'''''Super Mario Galaxy''''' is the newest sequel to the series of [[Mario]]'s 3-D platformers, after ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. It uses parts of the canceled Mario game for the [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]], ''[[Super Mario 128]]''. With 700,000 copies preordered in Japan, and 400,000 in the U.S., it is the most demanded [[Wii]] game to date.
''Super Mario Galaxy'', unlike other Mario games, takes place in deep space. Most of the game's levels consist of many small planets and planetoids, however some are as big as real life planets. The game has 121 stars to collect, although the player will have to go through the first 120 stars twice (once as Mario and once as Luigi) to unlock the final star.
== Story ==
{{spoiler}}
[[Image:Galaxytown.JPG|thumb|left|Peach's neighborhood]]
[[Image:unknownfloatingobject.jpg|thumb|left|[[Princess Peach's Castle|Peach's castle]] being lifted into space]]
Every hundred years a comet passes over the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] and rains down magical stars and stardust. [[Princess Peach]] invites [[Mario]] to [[Princess Peach's Castle | her castle]] to join in the festivities and receive a special gift. As the citizens of the kingdom are celebrating the centennial event, Bowser attacks the Toads with his [[airship]]s and freezes them in crystals. He "invites" Peach to the creation of his new galaxy and warps into space with her castle to the [[Bowser's Galaxy Reactor | center of the universe]]. When Mario tries to save her, a [[Magikoopa]] breaks the airborne path to the castle causing Mario to fall onto an unknown land.
Mario later wakes up on a small grassy moon and meets three [[Space Rabbit]]s who promise to tell [[Mario]] where he is if he catches them. When he does so, they take him to meet [[Princess Rosalina]], who tells Mario that the universe is in great peril after Bowser attacked her "ship", the [[Comet Observatory]], and stole the [[Power Star]]s, including the seven [[Grand Star]]s. Without these, the [[Comet Observatory]] is doomed. Rosalina asks him to rescue the [[Grand Star]]s in order to defeat Bowser, who took Peach to the [[Bowser's Galaxy Reactor | center of the universe]]. Mario then starts his journey across the galaxies, freeing [[Power Star | Power-]] and [[Grand Star]]s. Once five of the Grand Stars are collected, the Comet Observatory becomes a starship and takes Mario to the [[Bowser's Galaxy Reactor | center of the universe]].
Here he defeats Bowser in his brand-new galaxy, retrieves the last Grand Star, and rescues Princess Peach. Without this [[Grand Star]], the [[sun]] of Bowser's near-complete galaxy undergoes a supernova and becomes a gigantic black hole. Everything in the universe begins to fall in. The Lumas from the Comet Observatory, including the Luma who had faithfully accompanied Mario, throw themselves into the black hole, in order to neutralize it. The Lumas attack the black hole's singularity, and then it soon disintegrates in a massive explosion. Mario appears in front of Rosalina, who had somehow managed to save him from the cataclysm. She tells him that this is not the end, but a new beginning for the universe, and that the universe is an endless cycle, but one that never repeats itself exactly the same way each time.
[[image:endingscene.PNG|thumb|right|Various characters celebrating after all of the galaxies have combined.]]
Mario later awakens in the Mushroom Kingdom near Peach's castle. He sees everyone he's met throughout his adventure celebrating, while Bowser and Peach sit next to him. "Welcome! Welcome new galaxy!" [[Mario]] exclaims, as the camera zooms out into space, revealing that the whole universe has been merged into one giant galaxy, and the game ends. If the player has finished the game with 120 stars, after the credits Rosalina and a group of Lumas appear on the planet Mario started on at the beginning of the game. Rosalina says "I'll be watching you from the stars," and flies off to the Comet Observatory. Then the white Luma is shown to be alive, now residing on the small planet. Finally, if the player has just beaten the game with 120 stars with Mario, a Luigi tab will appear with him saying ''Super Luigi Galaxy!''.
== Unique Features ==
''Super Mario Galaxy'' has many brand-new features that no Mario game has ever had, one of which is the [[Star Cursor]]. The player can shake the [[Wii Remote]] and make Mario perform a [[Star Spin]]. The Star Cursor is also used to perform a variety of tasks, from using [[Pull Star]]s, to manipulating [[Sling Pod]]s, to collecting [[Star Bits]].
Unlike the last two titles, a "Co-Star" (Co-op) mode is available, in which the second player controls a second [[Star Cursor]]. The extra Star Cursor, unlike the main one, has the power to hold enemies still, shake bushes, and push certain things around.
[[Image:cingcaliente.jpg|thumb|left|''Super Mario Galaxy'' unravels brand-new gameplay features and extraordinary bosses.]]
The game features new items such as the [[Launch Star]], which allows Mario to launch off of a planet and go flying to the next. There is little or no warning that a boss might be located on the next planet, little indication that Mario may be facing something terrible or something peaceful on where he's headed next, and no loading times and screens
[[Manta Ray]]s take the place of [[Bloopers]] from ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. Mario will ride them in a pair of mini-game-like racing stages.
New enemies in this game include the [[Electrogoomba]]s and [[Mandibug]]s. However, Mario meets new friends too, such as Space Rabbits. [[Power Star | Stars]] make a comeback, leaving [[Shine Sprite]]s in the dust with their new orange-golden shine. The game will have the traditional goal of collecting 120 stars (first seen in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''), though with the slight twist of an unlockable finale star at the end and a new mission to re-collect all stars playing as Luigi, making for a grand total of 242 collectible stars.
Additionally, Mario retains his ability to gain different abilities, via special mushrooms. Similar to ''Super Mario 64'', in which he could obtain the [[Wing Cap | Wing-]], [[Vanish Cap | Vanish-]], and [[Metal Cap]]s, Mario is able to collect mushrooms, such as the Bee Mushroom and the Boo [[Mushroom]], which allow him to transform into [[Bee Mario]] and [[Boo Mario]], respectively. The [[Life Shroom | Life Mushroom]] replenishes any lost health and adds a second health meter, making [[Mario]]'s max. health six. Other powerups include the [[Spring Mushroom]], [[Fire Flower]], and [[Ice Flower]]. In addition, the [[Cannon]] from [[Super Mario 64]] returns.
The game also has a level intro for each and every star, as in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. Similar to Princess Peach's castle in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', the [[Comet Observatory]] acts as the game's hub world.
The game also contains side-scrolling levels reminiscent of [[New Super Mario Bros.]] with classic enemies such as [[Thwomp]]s and [[Piranha Plant]]s.
As in Super Mario Sunshine, Mario can jump on NPCs to gain extra height or annoy them.
It also features items and enemies that were absent in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', including [[Goomba]]s, [[Swooper]]s, the long jump, and [[Koopa shell]]s.
[[Image:LuigiInGalaxy.PNG|thumb|Luigi encountering Bowser]]
Once the player beats the game and gains 120 stars as Mario, he or she can go back to Rosalina and ask to fight Bowser again. Once Bowser is re-defeated, the Player now has the option to play as [[Luigi]]. He is faster and jumps higher than Mario, but he has less friction, making the game slightly harder. Luigi's [[Star Spin]] also takes slightly longer to re-charge, and he has less air capacity than his brother. Luigi also loses air for every time he uses the Star Spin underwater. Once the player beats the game and collects 120 stars as Luigi, the 121st star becomes available.
When playing through the game as [[Luigi]], the stars that required Mario to meet Luigi still feature a non-playable Luigi, bringing up the issue of two Luigis in the game. When the playable Luigi first saves the non-playable one from the [[Ghostly Galaxy]], Luigi dismisses his rescuer merely as someone in the universe who happens to look like him. When Luigi rescues himself afterwards, the lost Luigi refers to him as "me" (for example, "I knew I could rely on... me!"). [[Princess Rosalina | Rosalina]] dismisses the two as twins. At first, they appear to be exactly the same. However, if one looks closely at them, one will notice the playable Luigi is wearing lighter green clothes and is slightly shorter. It is unknown which one is the true Luigi.
[[Super Mario Galaxy]] contains a few different types of [[Power Star | stars]], including red, green, and [[Prankster Comet|comet]] [[Power Star | stars]]. The green [[Power Star | stars]] are secret [[Power Star | stars]] which are used to unlock the [[Super_Mario_Galaxy#The_Trial_Galaxies|Trial Galaxies]] and one red [[Power Star |star]] appears when [[Mario]] returns to the gate, which allows usage of the [[Red Star]] in the Observatory.
The thirty [[Prankster Comet|comet]] [[Power Star | stars]] are obtained by completing special challenges in the larger galaxies, such as speed runs of certain missions, "daredevil" runs (in which [[Mario]]'s max health is one), racing cosmic clones of Mario or [[Luigi]], and double the speed of enemies. Any one of these (and only one per galaxy) appear at random times in each of the fifteen multi-star galaxies. The other fifteen are a fifth comet, common to each galaxy that appears after defeating Bowser for the first time, forcing missions where the player must collect one hundred [[Purple Coin|Purple Coins]].
If the player collects 9999 [[Star Bit|Star Bits]] along with 120 stars, all the coconuts in the game turn into watermelons, though 6000 star bits must be fed to the [[#Hungry Luma Galaxies|Hungry Lumas]] to get 7 of those stars.

The domes are found in the [[Comet Observatory]], where new areas become accessible as Mario gains [[Power Star]]s and [[Grand Star]]s. A minimum number of Power Stars is required to have enough power to go to each multi-star galaxy, single non-Grand Star galaxies with a ? Block icon when locked are bonuses for finishing certain star missions.

The Official Nintendo Magazine UK gave the game 97%, but Donkey Kong Country 2 and Super Mario World 2 got 98% in past issues of Official Nintendo Magazine. It was called the best game of the decade and praised for having excellent graphics, sound and gameplay as well as a mixture of new features and classic features.
== Forms ==
Mario has many forms in this game:
*[[Bee Mario]]
*[[Boo Mario]]
*[[Fire Mario]]
*[[Flying Mario]]
*[[Ice Mario]]
*[[Rainbow Star|Rainbow Mario]]
*[[Spring Mario]]

== Trivia ==
*Bowser uprooted Peach's castle once before, in ''[[Paper Mario]]'', but only lifted it into the sky, and it is unknown if it was in space in that game, or if it was simply dark outside.
*Like the beginning of ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', ''[[Paper Mario]]'' and ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', this game's opening features a letter from Peach to Mario.
*Surfing 101 and The Galaxy's Greatest Wave have the same functions as ''Super Mario Sunshine'''s [[Ricco Harbor]] minigame ''Blooper Safari'', with the Manta Ray replacing the [[Blooper]]s.
*People who pre-ordered Galaxy got a small booklet and a commemorative coin with Mario soaring and a Luma on it.
*By coincidence, the title ''Super Mario Galaxy'' was first mentioned in a fan letter written to [[Nintendo Power]] by Jimmy Peterford of Glen Cove, New York. The letter in question, which was printed in the December 1991 issue, detailed a fantasy game system called the Raw Power System, which would come bundled with a game titled ''Super Mario Galaxy'', but in Jimmy's words, would be "better known as ''Super Mario Bros. 24''!"
