after nearly 10 months since playing through almost all of the mainline Super Mario games I finally got the chance to grab an Switch and play this game, it was really worth the wait.

Super Mario Odyssey is nearly perfect in terms of game feel, Mario's movement is such an joy to mess around, the controls are incredibly tight and fluid.

Cappy is an great new addition for the series, the hat has a lot of movement/attack options and the capture mechanic screams Nintendo's inventiveness and creativity when creating these games.

the presentation is equally phenomenal, looks gorgeous and amazing music as usual.

speaking about some of the issues I felt that some of the moon collectibles were a bit too easy to collect, a lot of them can be simply be bought from a shop or simply scattered in the open without any challenge, boss fights were in the easy side as well but I still enjoyed them.

overall Super Mario Odyssey has some of the most perfect controls and movement I ever seen in an 3D platformer, fantastic presentation, great level-design and exploration, it's such an complete and polished package all around, 3D platforming fans and Switch owners can't miss this.
