Nintendo Removed Player Collision in Super Mario Bros. Wonder for Less Chaotic Local Multiplayer

Nintendo shared that Super Mario Bros. Wonder initially had collision in local multiplayer but it was removed.

Collision allowed things like jumping on other players' heads in previous NSMB games.

Collision could also make local multiplayer chaotic which Nintendo noticed.

Director Shiro Mouri said removing collision reduced stress, like when jumping to narrow platforms.

Some interactive elements remain like saving defeated players and riding Yoshi.
