Thankfully, Captain Toad has now made its way to the Switch and 3DS and if you missed out on the Wii U like me, there’s no time like the present to enjoy some fantastic puzzling on the go!Ĭaptain Toad is pretty light on story, with only a handful of story beats and cutscenes happening throughout the course of the game. Still, I couldn’t help but feel distraught at the time knowing Captain Toad was released on a sinking ship of a platform. However, one of the games that immediately caught my eye during the Wii U’s life-cycle (and nearly pushed me over the edge into purchasing the system) was Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker.Īs a toad enthusiast who is still baffled that after The Year of Luigi we’ve yet to experience or even hear plans for The Year of Toad, I was stoked toads everywhere were finally getting the spotlight in the form of Captain Toad. But by the time that was drawing near, the Switch was announced and right around the corner. My original plan was to wait for Breath of the Wild to release on the system before nabbing one.
Personally, I never ended up buying a Wii U. "18 years on from Super Mario 64, Nintendo's designers are still going further in their exploration of the third dimension than almost anyone else," Oli wrote in Eurogamer's Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker review.ĭownload links to get the demo are here for Nintendo Switch and here for 3DS.The pixel toad noises have been burned into my mind And next - please, Nintendo - can he be added to Smash Bros. Most recently, Captain Toad cameoed in Super Mario Odyssey. The lamp-headed Toad leader was first seen in Super Mario Galaxy, before becoming a playable character in Super Mario 3D World, from which Treasure Tracker spun-off. Originally launched for Wii U, these new versions of the game add a fresh set of levels themed around Super Mario Odyssey, plus two-player co-op on Switch.ĭon't expect too much different in the demo - although hopefully its new releases can bring Captain Toad to new, non-Wii U owning audiences. The rotatable 3D puzzle platformer can be sampled via a free demo downloadable from each console's eShop, ahead of its full release on 13th July. Nintendo's adorable Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker is now available to try on its two new platforms: Nintendo Switch and 3DS.
