Super Mario Odyssey’s motion controls may be polarizing — co-reviewer Phil Kollar certainly isn’t a fan. I don’t mind them quite as much, but in case you’re in the same position as Phil and would rather play without, good news. The motion controls can be ignored, and even turned on or off when it comes to the gyroscopic camera, although playing the game sans motion comes with some finagling.

Pause the game to open up the main menu. There’s a submenu for options, and within that you’ll find a dedicated controls section.
