I found it a little frustrating at first having very little control over the camera in a 3D game. As the levels get bigger in scope though it's becoming less of a nuisance.
1. Split Joycons (how the game was originally designed to be played)
2. Pro Controller (pointer controls work remarkably well though re-centering can be sort of a pain)
3. Handheld

Told my son he had a surprise waiting for him when he got home tonight from daycare. I hope the co-op isn't too overwhelming for him.

They weren't kidding about the sped up movement in SM3DW.

Game looks and plays beautifully. But I’ll keep on playing Galaxy for now. Having too much fun.
Haven’t played either before, and it won’t disappear.

Pretty surprised by how quickly my son has taken to the controls. The detached joycon is the perfect size for his hands. He really wants to "win" each level.

I’m obsessed with stars and stamps, so if I play with my wife and her son and we miss something, they get mad because I want to go back and do the level again.

Me too. But I've taught myself to just move on to the next level and leave anything I missed as a reason to come back to the level later.

Re: It's-a Me, Mario: A Mario Thread
I've determined that I can only play Super Mario World 3D with one other person, and only if that person lets me lead and goes where I want to go to look for stuff. We tried with 3 people last night and I just had to step away after two levels.

I think we can, as long as your objective isn't "run as fast as you can to the end of the level" every time.Monkey_Driven wrote:So you don't want to play online?E.H.

I'm a collector. I hate the timer in these levels though.E.H.

Not sure. One of them beat the game on Assist with a little help from me here and there. The other one is hopeless with the controls but loves to watch his bro play.Monkey_Driven wrote:How many moons do they have?Bammer wrote:My kids are legit addicted to Odyssey.
