I really hate the prankster comets that involve purple coins in partiular the flip - switch one and the tree slide one I cant get them for the life of me one time i got 99 coins on the slide one but ever since i keep getting like 98 or hitting a spikiy ball right at the f-ing end and i cant clear the last jump from lack of speed. If there will be a SMG 3 PLEASE NO PURPLE COIN CHALLANGES!!!!!!!! Or timed stars I hate being in a rush I like exploreing and talking my time. What I noticed is the game gets so much tougher when you get around the 35th Star part of the game unlike SMG 1 where it got harder at the end not like a third the way in on SMG 2!!!! Anyone got both those purple coins stars yet???

In the past, Super Mario Galaxy 1 pissed me off to the point of me deleting my save file and throwing the game case against my wall. For that reason I'm not even going to buy SMG2. I am tired of playing games that do nothing but piss me off. And I agree the coins are seriously stupid. I did manage to get 242 stars recently though, but I feel so damn stupid for wasting my time with it because half the time I was getting pissed off.

How could that game tick you off so much? It's not that difficult.

Galaxy 1 for me was too easy, every level I could do in one go. So I'm looking forward to Galaxy 2 quite a lot.

I love a good platforming challenge...got the first 121 stars in SMG1, but the disc wouldn't read right and let me into the others (not like it was anything other than doing it again with Luigi, but still...). As soon as 2 gets here from my order, I'm tearing right into it so I can see how challenging it actually is. ^_^

This is awesome. Looks like SMG2 is less like a cake walk than Galaxy 1. But then again.. people said the purple coins in SMG1 were hard.. which they were not.

Don't mind the challenges at all, but I still hate the spring power-up boards. Hated them in the first too!

Stars for purple coins are the only stars I don't have(not all of them, anyway). I refuse to waste anymore time on them.

I like some Prankster Comets like the Daredevil Boss Fights and Speed Runs but I hate when I have to kill a number of enemies in a time limit unless it is that Chimp guy because I like those challenges.

Well then you must not be very good at Mario games, it's not as hard as you're making it seem. It's SMG2 it's not suppose to be easier then the first one, if it was then Nintendo would've let down all of us that've beaten SMG. Challenges are what makes it even more rewarding when you actualy get the star. Either go practice to get better or don't play but stop complaining about it.

Exactly.

And this is the kind of thing you make a blog about, not post in the Wii forum. No one really cares if you're not that good at a Mario game.

You really shouldn't be getting mad at the game. It's not the game's fault you can't beat the levels, after all.

lol well people said they wanted harder right? The purple coin slide can be bitter because not only do you have to watch the road so to say, you have to make sure you get the coins and that you take the right route because its a 360 gravity slide and some sides have more coins than others.

The purple coin challenges are my favorite part of SMG2 so far. It adds much needed challange to the game. SMG1 was really easy I'm glad the sequel has been a bit tougher.

Master_Of_Fools

lol, tough levels huh? not making fun of you or showing off but i actually didnt have such a hard time with any specific level yet, especially the ones you mentioned. yes some levels have been a little challenging but not something i would spend an hour + on (actually takes me about 3 tries and sometimes 5 for really difficult levels max). what i love about SMG2 is th increased challenge, i am loving it! SMG was a little too easy for me. dont forget that the comet stars are ment to be challenging, speed runs, purple coins, etc, all are to make a level that you have already eat and seen a little more challenging.

tip: the purple coin slide thing has a lot more than 100 coins in the course, you dont need to get each and every coin on the track, miss some but make sure you still earn the ones near to you and ones that you know you can get, if their are some coins in a specific hard place just avoid getting them.

oh i forgot to mention, so far im on world 5 and i have 61 stars, i left some hidden stars on the way but ill get back to them, im gonna beat this game 100 percent !!!

In SMG1 I hardly cared to get all the stars anyway. In SMG2 I plan on trying harder. :P

There have been a few challenging stars, but I have gotten them all in a few tries. I wish SMG2 was even harder, I still am not feeling much challenge and Im breezing right through the game. I cant see how people think the game is hard at all.

The biggest problem with Galaxy 1 was the lack of difficulty until the last few stars. Mario Galaxy 2 fixed this problem. I don't see the issue.

Nintendo just can't win. You guys complain if Mario's too easy and you get through the game without any game overs or getting frustrated. Then you complain when they up the ante and make to where it will frustrate you and cause to get game overs. I too had a tremendous issue with the Flipswitch Galaxy Prankster Comet, I just beat it yesterday, and it did frustrate me to no end, but you know what the best part of a game frustrating you is? The feeling you get when you finally accomplish your goal. Its a great feeling, one that was experienced much more often in the NES and SNES days. You guys who are playing and getting frustrated with the game, if when you finally accomplish your goal you do not feel that awesome feeling of accomplishment, should consider a new hobby. Essentially that is what gaming is about.

Amazing how that works right?lol. But the trick to the Chompster Comet is to plan a course where they wont be in your way. If you have to hit the button at the end, don't go near the button until you have to press it and they will stay out of your way. Also running in little circles before you get to your goal will slow them down as well.

So far the prankster comet levels have been easier in SMG2 than in the first for me.

Now, I'm only 28 stars in, but I gotta say so far SMG2 is VERY easy. I'm going hold them to it- THE Shigeru Miyamoto and the forum users here- that the games is harder.

In my opinion, Super Mario Galaxy 2 is harder. I am at 45 stars. I have also been trying to get every possible star, and building up slowly, instead of just rushing to the end of the game. I would assume, much like SMG, Super Mario Sunshine, and SM64, getting to and beating Bowser is not that hard, collecting every star will be.

For the record, I did the flip switch purple coin today. Took me a couple tries, but it really wasn't that hard, for me anyway....

I love the challenge of the purple coin stars. Sure, I do get frustrated sometimes with some of the more difficult ones, but overall they're just a great addition IMO. And generally, any of the comet stars that give you a different kind of challenge is great. The only ones I don't really care for so far are the daredevil runs, and the regular timed missions (the ones without the stopwatches you have to collect), because it doesn't do enough to change things up IMO. I also agree with Jamisonia, the sense of accomplishment is great for some of the more challenging comets, usually outweighing the frustration I may get from them.

Yeah, I agree. I left the comets until last in SMG because I thought they were really hard and I got frusterated (not all of them were hard of course). But with SMG2 I try it a few times and I can get it. Actually, my favorite so far is the purple coins! haha. I only get really mad at a few, but I beat them-the chompworks was SO annoying to me.

Yes, the game is hard, but and while i might sound like a cliche, is not the game's fault, you actually have to improve your skills in order to beat it, and when you do, you get this feeling of pure satisfaction, i remember that galaxy, after the Lava Sea, i think it is something about a clock, anyway, i died so many times trying to get the first 2 stars, but once that i get them, it was pure joy.

Sliding one can be a pain in the arse. I will agree on that, but every time you hear Mario's voice, it takes away all the frustration lol.

I thought Sunshine was harder. I beat Galaxy and is half way to Galaxy 2. To these days, I still have not beaten Sunshine yet.
