How to use the amazing photo mode of Super Mario 3D World + Bowser Fury

If you read our comment, you know Super Mario 3D World + Bowser Fury is one of the best Nintendo Switch games, a dual feature that brings together an underrated jewel of the Wii U and an experimental open-world spinoff. But what you may have missed (unless you admired my images) is the power of the game’s photo mode. The photo suite is not the most powerful option in modern video games, but it does provide more than enough ways to distort Mario-verse as you see fit.

In both Super Mario 3D World and Bowser’s Fury, the photo mode can be activated by pressing the directional button. Photo mode freezes the action and allows the player to move, rotate, tilt and zoom the camera, along with the option to add filters, logos and stamps. Inside Super Mario 3D World, certain areas restrict the camera in photo mode, but Bowser’s Fury, with its larger open world, allows you to rotate the camera wherever you want, whenever you want.

What can you do in photo mode?

You can create pop art.
