What's neat here is that he wakes up based on the gyro sensor in the Joy-con. Or, while strolling through the city, Mario moves his head and eyes to look at environmental detail placed around the world.Īlso, when Mario falls asleep while sitting still, he dreams about pasta. Toss your cap at a hydrant and it spouts water, and Mario's dripping wet as a consequence. Taken individually they're cute but hardly revelatory, but together they help to build something more refined and cohesive.įor instance, if you roll down a hill, the developers apply a dirt texture layer to Mario but if you jump in a nearby pool of water, it's washed right off.
We can talk about resolution and performance metrics - and they are key to the experience in many ways - but what shouldn't be overlooked are the smaller touches that demonstrate just how much care and attention has gone into this title. In fact, Super Mario Odyssey pushes the Switch hardware hard to the point where the quality of the presentation just about holds together, but it's safe to say that the seams are stretched to their limits in some scenarios. It's an impressive feat but not without compromises. Not only is this the first exploration-focused 3D Mario title in 15 years, it's also the first to run at 60fps on a portable console. It's packed with interesting concepts, tight gameplay and sheer character - this is Nintendo delivering its A-game, a brilliant combination of fresh, bright ideas and exceptional technology. It's been a long time since the release of Super Mario Sunshine, but for those eagerly awaiting a return to the series' 3D exploratory theme, Super Mario Odyssey is a superb follow-up.
