I'd quite like to see more of the Mario cast in this one, even in cameo form. Obviously we get Yoshi, which is cool, and Peach is there...but it would be nice if they tried to integrate the other heroes a bit more.

 

Maybe it's just me. *shrugs*

Not at all, not at all. I for one would especially like to see the Wario Bros. get a special galaxy of their own. Here, Mario faces off against typical Wario and Waluigi -esque enemies and clever puzzles. PIE, CUPCAKES AND MONEY!

Probably not going to happen, but what IF it did:grin:

It's actually criminal that there hasn't been a Super Wario Bros. game or something by now.

 

They're both more interesting and fun than Mario. Wario is a living comedy legend. A game solely with both of them could be quite hilarious.

Everyone in the world knows who Mario is, only the fanboys know who Wario is.

The start of the game is "Princess Peach's letter pops up, inviting Mario to the castle. He pops out of the pipe with "its-a me, Mario!" and begins the sidescrolling 1-1 level. Than a luma shows up, tells him that Peach is in trouble, and *dramatic chord* the camera shifts to 3-D"

So Bowser is the baddie again, hardly a surprise but confirmation at least.

 

The hub world actually looks quite fun, if a little small

 

Those 2D levels look interesting. Reminds me of the 'retro' levels from Sunshine, which I personally thought were brilliant.

Giant World is back :D

 

It's known as Supermassive Galaxy (couldn't help humming Muse's "Supermassive Black Hole" briefly before realising the Nintendo drones were hanging around behind me like lingering smells), it was one of the demo levels at the Nintendo Media Summit. It was pretty damn awesome indeed.

I wish the text could be translated. It would be interesting to read what the "STORY" box says. Especially since it looks like the game will start with the letter from Peach (pic 1) and then follow with 2D Mario with starbits coming out of the ? blocks.

 

Actually that 2D Mario world looks fantastic from what we can see. The detail and style is amazing, I wish NSMB Wii looked like that.

 

Articles about Galaxy 2 have talked about the journos being sworn to secrecy on big aspects of the storyline, there must still be a lot to reveal...

Them shots look amazing! I can't wait for this! I downloaded Super Mario 64 a few days ago just to get that good Mario feeling back and I've got back to Rainbow Ride, oh the memories! If there are any levels as original as that this game will be amazing.

This game just looks better every day!

June 11th is too far away!

Wow. Am I the only one who thinks this is truly fantastic? Seriously, it shows the transition from 2D to 3D - just like what actually happened to Mario games. I dunno, maybe I'm just picturing it with orchestral music being all epic and such.

 

Hopefully it's good. The beginning of Galaxy 1 was odd. "Walk down a short narrow road until the CGI cut-scenes play"

System seller if the gaming world weren't full of casuals...seriously this looks just as amazing as the first! Cannot wait for it...the Wii will always be remembered for the Zelda's and Mario Galaxy's in my opinion! :D

Seems Player 2 can control a Luma

Yep, in the scans he acts like a weapon ie Yoshi Island egg move.

 

 

 

Orchestrate Super Mario World Ghost house and Mario 64 Bowser Stage theme . :D

 

Translation of Peachs letter from the scans.

 

Peach's Invite reads:

 

Dear Mario,

 

Do you fancy watching the shooting stars, whilst eating cake?

 

I'll be waiting at the castle.

 

Peach.

 

The story stuff reads:

 

'This is one more stardust fairytale. Only once in a hundred years does stardust fall on the mushroom kingdom. As such, Peach invites Mario to the castle to watch. On his way over, Mario spots a mysterious light. He cautiously approaches it, and finds... a small, lost baby star. The star - 'Baby Chico' - follows Mario to the castle, but what is waiting for them there is...'
