Posted November 21, 2007 How is that relevant? Lol. He said America has better taste then Europe. I was saying that the UK loved Mario, it didn't need to go to number 1 to prove it was popular, thats all. Many are saying it didn't sell well here.... Perhaps Nintendo took too long to release it or it was marketed very well here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 21, 2007 Okay secret stars are hard to get. Struggling to find them in Hot/Freezing and Desert Galaxy. I shall complete this without a guide! Though it will take me a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 21, 2007 Really? I didn't have problem with any of them. Yea i've tried a few times I'll go back again. I bet they'll end up really easy. EDIT - Just got the Desert one. I feel like an idiot. And the other one. God how did I struggle at that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2007 Ahhh, I've just spent the last half hour doing the daredevil on bouldergeist! I feel foolish and satisfied, foolish for thinking the game was too easy when I started, and satisfied for finding out it's not Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 21, 2007 Completed this yesterday and got 120 stars today, absolutely loved it from start to finish. Now I’m playing through it again… …with Luigi. So funny hearing him say “Super Luigi Galaxy!” I love how he moves differently to Mario too, bit faster, higher jumping but really slippery, definitely makes the game more difficult which is great. …I could play this game forever.

I like it cause that was what the controls were like originally for some of the NES Mario games like the Lost Levels. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2007 Ahhh, I've just spent the last half hour doing the daredevil on bouldergeist! That also gave me a few problems initially. I am now on 119 but the one I am missing is the Purple Comet one on Toy Town and I have wasted more than enough lives there already. Its do-able but frustrating as hell. So close now and I really can't wait to go through this again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 21, 2007 Does it matter what mission you attempt to find it on? It tells you what mission it's on when you enter the Galaxy and the star selection comes up. One with the white question mark shows you the mission it's hidden in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2007 Corrected. This is so true! Here in Finland there's no advertisement for the game, and Nintendo delivered only 50% of the promised amount to retailers (I know a guy who owns a game store). Hard to find the game from stores! And games like Harry Potter, The Simpsons and other EA games can be found everywhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2007 Goddamn, it's 9oclock! I sat down at like 6 to play for an hour and I can't believe it. I cannot believe how much I'm loving this, seems like it's got a good sort of time span on it too(for 100%ing), very good stuff. Hopefully the last few stars will be right challenging buggers like in sm64, secret stars and red coins etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2007 It tells you what mission it's on when you enter the Galaxy and the star selection comes up. One with the white question mark shows you the mission it's hidden in. That's what I thought, it showed it me on the Bee Galaxy, had a quick fap about but didn't find it. Although I've found 2 by accident. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
