New Super Mario Galaxy 2 Trailer
Posted by Anthony Dickens
Hot on the heels of the new Metroid: Other M trailer comes a new one for our good friend Mario
We've already seen quite a lot of footage from Super Mario Galaxy 2, however it always leaves us wanting more. Nintendo has published this new trailer with even deeper glimpses into the game that promises to be even better than the original.
Here's the trailer:

As I said in the topic, I'm glad that there is at least some sort of hub even if it's not as good as any of the others and I like the new power-up.

Aviator said:
Yes. This looks awesome. The flags seem a cool way to notify of checkpoints.

This trailer actually put me off the game a little bit because a lot of what they showed looked a bit "off" and lacking polish and quality design imo, like the new map screen (although I'm happy it's mainly a map screen and not a hub personally) and Mario head for a ship (WTF that just looks cheap and stupid imo), and some of the planets look a bit rough too, like the one that has paintbrushes sticking out of it that looks a bit cheap and like a bunch of random 3D objects just stuck together to create a half artichoke'd area.
I'm sure the game will easily be as good as the first one and most likely better in many ways too but just like NSMBWii it just doesn't look as all round well developed and polished as some of the very best Mario games imo, like they are not paying enough attention to some of the little details that really matter to a gamer like me.

Rock Mario? Yellow Yoshi? But I must ask one question: WHY ARE THE BALL-ROLLING LEVELS BACK?!?

I like that Yoshi is, seemingly, playing a larger role in this game.
I loves me some Yoshi.

Holy frack that looks beyond awesomely, epically, rip-roaringly brilliant!

I'm not as disappointed by the world map's instead of hub after seeing this.

Croz said:
Looks like they've fixed the world hud, although i hope they include a list of levels, like the pause menu on super mario world for the GBA.

bro2dragons said:
i'm still a little disappointed by the linear map.... but this still looks like it could be better than the first, making it the best 3D mario yet. nothing wrong with that.

Doesn't it look like this Super Mario 64 series and the Super Mario Bros. series are now part of the same series?
#20
Maxsh said:
@lex0plex: Well, if you look in the Game Summary...
"Series:
Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario Bros."
So yeah, looks like it.

The first one was great and they're IMPROVING it! Usually I don't like direct sequels but galaxy was so good ill make an exception. One helping wasn't enough!

This looks amazing! Maybe this trailer isn't as good as the one they released during their media summit, but it's still fantastic!!!!!

Giggsy said:
What more really is there to say than wow?
#27
lex0plex said:
@Maxsh: Yeah didn't see that. I meant more that the 3D games are becoming more platforming and the 2D games are, well, they're like 2.5D now.
I just kinda miss the openworldness of Super Mario 64 and Sunshine

@Dragoon I LOVE THE BALL ROLLING LEVELS. A better april fool than what nintendolife did would be to announce "super mario universe". YOu know it's coming! (Hopefully an MMO given the title, but nintendo will never do that.)

Ohhhhh, every time Nintendo releases some morsel or tidbit of info on Galaxy 2, I get all giddy with joy like a little schoolgirl
So the game is officially rated now. I guess that means we can be assured that the stuff in this last trailer appears exactly as it does in the final game? Rock/boulder Mario looks awesome - dig those bowling pins, LOL!
So I guess the "Mario head" planet has replaced the comet observatory... Looks awesome, but no sign of Rosalina anywhere!
If I find out that Myamoto gave Rosalina the axe, I gonna be flying to Japan to open up a can of Whup-***!
