I have a huge Mario gap in my gaming history because I ended up going: nes > Sega Genesis > ps1 > ps2 > ps3/wii > PC gaming (where I am today) there's a lot I missed from Nintendo over the years but I recently played through this game and I personally loved how original and new/fresh it felt. Definitely reminded me of how i felt about Mario 3 on nes when I first played it.

What say you? Did you enjoy it? Want to see this become a new series in the Mario saga?

Agreed, I wasn't even that excited for Odyssey (Mario Sunshine and Galaxy 1/2 just didn't really capture me the same way Mario 64 did). But man, was I in for a surprise. Once I started, I literally couldn't think of playing anything else until the very end. It really is a masterpiece in game design for just simply being fun.

So yeah, I'd love for the next Mario game to iterate on what made Odyssey so great. Wonder is fun and it's good, but it isn't close to being Odyssey good.

I'll have to check out Odyssey. What is that for? The Wii? The switch? (Both?)
