'''Meteorites''' appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' as objects that [[Mario]] (or [[Luigi]]) can be launched at targets. These round meteorites are gold and have the [[Ground-Pound Switch]] symbol on them. The symbol on the meteorites is not emblazoned to the rocks themselves and therefore can move if the target moves (it always faces away from the target). Meteorites are located in [[Bowser's Lava Lair]], [[Bowser's Gravity Gauntlet]], and [[Bowser's Galaxy Generator]]. A meteorite can be used by [[jump]]ing into the air near one, automatically attracting the player character via its gravitational pull. A meteorite can be launched toward a target if [[Mario]] performs a [[Ground Pound]] on it from a certain position. The first time meteorites are used is to break apart large stone locks blocking the way through giant doors in several [[Bowser]] levels. Meteorites are actually used during battles against Bowser to attack him. After taking four hits from a meteor, or eight hits in the final battle, Bowser is defeated. If a meteorite is not ground-pounded by Mario quickly enough during a Bowser battle, it will lose its golden color and turn black, after which it will crumble and disappear. | |||

Mario about to ground-pound a meteorite in Bowser's Lava Lair
- “A meteorite! You can ground-pound it to break down the door!”
- —Luma, Super Mario Galaxy 2
Meteorites appear in Super Mario Galaxy 2 as objects that Mario (or Luigi) can be launched at targets. These round meteorites are gold and have the Ground-Pound Switch symbol on them. The symbol on the meteorites is not emblazoned to the rocks themselves and therefore can move if the target moves (it always faces away from the target). Meteorites are located in Bowser's Lava Lair, Bowser's Gravity Gauntlet, and Bowser's Galaxy Generator. A meteorite can be used by jumping into the air near one, automatically attracting the player character via its gravitational pull. A meteorite can be launched toward a target if Mario performs a Ground Pound on it from a certain position. The first time meteorites are used is to break apart large stone locks blocking the way through giant doors in several Bowser levels. Meteorites are actually used during battles against Bowser to attack him. After taking four hits from a meteor, or eight hits in the final battle, Bowser is defeated. If a meteorite is not ground-pounded by Mario quickly enough during a Bowser battle, it will lose its golden color and turn black, after which it will crumble and disappear.
