Along the way, bosses lượt thích Boom Boom, Kamek, Lemmy Koopa, Morton Koopa, và of course Bowser himself will be there lớn try lớn stop you every step of the way.

What really makes the game worth a buy this time around is how perfectly it"s suited to lớn handheld.

Now you can take the Switch with you on the go and get some fun platforming in no matter what you happen lớn be doing for the day. You can simply put the system lớn sleep or vị a quick save and hop up back on the horse again — because as we all know, sometimes you"ve gotta take a few minutes away from a Mario game và come back to it or you"re going to lớn explode.
