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 cancelled Mario game for the GameCube, Super Mario 128. The game is scheduled to be released in North America on November 12th, 2007.
Super Mario Galaxy, unlike other Mario games, takes place in outer space. The game's levels consist of many planets, some big and some small, some flat and some round. The game will have six worlds and 40 "galaxies" as well as 120 stars to collect.
For some odd reason, many of the enemies and three of the known bosses have tube-like mouths that resemble those of Snifits.
Story
Not much is known about the story yet. Princess Peach gets abducted by a creature from a planet other than the Mushroom Planet and brings her out into outer space. Mario must follow it throughout the galaxy, explore worlds, and battle monsters he's never seen before. Bowser has been shown battling Mario in a screenshot, but it is currently unknown how he will play into the story.
Unique Features
Super Mario Galaxy has many brand-new features that no Mario game has ever had in Nintendo history. One of which is the Star Cursor. With the Wii Remote, the player can shake it and make Mario do a spin. Not a Spin Jump, just a quick spin, conjecturally called Star Spin.
The game features new items like the Boost Star, which allows Mario to launch off of a planet and go flying to the next. As stated before, there is no warning that a boss might be coming on the planet, no indication that Mario may be facing something terrible or something peaceful on where he's headed next, and no loading screens or mission select for levels.
Another incredible feature is the bosses. Mr. Miyamoto has given the game incredible alien bosses; a giant three-eyed spider with wings, a huge mechanical three-legged robot, and an Octo resembling, Gooper-Blooper-like lava octopus.
New enemies have come into the game too, like the Cosmic Bloopers, or the Cosmic Bullet Bills. However, Mario meets new friends too, like Cosmic Toads and Space Rabbits. Stars make a comeback, leaving Shine Sprites in the dust with their new orange-golden shine. The game will have the traditional "collect the 120 stars" goal that was first introduced in Super Mario 64.
Additionally, Mario will retain his ability to gain differant abilities, via suit. Similar to the Super Mario 64, where he could get the Wing Cap and Metal Cap, Mario will be able to turn into Bee Mario and Boo Mario, with more to come. Bee Mario allows him to fly for a short time, to get up to higher ledges. Boo Mario allows Mario to go through certain walls.
New Bosses
Three known bosses have been playable for the game in the e3 demo. A large Snifit-like robot, a giant Cosmic Blooper king, and a giant alien Scuttle Bug. Recently revealed was a huge, half Piranha Plant half dinosaur creature with a head resembling Petey Piranha's. See their articles:
