| '''Cosmic Mario''' is a character that appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. He is a galactic clone of [[Mario]] and thus copies his physical appearance, though he is colored blue with multiple stars and has a higher-pitched voice than his normal counterpart.

| Cosmic Mario appears when a [[Prankster Comet#Cosmic Comet|Cosmic Comet]] is orbiting a [[galaxy]]. Upon the player entering, Cosmic Mario appears at the beginning of the [[mission]] and challenges the player to a race. In order to complete the mission, the player must reach the [[Power Star]] before Cosmic Mario does. If Cosmic Mario reaches the Power Star first, the player loses a life and must restart the race. Colliding with Cosmic Mario during the race causes him to release [[Star Bit]]s. | | {{multiple image |

| | '''Cosmic Mario''' is a character that appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. His physical shape is identical to Mario, while his outer appearance is blue with stars all over, as if he were made out of cosmic matter. He also has an unusually high-pitched voice. If [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] enter a galaxy when a [[Prankster Comet#Cosmic_Comet|Cosmic Comet]] is orbiting a galaxy, Cosmic Mario appears at the beginning at the level and challenges the player to a race. The player must then race through numerous obstacles and reach the finish before Cosmic Mario to earn a [[Power Star]]. If Cosmic Mario manages to reach the Power Star first, Mario will lose a life and must restart the race. |

|
| [[Luigi]] also has a cosmic clone, '''Cosmic Luigi''', who replaces Cosmic Mario if the player is playing as Luigi. Unlike Cosmic Mario, Cosmic Luigi takes advantage of shortcuts more often and uses a large number of [[Long Jump|long jump]]s, making him more difficult to beat.
| | If the player is playing as Luigi, Cosmic Luigi will appear in place of Cosmic Mario. Cosmic Luigi utilizes shortcuts and many [[Long Jump (move)|long jump]]s. As a result, he is faster and much more difficult to beat than Cosmic Mario. |
|
| |
|
| At the start of a race, if the player holds {{button|wii|Stick}} up, then {{button|wii|Z}} when the timer reaches "2," and then hits {{button|wii|A}} just as the race starts, Mario or Luigi gets a [[Rocket Start|Start Dash]], shown by a yellow color appearing on Mario or Luigi, shrinking gradually as a marker at the end of this effect.
| | Cosmic Mario appears to be the equivalent of [[Koopa the Quick]] and [[Il Piantissimo]] from ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', respectively. [[Spooky Speedster]], also from ''Super Mario Galaxy'', is a racer as well. |

| *An unused Cosmic Mario race in the [[Space Junk Galaxy]] is found in the game files. When players start a race, they start at the coordinate 0,0,0, which is the air on which they land on the starting planet. Cosmic Mario does not use voice clips in this variant.<ref> | | *At the start of a race, if the player holds the {{button|wii|Stick}} up, then {{button|wii|Z}} when the timer hits 2, and then hits {{button|wii|A}} just as the race starts, Mario or Luigi will get an extra boost at the beginning of the race, shown by a yellow color appearing on Mario/Luigi, shrinking gradually, being as a marker of the end of the bonus effect. This move is called the [[Rocket Start|Starting Boost]]. |

| | *During the "Underwater Cosmic Mario Race", Cosmic Mario's [[Blue Shell|Koopa Shell]] is blue. |
| *Cosmic Mario/Cosmic Luigi's theme uses a similar arrangement to [[Shadow Mario]]'s theme of the same music, the [[Underground Theme]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' | | *If the player collides with Cosmic Mario/Luigi, [[Star Bit]]s will come out of him and scatter. |
| *On the covers for the ''[[Super Mario Galaxy Original Soundtrack]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2 Original Soundtrack]]'', Mario's silhouette is dark blue covered in stars, resembling Cosmic Mario. | | *Cosmic Mario resembles [[Shadow Mario]] from ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. The German and Korean name for Cosmic Mario means Shadow Mario. |
| *Prior to Cosmic Mario's debut, [[Metal Mario]] had an alternate color scheme where he could be selected into blue in ''[[Mario Golf (Nintendo 64)|Mario Golf]]'' for the [[Nintendo 64]]. | | *Additionally, the theme played in ''Super Mario Sunshine'' when Shadow Mario first appeared can be heard in the Cosmic Mario theme. |
| *The Cosmic Mario/Cosmic Luigi races are the only races in the game that do not have placement markers for what place Mario/Luigi is in.
| | *Cosmic Mario shares its voice clips with the [[Cosmic Clones]]. |
