Don't read if you didn't finish the game!

This Galaxy Map, in front of Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, Moon and Earth...they look just great, right? Thats where I have a question..is this a 360 Movie in Background, cause it looks just to detailed and there is so much going on for the Wii...or is this all real time?

There is no movie it looks that detailed because a few planets and a bunch of stars is a lot less work for a gpu to render then the usual huge open 3d structures/landscapes throughout the game. But i do agree it looks awesome though :).

wow, impressive, I mean no landscape, but a lot of asteroids with different movements, if you compare this to the
inside of the Bionis, around the heart
which isn't an open landscape too,
the galaxy maps
looks million times more impressive. Its really a shame than we didn't get a Star Fox for Wii :)

Animating asteroids isnt gpu heavy. The droids probably only contain like 6 pixels each as well. Hell, if you go with 2D cheating you could bring them down to 3-4.
You'd be amazed what you can achive with low-poly modelling :)
And the actual background is probably a tiled 2D image
