News:: Do you think we'll get a Mario Odyssey 2 on Switch?

The dust has settled, and people still like Mario Odyssey 2. It's one of the best-reviewed games of all time, and pretty much every anecdotal tale I've heard has been positive. Also, it's the fastest-selling Mario to date -- yeah, there's probably going to be another Mario sooner than later.

Which kind of Mario will that be though? You have the weird, experimental type of stuff like Paper Mario (which could easily work on Switch, and will probably come in two to three years), the traditional 2D kind of stuff, and the 3D adventures. While nothing is certain (will they keep the New subseries going?), I do think we're going to get a Mario Odyssey 2 in the same vein as Galaxy 2 on the Wii U. This worked out brilliantly for Nintendo sales-wise, and Galaxy 2 specifically is my favorite Mario to date.

The first and the second Galaxy were nearly three years apart, so I'd put money on Odyssey 2 appearing at an E3 in a few years. One thing is for sure though even if Nintendo somehow sits on Mario on the Switch for a while -- it's an exciting time for the console, with developers scrambling to make games for it after realizing it's a hit. Future E3s have the potential to be pretty great.
