This game was involved in two [[My Nintendo]] missions related to the [[Super Mario Bros. 35th Anniversary|''Super Mario Bros.'' 35th Anniversary]], both of which were necessary to complete to enter the My Nintendo ''Super Mario Bros.'' Sweepstakes: Wave 2; the first involved purchasing the game itself (physically or digitally), and the second involved finding five hidden stickers on the official website for the game. Four of these stickers were the main playable characters in [[Cat Mario|Cat Suit]]s, and the fifth was a [[Super Bell]].

====Gameplay====
Several enhancements are made to the overall gameplay compared to the original Wii U release. For example, all characters except Captain Toad move approximately 40% faster than in the original game, in both levels and the world map. Cutscenes that serve as the intermissions between gameplay are now able to be skipped. Various basic character movements and abilities have been enhanced: for example, characters bouncing off of an enemy while [[Long Jump]]ing now automatically perform another Long Jump, rather than a standard [[jump]], and characters jumping while facing a wall with no directional input now slide against the wall, enabling them to [[Wall Jump]]. Additionally, [[Side Somersault]]s are now able to be performed while walking. When carrying objects or other characters, players no longer are required to hold {{button|switch|y}}; pressing the button again is instead required to throw the object or character. Due to this change, [[Rosalina]] can no longer [[spin]] while holding an object or character. Throwing distance for objects and characters has also been increased. Performing handstands atop [[tree]]s has varying distances with directional inputs. When handstanding, characters turn clockwise if the player holds right, and counterclockwise if they hold left, which is reversed compared to the original version. When [[crouch]]ed on a slope, characters remain crouched for about one second before beginning to [[slide]] down it, rather than sliding the moment they touch the slope. When jumping while crouched and sliding down a slope, characters now perform a Long Jump instead of a regular jump. Rosalina has some tweaks to her gameplay: her jump is slightly less floaty and she lands slightly faster.

Multiplayer mode now supports both local wireless and [[Nintendo Switch#Nintendo Switch Online|Nintendo Switch Online]] connections. Up to two players can play on a single system in local wireless mode. In these modes, entering a [[bubble]] to rendezvous with other players can now only be performed by pressing {{button|switch|l}} and {{button|switch|r}} together instead of either one alone. [[Captain Toad's Adventures]] can now be played with up to four players, unlike in the original release where these levels were single-player only. For these levels, additional players play as the [[Toad Brigade]] members, with all players being able to select one to play as before a level begins. Similarly to normal levels, the game ranks each player's points in multiplayer in the Captain Toad levels as well, though the winning player does not get a [[crown]].

Improvements and alterations introduced in ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'' and [[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (Nintendo Switch / Nintendo 3DS)|its Nintendo Switch port]] are retained in this game. Captain Toad's headlamp can now defeat [[Boo]]s and [[Peepa]]s, similarly to the [[Light Box]]. The pause menu now features the ability to retry a course, rather than having to return to the world map to do so. In TV mode, gyroscopic pointer controls replace the touchscreen controls of the Wii U version, which are activated by pressing {{button|switch|r}} (in a similar vein to the [[Star Pointer]] in the ''[[Super Mario 3D All-Stars]]'' version of ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''), and an [[emblem]] of the character controlling the pointer is present. Due to the lack of a microphone on the Nintendo Switch console, [[Propeller Platform]]s have been replaced in every level where they appeared; they are replaced by [[Lift]]s in [[Captain Toad Goes Forth]] and [[Puffprod Peaks]], invisible [[Cloud Lift|clouds]] in [[Blast Block Skyway]], and [[Touchstone]]s in [[Captain Toad's Fiery Finale]].

''[[Luigi Bros.]]'' can now only be unlocked by defeating [[Meowser]] in [[The Great Tower of Bowser Land]]; having ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'' save data on the system through ownership of ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]'' no longer unlocks it from the beginning. There is also now an option to quickly exit to the title screen from ''Luigi Bros.'', as opposed to being forced to exit to the Home Menu.

Steve Watts of {{wp|GameSpot}} rated the game 9/10, calling both campaigns "a candy confection of fine-tuned platforming that marries some of the best elements of 2D and 3D Mario in two very different ways". They stated that online multiplayer was "a nice but not strictly necessary addition to the core game" that had "only the occasional moment of stutter". They called ''Bowser's Fury'' "the [''Super Mario''] series at its most experimental", but questioned "if this is the kind of experiment that would work outside the narrow parameters of Bowser's Fury and live on in other Mario games". Despite "occasional frustrations", they concluded that it was "a short-but-sweet and extremely zany curiosity".
