Editing Hint Art

'''Hint Art''' are special objects that appear in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. They are photographs or graphics that hint the location of a [[Power Moon]]; however, the Power Moon that is hinted at does not appear in the same kingdom that the Hint Art is found in. The player is required to look at the Hint Art in order for the corresponding Power Moon to become available. The player can also use the capture feature on the [[Nintendo Switch]] to save the Hint Art in their gallery, though this is not required. Once Mario locates the exact spot of a hidden Power Moon as described in the Hint Art, he must [[Ground Pound]] it to make the Power Moon appear out of the ground. In the [[Lake Kingdom]] and [[Seaside Kingdom]], he can also reveal a Power Moon by attacking its spot as a [[Cheep Cheep]]. Only one piece of Hint Art can be found in a kingdom, aside from the [[Dark Side]], which has ten different pieces of Hint Art. Hint Art does not appear in the [[Cascade Kingdom]], [[Cloud Kingdom]], [[Lost Kingdom]], [[Ruined Kingdom]], or [[Darker Side]]. Finding and solving enough Hint Art puzzles will reward Mario with two Power Moons from [[Toadette]] in the [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Mario Odyssey)|Mushroom Kingdom]]: one for solving five puzzles, and another for solving fifteen.

In addition to the in-game Hint Art, as of March 14, 2018, following the version 1.2.0 update, Nintendo began posting new Hint Art on social media. If Mario [[Ground Pound]]s at the correct spot as described in these pictures, instead of a Power Moon, a sprite of [[Luigi]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' (recolored to match his modern design) pops out of the ground and grants Mario 200 [[coin]]s. If Mario reveals a hidden Luigi sprite he previously discovered, he receives 10 coins instead. These pieces of Hint Art are based on the unused Hint Art found in the game's files. To celebrate ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'' releasing on [[Nintendo Switch]] and [[Nintendo 3DS]], the Luigi sprite in all kingdoms was replaced by a [[Captain Toad]] sprite with the same effect until August 8, 2018.<ref>[https://twitter.com/mario_odysseyJP/status/1020062223912357889 Captain Toad tweet by official Japanese ''Super Mario Odyssey'' Twitter]</ref>
