I'm popping in to let everyone know that I will no longer be checking this thread until after I have gotten a healthy way into SMG2.  If anyone forces me to come to this thread for any reason someone will be banned.  If someone reports a post that doesn't warrant a warning the person who reported the post will be banned.  Just wanted to give you all a heads up.  :)
Why must all things be so bright? Why can things not appear only in hues of brown! I am so serious about this! Dull colors are the future! The next generation! I will never accept a world with such bright colors! It is far too childish! I will rage against your cheery palette with my last breath!

In response to the above i petition everybody to sporadically throw in a nugget of SMG2 talk into every reply to Vudu in every thread possible.

Well come Sunday nobody should even be posting in this thread since everyone should be playing the game.  Well except for people in Europe and Australia but they should be spending the next several weeks listening to the amazing soundtrack anyway.

When someone has to report something, make sure the offending post is complete with uncensored spoilers.

And people, like me, that are scheduled to work on a Sunday... and Monday which is usually my day off, is a holiday... FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!

Are stores not open in Toronto on Victoria Day? Last I heard it was just a government holiday, and considering it has to release Sunday they've probably got the game already.

I think every store, bank, and government office is closed, but I'm going to give them (EB Games, pre-ordered) a call tomorrow to see if I can pass by earlier to get my copy, or I will just use my lunch break on Sunday to nab my copy of the game. To any ordinary person these obstacles would be easy to overcome... to put it simply, I'm weird.

For some reason my preorder is still dated for 6/6/2010 :(.  Why me?  I did chose the free shipping option but that usually is only 2-3 days anyhow, for some reason this one is going take a few weeks?  Blah, hopefully that's a mistake on their part and I'll get it sometime next week too.

Holy ****, a 10 from Gamespot and IGN...this could end up as the highest rated game ever - it's already #4 on GameRankings.com (which is nowhere near as cool as it used to be). I'm not gonna say it's perfect, but the top rankings on that site are still pretty accurate if you ask me.

I would be jealous of all of you getting to playing SMG2 less than 24 hours from now, but I wouldn't have time to play it anyway. In fact, 11th June is simply perfect for me - it slips in right after my last exam.
Needless to say, I will be avoiding this thread starting tomorrow. Can't have any of those snazzy level designs spoiled, can we?

I am really excited to play this. I hope it doesn't let me down like NSMBW did, I wasn't impressed with it at all unfortunately.

This is getting crazy reviews so I imagine I am going to love it!

Wow, didn't expect Gamespot to give it a 10 too! Wow!

http://www.gamespot.com/wii/action/supermariogalaxy2/review.html?tag=topslot;img;1

Man! I used to believe in Nintendo! They started with the bribes too I guess. At least the game is still worthy of a 10 regardless.

How early do you think Walmart will put this out?

Midnight?(Not likely to head out then) If I am out at around 8am do they normally have their games out?

Walmart does do midnight launches for some games, and I think this is big enough for it. You might want to check with your local store to check though.

I guess I will be the first to report in. Got mine late in the afternoon today, and played for a good 12 stars. The music in this games stomps all over the first sound track.

Two things I had absolutely no interest were the drill and rock mario, and I was sure as heck set on cloud Mario being lame. Good gravy was I wrong! And yoshi oh man! What a blast it is to run around with him. and so far the terrain looks so different from the first galaxy, but I sware in every screen shot it looks exactly the same. Having a blast so far.

The drill is awesome.  Cloud Mario is awesome.  Rock Mario is great (but a little scary).  It took me awhile to get used to using the pointer for Yoshi's tongue, but now I like it.  I'm now on world 4, and it's all been fun and surprising (and, in parts, super hard).

I had about 30 lives on one that jump with the beat stage. Took me down to 3. I kept going for that comet coin, and I kept dying.

Yoshi handles like a dream! The pointing system really makes him shine! And I have finally come to accept Yoshi's voice. It's a bit cuter plus I get the same classic sound every time I jump on him. Makes me happy.

So, a few days ago I saw an unboxing of SMG2 and it had one of the "green" cases. Mine doesn't have one of those cases, does yours? Just curious!

That's the first thing I noticed when I opened my copy... "not one of those eco friendly game cases"?!

I'm hearing mixed reports on Twitter about it, but it seems to be predominantly wagon wheels.
