'Why is Mario so small': Twitter reacts to the Nintendo Switch reveal event

The Nintendo Switch reveal event had everything you'd expect from a good Nintendo launch: off-beat executives, weird hardware quirks, and… Mario running around a city full of normal sized people in Super Mario Odyssey? That was a thing that happened, too, and Twitter had plenty to say about it.

Super Mario Odyssey had regular people and it was weird

Suda 51 talked too fast

Zelda: Breath of the Wild was just so dang pretty

The Joy-Cons had an ice cube moment

There weren't many big launch titles…

But it was still enough to get the pre-order cash flowing

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and now I'm a staff writer here at GamesRadar.
