The '''Throwback Galaxy''' is a galaxy from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' which is a redesigned [[Whomp's Fortress]] from ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. The music is a jazzy arrangement of the original ''Super Mario 64'' main theme, as the original version was also played on Whomp's Fortress. Although the course is generally identical, a few minor changes have been made here. | |||
The '''Throwback Galaxy''' is a galaxy from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' which is a redesigned [[Whomp's Fortress]] | New enemies have been added, such as [[Paragoomba]]s, [[Skeeter]]s and a [[Wiggler]]. Other enemies seen first in the original game also return, like [[Piranha Plant]]s, [[Thwomp]]s and [[Whomp]]s. Some [[Bob-omb Buddy|Bob-omb Buddies]] also appear in the galaxy, and even make reference to how [[Mario]] seems familiar, a reference to his earlier visit to Whomp's Fortress in ''Super Mario 64'' and [[Super Mario 64 DS|its remake]]. A [[Whomp]] is found at the top of the area, and defeating it will open an area where the [[Whomp King]] is found. A [[Comet Medal]], [[Rainbow Note]]s (released from breaking a crate, playing the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' underground theme) and a bonus planet featuring Piranha Plants can be found in the stage too. Several [[Cloud Flower]]s also appear in the galaxy's second mission. | ||

However, the floating islands that contained [[Red Coin]]s and the area where the [[Star Switch]] mission is done in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'' is no longer found. The cannon used to destroy two walls in a mission in the previous games is replaced with a Sling Star. Also, those walls are chipped in this galaxy, which is a reference to that mission. There are a lot of enemies, such as Thwomps, and Piranha Plants in this planet, and at the top, Mario can defeat a Whomp to access a vertical tunnel which will take him to the underside of the planet where the [[Whomp King]] is fought. | ||

===Return of The Whomp King=== | |||
[[Image:Whompkingsmg2.png|225px|thumb|left|[[Whomp King]] against [[Mario]].]] | |||
The first mission here is very reminiscent of [[Whomp's Fortress#Star 1: Chip Off Whomp's Block|the same mission]] in ''Super Mario 64'' and [[Super Mario 64 DS|its DS remake]], with a few minor changes. Now, when the player gets to the top, he battles a regular [[Whomp]], which, due to the size changes in the species between ''Super Mario 64'' and ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', appears to be more or less identical to the original [[Whomp King]] in size. The biggest difference between the first star in "Chip off Whomp's Block" and the first star of "Throwback Galaxy" is, upon defeating this Whomp, a hole opens up in the center of the platform, which the player must then drop down to get to the planet's underside, where the player fights the now even bigger and much tougher Whomp King. | |||
[[File:Whimp.png|90px|thumb|right|A [[Whimp]]]] | |||
His size is much larger than before, due to the fact that normal Whomps are about the size that he was in ''Super Mario 64''. Because of his size, he also can walk around the battlefield much more quickly than before. The area he will slam down on is now highlighted in red. The Whomp King also has some new attacks, which also make him more difficult. For one attack, he does a short hop, which will stun Mario or Luigi if they are on the ground. This shockwave also occurs when he slams down as his primary attack. A second is when he stomps his right foot down, and a group of [[Whimp]]s appear from the ground. However, these don't make much of a difference to the battle, as the Whomp King will more or less likely destroy the Whimps himself anyway. He is harder to get on top of, as his increased thickness makes the flat surface of his back higher up than it used to be, so Mario will likely have more trouble getting the chance to attack him than before. Instead of being able to [[Ground Pound]] anywhere on his back to damage him, the player must hit a small imprint on his back. Additionally, Mario can't "go though" the Whomp King's body, and he can fall off the arena. When defeated, he will recite the same speech as in the original ''Super Mario 64'', as well as then hitting the ground while muttering "Dang it!" under his breath, before exploding and handing over the Power Star. | |||
== | ===Silver Stars in the Whomp Fortress=== | ||
[[ | There are [[Cloud Flower]]s and five [[Silver Star]]s added in this level. With the help of the Cloud Flower, Mario/Luigi needs to get all the Silver Stars in the galaxy, so he is rewarded with a Power Star. The Whomp that leads to the Whomp King when defeated is replaced by two [[Paragoomba]]s. Most of the Silver Stars require skillful use of the Cloud Flower, as one floats over a [[Black Hole]] behind the fortress, while others are located on clouds that only Cloud Mario could reach. At the top of the fortress floats the final Silver Star. | ||
== | ===Whomp Silver Star Speed Run=== | ||
This is Throwback Galaxy's [[Prankster Comet]]. The stage is the same as ''Silver Stars in the Whomp Fortress'', only there is a time limit of two minutes. If Mario or Luigi grabs the five Silver Stars before the time ends, he gains a Power Star. | |||
===Green Star 1=== | |||

The | The Green Star is found on the [[Whomp's Fortress]]'s top. The player has to wait untill the Whomp is near the star, then perform a [[Wall Jump]] on it to reach it. | ||
===Green Star 3=== | |||
This Green Star is found far out in the skies of the fortress, near the clouds with [[coin]]s and a [[Silver Star]]. Mario/Luigi must use [[Cloud Mario|his]] clouds to reach it. | |||
