It's literally all he talks about. Quite worried about him going back to nursery now because he just wants to discuss Mario stuff all the time.
When I said that was the last gem, he turned and said he was really sad now it was all over. Can't believe how much it has grabbed him. I hope in 35 years' time he feels as nostalgic for this as I do for games in the 80s.
(His sorrow didn't last long, he's now playing Odyssey again.)
What rank did you finish with?
We finished with a C, but went back to a save file before the final boss to collect the rest of the stuff, and so my son can just wander round the mansion fighting ghosts when he wants to. I had kind of expected there to be a post-game bit for completionists.

100%. He's only four and since lockdown started has become WAY better at controlling stuff. Capturing ghosts is actually a relatively tricky button sequence - A to flash torch, hold ZR to suck while pushing away from the ghost's direction of movement with the stick, then A repeatedly to bash them - but he can do it really well now. It's that Nintendo magic.
