Well we are only two days away from the release of Super Mario Galaxy 2 (well, those of us in the US at least) so this thread shall be for discussion of anything related to SMG2. When the game does come out and you want to say something that may spoil it for others, make sure you put it in a spoiler tag.

I got mine pre-ordered and I shall be picking it up from GameStop on Sunday morning at 9 AM (just like what I did for HeartGold, only hopefully it won't be as windy).

I'll either have to wait until mid-summer or christmas before I get this game. 3':

Right now I'm watching this walkthrough of it.

My mom pre-ordered it as a birthday present for me (today is my birthday), but it is from Wal-Mart, and it is being delivered to our house. I might have to wait until the 25th or something.

I told my mom, but she already did it. D:

It will still be fun, though.

In the video Mag was watching, Peach says in her letter, "Would you like to come share some cake while we watch the shooting stars?". So now there is cake in Nintendo? Also so now there is only 3 files?
I really want to get this game, but I don't know when. I might get it this summer though.

Well Yoshi... I did the same as you and pre-ordered it at GameStop. I will be picking mines up from there a hour later than you though.

I just watched that video that Mag posted. Two comments.

1. So... Bowser kidnapped Peach for cake?

2. The guy playing sucks.

Personally, I don't blame Bowsers motive.

I can't wait

That game looks REALLY nice. I am certainly going to bug my dad to get it like, at 7 in the morning. I DON'T WANNA GO THROUGH ALL THAT **** IN THE BEGINNING! It's annoying.

Well. The new star music is epic.
I really want to get OVAR 9000 stars by the end of the game.

GT gave it 9.7 out of 10.

Wow. Must be good

GALAXY 2 GET!!

And now for a little story. GameStop said they would be open at 9:00 AM on Sunday morning for the game. I leave my house about 9:00 and I see the store at 9:05, but the parking lot was empty. I drive up to the store and it was shut, THE STORE WAS STILL CLOSED, THE OPENING WAS A LIE!!! So I went to the WalMart within the same shopping center and they had SMG2 piled up to the ceiling. I said screw it and I got it there. While there at the beginning of the electronics section they had a table with a bunch of stuff on sale. They had 2-paks of PS2 memory cards (official) for a mere $3 so I got 3 paks (so I got 6 cards) and they had a bunch of strategy guides on sale for 50 cents. While it was manly for Xbox games, they had the Official Pokemon Diamond/Pearl Pokedex (Volume 2) and the Official Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Time/Darkness. They had about 10 of the Pokedexes (I got 4) and 3 of the Mystery Dungeon ones (I got 2). So in the end I am actually glad GameStop was closed. Sure they are probably going to charge me $5 for not picking up the game, but **** them. They lost the money that I would have given them for the game and they can forget about me pre-ordering anything from them in the future.

There's still another 19 days until it's UK release...

Maybe I'll import it and run it through Gecko...

Got it a few hours ago. So far it's amazing.

Right now on Gamerankings it's just below the original, with a 97.21% average score. IGN and Gamespot gave it perfect 10s.

Wait, IGN gave it a 10? o.o

Is it possible to get the

Garbage Dump with the boxes and the fire flower and the TROGDOR BURNINATION

Well I`m on Star 38 right now. And yes Vel, I beat the boxes thing on my first try

I've already figured out the ending.

  

    Spoiler Alert:    
    
  

  

  
He defeats bowser

Guess I'll post where I currently am in THE GAME. I'm in World 6, drawing close to the final battle with Bowser, with 66 stars (OMA 666), with 1062 coins and 30 of the Prankster Comet Coins.

I must say, this is definitely a great game. My only gripe is that very few galaxies actually have Yoshi in it.

Mario Galaxy 2 is amazingly good!! I love the scenery and gameplay.

Nah you all got it wrong here's what he does

  

    Spoiler Alert:    
    
  

  

  
He defeats Bowser and saves Peach

The epicness just blew me away on that one.

Well I rid the Galaxy of Bowser and rescued Peach. I like how during the ending credits you can play as Mario and collect Star Bits/Coins (didn't notice if they add to your total though). I am now at 76 stars with 34 of the Comet Coins.

And for something regarding the ending.

Rosalina appears, but she seems to act like she never met Mario before. The story for this game seems to be an alternate to what happened in Galaxy 1, instead of events that would have happened afterword. Also near the end of the ending credits THERE IS CAKE (and there are berries on it that Yoshi can eat). Also in the S world (which you get after you see the ending) there is a Galaxy of a Mario sprite. For the love of Arceus I hope the prankster comet isn't Luigi's Purple Coins.

What is the name of the level that is like the original super mario bros but you're really small.

*Is still waiting almost slightly patiently for European release*

Yeah, I just tried it today and got smashed

itssohard

The worst galaxy is the Stone Cyclone Galaxy, wow is that difficult. Somehow it was almost easier in time mode because you could take a shorter path and you didn't stop as much.

I have 241 stars now. WIN FOR ME.
