Some Mario Galaxy storyline

Some Mario Galaxy storyline

Some of the story for Super Mario Galaxy has been revealed.

A comet passes over the Mushroom Kingdom every 100 years and rains down magical stars and stardust. As Peach and the gang are enjoying the celebrations though, Bowser and his friends launch an attack. Mario tries to intervene but it all goes wrong and he ends up on a moon above. Good stuff hey.

The game will feature six major regions, split into 40 galaxies with 120 stars to collect in total. Some examples of galaxies are:

  • Gateway Galaxy - Hop across planets as you chase space rabbits for their stars and battle a gigantic Goomba.
  • Star Dust Galaxy - Use beam stars to get around space debris, travel across a disused rocket and rescue toads.
  • Cookie Factory Galaxy - Moving platforms and bottomless pits.

A number of power-ups can be collected on your travels:

  • Super Mushroom (restores max health)
  • Invincibility Star
  • Fire Flower
  • Bee Mario Suit
  • Boo Mario Suit

I hope it has Luigi in it. Hopefully it will do what Super Mario 64 couldn't do, and what Super Mario Sunshine possibly could've done but didn't.

I was all excited about the story. Until we see that there are 120 stars to collect. Sound familiar? Can't there be a 3D Mario game without the Star/Shine collecting? Yeah, it's fun and all, but it's a used idea.

Fishmon, yes I did. But it wasn't in full 3D.

'bout time they brought the fire flower into 3D. I reckon if there's a two player mode, Luigi and Yoshi should be in it.

Is yoshi in it?

Nintendo won't tell us if luigi or yoshi is in it. They won't reveal it.

Geez, Nintendo needs new storylines. Every mario game, its always peach has been kidnapped by bowser. Three of my favorite characters mario luigi and yoshi need to team up. If you can play as yoshi, I hope he's rideable. Even better, maybe a new storyline includes luigi and yoshi getting kidnapped and you can switch between partners. Or maybe if you find a yoshi egg, mario and luigi both at the same time can ride yoshi. Just some thoughts.

Fishmon said:

Uh, Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi have already teamed up in Mario 64 DS. So did Wario. You people need to get your facts straight.'.

insultman911 said:

Yeah, but no one can ride yoshi! You can't play them at the same time and warios fat ass got involved.

YoshLee said:

I hope this game has yoshi, or what would almost be better (almost) is a yoshi suit.

This game may even tie with Super Smash Brawl! It's so appealing, so 3-D and colorful. So amazing! I like the setting as well.
