Super Mario Odyssey may be the happiest I have been playing a game. I can't really explain the feeling any differently than that. It's not the best game ever. It's not my favorite game ever. It's just fun and makes you smile the entire time. I remember playing it one time when my wife walked in. She sat next to me for half an hour and just kept commenting on how adorable the game was.

It's probably my favorite Mario game out of the whole series, but that could be recency bias from the past 8 years. I wasn't ever a big Mario 64 fan, but if you ever held that one up as a GOAT contender, then Odyssey will scratch that itch.

Does the water come from the Deku Tree pond?



Yes, that is where you collect it. Then you have to run around to each spot quickly before the time (20 min) runs out. Also just for fun they do not show you a timer lol

I don't believe you can complete this side quest until almost near end game. You need a certain item to reach certain areas.

Went ahead and pulled the trigger on Fantasy Life while I was waiting on a customer to show up for a lunch appointment.

Hopefully I'll get a chance to check it out tonight or this weekend.


Fantasy Life is a LOT of fun - always something to do in the game, and easy to pick up and play for 30 min at a time if you have a small window.

Look up the codes for free in-game sh*t - LINK

Thanks, I just played through the intro and landed on the island for the first chance I had to save it.

That one was mainly for the fiance. She likes 2D side-scrolling and I'm more into the 3D Open World at this point.

Canceled my DK preorder and will get it some other time. Will have too much to focus on while it is.. I do still have Kirby preordered for August 28 too.

I think we have DK on GameLock thru GameFly. If I like it, I'll go back and get the digital download later.

Just saw where the NSO vouchers are going away in 2026. There's no immediate plan to extend them to Switch 2 games, which is dumb. Just raise the price to $120 to keep the value intact, and extend the OG Switch games to 3 at that price.

Finally got my invite to purchase the Switch 2 bundle. Trying to decide if I want another one or want to sell it.

DK Bananza confirmed for GameLock on GameFly, but I imagine it'll take a few days to get here.

Played about an hour last night

So far it's awesome. It feels like the DK version of Odyssey

Reviews are all giving it 9's and 10s

Yeh seeing all the reviews yesterday is what has me thinking about getting it. I’m a sucker for a good platformer.

Yep. Pretty fun game so far. Like others mentioned, it feels like DK'S Mario Odyssey.
