10 Things You Didn't Know About Super Mario Odyssey

10. Isle Delfino Makes A Surprise Appearance

Yes, that's right, Isle Delfino of Super Mario Sunshine fame actually appears in Super Mario Odyssey.

While you can't walk around the place that served as the hub world for Gamecube's only proper Mario title, Peach's favourite summer resort does make a cameo appearance in the game world's map.

Being quite a small island compared to the gargantuan kingdoms of Odyssey, this Easter Egg is easy to miss, but serves as a rewarding sight for eagle-eyed gamers. Given the stellar reconstruction of Super Mario 64's Mushroom Kingdom at the end of the game and constant references to that classic Nintendo 64 title throughout, it's nice to see the dark horse of the franchise getting some love.

While it's unclear whether Isle Delfino was originally supposed to be a playable area in the game before being cut (it might have been a bit too similar to the Seaside Kingdom, after all), the inclusion of this fan-favourite location is great to see. Just make sure we can actually visit it in the sequel, eh, Nintendo? Seriously, Piantas deserve more love.
