Video Game Reviews of Super Mario Galaxy
Customer Review: Super Mario rides again
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this game! It isn't too difficult although my six year old niece had trouble with it. This one was just as much fun as the one for the 64 but it was easier for me. I got all but 5 of the 120 stars to collect in the game. The hardest parts for me were controlling the manta ray when you are ray-surfing. I kept falling off the water and controlling the ball Mario stands on was a bit difficult for me but both I think are due to the fact that I don't have a steady hand.
Mario transforms into a bee which is too cute, Boo (the lovable ghost), and a spring. I don't recall if there were any other transformations and seeing as I rented this game to decide whether or not to buy it I can't check. But I love the fact that they brought back the Fire Flower from Mario's 80's hayday. Another addition is the Ice Flower which allows you to freeze water while walking on it as well as other water sources. You still collect coins but also collect Star Bits which allow you to feed Hungry Lumas which in turn transform into other things such as new planets and if you get 50 you earn an extra life. They also put a bit of the old music from the very first Mario game into this one which gives it a nostalgic feel. One thing I would've been absolutely thrilled with is if they had put a mushroom in that transformed Mario into the Raccoon from Super Mario Bros. 3. I loved the Raccoon Suit from that game. All in all, I would definitely buy this game. It isn't one of the cheapest games available for the Wii but considering I've spent upwards of $[...] on games for my N64 $[...] isn't that bad.
Customer Review: Deserves the accolades!
Summary: 5 Stars
SMG merits the high rating it has received from other reviewers. The game is proof that software written for the Wii employs all of the advantages of the platform. Games ported to Wii lack the utility of Wii based sw and often suffer from clunkiness compared to the experience on the primary system. The bottom line is that this game is a winner for the Wii!Customer Review: Galaxy is entertaining for one or two players
Summary: 4 Stars
My family is enjoying Super Mario Galaxy. The graphics are terrific. Sometimes I feel like I am standing on my head! I like the way the remote and the nunchuck make the character maneuver around the board. I wish you could save your game a little more frequently. Sometimes I have to leave the game before I have reached another level, but the more familiar I get with the game, the better it goes. I would recommend this game for variety and fun!Customer Review: Challenging, but still very,very,very,fun!

Super Mario Galaxy is fun,fun,fun!Not as challenging if you've beaten other Mario games, but even if you have'nt, the first parts aren't very hard. I play it for hours!Customer Review: Not impressive in any way.
Summary: 2 Stars
I really don't understand the appeal of this game. There is nothing impressive or original in this game. The control is terrible. You'll waste a lot of time falling off of the edges of the planets into outer space and starting all the way over. The graphics are fine for the Wii but the Wii is really just a gamecube. You spend most of your time running around and jumping on beetles or shooting stars into marshmellow aliens mouths. I'm pretty much the only person I know that doesn't like this game so you'll probably love it but I just had to say something.
