Super Mario Odyssey is already a best seller on the UK and US Switch eShop

Hardly surprising to believe, I know, but Super Mario Odyssey is already kicking butt before the game's even dropped on the general population.

Launching tomorrow, Super Mario Odyssey has already taken the gaming world by storm with the majority of people either super-hyped for the game or have already leapt to praise it as one of the best Mario games to date. This includes our own Jon Mundy who thought very highly the game indeed, enough so to give it a rare-as-Rudolf Platinum Award in its review.

"Wild, Weird, and packed full of imagination, Super Mario Odyssey is the first platform exclusive that every Switch owner needs to own." I can't confirm nor deny this until the weekend but judging by the tons of other reviews going up I'd say it's pretty accurate.

Currently sitting comfortably at the number-two sport in the charts in both the UK and US (at the time of this post), that says a lot about players' opinions and excitement regarding Ninty's newest Mario game.
