Super Mario Galaxy 2 announced for Wii

[elixirdream]

This was also part of our guess on IRC
since they have the engine might as well make a sequel

once again looks like my wii will be busy

Even more awesome news. It seems Nintendo did indeed redeem themselves this year.
This is new for Nintendo, a direct sequel for a Mario game. Super Mario Galaxy must have been a huge hit.
I dearly hope there will be better co-op this time around since I don't think that my little bro (who will be a teenager when this comes out) will want to be my star bits slave anymore.

Galaxy 2..... with Yoshi added.... Thisis going to be great! Off to buy Galaxy 1~

 

[Overlord Nadrian]

Yeah! Nintendo's announced some great games this time! I'm definitely going to buy this!

 

[shakirmoledina]

they decided to put a sequel here since they got to keep it amazing comapring to the last yr besides everyone wanted yoshi as an additional char

 

[Overlord Nadrian]

There's prolly gonna be a third one too, like in the original Super Mario Bros. series.

Humm, I'm not sure if this is a good thing. SMG was damn near perfect - it was easily the greatest platformer of all times, and quite likely the swan song for the genre. having exhausted their ideas in the first game, I don't think Nintendo should be making a sequel. There's no way it's ever going to be as good as the first, so it's just going to sully the whole line.

Some things are better left untouched.

same here, i agree 100%, i think nintendo are running out of ideas as they have to reuse the same ideas from the last game, maybe miyamoto is loosing his touch, i was also disappointed because when i heard they were working on a new mario game i thorght it would be something COMPLETLY new not a sequel, i'm also not happy with the new super mario bros Wii either, i want to just play as mario not 4 other people in 1 level, it's like i am playing super smash bros all over again.

I had the exact same feelings and thoughts after seeing the trailer for the first time. But after seeing it again I noticed so many new ideas and differences in some aspects that I changed my mind... Looks really good!

I think ill have to get that game. I thought the first one was really kool. It just had this feel to it....

 

[Hadrian]

This game was originally meant to be a remix, sort of like a special edition (like the Metal Gear games have) so at least they changed their minds and decided to create more levels and implement ideas that they didn't have time to perfect with MG1.

I don't think Miyamoto is involved that much with this game, which is a shame.

 

[Trolly]

Miyamoto went on to say that the developers of Galaxy 2 had so many ideas that about 90% of the levels in the game are original. The other ten percent are levels from the first game, but with new objectives.

Just found this, and I though post it in here. Interesting that 10% are recycled with new objectives. Hopefully they'll be more memorable levels with new enough objectives to keep it in interesting.

 

[DsHacker14]

Awesome! I cant wait... and the new addition with yoshi is going to make the game alot better.

 

[disgaea fan]

love all of the mario game (include this one

) maybe i should buy a wii instead of playing it at my friend house.

 

[Trulen]

I do have a request for Miyamoto.

Keep the storyline short, or nonexistent.

Focus on the blasted levels >:U

We know the Mario schmeal by now.

 

[UnFallen]

I cant wait for this to come out!!!
iM sO sTOKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Nerdii]

I can't believe I just noticed this!!
SMG is awesome!
