Gaming Super Mario Galaxy (actually the fourth)

[Zelgerath]

Everyone is on about Super Mario Galaxy, how it's such a great game etc. (and why not? It's true)
Some want to get 120 stars and play as Luigi, some are going for the 241 total.
But how many people have *actually* gotten to this point in the saga?
By my count, the total number of stars in the saga is 631:
120 in Super Mario 64
120 in Super Mario Sunshine (well, they are actually "shinesprites" but... well most people know what I mean)
150 in Super Mario 64 DS (people say it's a remake but there are subtle differences and 30 extra stars)
120 in Super Mario Galaxy
120 in Super Luigi Galaxy (that's the second playthrough of Galaxy)
1 as the Final Star in Galaxy
____
631 Stars in total

Now I understand that some people don't have Nintendo DS's and people can only work with what they have,
But if you're playing Super Mario Galaxy, you obviously can play GameCube Games, and I don't know one person aside from myself who has beaten Super Mario Sunshine (and I don't blame anyone for that, it's a challenging game)

But I Challenge Mario Players to Post their current number of "Total Stars" here on this forum
(like I do below)

120 SM64
120 SMS
150 SMDS
120 SMG
047 SLG
________
557 Total Stars

*Note- Super Mario 64 can be downloaded onto your wii for 10 dollars worth of points on the wii shop channel
- Super Mario Sunshine is relatively cheap now, especially if you get it preplayed at GameStop or any videogame store

I'm just curious
I won't make fun of anyone if their Total Star ammount is not impressive at all.

SM64:
Back when I had an N64, SM64 was the 2nd game I owned. So having only 2 games to play, I played the hell out of it and probably got all 120 at least 3 times before I got tired of it.

SMS:
I have it, but never got around to playing it. Just haven't heard too many good things about it to catch my interest.

SMDS:
I don't know the actual number. I got frustrated with the controls (movement) and gave up on it, three times.

SMG/SML:
I stopped playing after beating the main storyline to play other games I hadn't gotten around to yet. I do plan on going back and getting the 120 at least since I did it with SM64.

I just played galaxy once, needs to find some time to really get into it, be sure i'll get all the stars in there too eventually.

 

[Beware]

I'm not so sure I would classify SMDS as an entire new set of Stars. Maybe just add 30 more to SM64 (yes, there are differences, but enough to call it a whole new game? I don't think so).
I don't remember my star count because I haven't played through SM64 or SMS in a LONG time, but I have SM64 on my PSP and I plan on getting all 120. I just got 120 in SMG, don't plan on playing SML any time soon since I have soooo many great wii games right now that I have yet to play, and I think I had about 15 of the 30 added stars from SMDS.
I can't really give a good number right now, but I GUARANTEE I will have all 480 in the console games ASAP (I don't see myself going through that on SMDS when I can play the original whenever I want).

 

[Zelgerath]

To defend SMDS, The differences between it and Super Mario 64 are the different playable characters obviously, and the 30 extra Stars, but there were also changes in some of the actual levels,

For example; Tick-tock clock has a floor which prevents your character from falling out of the level, that effected mostly the 100 coin star (made it easier)

I would say that if you do not have a Nintendo DS, SMDS is purely optional, however I still count those 150 as part of the total because of the needed mastery of different controls.

I got 19 more stars

120 SM64

576 Total Stars

I challenge more people to post their Total StarCount aswell

 

[wovva]

Mario Sunshine did not deserve to get finished. I like to pretend that it never really happened

 

[Zelgerath]

For those who finished Sunshine, they can say they beat all the games.

I have a new total
120 SM64
120 SMSS
150 SMDS
120 SMG
120 SLG (+54 from previous post)
0 FINAL
____________________________
630 Total Stars out of 631

I only have a vauge Idea about what the final star is, I only have to beat final bowser for the fourth time to find out.

Good luck to all of those who are trying to beat all four games

I hope to post again soon after I get the last star

[shinji257]

Well I never played SM64, SMSS, vaguely played SMDS, but I do have SMG so... I have 22 or 23 of them right now. This includes 3 or 4 hidden stars.

 

[Zelgerath]

I beat Galaxy thus completing the Super Mario 3d saga, however I counted Incorrectly, for you can receive the final star both as Mario and Luigi.

632/632 Total Stars

I must say though, the Finale Star was a bit disappointing.

I was under the impression that you would have to somehow fight all the bosses at once.

Anyways, now I’m going to try to beat the Paper Mario games.

-Good luck to all of you getting Stars and ShineSprites.

 

[alucard77]

Wow you guys need to get out more. =)

When the hell do you guys find the time to do this?

 

[Twiffles]

During the cold winter months when no one goes outside because it's cold.

Total I have: 632. Hoorah.
