Super Mario Odyssey was also very well received and sold over 2 million copies shortly after its release. Many players feel that the game is reminiscent of Super Mario 64. You probably do not have to guess the story in this game. To put it briefly, you control Mario in his quest to rescue Princess Peach from Bowser. Super Mario Odyssey, the plumber's first visit to the Nintendo Switch console since it launched, is a pretty massive game, featuring collectibles, bosses, and secrets scattered across a multitude.

In Super Mario Odyssey, the usual Power Stars of the Mushroom Kingdom have been replaced by Power Moons. These collectible items are found all over the various Kingdoms in the game, and are used.

Earn extra Power Moons and follow the travails of the Desert Wanderer as he explores the many fanciful kingdoms in Super Mario Odyssey.

This humble dweller of Tostarena Town wants to see the big, wide world — and he doesn’t have a hat-shaped flying machine like Mario. Instead, he settles for a taxi. How does the taxi reach kingdoms on the other side of the ocean? Your guess is as good as our’s.

Like Princess Peach and other explorers, the Desert Wanderer will appear in a series of locations. You’ll want to make a quick pit-stop and find him for the bonus Power Moon collectibles he provides, and to simply enjoy his little side-story. Here’s where to find him.

The Desert Wanderer won’t start, ahem, wandering until after you’ve defeated the Sand Kingdom boss and freed the desert from an chilly predicament. When the giant blocks of ice are gone, the taxi driver will appear in Tostarena Town, and the Desert Wander’s journey will begin.
