Sign me up Super Mario Odysseymay have come out nearly four years ago (!), but people are still buying and playing it. In fact it’s still a top-seller on Switch, boasting over 20 million units sold, and taking the sixth overall spot in lifetime Switch software sales. But it didn’t come with a manual.

My grandma is ace at bowling inWii Sports— and yes that is her throwing it down in the pic above (be nice and send some positive energy her way as she’s currently in the hospital).
