  • The next adventure takes our hero to the star-filled void, through countless planetoids, battle stations, and other elements that somehow drifted out of orbit. It's Mario's debut on the Nintendo Wii, but does it bring that system selling quality?

    This is by far my favorite Mario game that I played. The environments are rich in detail, the music is epic and atmospheric, and while it may be linear, it still yields rich backgrounds and charming and unique worlds. Definitely one of my favorite games of all time.

      You must be really young, since there have been many Mario games before the Galaxy duology (Super Mario World, Super Mario 64, just to name a few).

    Rosalina just nailed this game for me. Just her presence exerts this supernatural feeling that made the whole adventure feel even more mysterious. I can't accurately describe it, but without Rosalina's presence this game would not be /nearly/ as good. How do I know this? Because even though I will concede Super Mario Galaxy 2 had some great levels, the atmosphere of that game was nowhere near as good as Galaxy 1. I honestly did not have as much fun because of that.

    Great review Johnny! But I'm surprised you didn't talk about the FINAL reward (Grand Finale Galaxy) for getting 120 Power Stars with both Mario and Luigi. And I believe you showed it around the first half of the video. It's not as cool as the Luigi play through, but I thought it would worth acknowledging it. Nonetheless, can't wait for your review of my favorite game all time, Super Mario Galaxy 2!

    Johnny: The Ice Flower lets the plumber skate across water, and that's about the only thing cool about it. ....I'm sorry, that was unintentional. The Fire Flower makes the jump to 3D, and I think it's the best of the bunch but it burns out after a few seconds lik- Goddammit! I did it again. Alright, lemme try another phrase. Just do this a little more carefully. Let me see, uh... Spring Mario. Um... Awkward. Huh, there we go. No need to jump around a- Fuck!

    @davidguthary8147 10 років тому

    Super Mario Galaxy is my absolute favorite video game. It's the first game I was ever determined to complete in its entirety. The levels were great, the controls were precise (spring suit aside), the soundtrack was phenomenal, the motion controls were actually used well, and the story was better than expected. I know that story isn't the most important part of a Mario game, but it was a nice bonus.
    Super Mario Galaxy 2, on the other hand, while a good game in its own right, just doesn't compare to the original in my opinion. With the exception of overused gimmicks (cloud suit, green stars, chimp challenges, etc.), nothing was added to improve it over the original. The hub world was all but forgotten, the levels were even more linear than in Galaxy 1, and the story sucked. Again, I know story is not the most important part of a Mario game, but given the story of the first game, I expected something better than Bowser eating Grand Stars.
    My biggest reason for not liking the sequel nearly as much as the original, however, is the fact that *IT WAS NOT ORIGINALLY MEANT TO BE ITS OWN GAME!* If the fact that it started production as Super Mario Galaxy 1.5 doesn't tip you off to this fact, then the untouched controls and reused mechanics will. You can even find the ice flower in the code despite it not appearing anywhere in the game.
    To those of you who will undoubtedly think I am evil incarnate for saying that the first game is superior, let me just say that I am only giving my opinion on the matter. If you like the sequel more than the original, don't let me stop you from enjoying it, but please don't say I am stupid just because my opinion is different from yours.

    Another thing that I am grateful to this game for: Introducing Kenny James, by far the best voice of Bowser yet. Oh God, his deep growling tone, that echo, how he applies it to roaring, laughing and even humorous reactions to his faltering situation, you can tell that he made this character sound powerful. And I love that it stuck for later titles like Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and Super Mario 3D World (I hope you have that up for vote eventually). It's a massive step up from synthetic roaring sound effects and the grunting Cookie Monster voice in every game before.

      happy 15th anniversary super mario galaxy!!! :3
      a great showing of mario on the wii and my favorite mario game(along with super mario world,3d world & odyssey) that i love so much with it's music(the orchestrated pieces definitely that add to the bright worlds in space you explore .),gameplay(though i wish the rolling ball was cut and wish the red star was brought back/made into the cape feather it took advantage of the wii/used gravity in a non forced way the star spin and cappy are my favorite features and i just found out about the homing ground pound.),
      cinematic presentation(it has such a movie like feel similar to sonic unleashed to me that i'm glad odyssey brought back and hope the next mario game has that.),post game(way better than pre galaxy and 2 especially with how much you collect as i loved playing as luigi again along with finding his interactions with rosalina cute in the ending picture and getting to enjoy the star festival at the end just wish peach was there outside the photo/we saw more of toadette considering her cameo in the intro.) and especially rosalina(along with luigi/daisy,princess peach and wario/warioware's cast my favorite mario character for her sweet motherly personality,her wonderful backstory which mario needs to do more of and being my favorite nintendo god along with palutena/viridi.:3)

    Mario Galaxy. This is my favorite Mario platformer (tied with the sequel).
    The level design is insanely creative, the hub world is fun to travel through, I like that Rosalina is a character with an actual backstory (favorite Mario character tied with Luigi btw), the soundtrack is AMAZING, the game still holds up graphically pretty well, the antigravity isn't jarring, the spin jump is great for both enemies and platforming, the motion controls aren't intrusive (for the most part), an no 100 coins or blue coins (though some purple coin mission can be annoying).
    The powerups are alright. I enjoyed them for what they were.

    What's with all the Galaxy 2 hate? I love both of these games to death, and I originally loved the first more than the second, but over the years the sequel has won me over and has become one of my favorite games of all time. It's the best looking Wii game I've ever played. The soundtrack is even better than the amazingness of Galaxy 1 due to its mix of fantastic remixes (like the best version of Koopa's Road), tracks from Galaxy 1 (like Gusty Garden), and amazing original tracks like Yoshi Star Galaxy and Bowser's Galaxy Generator. The levels are greater in number and more varied in design than any previous collectathon Mario and integrate the most creative (if admittedly situational) powerups in Mario history to create some of the best stages in any platforming game PERIOD. There's more bosses, more stage hazards, more set pieces, and it ultimately creates what is easily the biggest and most ambitious Mario title to date (3D World was still pretty good, though). There is the occasional recycling of elements from the first, like Shiverburn Galaxy, but when this does happen, it feels like a loving tribute rather than a lazy rehash. I can't help but feel that Galaxy 2 haters are allowing the "Wow Factor" of the first game, which won't even matter in 20 years, to cloud their judgment when comparing these two masterpieces side to side. That's like calling SMB1 better than the considerably better designed SMB3 just because SMB1 was "more impressive for its time." I was there when both of these games were released folks, and while the Wow Factor of the first did originally lead me to prefer it, when I got past that and actually analyzed what made both of these titles so great, I realized that the second game has the advantage. While you don't have to like it more than the first, it's a bit hateful to refer to Galaxy 2 as an overrated piece of trash just because the first game seemed "more impressive for it's time."

    Story time!
    In my younger days (about 5 or 6) I was hooked on my dad's NES. He was given one by a relative/friend (can't remember which) but he wasn't really into gaming so he let me and my brother use it. There wasn't a big selection of games; we had... I'm just going to grab the cartridges... OK, let's see... Super Mario Bros., Bubble Bobble, Duck Hunt, Ice Climber, Top Gun (which I wasn't interested in), a broken copy of Devil World (which I also never got around to play, though I don't remember if it was broken back then), Hogan's Alley and Slalom. This was in the early 2000s. Let that sink in. (My current age might help in realising: 17)
    Anyway, I grew up and moved to random PC games until Christmas -07 when we got a Wii with Super Mario Galaxy. So I jumped from the first Super Mario Bros. to this. Let's compare the two. A 2D sidescrolling platformer from the third generation of consoles to a 3D platformer from the 7th generation. No other Mario games between the NES classic and Galaxy. The only other mainstream platformer I played was Sonic Heroes for PC (and MY GOD the slowdown was DREADFUL thanks to my dad's toaster PC, yet I still managed to complete the game... like a year after my last session).
    tl;dr: Galaxy is close to my heart for truly introducing me to Nintendo. Though we traded it in (it was either 1 or 2) among with almost our entire Wii library for an Xbox 360 (the disc reader broke), I consider Galaxy and Twilight Princess the games that made me the gamer I am today.
    P.S. Buoy Base Galaxy all the way.

Not like in 3D World where the exploring in the hub worlds is kind of bland. It's hard to explain and I did a piss poor job doing it.
