Close, but you missed some punctuation. U R M.I.A., Y?

It's a clue about the plot of the game. Luigi's gone missing and Mario searches the universe to find him.

I hope Nnitendo has a good story narrative for this game.

Theres no way you were born in 89. You've gotta be like 13 right? Not making fun, but your young right? Or did you just recently get into Nintendo say during the GameCube era?

While that comment sounds utterly ridiculous, I'm going to play devil's advocate. The plots of the Mario RPG titles (namely the Mario and Luigi games) are pretty strong for what they're going for. Strong for a story aimed at a general audience and especially for a Mario game. It's not Pixar, but it's good for what it is. Additionally, I found Rosalina's storybook-esque side-story to be very entertaining though maybe it's because I'm a sucker for Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's classic The Little Prince which this was a blatant homage to. Unlike The Little Prince, however, there's really no lesson learned as it's just a story about how Rosalina met the Lumas, but I still liked it. Apparently, there's none of that in SMG2, but I guess there really doesn't need to be.

LOL, are you guys looking at the "shiny spark" on the title letters? That's ridiculous.

if you look at the star on the A it's also touching the L.

So it could be UR MI ALY
or "You Are My Ally"

a reference to Yoshi and Sonic

>> Super Mario Galaxy 2
Badass Nintendo Media Summit 2010 trailer * 480p / 60fps

A game full of all this direct, free-pointing manipulation of the environment that Yoshi does was something I hoped would be in the first Galaxy game (and not just shoved into P2's role). The Crystal Bearers beat Nintendo to it.

Looks like the observatories may be gone. Classic level progression suggested by this screenshot:

I like that giant work/dragon that Mario fights. He seems like a tough boss. One that will have you slamming your wiimote down. But he might be easy, so we will have to wait and see to find out if it is true or not.

That is probably the first boss. Maybe second after the long legged thing, no way its hard. I'll gladly eat my words if not true though. Now more importantly, no over world?! I can't believe they would take away the hub. It is called hub right? But in all honesty I like classic level advancing and prefer it.

ooops, can I get in trouble for how ever I posted that picture? should I take it down?

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #260 on:** February 28, 2010, 12:15:11 AM »

You get in trouble if you hot link to the site that is hosting the image. Just follow BlackNMilds directions and edit your post with the picture that was uploaded.

Nintendo life doesn't put up bad pics for hotlinking, but hot linking is frowned upon.
The image you were trying to link is not showing and some sites will replace it with offensive pics that could end up getting you in trouble depending on the site you posted it on.

Just a helpful tip that I should add to the "How To" thread for future reference.

Bosses in Mario games tend to be pretty easy, sometimes the only difficult part may be figuring out what to do. The only exceptions are the Daredevil Comet stars in the first Galaxy, where you have to beat them without getting hit.

I don't mind if the observatories aren't in this game, they seemed kind of unnecessary anyway.

ThomasO · « **Reply #263 on:** February 28, 2010, 01:50:15 AM »

Not to mention they were the blandest of Mario hubs.

Dasmos · « **Reply #264 on:** February 28, 2010, 04:53:50 AM »

I dunno when you got the red star in Galaxy I spent a whole lot of time just flying around the observatory.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #265 on:** February 28, 2010, 05:35:06 AM »

I actually liked the Mario Galaxy hub. It was full of life and magical and as Dasmos mentioned flying around the area was fun.
Now I still need to get all the stars for the second part of the game.Super Luigi Galaxy

Stratos · « **Reply #266 on:** February 28, 2010, 06:03:15 AM »

I liked the hub too. I loved the music for it.

Mop it up · « **Reply #267 on:** February 28, 2010, 02:21:20 PM »

They could have made a stage where flying around was fun...

Caterkiller · « **Reply #268 on:** February 28, 2010, 02:44:43 PM »

I hope the mode of flight in this game is Yoshi with wings. Come on come on!

Kairon · « **Reply #269 on:** February 28, 2010, 02:48:27 PM »

God, I'd play and replay the special flying stages in Mario 64 just BECAUSE I wanted to fly around just for fun.

So he would be like Pegasus? I just bought this game at Gamestop using that 50% trade in bonus.

I suppose so, not sure about that game. But just think Mario World where it started(and basically ended) and more recently Brawl.

Thanks Pro for that awesome high quality video. It's amazing.

Between this and Zelda Wii, It'll be hard for anything else to be considered for GOTY.

I agree with the statement that Best of 2010 will be a tough choice in regards to how many good games are coming out this year.

I'm still not convinced Zelda will be out this year considering there is almost zero info known about the game (not even its name).
