Super Mario Galaxy (Wii)

Bound to be one of the biggest games upon release, this new Super Mario game looks great. The three dimensional worlds look amazing, bound to be the best non-classic mario game to date.

If you haven't heard about it, here is the description from Nintendo:

Quote:

The ultimate Nintendo hero is taking the ultimate step... out into space. Join Mario as he ushers in a new era of video games, defying gravity across all the planets in the galaxy. Mario takes advantage of all the unique aspects of the Wii Remote and Nunchuk controller, unleashing new moves as players shake the controller and even point at and drag items with the pointer. Players perform mind-bending, low-gravity jumps across wild alien terrain as they experience platforming for a new generation.

And a good video showing off some gameplay:

It looks pretty good, reminds me a lot of Mario 64, with the exception to the worlds of course. The thing with the video is we really can't see all that is going on. It all looks like the average jumping and attacking abilities that see in all Mario games, but with Wii remote, I'm sure there is a lot going on with the gamer as the overview stated.

I don't know about being the best non-classic Mario to date, since Mario 64 was awesome (And not really a classic just yet in my eyes), but I'm sure it will be extremely popular at launch time for the Wii. Only time wil ltell though.

I think I'm going to get this game. It does look quite awesome and should bring out all of the Wii's capabilities.

Yah this game is going to be great. I am going to pick this game up at launch as well as a few others. It looks like fun, and creative. And people playing the game for the first time seemed to have done pretty good with the wiimote. So it probably isnt hard to just pick up and learn right away.

Yeah i am definatly getting this game along with that shooter one. i really have no clue what it is called, but i know you use a gun in the game (yeah i know that really narrows it down). But this looks like it will be great use for the new controller. i just hope it works as good as it looks like it does. im still a little nervous about how good it will really work.
