Controls

Unlike most other videos games presently on the market, Super Mario Odyssey features a variety of controls that players will use while playing. These include not only the basic movements for Mario, but also the attacks and actions he has, as well as what Cappy brings to the table. Most of these actions can be done simply by pressing certain buttons and joysticks; however, some attacks, like when tossing and using Cappy, can be down using the motion sensory of the controller. if you ever need a refresher on all the things Mario can do, you can refer back to the Help Menu option. Most of Mario's movements and attacks tend to fall under two different categories: Basic Controls & Basic Actions.
