My nearly 8-year-old son had a blast playing with me, but the funny thing about co-op is the more people you add, the more chaotic it gets. It could be fun to play with friends, especially since I don't see anyone in person much anymore. That's pretty new to Mario games, and it works along with two-player co-op at home. There's a bonus online multiplayer mode that lets others join in, co-op style, from somewhere else. If you've already played Super Mario 3D World on the Switch, it's all mainly the same, with zippier speeds and crisper graphics. It's so easy to fall to your doom on levels like this. It's like the old Super Mario 3D Land on the 3DS, but better. The quick courses, their flagpole finishes and the drama added by a ticking clock give the game a much quicker feel than the fantastic and more open-world Super Mario Odyssey. The game kind of meshes classic Mario platformers with newer 3D ones, elevating a view above a 3D course that you hop and bop along with a time limit on each.

It was really the only truly great Wii U Mario game. I played this game way back in 2013, and loved it then. If you're looking for another great multiplayer Switch game, this might be for you.

It's maybe the best four-player Mario game around (besides the DIY Mario Maker game, which is more about course construction, or New Super Mario Bros U, which is a 2D Mario game). Super Mario 3D World, a port of a Wii U game that came out in 2013, is better than all of those. It's the 35th anniversary of Mario and Nintendo has released classic Mario 3D games, a Mario Kart game with a real car and a free online Mario battle royale game. There are a lot of Mario games for the Nintendo Switch. In Super Mario 3D World, more people is less helpful.
