Quantcast



I some how let slip these how to videos right past me when I threw up the prologue video yesterday. At least one of my questions from the prologue has been answered by this video called Spin -- You will be able to go on the Warships.

One thing you'll also notice is that Nintendo is demonstrating the controls with the Wii Jacket on the Wiimotes. I knew this was going to eventually happen, but not this soon. Anyway, hit the jump to see the jump controls, jump variations, running, bee suit, and ghost suit.

Jump control: Jump variations: Running: Bee Suit: Phantom Mario: (You just have to love how the enemy Ghosts are in love with Mario).
Everyone on the team that has played the game have said that the controls are great. All I know is that it's going to be great to play a Mario game again. Mario Sunshine was such an abomination in the series. Also, the official Japanese site for Mario Galaxy has opened up.

Abomination may be a little harsh . . . no, nevermind. You're right. I was just too chicken to say it.

Is that it?

No, really. You can flick in any direction to spin? That's a lot of wasted real estate.

Also, Mario kicks things automatically? Does that mean you can't grab things like you could in Mario 3?

I was surprised at the Wii Jackets too, it was the first thing that caught my eye (not that flicking the wiimote looks intriguing). Anyone else think it's looking more and more like a sextoy now? I mean, it was bad enough seeing a hand hold a wiimote and doing twisting motions WITHOUT the rubber/latex covering...

Sunshine wasn't that bad.
I'm torn for this title. I really don't like the space theme, it just doesn't seem to work..i'm used to jumping into paintings.
But oh well, i'll end up getting it.

Abomination is definitely too harsh. But you're right, I think Galaxy is going to be wicked awesome, and bring back that true Mario feel. As excited as I am for the other big November games (Mass Effect, Assassin's Creed, etc.), this is going to take precedence for me.

Man, why all the Mario Sunshine hate? It was still a blast to play. And come on, how can a game with an a cappella version of the Mario theme be an "abomination." It's at the very least a "missed opportunity."

Oh, and these videos look awesome.

The stupid water pack killed the game for me. That doesn't mean that I didn't enjoy the a cappella version of the theme though, :D

Every time I see the Wii light up blue I prepare to let out a "meh."

I'm just wondering whether or not Nintendo will start packaging the jacket with new wiimotes.

I still loved Mario Sunshine. A lot. If that's a bad game, it's still miles better than most other platformers of that generation. Having said that, this looks incredible. I can't wait!

I like how the video titled "Jump Control" could have been replaced with the words, "You press A to jump."
