I wasn’t able to play in a duo myself, but the AI was an absolute boon to my solo exploration, so I bet it’s going to be heaps of fun for young families in local play. It’s a more physical expansion of the co-op starbit collection mechanic in Super Mario Galaxy, if you’re familiar. He can also chuck powerups at the plumber and use his paint brush to reveal hidden shines. whacks and whomps his way through enemies, collecting coins that may be out of reach for Mario. is along for the ride to make the comparison even easier. It’s a lot like Super Mario Sunshine in that respect, and hey, Bowser Jr. Mario must fight against this by picking up cat-shaped shines and restoring colour and light to the world. His presence spreads throughout the map like crude oil, tarring up the gorgeous environments as he spins into action. In the centre is Fury Bowser’s gooey domain, and the evil dinosaur himself. The player gets dropped onto an offshore island with multiple cays splitting up the horizon. An open-world Mario game! It proves to be a genius idea, executed with care by Nintendo. It controls just as well as Super Mario Odyssey, but the beauty is in the premise. This is true, but those few hours were some of the most fun I’ve had on my Nintendo Switch in a long time. I had been told that Bowser’s Fury was quite a modest addition to the base game, and that it would be over in a few hours. But I’ll be honest, while Super Mario 3D World is a brilliant port that excels on the Nintendo Switch, all I want to talk about is the incredibly compelling sidecar expansion, Bowser’s Fury. I had a Wii U, but I still missed out on 3D World, so getting a chance to see what all the fuss is about has been very exciting.
Ever since its launch in 2017, one of the most hotly anticipated Wii U ports has been Super Mario 3D World.

Now that Nintendo has figured out the second screen portable docking situation, Wii U games are flooding onto the Nintendo Switch to get a second lease of life. However, let’s move on to the great news. It had plenty of fun and experimental ideas, typical of Nintendo, but it wasn’t refined enough to be as appealing or accessible as the monstrously popular Nintendo Switch. There’s a console with a difficult legacy as a prototype for the technology that followed. Sometimes I feel a bit sorry for the Wii U.
