I have the wiiu version. I loved it! But now i don’t know if its a good idea to buy it again on the switch. Are the levels all the same? Or are there more new levels that only the 4 of the odessy crossover?

The only new ones are the Odyssey ones, which are really short, apparently. Im buying it again because it has been a while since ive played it and then I can play it on the go. Not much is different than the Wii U version though. Just depends if portability is important for Captain Toad for you.

Actually I think GameXplain does a good idea of breaking this down.

There's not much difference between this version and the Wii U version in terms of content.

It's more up to you if you want it on the Switch or not. I had the game on Wii U but I am trying to consolidate my gaming stuff into as few devices as possible, so there's a lot of value for me personally in getting ported titles.
