Mario Galaxy video . . .

That looks very cool. I hope that game play style is easy to get used to and ends up working out well.

The most important thing in that vid is the bee suit.  What Mario 64 and Mario Sunshine lacked were proper powerups, the bee suit marks the return of smb3 style powerups!

Wow, looks hard.  Any idea how the wiimote and nunchuck will be utilized for this?

[Howard_Casto]

You do almost all your controlling via the nunchuck...remember mario only needs an analog stick and two buttons.

The wiimote can be used by the second player to manipulate various objects on screen by pointing at them.  They put that in so non-traditional gamers (read your mom) can play as well.

That would be really disappointing actually if it's just your same old analog stick and 2 buttons 3D console game.

man...they need to change the story or something already. we have been saving princess peach for YEARS 

[tommy]

They should make a real looking mario (fps) game with machine guns and rocket launchers. 

 "It's a me, Mario. Now eat hot lead." 

[ChadTower]

Seriously, Peach sucks.  I'm sick of bailing her out.

[Howard_Casto]

Apparently you guys aren't in the loop.  While peach is still in this one, there is also a new princess and new enemies.  They have changed the story this time.
