14''Super Mario Odyssey'' is the first main series game in the ''[[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Mario]]'' franchise for the Platform/NintendoSwitch, released on October 27, 2017. After the more linear level designs of the ''[[VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy Galaxy]]'' [[VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy2 duology]] and ''[[VideoGame/SuperMario3DLand 3D]]'' [[VideoGame/SuperMario3DWorld duology]], ''Odyssey'' marks a return to the more [[CollectAThonPlatformer exploration-based formula]] used by ''[[VideoGame/SuperMario64 64]]'' and ''[[VideoGame/SuperMarioSunshine Sunshine]]''.

16Bowser has once again kidnapped Princess Peach, this time with the intent of [[AndNowYouMustMarryMe forcing her to marry him]], and Mario must leave the Mushroom Kingdom, journeying to fantastic other worlds to save her. This time, however, he's not alone. Joining him on his journey is a spirit named Cappy, who's aiming to rescue his sister Tiara from the Koopa King, as he's using her as Peach's wedding tiara. Realizing the two share a common goal, Cappy possesses Mario's hat and allows Mario himself to [[BodySurf Capture]] things, ranging from enemies to bystanders to nearby objects.
17
18On his journey around the world, Mario will have to travel to various Kingdoms (based on real-life regions) and [[GottaCatchThemAll collect Power Moons]] to power the titular Odyssey, the ship Cappy uses to travel. Opposing Mario are Bowser and his army, as well as the [[QuirkyMinibossSquad Broodals]]- a group of five [[HairRaisingHare rabbit]] wedding planners who are aiding Bowser in stealing various items for the wedding, and were also hired to stop Mario.

30->''Kick off the wall and take the plunge\
31Tripping through two dimensions\
32Up on the moon we'll twirl and swoon\
33Just lead the way! (and I'll follow you)\
34I'll throw my hat in the ring 'cause you're the one\
35A miracle in three dimensions\
36Follow the brick path straight to my heart\
37And we'll grab the flag together\
38The fireworks are gonna start!''
