Even if previous games had sperical levels i cant remember them doing it well, esp Rachet and clank.

SMG kinda did it right where all others failed

i honestly cant say one bad thing about this game except the story is already been done, even then they give us it in a more epic war like form where bowser has a full on war with the mushroom kingdom.

it's pretty obvious you have no idea what you're saying :|

No idea what I'm saying? I'm saying now a days Nintendo's first party games suck and they need to make some new ones instead of relying on the umpteenth million iteration of Mario, Zelda, and Metroid. As well as any party games/mini game collections because thats pretty much all the Wii has.

The N64 was the last period when Nintendo's games were any good.

Because a 9.5 is obviously a very bad score.

Was I commenting on reviewers scores, no. In my personal opinion Nintendo's first party titles are terrible. The last good first party Nintendo game I played was Ocarina of Time. In addition I think Mario as a series is overrated. Every entry in the series I have played I have not liked.

Your opinion.
I still love playing those IP's.
It are the real games imo, I mean... Don't ya get sick of the same shooters over and over again with a different setting/graphics?
So far, every new Nintendo game with an old IP has done something new that dramaticly changed gameplay.

thats total bullcrap anyway. Nintendo has always made awsome games. The GC and GBA had a huge amount just like the rest. Its just that person probabaly does not have the intelligence or teh age to remeber those games.

Thats the 3rd party problem. Actually if Nitendo had a decent 3rd party support you wouldn't even care if there were another 100 marios on the Wii. But at the moment the only quality titles on the Wii are Nintendo ones, thats why it somewhat ****. 3rd party devs seem only to go for a quick cash in with mini games on the wii.

what is your #1 reason for hating the game?

mine is:

- Because it made me regret selling my wii....

maziso2

actually for me, it's the opposite. It has made me realize that the Wii isn't my type of console and it's time to sell it. If I can't get amped by SMG then really, there isn't much the Wii can do for me. I bought the Wii for the Ninty franchises but frankly, Im just not all that interested with their lineup...I'm going to sell the Wii and get a PS3...

I'm pretty much done with Nintendo at this point, they don't appeal to me at all anymore..:(

I agree with this guy because we're all so shallow that we think the star of a game is more important than the technical and gameplay qualities of the game itself.

This guy is right. Plus, Nintendo have a really nifty way of making each game in a series have an odd familiarity about it, while still being completely fresh, and it warms my heart. Part of how they do this is by using franchises that people know and love.

I'd much rather have a completely new game with the same character as another game than a tired concept reiterated with a new character with no personality that noone ever heard of and noone will remember.

Mario games are family themed. Although it would be great if Peach had breast physics. Maybe in the next one. :oops:

Actually, Nintendo has been experimenting with sphereical worlds since their tech demo Super Mario 128 in 2001, which branched off into the Pikmin series and Super Mario Galaxy.

Did you miss every review on SMG? They say it pretty much brings life to platformers again. They say it is possibly better than Mario 64. :|

Sorry, I need to change what I said... I've never played a 3d mario game. I played new super mario bros and wasn't a fan, but galaxy might be great. Havent watched videos, im buying it solely on the good reception it's getting.instantdeath999
Oh, that's much much better. I've only played maybe 10 hours of 3D mario. Didn't really like it, though the SMG I played at a Gamestop was awesome.

Yoshi's Island had a spherical level long before R&C.

What year was Yoshi's Island? I can think of a few more games with spherical levels, and this must be settled immediately for the sake of System Wars.

Sonic and Knuckles bonus stage was spherical, so it wins.

I don't hate it. There is nothing to hate. its a game. If a game elicits hatred from you, you need to see a shrink. Having said that, this game is just as lackluster as every other Wii game. Collect gems, jump on bad guys, rinse repeat..

In summary: I don't "hate" SMG, but its nothing to write home about.

lets get one thing straight:

"When all is said and done, the thing that really makes Super Mario Galaxy such a standout game isn't the fact that it's another Mario game, but the fact that it doesn't even need to be a Mario game to be successful. Sure, it's got all the nostalgic flavor Mario fans would want, with the updated soundtrack, familiar foes, and various other Mario-related bric-a-brac scattered throughout the adventure, but the game never leans on these nostalgic aspects as a crutch. It instead puts the whole of its focus on its gameplay design, and with good reason. You could probably swap in just about any other characters from practically any other franchise, and this would still be a phenomenally fun game. That it layers all these memorable characters and components on top of that phenomenal design just makes it all the sweeter. If ever there were a must-own Wii game, Super Mario Galaxy is it."
