Update: If you’re interested in seeing what the reward is, head past the break (thanks m_t).


Original: With Super Mario Odyssey version 1.2.0, it was rumored that new Hint Art was included in the game’s files. That turned out to be true – just not in the way we were expecting.

Nintendo just shared the first piece of Hint Art that had been leaked on its Twitter account. We don’t know the reward yet, but Nintendo says “you’ll get something good”. We almost certain it’s not a Power Moon, however.


Note that you’ll need version 1.2.0 installed in order to obtain the reward.

It’s always interesting to take a peek behind the curtain and get a closer look at a game’s development. On Twitter yesterday, Nintendo did just that.

A brief clip posted on the Japanese Super Mario Odyssey Twitter account gives a closer look at the making of the Odyssey take off scene in Cascade Kingdom. We’re able to see all of the different layers that went into its creation.

Here’s the GIF in question:

A few days ago, Nintendo posted a behind the scenes video for the recording of Super Mario Odyssey’s “Jump Up, Super Star!” main theme. Following up on that, we have a similar video for Shiveria Town. You can watch it below.


We also have some new concept art for the Chincho:

Even after you’ve completed the main story in Super Mario Odyssey, there’s still plenty more to do. You’ll still have more costumes to obtain, new Moons to collect, and new kingdoms to explore.

This week’s episode of Nintendo Minute has gone live. In today’s video, Kit and Krysta show off the Luigi’s Balloon World update for Super Mario Odyssey. Check out the full video below.

Nintendo posted a new behind the scenes video for Super Mario Odyssey today showing the recording of Jump Up, Super Star! – or more specifically, the instrumental music behind it. You can view this below.

Nintendo says that it considered a variety of music genres for the song, but went with a jazzy style in the end that matched the game. 17 people were brought in to record.

Nintendo isn’t done with updates for Super Mario Odyssey. It’s unclear if the game will be getting any additional free modes or paid DLC in the future, but there are at least new costumes on the way.

Thanks to last week’s update, which added Luigi’s Balloon World, we may have a pretty good idea as to what Nintendo has planned. Dataminers have plucked through the files from version 1.2.0 and have found many new hats and costumes – complete with their descriptions.

Nintendo introduced version 1.2.0 for Super Mario Odyssey last week. It added Luigi’s Balloon World, new outfits, and a couple of Snapshot Mode filters. Some other changes were made as well.

Aside from what we know about officially, it seems that 20 new thumbnails have been added. Dataminers apparently found these images contained within Super Mario Odyssey’s latest files.
