スーパーマリオ オデッセイ · 超級瑪利歐 奧德賽
- Perfect: No noticeable issues start to finish
- Playable: Can be finished; minor glitches or slowdowns
- In-game: Gets in-game, but issues get in the way
- Menus: Reaches the title screen or menus only
- Boots: Starts, then hangs on a black screen or intro
- Nothing: Does not start
Yes, and it's one of the best-running big releases on both PC and Mac: Citron lists it as Perfect and Ryubing as Playable, 60fps is common in PC user reports, and a MacBook Air M1 on Ryubing is reported at 1x/60fps. MeloNX on a 16GB M4 iPad Pro is reported at 1080p/60fps, but iPhone and M1 iPad users report crashes after a while or at loading zones; as of November 1, 2026, iPhone users can also use nxnative (a native port tool, not an emulator; needs game update 1.4.1 and an iPhone 15 Pro or newer), with a playable report on an iPhone 17 Pro. On Android, Eden on chips like the Snapdragon 8 Elite is reported at 55-60fps, while a Dimensity tablet freezes in cutscenes. The known bug: opening the Action Guide freezes the game (reported on both Citron and Eden).
Settings & known issues
- Opening the Action Guide (from Cappy or the menu) freezes the game on Citron and Eden (2026 reports).
- Don't use Disable Dynamic Resolution mods. Clear the shader cache if speed drops oddly (Ryubing docs).
- Eden v0.0.3 fixed slowdowns on weak hardware, including Steam Deck, and supports update 1.4.x.
- To scan an amiibo in Ryubing, hold D-pad Right while scanning (official docs).
- Expect brief shader-compile stutter at the start of each kingdom; it smooths out once cached (user reports).
- nxnative only supports update 1.4.1; motion moves work only in the default docked mode, and a sharp flick of the phone counts as a shake.
