The 18 weirdest things I saw in Nintendo's big new Mario game that's about to launch

I never thought I'd see a shirtless Mario running along the beach, nipples and all, but here we are.

This is emblematic of the supreme silliness of "Super Mario Odyssey," the next big game coming to Nintendo's Switch. If you remember "Super Mario 64," "Super Mario Odyssey" is basically that, but bigger, better looking — and way weirder.

I got a chance to play the game recently, and during that session I found a bunch of things that are at least as strange as the image above.

Here, for example, is another real image from the game, which I captured while playing it:

"Super Mario Odyssey" is quite a game. Let's dive in!

In "Super Mario Odyssey," you explore vast open worlds.

The point is to find moons to power your ship, the Odyssey, from place to place.

In this scene, Mario is exploring one such place — Bubblaine — while wearing some polka dot swim trunks.

That by itself isn't all that strange. What is crazy is what's going on with Mario's hat.

The ability to explore worlds is pretty similar to "Super Mario 64."

What's new is how Mario's hat is being haunted by a ghost. He can use it to take over other characters or items in the game by tossing it onto them

With the hat, you can take over a person.
