Super Mario Galaxy - Impressions

Super Mario GalaxyI recently had a chance to get my hands on Super Mario Galaxy. Interesting thing is before you fire up your copy the Wii makes you run an update. Another funny note is that all the diagrams in game show the Wiimote with the new Wii silicone glove on them, I thought that was pretty funny.

Super Mario Galaxies for the Nintendo Wii is definitely a uniqe twist on the tried and true Mario franchise, but this bad boy should come with a warning: May make you dizzy after playing for extended times! The premise is that Mario is in space and as always needs to save the princess, but this time in space. Mario bounces form planet to planet collecting stars and spinning his way past Goombas to get more stars.

The physics in Mario is very interesting as you typically are running around a small planet trying to collect or free something to jump to the next planet. This game is truly 3D, to the point that I was actually tilting my head while I was playing. You actually run around these worlds in full 3D and then leap from one to another solving mini puzzles.

The game is definitely unique in presentation and controls, while providing fresh new style graphiccs and gamplay. This is a good pick upfor any Wii owner looking to get some good Mario fun in and a new experience. Expect a full review of this bad boy very shortly.

    I’m still not completely sold on Galaxy. It’s getting great reviews, but I’m still a die hard Mario 64 fan. Does this one hold a candle to that classic?
