So is Odyssey going to be the best mario yet? I think so.
>>389212812
Source me. New video somewhere?
>>389213269
some nerds figured it out by looking at the map printed in the packaging of the new amiibos.

That's neat and all, but I already knew that we hadn't seen all the kingdoms. Nintendo never reveals everything about a game before it comes out.
>last level is probably going to be the Mushroom Kingdom instead of the Moon
>>389213874
Yeah, you're right, it's just that I've seen a lot of people here bitching about the lack of kingdoms.
>>389214116
I fully expect the moon. Between collecting moons, it always being present and the whole Japanese thing about Rabbits and the Moon.
Aren't kindgoms just single levels
>>389215432
As far as we know, yes.
>>389215432
They are like stages, I think, like the same way Mario 64 had paintings but with multiple stars, only bigger.
>>389212812
>>389216720
I don't have the money or time to play that shit but I'm way too hype not to play what is going to probably be the first good mario in fullHD
I hope all of Peach's Castle is in the gameplus one fully playable painting level plz
>>389212812
The game seems to be a lot more based off Sunshine than 64, which I don't mind. Some gameplay here for anyone interested

im looking forward to this game. it looks like its gonna be a lot of fun.
>>389219559
damn, just saw the video, it looks fun as hell.
>>389212812
This game looks so fucking Good!
Mushroom Kingdom better be a level we actually get to explore and not just a cut-scene like it was in Galaxy.
>>389219559
Well, sunshine was a pretty natural evolution of 64 so it makes sense. Sunshine was mainly shit due to the camera making platforming overly difficult.
>>389220280
Yeah, it got me pretty excited, I hope that we'll be able to explore the castle too, like >>389217143 said
>>389219559
Looking at this I realized just how much I've missed 3D Mario since Galaxy.
3D World was good and all, but it doesn't compare to this.
>>389220518
meant to say >>389217714
>>389219559
>that Jaxi music
Looks fun to drive as well
>>389219559
Isn't it a little weird that you're supposed to jump into the quicksand? Seems kinda backwards..
I'm not sure I like that type of "exploration".
I'm all for experimentation, but it should at least make some sense.
>>389220915
I mean, in what other circumstance would you ever fall into the quicksand by accident? the fact that it's just sitting out there with nothing around it should pique your interest. plus you can see mist (presumably from the ice) coming out of it.
>>389220915
It draws the player in because you see this large, open area of flat quicksand and suddenly you notice this large vortex of sand, completely contrasting the rest of the landscape. It invites the player to experiment and be curious.
In my opinion it's just ingenious gameplay design.
>>389221218
>>389221362
Hivemind
>>389216720
no as long as contrarians like Jim cuck exist
>>389220915
The pause menu is a "travel guide" and it gives you a bit of a clue. It mentions huge hollows under the desert or something like that.
they should just cash in on 90s nostalgia and make mario 64 2
or even............mario 65
>>389220535
>3D World was good and all
The hell it was. I liked the concept, but the way it actually played was boring as fuck.
>>389220915
Older platformers were full of secrets like that, where you have to do something that would normally kill you
Mario 3 had a quicksand one, and donkey kong country had a few where you need to fall down a hole
>>389222680
It already exists, the mario 64 for ds is just that.
>>389220915
>I am underage
Play SMB3 faggot
>Mushroom Kingdom is actually in this world
>Isle Delfino and the neighboring islands are no where to be found
unless they're hiding them completely it's kinda weird to say that this is the first 3D sandbox Mario since Sunshine and have no mention of Sunshine
>>389214464
Don't forget that Pauline's song mentions the moon in it
>>389223648
Maybe its the small islands near the bottom? There isn't a bean kingdom either which is a little disappointing
>>389223986
Expecting anything from the RPGs is a tall order, but the Sunshine stuff bugs me because it's from the game that Nintendo straight up said is it's predecessor.
Don't forget the Moon
Moon = Extra Difficult levels after beating game
>>389224151
they might mention it. Or have a couple of Piantas hanging around in the other worlds.
>>389223648
>>389214464
>yfw the Mushroom Kingdom takes a bunch of shit from Mario 64, the Moon takes shit from Galaxy, and there actually is a kingdom that takes shit from Sunshine
why do they hate mario land
There's probably gonna be more. Everytime people think they've seen everything from the maps, more always turn up.
>>389224332
>final bowser fight takes place on the moon
>Literally Galaxy-style planet-wrapping gameplay
>Become asteroids
This is going to be insanity
>>389224374
Because its shit.
I kind of wonder though if mushroom kingdom is actually playable as a kingdom or it's just used to set up the story like in galaxy?
>>389224374
The Mo-Eye's are clearly based on Mario Land. They're even in the desert level.
>>389224475
It'll contain Peach's Castle + every single level
Chains of love is playing in my head as I celebrate the existence of the mushroom kingdom in Odessy. Who's with me?
>>389224475
It is most likely where the wedding and final boss will be.
>>389224625
nah, that'll probably be the moon
>all this fantastic shit being revealed every single day
>wario and waluigi won't get even a mention
It's fucking suffering liking this guy
>>389224671
Mario will be able to possess asteroids or the moon itself
or
Let's just possess planets
>>389219559
that looks pretty good
How big is each kingdom?
>>389224736
>final boss is Katamari-tier insanity with Mario and Bowser progressively possessing larger celestial bodies like planets, suns,dyson spheres, andQPUS
shit, this game already has 10 levels and there are probably more not revealed
64 had 15 and sunshine 8. will it break 15? will this be the best mario ever made??
>>389220667
It is. I played it at a convention this weekend, and it's tons of fun. Only thing that threw me off is it can't jump.
>>389224901
About the size of a sunshine level. Maybe bigger.
>>389224917
>Toppa Tengen Super Mario
>>389224901
Each kingdom seems to have a "main" area, a major sublevel or two, and various platforming sections strewn about. There's also some sort of day/night mechanic that changes up things as well.
In terms of sheer size, it seems to vary. New Donk is roughly the same size as a 64 stage at ground level, but Tostarena is fucking massive (but there's a lot of seemingly empty space).
>>389224980
i feel over 10 is going to be overkill. the levels look huge and with so many moons, we're already looking at 400+ of them. that's getting to be a bit much imo
>>389225628
as long as its varied and interesting, you can never have to much.
>>389216720
It'w wont be 100. probably 99 or 98 cause of >>389222026
>>389224374
they clearly like it since Odyssey is essentially a 3d version of it
>>389224421
>posess asteroid
>ride it into bowser
>rinse and repeat>possess bowser
>>389226136
>Bowser can possess things with his hat, too
>last boss is possessed Peach
>>389226136
>Bowser crashes back down to the planet and possesses a T-Rex in New Donk City
>realistic dinosaur Bowser fight
>>389224697
At least Wario has his own games, Waluigi only shows up in party, sports, and Olympic games.
>>389220915
Fuck off child.
>>389226525
there is one, though....
