Super Mario Galaxy (Wii)

Mario has been ever since the 80's been Nintendo's "go to guy" when they needed sales. The mascot, the staple of one giant among giants in the gaming industry.
I'd have to say that the reviews I'd read and heard from other sources tend to about spot on. Case in point, this is the 1st Mario game if not game in general to have a realistic gravity effect. This is why Mario Galaxy gets a 4/5 from me.

Storyline - 3/5
The story is pretty much what you have seen before in the Mario franchise.The story is the only bad thing about this game because we've seen the same thing many times.The story mimics that of what we're already been feed like Mario 64. Mario just heads to Peach's castle after a sent invitation to a night festival and Bowser invades by pulling the princess's castle and taken into other space. Actually now that I think about it, it seems like the exact same story as Paper Mario for the 64. A homage maybe back to the "Sorry, but your princess in is another castle"

Gameplay + Control - 4/5
This is a very close 5/5 believe me. The graphics are breathtaking, the game is simply glorious. The 360 degrees of freedom that your allowed to navigate with the elegancy of the free roaming camera angels. The different suits Mario changes in and out of work seamlessly with easy transaction.

Controlling Mario can be a little hard at initially, if you are not experienced with his games, but it won't take long to get a hang on the controls. Everything is sweet and straightforward, whatever screen your on if it be the main screen or the HUD, the controls are simple.The + and - buttons serve the same purpose, basically they are the start button. The Direction Pad lets you look around in directions (Along with a first person view), but there is always the C button to make the camera look in the direction Mario is facing.

Replay Value - 5/5
Their’s about 30 to 40 hours of game time, included in that are some 2-D scrolling aspects along with the option to collect all the 100+ stars just like in Mario 64, even though it only takes about 60 to finish the game. There is a two player mode, along with a “Trial Galaxies".

Music - 4/5
The in game music is soothing at times and hard on the ears. The music helps set the mood for the level, or even for a power-up you have just obtained. It can range from serene, to chaotic, and to dark. Not to mention the classic Mario Bros songs you will hear, which will no doubt give you the feeling of nostalgia.

The replay value is quite high until you get to the point of beating the game over and over again. If only Nintendo had a way to add extra content to their games threw downloads, the possibilities for this would be almost endless, but once again Nintendo delivers a great game with Mario in it (Well, till Smash Bros. Brawl is out)

I am not a gamer. In fact, I got bored playing games since I either always got stuck in one place and didn't know where to go or always got beaten by the enemies. I bought this for my brother and enjoying watching him playing. I started to play and got addicted. I could actually get quite a lot of power stars. The level got more and more difficult. I still don't know how to swim properly and often had to repeat one place over and over. Overall, I enjoy it so much, it is not an easy game but it is not super difficult almost impossible to finish kind of game. We actually got all 120 power stars and I can't wait for Nintendo to come up with the sequel or similar Mario games!

I was able to buy it for $13 less than at a retail store. It was exactly what my grandson wanted and thus far he has been playing it w/out a problem. The shipment was fast.

It took about 2 weeks for the game to come. Would have been nice if it came sooner. Other than that it everything was fine.

From the instance I started playing Mario Galaxy, I knew it was a classic! It served as an excellent introduction to the WII and the capabilities of the WII remote. Chalenging and fun for the family too! Mario spends a good part of the game upside down and dealing with gravity.

It will never replace the 2d 8bit games for an old school gamer like me, but it is definately a well thought-out progression of the Mario we all know. It's basically Mario World on steroids. The only down for me is I don't personaly enjoy having to beat a level multiple times which is required to get the 100%.

Graphics are excellent in my opinion. Planets are interesting and very colorful, true eye candy. The bosses put up a great fight and lots of the other enemies just get in the way. I recommend this game, but I would rather play Super Mario Bros. or Super Mario Bros. 3.

Very Unique game. Still has the classic Mario swing with several twists to the game. Excellent Game.

Game must be great because the kids haven't played anything else since it arrived. Looks fantastic on my big screen. All four of my kids can play at once. Buy this game

This is one of the best games I've found for the wii. Lots of games are boring after awhile but this one keeps you going.

My son loves this game. When ever he plays the Wii he always ends up playing this game, even though he has defeated it twice. It's your classic Mario game. Many levels, many challenges, but still fun. We decided to buy it because we had rented it and my son liked it so much we bought it.

my friends told that this is a great game....and it is indeed....excellent gameplay....wonderful environments....lots of fun playing it..
i would recommend this game to be a must have

My husband and I decided to buy a Wii for Christmas this year for our family. This is the game he wanted. We just tested it out to make sure it works and we're way excited for Christmas Day to get here so we can play it all day!

I'm not a huge gamer, and as far as some games go my hand eye coordination sucks, but this games is suprisingly easy to pick up and play with still some level of difficulty to make for a fun game to play.

I am on my 4th time through, and i seem to find new things every time. It's not as simple as other games, yet not so hard that you'd become discouraged. Take my word, this is the best Mario they've ever made!!!

Great mario game. Awsome graphixs. GReat color and great story line. Should get it its deffinatly a diffrent stragy game and mario series.

I bout it because I heard good things about it, but it made me dizzy and nauseous. Someone who really liked it was my little 8 year old brother. The only thing I use the WII for is the WII Fit if I want to play a game I use my PS3.

Great seller. Ship fast.
However, the game I bought is so BORING. It is better for children under 10.
It is not the seller's fault.
Again, I hate the game Super Mario Galaxy.

Great game...I love it as a 41 year old and so do my 4 and 5 year olds. Very addicting...when you finish one section, a new one opens so it's hard to quit. There is lots of stuff to find so it'll take a while to get through the whole thing. We've been playing it for 2 months and are only halfway done.

Came super early, great condition, fun game, great seller unlike some I'had in the past who've sent me items with missing pieces, everybody buy from this seller they're great, thanx again

it took a lil time but it showed up. The game was in perfect condition, the game booklet was in perfect condition. I would buy from this seller again!!
Thank you

Perfect condition, and keeps going and going. It looks and works like brand new. Shipped quicker than expected. I will definitely buy more games from this user. I tried to write a review long before now, but I was having trouble confirming my e-mail to get signed on, but that is now resolved.

It is a fun game. It can be a little tedious at times though. But it is very well made! The Graphics are amazing!!! You defy gravity as Mario romes about his universe.

I absolutly couldn't be more please with the way this trasaction transpired. My nephewed stayed a week with me this summer, and all he could talk about was "SUPER MARIO GALAXY!" He was so good during his stay, that I told him if we could find the game at a good price on eBay, I would try to win it for him.

We found the seller we wanted to buy from and placed our bid. However, it wasn't long before we were in a bidding war. We talked about how much I was willing to spend, and left it at that. Before we went to bed that night, the bidding went over our budget. My nephew never complained, although I knew he was extremely disappointed. The auction was set to end at 3am. I decided that he deserved his little prize, so I set my alarm and won the game! He was ecstatic to say the least! I paid for the game and had it mail to his home. My sister said that when the mail person delivered his game it was like the 4th of July at their home. It was a wonderful experience, and one I'm sure he won't forget.

I strongly recommend this seller, and I applaud eBay for setting up such a wonderful service.

This game is awesome. The graphics are excellent, and there are tons of levels to go through which allows the game to not get boring quickly.
Best Mario game so far in my opinion.
