This product is like new. At NexWave Games, like new means:
Additionally, all discs at NexWave Games are carefully inspected and assessed for quality. When discs arrive, we do not accept any that are so badly damaged that they are unlikely to work. We only accept discs with light scratches at most. Discs with scratches are then treated in our professional disc repair machine. By warming the disc and polishing it with soft brushes, these machines can remove a very thin layer from the disc. This removes the layer containing surface scratches and improves the disc’s readability. This ensures the disc works properly, even on consoles with ageing lasers that have difficulty reading games! Great news for the player.
Super Mario Odyssey for Nintendo Switch
Super Mario Odyssey sends Mario between varied kingdoms aboard the Odyssey while pursuing Bowser. Cappy works as an attack and jump platform, but can also capture animals, enemies and objects, using their movement to open new routes. Power Moons fuel the ship and sit behind platform challenges, puzzles and hidden places. A second player can control Cappy locally with another controller; the core campaign remains fully playable solo. Controls, objectives and progression were checked separately for this Nintendo Switch version, keeping the description tied to the offered game card without promising later edition content.
Super Mario Odyssey builds progression around exploring large kingdoms, throwing Cappy, capturing enemies and finding Power Moons. New objectives bring systems together and demand increasing awareness. You learn which actions, equipment or routes fit a situation and immediately notice when timing or preparation can improve. This gives the campaign a clear rhythm without attributing features from other platforms or later reissues to this Nintendo Switch game card.
This description covers the physical Nintendo Switch edition of Super Mario Odyssey. This original game card did not include a full paper game manual; controls, objectives and guidance are provided in the game and through electronic support. Extra controllers, download codes and subscription services are included only when explicitly stated with the product.
Region and language
Our Nintendo Switch games are European editions and come with a Dutch or English box, unless stated otherwise. By default, you receive the version for the European market. We note it in the product details if the region is different or the box is in another language. In almost all cases, the game is playable at least in English, and often in the other five common European languages too.
Manual
Super Mario Odyssey for Nintendo Switch was originally released without a printed manual. This edition therefore does not come with a separate instruction booklet. Its absence does not mean that an item from the original packaging is missing.
Instructions for the controls and rules are provided in the game. Any additional leaflets or advertising inserts are not manuals and are only included if stated in the product details. We use the label “No Manual” for copies missing a manual that was originally supplied. You should therefore not expect a printed booklet with this game unless a special edition explicitly states otherwise.
The history of Super Mario Odyssey
Nintendo EPD developed Super Mario Odyssey; Nintendo released the Nintendo Switch edition on 27 oktober 2017. The project found its place in the series through exploring large kingdoms, throwing Cappy, capturing enemies and finding Power Moons. This physical version is treated as the original Nintendo Switch release, so later patches, downloads, remasters and sequels are not silently added to the game card. Art direction, controls and progression were also reviewed in the original release context, keeping collectable content separate from later service changes.
The release arrived in a generation where larger worlds, faster storage and network services increasingly sat beside game-card content. Campaign, local features and edition content are therefore separated here from accounts, servers and loose codes. This clarifies what historically belonged to Super Mario Odyssey and what was a later or external provision. Art direction, controls and progression were also reviewed in the original release context, keeping collectable content separate from later service changes.
The Nintendo Switch edition of Super Mario Odyssey was checked separately for platform, product title, delivery and original instructions. The description preserves this version's technical and content boundaries. Historical online features are not promised as available, while demonstrable solo and local game-card content remains the baseline. Art direction, controls and progression were also reviewed in the original release context, keeping collectable content separate from later service changes.
