    Zubin's Super Mario Galaxy (Wii)

    [February 21, 2008 12:38:51 AM]
    SUMMARY:
    - Mario Galaxy is a one-person game in which the user utilizes the Wii remote controller and its nunchuck addition in order to navigate Mario through a three dimensional galaxy gathering stars to progress through different worlds and ultimately free the Toad Princess.

    GAMEPLAY
    Going into this gaming experience, I did not know exactly what to expect of this game. I had heard that this game was basically like Mario World for the Nintendo 64, but with an interesting twist. That twist, is one of the most exciting features of this new game. What sets this Mario game apart from others is the unique Wii remotes interactive ability. The game however, is a lot like the Mario World in terms of game rule. The level progression is very similar to the N64’s version in that you run through the same level a couple of times, each time being a different challenge in order to obtain a star. After a certain amount of stars are collected from a level, a new level is unlocked.
    The game from what I have experienced is pretty fun to play. The new aspect of this game is that you are playing in a virtual galaxy, which enables for some interesting new level concepts which have not really been explored yet. For example, jumping into a portal takes you to a room in which there seems to be a distorted gravity field. You enter the room and start running on the floor perpendicular to the ground you think you are supposed to run on, and the controlling of the game is relative to your position among a given surface. That aspect certainly gives the game more room within the game world to explore and manipulate.
    The character development on this game leaves a little to be desired. So far from what I have experienced, you don’t really get to know the characters all too well. You learn that the floating stars enjoy it when you shoot stars and we also learn that the Princess has been stolen and is relying on Mario to release her from the throws of evil. Nintendo at this point assumes you know Mario and what his deal is. Even my father knows who Mario is and that he is a plumber, if you knew my father you’d understand how unbelievable that is because he cant even turn on/off a console. The story of the game progresses as you receive more stars. Being that I have only played for a short while, all I have been hearing is that I need stars in order to get closer to the Princess.
