I just got a nintendo switch 2 and I'm looking to buy a first mario game (with co-op possible). Theres several mario games out there.

I'm looking for something closely resembling mario 64 DS: exploration, platforming,

What would you recommend? What I have considered:

  • Mario 3D world
  • Super mario Odyssey
  • Super mario U deluxe

Any recommendation?

Also for co-op - Odyssey’s is really barebones. Player 2 controls Cappy which isn’t much, if co-op is an absolute necessity, 3D World is perfect for that.

Okay so

  • Mario 3D world
  • Mario U Deluxe
  • Mario Galaxy 1 & 2
    Are all games that are as you said classic side scrollers right?

Galaxy 1 & 2 are fully 3D games, they're the same ones that released on the Wii just remastered for a Switch release. Gameplay loop is practically the same as SM64, you have different planets and stars to grab. Odyssey is fully open for exploration and is an assortment of worlds you visit and collect 'stars' in. U Deluxe is a 2D side-scroller, and 3D World is a 3D adaptation of the classic 2D side-scrolling style, so levels are timed and you have to reach an end flag.
