Posted July 17, 2007 Mario Galaxy look downright amazing. The more I see of it, the more its clear this game is going to be the Revolution. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 17, 2007 Just saw two stages in full motion and I must say this is very beautiful. The only caution I reserve is whether the camera will be able to cope, though. From what Nintendo are saying, the layout also helps the camera. Also, it looks like the D-pad (as well as the c-button to centre the camera behind mario) takes care of adjustments. 4 buttons worked well in SM64, so a D-pad should work better than that. (An analogue stick may be better...but most seem to move the camera rather slowly, buttons/d-pad seem great for quick adjustments). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 18, 2007 It is written "Rosetta" on the picture. Can't read the other one. First I thought it was Peach, but you're right. Checked it with a sheet of katakana characters (my own Rosetta Stone ). She's called Rosetta. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 18, 2007 This game better turn out to be The Best Game Ever. Nothing less will satisfy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 18, 2007 Rosetta is damn hot, looks like Peach will stay with Bowser in this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 18, 2007 Or maybe the star bunnies turn Peach into Rosetta, like when Midna fuses with Zelda in TP! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 18, 2007 That kinda happens with every Nintendo game. Nope, it doesn't. Super Mario Sunshine did not deliver. It does happen with most though, just not every. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 18, 2007 Ah, gotcha. But really, I do expect a monster of a game with Super Mario Galaxy. This is my number one expected Wii game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 18, 2007 Nice design. I wonder what Peach would look like in this game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 18, 2007 My worries (after playing Sunshine, my most hated GameCube game) about this game have gone. It already feels like SM64, but better. And I haven't even touched it yet. The big "planets" just seem so much like SM64 levels (with the added bonus of all the other things floating around), Mario seems to move like in SM64 (rather than getting hindered by FLUDD), and there seems to be a sense of freedom. And some bits seem to take from the only bits of Sunshine I liked - the Non-FLUDD sections. I'm pretty sure I'm going to love this one. edit: Translation (from neogaf) Mario`s Great Space Adventure For the first time in eight months, new screens! Introducing Super Mario Galaxy! Big, small, travel around all kinds of planets to rescue Princess Peach!! Peach is in trouble…again! To save the dragged-off Peach, Mario jumps into space! The platforming action spreads to new locales as Mario travels between planets large and small and faces off against enemies new and old. What kind of adventure lies in wait this time? Freely Run About on the Surface Every planet has challenges and things to explore. Planets come in all shapes and sizes, and have various gadgets. Sometimes there are platforms to travel across, too. Inside, too!? Mario runs up and down the walls of this stage as gravity changes direction. Is this the inside of a star? Space is full of gadgets and bad guys! To save Princess Peach, Mario jumps into space and develops new powers, fights tough baddies and uses tonnes of gadgets to morph and take on challenges. Let`s introduce the mysterious worlds and characters that he will meet during this adventure! Lady of Mystery: Rosetta Out of the light comes the lady of mystery, Rosetta - a woman of translucent beauty. If Mario falls for her, will Peach escape by herself and lay into him!? She doesn`t seem like a baddie: does Mario receive new powers from her? Bowser and Petey Pirahna! Some familiar faces power up. Bowser`s fire breath, is always, terrifying, but it`s a shock to see that Petey has developed almost dinosaur levels of power. Travel through Water Mario can travel rapidly through water with a Koopa shell. Are those Torpedo Teds chasing him from behind!? Wrecked Spaceship Mario travels the surface of a wrecked spaceship. Ambushed by enemies from four directions, he seems to be in a bit of a pinch. Better escape quickly and rush off to find Peach! Castle of the Queen of the Bees The kindly queen doesn`t seem like an enemy, but this `FLY` meter is a bit worrying… The Gigantic Insect Tucks In!? This insect moves from apple to apple, digging right in! There is really nothing but mysterious places here. (Series history) (E3 data) Boiiing! Jump from Star to Star! Using this star-like device, Mario can progress by jumping from planet to planet. Each stage is made up of several tiny planets dotted all over the place. While travelling between them, the pointer can be used to attract elastic collectibles to Mario, like playing Pachinko. Space is loaded with all kinds of gadgets! Move with the Pointer! The stars in the centres of these spherical bodies are called “Star Catchers”. Mario can fluffily float through space by connecting between them. Choose which point to travel to next using the pointer. Collect Stars for a 1-Up! When the damage meter in the top-right of the screen is emptied, Mario will sadly perish. Still, if you collect the “Star Pieces” that are scattered all over the place, Mario will get a 1-Up! Collect loads to avoid Game Over. On top of that, it seems Star Pieces can be used to power a special attack. But what kind of attack could that possibly be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 18, 2007 And some bits seem to take from the only bits of Sunshine I liked - the Non-FLUDD sections. This game seems to be taking the best bits of 64 and Sunshine - the bowser stages and non-FLUDD sectons - and making them the biggest focus of the game. T'will be awesome.

Posted July 18, 2007 Your most hated game on the gamecube. I just never got on with it. Sure, the graphics were ace, but it just lacked any kind of fun (for me). Playing SM64 on the VC afterwards just felt so responsive. edit: More level footage: http://gamevideos.com/video/id/13281 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 19, 2007 i think peach will also be in the game but she can never be that princess becouse princess peach is the princess of mushroom kingdom and not the galaxy princess i like the design of that princess Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
