History Funny / SuperMarioOdyssey

* Mario's new ability to capture nearly any enemy or NPC (so long as they aren't wearing a hat that he can't knock off), with them gaining his signature mustache and cap, is sure to lead to hilariousness. Highlights include possessing a ''[[KingOfTheDinosaurs T. rex]]'', a ''human businessman'', '''''and [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers a taxi cab!]]''''' (though only the first can be used as part of the normal gameplay). He can even capture inanimate objects, such as trees, boulders, cacti, and ''traffic cones'', and hop around in them!
** "[[WebOriginal/DoubleToasted Another black man being passed up by a cab.]]" Except this time, the taxi's sentient, to an extent.
*** Speaking of taxi cabs, when you jump on them, they squeak like squeaky toys.

* When you defeat Cookatiel in the Luncheon Kingdom, she will lose the strength to fly and will fall into the boiling stew of the arena. Later, Volbonans in the post-game will say something about [[BlackComedy the stew being "stewier" and chewier this time around]].

* Early in the game, one Tostarenan is horrified by seeing [[HumanPopsicle someone stuck in the ice]]. Not because he's concerned for the person's well-being, [[SkewedPriorites but because the frozen guy owes him money]].

* All of the enemies at Bowser's wedding are wearing white formal top hats, even ''Sherms''. This includes one point where you approach a wall and a giant Bullet Bill wearing an equally giant top hat comes crashing through.

* A couple of the Power Moons in New Donk City require you to [[ViolationOfCommonSense park a scooter on top of a building]]. To get to one of them, you need to drive a scooter off the top of New Donk City Hall down to the buildings across the street and a couple hundred feet below you. The New Donkers manning the meters cheerfully note that you are the parking spots' first customer.

* Mario's [[IdleAnimation Idle Animations]] can be induced in the damnedest of places, including on top of New Donk City Hall's lightning rod, which doesn't even have enough space for him to lie down.

* Some Moons require Mario to capture a Goomba, stack on top of other Goombas, and then meet a Lady Goomba, who happily gives him the Moon. However, once Mario leaves the Goomba, the poor girl makes a [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere very hasty retreat]].

* After the final boss. In the Mushroom Kingdom, any moons you find appear as power stars and even come with the jingle from ''VideoGame/SuperMario64'' when you collect them! Triples as a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome ''and'' a SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoment.

* When possessing Chain Chompikins during the Madame Broodal fight, a Chain Chomp's barking is added to the music. It slowly gets louder until it overpowers the music.

* When you reach the Mushroom Kingdom, [[HereWeGoAgain Peach is missing again! Turns out, she just went on a vacation with Tiara.]]

** This might even steer into BlackComedy, since, if its beta name "Kogwald" is anything to go by, the Wooded Kingdom was meant to be a stand-in for Germany. That's right. Extreme German patriotism. [[ThoseWackyNazis They seriously went there.]]

* The 1.2.0 update introduced more costumes, with some set to release on later dates. Among those are the outfits the Broodals wear, complete with oversized rabbit ears.

* All of the enemies at Bowser's wedding are wearing white formal top hats, even ''tanks''. This includes one point where you approach a wall and a giant Bullet Bill wearing an equally giant top hat comes crashing through.

* Two traveling Volbonans in the postgame can be seen discussing Goombas, with one swearing they're mushrooms and the other convinced they're acorns. While it's fitting for food lovers, it's also a nice nod to the way fans have been confused by the designs. The truth just adds to the joke, as both Volbonans are wrong: in Japan, Goombas were named for their resemblance to ''chestnuts''.

-->'''Cappy:''' [[HandWave Some moons are in different shapes]]. I didn't know that.

** Wearing the Dr. Mario, Luigi, Wario, Waluigi, or [=N64=] suit outfits will cause Bowser to remark how [[MythologyGag he's seen that look before]], but can't exactly remember when.

* Eventually, inhabitants of other countries will start visiting Bubblaine � including a Steam Gardener in the hot spring. As it's a robot not meant to be submerged in water, it sits motionless at the bottom of the pool, all rusted up... but it still says it feels incredibly relaxed anyway.

* After Mario finishes the main Sand Kingdom levels, a Tostarean decides to travel the world, which he does via a taxi driven by a New Donker. Somehow, the Taxi is faster than the Odyssey if you decide to hightail it to the next location the tourist goes, even with a (not blimplike) sail put onto it.
** One location the Tostarean asks to go to is the Moon. After he requests to go somewhere new, the taxi driver says he's going to need to get a lot of fuel first. That's right, [[MindScrew they drove all the way to]] the Moon.

* The game's ending cutscene. Mario finally decides to propose to his longtime [[FlipFlopOfGod kinda-maybe girlfriend, before Bowser butts in because that's just what Bowser does. The two get so caught up with competing with each other that Peach puts her foot down ''hard'', rejecting both Bowser's ''and'' Mario's proposals, and leaving them both weeping while Mario pats Bowser on the back.]]

* In the postgame, you unlock [[the Dark Side, whose main attraction is a tower hosting a BossRush against the Broodals. However, you are free to leave the tower after each fight before the top and even go back to the Odyssey and change costumes without your progress resetting. And also unlocked to buy in the postgame are the Broodal outfits. This means you can fight each Broodal while wearing their outfit to humiliate them further in your final faceoff against them.]]
