Product Info

  • Brand: Nintendo
  • EAN: 0045496901905
  • Manufacturer: Nintendo

Features

  • Skilled players will want to collect new Comet Metals, which will unlock harder levels with even more challenges
  • Mario collects stars as he travels from galaxy to galaxy, sometimes upside-down, sometimes floating from place to place. Every level is new, but the game retains the charm, sense of wonder and beauty in line with Mario's history
  • On some stages, Mario can find an egg, smash it open and hop onto the back of Yoshi. Yoshi can use his tongue to grab items and shoot them back at enemies, or to snag attach points and swing across chasms
  • Yoshi has an interesting diet. When he eats a Dash Pepper, he gets so hot and frenzied he can run up steep inclines and vertical walls. When he eats a Blimp Fruit, he inflates like a balloon and floats to new heights
  • New power-ups include a drill that Mario uses to tunnel through the planet's surface all the way to the other side of a planet

  • Summary: Mario is still the King of Games!
  • Comment: I never in a million years thought this game would be as good as it is! I loved Galaxy 1 and o me Galaxy 1 is still a better game than Galaxy 2, but this game is still amazing and one of the best games I have ever played. Galaxy 2 does everything for the most part perfect. The return of Yoshi is by far my favorite thing about this game, and Nintendo treated Yoshi very good in this game. Each Galaxy is different and fun in it's own way. Bowser looks amazing in this game, but I think the Bowser battles in Galaxy 1 are better than the battle in this game. The music is great in this game but once again I think galaxy 1 had better music. Galaxy 2 is a great game though and is probably my 2nd or 3rd favorite game of all time. I have played video games for over 20 years and this is near the very top of my list. Mario Galaxy 2 puts the crown back on Mario's head as the ultimate king of games, and shows everyone that the hero in a game does not need a gun to be the best around. Mario Galaxy 2 is an amazing game that has 242 stars to collect in all and will challenge you more than any other 3D Mario game. If you own a Wii and are a Mario fan you owe it to yourself to buy this game. Have a great day everyone.

  • Summary: SMG 2
  • Comment: The first SMG (Super Mario Galaxy) deserves to be ranked as ONE OF the top games for any platform, IMHO. SMG 2 had a hard task in front of it. Besting one of the top games of all time?

    Overall, I think they did it. They kept the same play and creativity, and added some new features to an already rich game. My favorite addon is the 2nd player features. It really allows your buddy to help you out.

    If I had to find a downside (and I'm really looking hard here)
    - it's that it seemed easier to me (although many people mentioned it was harder)
    - It seems shorter than SMG, although it's still perfectly long enough.

    This game should get 100/100 + some points for extra credit, but the best I can give it here is a 5 star rating.

  • Summary: fun and different - multiplayer is OK but not the best
  • Comment: This game is a lot of fun and has some different controls than I am used to in traditional mario games - I never played the first one so it might be similar.
    The only thing I dont like is that player two gets a bit of a raw deal. I was thinking multiplayer would be more equal (like the super mario brothers for wii).

  • Summary: Little Bobby Loves Mario Galaxy 2
  • Comment: I bought the Super Mario Galaxy 2 game for my four year old grandson's birthday because he liked another Mario Wii game so much. Although the game is very eye appealing, Little Bobby found Galaxy 2 a bit more challenging at the beginning, which made me nervous. However, as he gets more familiar with it, he loves the game and goes into great detail about the challenges he is having on the various planets. He does not appear to be frustrated with defeats...and he relishes his conquests. His five year old cousin Chase even enjoys being an advisor to LB as he plays the game. I am extremely satisfied with this game. Each planet is different enough in look and feel to provide interest for any age level. It can be tough to beat if you're not a gamer geek, but the beauty of the game and it's addictive nature keeps you playing while you get the experience to come up to speed. Although two people can play the game, it really seems designed for one, in my opinion. This is a two handed game, requiring that you connect the numchuck (sic?). LB had no problem mastering the two handed requirement, although he seems to be a natural with the WII (he holds his own in bowling and tennis). I highly recommend this game...whether you have kids or not.

  • Summary: Takes me back!
  • Comment: I bought this game for my son after playing super mario galaxy, we had to have the second edition! It reminds me so much of my first Nintendo-back in the late 80's! The music is almost the same and the ghost world too!.. but it's so much more challenging! We have a family challenge going on right now. This is a great game that you won't lose interest in!
