I'm 100% sure that they never intended this for my age group ... but that trailer looks like it'll be so much fun.

Thank you for sharing :)

IDK your age group, but there's tons of nostalgic references and easter eggs. The game appears to be based on the Super Mario Odyssey engine, and the way Nintendo generally approaches the "all ages" problem is to make the plot easy, with tons of optional challenges and a set of hard levels in the "post-game" content. But I'm not very far in yet, so I can't promise anything on that front.
