Unpopular opinion: Super Mario Bros. Wonder’s multiplayer is a disappointment.

I got this game to play with my wife and her family. The characters are adorable, the levels are full of charm, the music is outstanding, and the platforming is really tight....

You can turn online off from the pause screen, no need to run anywhere. But yeah multiplayer works a bit better in local than what you described. Haven’t bothered with online multiplayer at all.

Well now I feel kind of dumb. The pause menu was the first place I went and neither my wife or I noticed the prompt to disable online features, so we ended up quitting the level to hunt down the little wifi tower thing in the game. Next time we play, I'll look more carefully.
Local is much better in terms cooperative play, but what others are calling the "crown system" makes it really frustrating if any one person in the group decides to explore while waiting for someone else to try something.

Sorry, I didn’t mean to indicate that it’s available in the level, but you can definitely turn it off from the pause menu in the overworld, you don’t need to run around to find the tower. I don’t remember if you can do it in the level.

and yeah, multiplayer is frustrating. I still have never seen as good of a system as the lego games in any local multiplayer game.
