how does the "realistic" world aspect fit into it? It feels so strange to be in the game alongside everything else.

Yes

I would be completely satisfied with this

>post yfw Mario crossing parallel universes is cannon now

>Who the fuck thought that mario in the real world was a good idea? Looks awful
I would agree with you but then I saw him jumping rope with the people and was charmed incredibly.

>mario game about crashing a wedding

It was forced by Count Bleck, though

Bowser is doing the forcing this time

It's not the real world. It's new Donk City, wioth Dixie Street, Cranky Main or Sqwak park.

It's fuckign Big City from earlier DK games.

My only disappointment is that Bowser doesn't seem to have his pimpmobile from 3D World. Would've gone perfectly with his outfit in this game.

Why is bowser trying to marry peach when rosalina exists?

Asides from that flaw I'm sold on this game

>yfw you realize crazy caps is a metaphor for modern valve and it's fans

I have a feeling the name implies Mario will take a journey into different worlds so I guess the realism in the city is a good contrast to this world where everything looks like a dream.

BING BING

The hat eyes are off-putting and I worry the hat will be the next star spin waggle gimmick and you won't be able to button map it

Everything else about it looks absolutely perfect though

I'm just so fucking glad I don't have to see the koopalings AGAIN.

Because Sunshine wasn't called Mario Gamecube. Galaxy wasn't called Mario Wii.
Because they can't call it Super Mario World 2.

feels fucking amazing

my nigga

Oh shit I forgot about that

Yes

>HDTV
>hd
>Nintendo

Why would it not? You're exploring interesting and open locales with familiar high quality 3D Mario platforming mechanics.
This is perhaps a bit complacent, but what more do you need?

That world looks like an indie game.

why all this koopaling hate?

Objectively looks good

aside from the mario '06 area and the untextured area

oversaturation
they're in everything now, and this usually means every major boss fight is a koopaling, which gets damn boring

the untextured area is actually my favorite looking of the bunch

>7 of them so every bossfight will be a koopaling
>They all have the same gimmick of "cast spells"
>Made Paper Jam suck
>Only relationship with Bowser nowadays is he's their boss

>Wendy is DISGUSTING literally Birdo tier

yeah got masturbate to every no-game over in steam greenlight if you like that minimalist shit

>Made Paper Jam suck
Perhaps they contributed, but they certainly didn't turn an otherwise great game into a bad game.

It looks good. Fuck off.

no, it doens't, rofl

>My only complaint is that Bowser is the villain yet again
What?

yeah, well i like grow home and it looks kinda similar to that, so whatever. Whine more, bitch

>Crystal vegetable land
>Why are the vegetables crystals?
????

What do you not understand about that statement?

I believe that I was very clear

What's the problem here? Am I supposed to see something that looks bad?

Literally the only good thing about Switch

I would buy a Switch if they also put out a Mario Maker 2

This is the mario game they promised to me in the 90s.

I will finally get high on meth, dmt, and xanax to this game.

Those are for spin off games. You go too far off the rails you will get Sonic Adventure all over again.

Who gives a shit about Trash when Yooka Laylee is on the way

TRUST ME AND WE WILL ESCAPE FROM DONK CITY

Splatoon 2 looks solid for actually being all new stuff unlike MK8 with more stuff.

what's even better is the guy is wearing a fedora.

And rabbits.

>fucking inverted pyramid

that shit looked amazing

I think that looks pretty good.

They were also ignored in 3D Land and 3D World, as was Bowser Jr, dumb cucks

True 3D Mario is always just "Mario, Bowser, and that princess cunt".

>Instead of Koopalings, Mario has to fight Easter bunny rejects from the Mushroom Kingdom equivalent of the Deep South

I don't like the NSMB vibe. Everything looks like it's made of cheap plastic

This is honestly the most disappointing thing for me.

I hate sandbox Mario games, and it just looks terrible. The clashing styles, the environments are generic and the music is nowhere near as good as anything in a Mario game before.

So wish they stuck with the Galaxy/3D formula.

Are we seriously calling this a sandbox? This is about Sunshine size.

fukken saved
kek

Really makes you think

How do you know?

Mario 64 is where the Mario timeline split.
In timeline B, Mario aligns his QPUs correctly during Watch for Rolling Rocks and manages to get the star in half an A press.
In timeline A, Mario gets misaligned with the QPU grid and ends up in the world of Oddyssey. Unable to return to the Mushroom Kingdom, he takes up residence in Brooklyn. This is where the Mario Super Show happens. Super Mario Bros. 3 takes place in this timeline. It's a hit play that Mario puts on based on his time in the Mushroom Kingdom. With the money from his smash success play he begins to throw lavish parties and dabble in a variety of sports.

Discuss.

Sonic 06

>nu-males who prefer shitty linear stages in a fucking 3D environment getting BTFO
based nintendo

Chaos was a cool villain. I liked his concept

he just didnt really fit into a sonic game

and besides, that was the least of the game's problems...

I don't know if this is funnier or if this is

>The clashing styles
That's intentional though, they're different dimensions or some shit. Did you also complain about every chapter in Super Paper Mario having a different art style?

...

The city is not a hub. It's a level.

So it went back to Mario 64 levels.
Replaying levels for different objectives.
I'm ok with that. bummer though.
Better than linear stages.

>This... THIS is exactly what I wanted
Please, as if it makes any difference. You're a fanboy. You would be pleased with anything anyway.

That's exactly what they meant by sandbox though. Mario 64/Sunshine style.

>it's an endless runner

>The Watch for Rolling Rocks video was uploaded exactly one year before Odyssey was announced

I think he's talking about how Eggman's role as a villain was heavily diminished in most of the games from Adventure onwards.

Those are far from """"""sandboxes""""""

That's fucking disgusting.

>Better than linear stages.

No.

I'd rather have 80 different linear stages all unique to eachother than 10 same "worlds" to go through 8 times each. That's fucking boring.

Mario should not be open/sandbox.

The S3K manual hinted at Chaos long before Adventure.

The name makes more sense than that one. And I'm tired of the overuse of the word "new".

>Mario should not be open/sandbox
Who made you the arbiter of all things Mario?

Your tears are delicious.

Fucking hell, I'm super hype about the Crash remasters but let the Nintenyearolds enjoy this, stupid console war faggot. It's a legitimately great-looking Mario game.

Not him but as someone who likes all the 3D Marios so far, I think both styles can coexist. I'm sure they'll switch off between the two styles in general for the future.

>The S3K manual hinted at Chaos long before Adventure.
What?

ive been watching way too much squidbillies

Fuck you nigger bitch. We've had like 10 linear Mario games in the past 5 years. It's time for the good shit to come back. Lick my dick faggot.

yeah just add "new" to an old game title, fucking great idea.

>wahoo
>*coink*
>oof!
>ohwaowaowowaowa
>*waooohh*
>dun-dun-de-dun-de-dun-dun dun dun

Anything looks beter than plastic Mario in faggotland. This may not look as good as Galaxy, but is way better than NSMB and 3D World. Fuck you.

>oh wow this looks really cool. I can totally get behind thi-
>mario rides a lion

Awww, so no Yoshi? I noticed there aren't any toads or Koopa kids either. Are Mario, peach, bowser, and his minions the only characters that are Mario related?
