  Best Mario Game Since Mario 64
Review created: 11/15/07(updated 11/21/07)
36 of 39 people found this review helpful.

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 love the game's music. Also there’s a great deal of diversity throughout Super Mario Galaxy’s level design that it’s hard not to get excited when a new area opens, knowing that there’s a whole new set of puzzles and obstacles designed around the theme of the level.
One good/bad thing, I found it not very addicting.

  Super Mario Galaxy is todays Mario 64
Review created: 08/20/08

If you liked Mario 64 you will love Super Mario Galaxy. Super Mario Galaxy is like the sequel to Mario 64. The Graphics are better, and there are many, many more adventures to explore with Super Mario Galaxy. The Wiimote and NunChuk are very easy to use in this game. You use the NunChuk to move Mario and everything else, like to jump, you use the Wiimote. Nintendo has gotten very far with their games and has improved a lot. From 2D to 3D, from t.v. to h.d. Nintendo has done it again by creating another great game.

  Galaxy by far another great Nintendo Hit
Review created: 08/10/08
by:

Super Mario Galaxy has taken the series of Mario games Nintendo has produced to a whole new level, or should I say, galaxy.

With stunning graphics and amazing user control, S.M.G (as I will refer to it from here on out) is by far one of the best games I have played in a while. At first, I was confused by the user manipulation, as I was getting dizzy watching Mario go in 3D movement on astroids and other planets. If you Mario fans can recall Super Mario 64, this was definitely a remake, but an excellent one none the less, of that game.

SMG has given the player the ability to enjoy a game that does have difficult passages, some of which can be EXTREMELY frustrating and hard to bypass. The game is designed to challenge the player unlike other Mario games could not; for example, using the Wii remote to point and pull objects towards Mario, or to do random things to the Mario or Luigi character.

The best part, I believe, is the length of the game. You are left with numerous amounts of challenges, levels, and the best part being that in order to actually beat the game fully, you must complete it with not only the Mario character, but also Luigi.

You must play the game for yourself to truly understand how much has been packed into this one CD. By far, I have enjoyed this game more than I can convey, and I am still working through it to complete every task the programmers set up for me. By all means, I would recommend this game to any Nintendo Wii owner.

  If you love the Mario franchise, this one is awesome.
Review created: 08/09/08

This is an unbelievable game if you are a fan of the Mario franchise.
There are so many levels, each with their own unique styles that it will give you hundreds of hours of gameplay.
Sometimes the camera is a bit annoying and can get in the way, but that is about the only negative of this game.
Mario can skate, swim, fly, "spring" and interact with most objects in each level.
The storyline is ok, but that's not why you're playing it anyway.
The Wii controls take a bit getting used to, but after a while it almost feels natural. You need the nunchuck for this game.

  Great Game

The story is not that important in the game so i am not going to talk about it. But it is not bad but predictable to Mario lovers. The graphics are what i care about. You get a breathtaking 360 degrees of freedom that your allowed to navigate through the gorgeous landscape but you have some bit falls here and there.
Trying to move Mario is another thing you get disoriented in the beginning but you will get the hang of it soon. You have a question of what you can do, then there is a pop up bubble that tells you. Sweet right. Also I love the game's music.

  Medal of Honor
Review created: 08/09/08

Medal of Honor has got to be one of the coolest games for wii. There is a point in the game where you pick up a bazooka, cock the wii-mote over your shoulder and aim and fire that way. darn cool game.

  Super Mario Galaxy - Great for all types of gamers
Review created: 08/06/08

iamsh4wn ( 8 )

This is a great game. It's taken the old Mario Bros. idea and taken it to Magictown. It's great for many ages, I would think, although some of the parts can be pretty difficult, which is great for me. The music is fun, the gameplay constantly changes, which keeps it interesting. I highly recommend.

  Shigeru Brings Mario to 22nd century
Review created: 08/03/08
by:

This game, like Mario64 and Super Mario World and Super Mario 3, represents what is good about gaming. Shigeru Miyamoto has reinvented Mario again for the Wii. Although Mario's moves are mostly still familiar from Mario64, the gameplay is totally new. It reminds me of Banjo-Kazooie in some aspects, and the biggest difference of course is the "planet" aspect of the game..."down" does not always mean towards the bottom of the TV, and sometimes a planet is so small that Mario looks like he's running on a beach ball!

It's really fun and very addicting. You won't waste your money here.

It's Mario, enough said. It's classic Mario thrown into the wii world. We love the Mario characters. Choosing our own mii's to label the files is very cool. So many files everyone can have their own. Very good idea. Game itself is easy enough for smaller children yet it holds appeal for adults as well. I love playing and watching my grandkids play.

  A FREE WII
Review created: 07/31/08

Just take 2 minutes and read this. This is very EASY to do! It literally takes 10 minutes to setup. Simply follow the steps below. I promise you, this is 100% real. I wouldn't jeopardize my EBay account status if this was a scam. My feedback is real and I will answer you on any question! Here is what you do. Click on the link below, register, pick an account type (referral is the easiest) and complete just 1 offer (Very important that you complete the 1 offer otherwise your account will sit in limbo until you do).This is not like other sites where you need to complete one offer on 2 or 3 different pages!!! And a lot of these offers are FREE trials with nothing else to buy...No commitments!!!

There are plenty of cool offers to choose from such as Blockbuster online, Stamp.com, Netflix, Gamefly which are services you would regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use them to get a free PS3 System or cash (I did the Stamps.com for a 30 day free trial and it never cost me a penny and I received credit for it the same day). Look at the offers and choose the one that works for you. After signing up and completing your one offer, simply refer 8-13 people (depending on the FREE prize you choose) to do the same under your link (just post the same thing as I have on eBay, and you'll get your referrals before the auction even ends.)

Then they will ship your flat screen computer monitor or your selected item for free; No Joke, 100% REAL!!! The reason these companies make money, is because most people don't bother getting all the referrals. All you have to do is post it on EBAY! They use us as advertisement by word of mouth which saves them tons of money which goes toward yours and my free gift. These are legit companies such as Blockbuster, Netflix, Gamefly etc... You can copy my listing if you want. You must use your own authentic link though. You will get your own personal link after your orders placed.

Step 1: Click this link:
http://www.YourNintendoWii4Free.com/index.php?ref=5242649


Step 2: Sign up and chose an account type (Referral is the easiest and best).

Step 3: Complete just 1 offer (like Blockbuster or Stamps.com or PosterPass.com) and refer up to 10 people to do the same (use eBay! Do what I did, copy my
ad).

Step 4: Receive your gift(s) for FREE!!!!!!!!!! (Even The Shipping
Is Free!!!)

For proof that this is for real, click on the link below. It's the
company that is behind everything.

  Super Mario Galaxy.." The Best Game In All The Galaxies
Review created: 07/29/08
by:

This games seems to be endless you think you've finished but then you shoot off too another planet/galaxy. Many motions are made by using the nunchuk and Wiimote. So you not just sitting at the TV mindless you are making some physical movements. The story I'd rate 9 gameplay 9.5 presentation 10 and this gives Super Mario Galaxy a total score of 9.8 out of ten
