[[File:SMG2 Throwback View.png|thumb|left|250px|A full view of the planet.]]
The '''Throwback Galaxy''' is a galaxy from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' which is a redesigned [[Whomp's Fortress]] 
from ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. 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. 

The clouds in the background are notably darker than the original Whomp's Fortress, and [[black hole]]s were added below the course. 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, [[Whomp]]s, and [[Bomp]]s. Some [[Bob-omb Buddy|Bob-omb Buddies]] also appear in the galaxy, and even mention that [[Mario]] seems familiar, a reference to his earlier visit to Whomp's Fortress in ''Super Mario 64'' and its remake. A [[Whomp]] is found at the top of the fortress, and defeating it will open an area where the [[Whomp King]] is found. A [[Comet Medal]], [[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.
==Planets==
===[[Whomp's Fortress]] (Starting Planet)===
[[File:SMG2 Bob-omb Buddy Screenshot.png|thumb|205px|left|The very start of the level.]]
A planet almost identical to [[Whomp's Fortress]] in ''Super Mario 64''. However, the floating islands that contained [[Red Coin]]s and the area where the [[Star Switch]] mission is done in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'' are no longer found. The cannon used to destroy two walls in a mission in the previous games is replaced with a Sling Star, along with the points in the walls already being destroyed. There are a lot of enemies, such as Thwomps and Piranha Plants, on 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. The walls on the bridged side of the fortress appear chipped away from the mission "[[Blast Away the Wall]]" from ''Super Mario 64''.

===Bonus Planet===
[[File:SMG2 Throwback Teleporter Planet.png|thumb|left|200px|Mario on the Bonus Planet of the Throwback Galaxy.]]
There is a [[Teleporter (Super Mario Galaxy 2)|teleporter]] near the base of Whomp's Fortress that leads to the Bonus Planet, which is inhabited by multiple [[Piranha Plant]]s. If Mario is able to defeat them all within the time limit, he receives three [[1-Up Mushroom]]s.

During the second mission, the player can use a [[Cloud Flower]] to get to the Bonus Planet, which is only a short distance away from the main planet. However, the player has used all three of their clouds at this point, so they are not able to get back again.

==Trivia==
*The [[Bob-omb Buddy]] who requests that Mario gets the Power Star back from the [[Whomp King]] in [[Return of the Whomp King]] states that the Whomp King is at the top of the fortress. This is not true, as the Whomp King is fought at the bottom of the planet, while one of his [[Whomp]] minions is at the top instead.
*When the [[Whomp King]] is defeated in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', he will explode and Mario will be standing on the ground, while in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', Mario will still be in the air after the Whomp King is defeated.
