Mario’s most recent adventure in the game Super Mario Odyssey has a ton of memorable moments, but none are greater than when our hero starred in “A Traditional Festival.”

After he restores power to New Donk City, he recruited musicians to perform in the festival. While Pauline sang “Jump Up, Super Star,” he climbed up to the top of the tower in a platforming section that referenced Donkey Kong, the very first game he appeared in as Jumpman.

This part of the game was incredibly iconic, not only because of the catchy song and clever references but because it combined 3D and 2D platforming in a brilliant way.
