I'm not really concerned to much about the issue of the 1ups. That seem kinda pointless if you really think about it since if you do happen to get a game over, you'd just end up restarting at the same spot you just died anyway when you continue. Alot of games seem to have taken this approach with the steadily available save systems they've been implementing. The 1ups may more of an actual tradition than an intended gameplay mechanic to boost difficulty. I think they might have actually taken the right approach to the issue by reducing Mario's HP to just 3, a great improvement from 64 where you could magically restore health by jumping into water.
The difficulty on the other hand can be on and off. Take the Manta Ray courses for example. I'll let you experience that one on your own. The vast majority of the stars are still fun so no complaints there.

It is fun, not sure if you got to the Luigi haunted mansion level, but the mini boss fight there in the third part of that galaxy caught me off guard. I had your same feelings going through the game at a relatively fast pace, but that boss took me a few lives to get right. Not an overly tough fight, but it definately keeps you on your toes. I honestly can't wait to see what else is in store for me. And 1ups, while seemengly abundant doesn't mean much when you turn the game off and start at 4 lives again.
The later levels are way better than the first IMO. It gets pretty challenging toward the end. I've got 98 stars and I think the last 20 are going to be pretty tough.
Awesome, awesome game. Not as revolutionary as SM64, but that was the first 3D game, so obviously it is revolutionary. Overall I think this game might be better than 64, but it's really, really close. And as good as this game was expected to be, I never thought I would say that.

Thank god. You need more posts.
Star Mario sounds like fun, suprisingly I didnt even know he was in the game. And remember how many 1ups there were in Mario64? There were like, 5 on each Bowser level.
