Forums - Gaming Discussion - Super Mario Odyssey is Brilliant! What if the plot is.....

I haven't been this hyped for a Mario game since the first Galaxy. This game looks awesome! I'm also quite in love with the Sonic Adventures vibe... but what if we have it wrong?

What if it's actually the Mario Bro's movie in reverse?




In the movie Mario and Luigi are real world people from New York City that go to the Mushroom Kingdom. They end up going there by going into a manhole to the sewers that takes him to another dimension. The basic plot of Super Mario Odyssey is that Mario somehow ends up in another dimension that resembles the real world's New York City by coming out of a manhole. He's originally from the Mushroom Kingdom. This is actually a pretty cool jab at the movie and made me smile pretty hardcore. Love or hate the movie, it's still a classic.

Mario and Luigi have always been from Brooklyn, not just in the movie. At least that's what I remember from my childhood and the Super Mario Bros. Super Show.

Oh right. I might have taken the Italian stuff too personally as a child then >.> xD
I thought they were always native to the Mushroom Kingdom in terms of canon. Which I don't think the Super Show is.




The city is just one of the worlds in the game you know, the game is like 64/Sunshine only each level is open world.



Lmao that's exactly what my brother said to me when it was revealed. It's Super Mario Bros The Movie The Game, and I love it

Mario also has talented developers behind it though...

Its still almost a year until it launches.



For me it personally takes way some of the magic actually. If it is just a level sure and than I like how unique it is from other levels. But I also love the colourful and bright Musroom kingdom thematic worlds. If the whole game on the other hand isn't featuring those kind of worlds I am not so sure.



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar
