2001: A Mario Odyssey

Samurai Mario is awesome and should have been in the game.
 
I have a feeling they will include him for some reason. I mean, if they have even made a tribute to that one obscure Mario Golf game.

as far as I know, the 2D vector art came first, like a few years ago (I used it for my summer Steam avatar for instance). No one really noticed until Super Mario Odyssey popularized it.

I just saw the first video because it's overwhelming otherwise. Aww, Mario sleeps again. Very cute. Not as noisy as I remember it though. And also, that bird, so cute lol. Wonder what species it is. :P

Actually, from what I know the artwork was released on Play Nintendo in 2016, I personally uploaded it to the wiki. This is why I was talking about SMO prototype. At the Switch teaser there was already a mostly worknig Super Mario Odyssey.
 
Odyssey's probably the first game in my entire Internet presence that I would rather avoid spoilers than gorge on them as they come. I want to experience everything I don't already know when playing :P

Though I'm sure I'll cave.
 
I totally agree. I just want to know basic information like the Kingdoms (and some of them at that), but not the precise locations of the power moons, that's a spoiler to avoid.
 
I just avoid Super Mario Odyssey information altogether.
 
The Cascade Kingdom may be the same level as the tropical poison lake Kingdom. Maybe there's a transition similar to 64's Tiny-Huge island, or something more complex, but the connections are there.

Firstly, the obvious one:

Both areas have the same colour of Power Moon.

They're both yellow. Every Kingdom shown so far has a unique colour for these; New Donk City's bronze, Steam Garden's blue or Bubblaine's purple. However, as you can see in these images:
