Great to know, as I love the grip of the wiimote+nunchuck combo and been itcing to try out my new M&L wiimotes. Plus I think its octagon-gate will work better with the game.

Are you guys in this thread here to troll the Wii U? Seriously you are waiting for a game to get you excited about getting a Wii U. Still?

Well I'm at the end of the third world and although it isn't exactly a hard game, I have died quite a bit while collecting all of the green stars. Maybe it's easy for someone who's absolutely phenomenal at platformers, but it isn't a total pushover. Plus, it can only get more challenging from here, right?

Not true at all. The gameplay is simply superb. The game continues to throw new ideas at you in every single level until the very end of the game, and not one of the stages feels rushed or unpolished at all.
There is a lot of nostalgia, yes, but there is SO much new stuff as well that it doesn't feel like the game relies on it.
Also, the game is definitely pretty tough as far as Mario games go. I'd say it's probably about the same, maybe a little easier, than Galaxy 2. One thing I really liked, though, is that the game doesn't throw 1ups at you all the time like most recent Mario games. It compels you to actually try to collect coins.

I know this gets thrown around way too much but some if the screenshots you guys are posting mame me say for the first time, this looks like a Pixar movie. Does it loom as good in motion?

Looks even better in motion. A few levels literally had my jaw dropped.

late game streams http://www.twitch.tv/sixfortyfive
plenty people streaming in 60fps
I think it looks better on my TV but still I was thinking Pixar for a while to be honest
It seems like a smoother version of what NiGHTS initially had in the HD release. Difference being that NiGHTS was a game built around full 360 degree control, while SM3DW obviously wasn't.
It should look much better in motion because it runs at 60fps.
Guys I can't stop checking this thread, reading all the love about the game and seeing those beautiful screenshots that you post is addicting!

Ok so I got l home yesterday and played the first two levels. Then I got a call, went out with my friends, and now I'm home debating whether it not to continue or get a good nights rest and continue tomorrow. In still pretty drunk which may make the experience better or worse, I'm not sure.
The first two levels were fucking amazing btw, this game is going to be some god damn magic on a stick.

How about post-final boss content? Anyone mind spoil me?
3 worlds plus one bonus for 100%ing lots of surprises
I started Galaxy 2 earlier this week and the cutscenes and talking were the worst part for me, the game just won't shut up
. (And then there's the coin/starbit collecting. And level selection process. And power ups as mandatory items. And minor stars ending levels forcing you to repeat the level for the regular star. And probably other stuff.)I've had a few deaths from the timer too. I remember everyone thinking the levels would be short enough that the timer would be ample, apparently not if you're scouring the level for anything and everything!
I was talking to a friend about the game and described the levels were "deceptively large." It's a nice balance, I like it better than any of the other 3D Marios. There's usually enough there to spend a bunch of time in a level, but you can also blast through it if you want to. And every level is different vs reusing chunks of a level multiple times for different stars.
I couldn't get used to it cause the run button. I mean it was fine for running (i.e. just hold it down) but it's also used for the usual power up stuff and also the roll move. It's the repeated pressing and timing that felt awkward. Of course I have like 20+ years of Mario muscle memory to deal with there so ymmv.
same, and im 32 years old, reviews saying "solo is the way to play" are lonely people,
this game shits all over xbox and ps4 launch titles.

I'm absolutely loving this game, it's totally amazing, but I think Nintendo has hammered out so many Mario games of late that... I dunno, I kind of feel like if I didn't play 3D Land and NSMB2 and NSMBU that I would like it even more. I'm not saying that it's a carbon copy of those, because it isn't, but regardless there's an air of familiarity and this pervading sense of "I just got through doing this."
Then again, if Nintendo had made Mario Galaxy 3, I'm sure I would have felt the same way. Again nothing to do with the quality of the game or my enjoyment, it's astounding in so many ways and a huge treat to play, but I just think there have been too many fucking Mario games so close together. In this case I feel like there's actually been too much of a good thing.
BUT, I'm still early in the game and to be fair I was in a bad mood yesterday because of dreading a long shift at work, so maybe I'll warm up to it even more later today.

Is there a trick to getting cleaner screenshots like I think some people posted? I disabled Miiverse and was uploading directly through the web browser, which produces this:
I'm curious if the Miiverse method is cleaner, or if they're identical.
You don't have to disable Miiverse.
Miiverse screens are at the Gamepad's resolution, so they come out smaller.

was that a small store? sound strange
Fuck it, remembered I had like 20 bucks in eshop credit from the deluxe digital and bought this. A bunch of people are here for the weekend so I want to try out the multiplayer...so I can use my old classic controller pro? Looks like nobody will be stuck with just a wiimote then.
And oh man the 5 bucks I get back from this is going right into the ace attorney dlc.

Been watching a stream for like 3 hours now. The game looks amazing. Probably not Galaxy amazing, but its still looking really good.
? I don't know about trees but you could climb poles in the Galaxy games and hop off them just like this. The long jump has been in all 3D Marios and I don't know what the side-jump is supposed to be.
I should drop by Best Buy today and see if they sold any Wii Us. When I went to pick up my copy of 3D World yesterday morning for the Xbone early opening, they had numerous Skylanders, NSMBU, and even some Wind Waker bundles piled high spread across several stacks. Let's see if those piles have shrunk at all...
I finished the first world. Mario games are always nearly too hard for me, it would seem. I got a game over since I kept repeatedly dying due to diving in a gap between two ledges. I must have no depth perception.
Then later I had the leaf of shame block appear, I think on the first castle level.

Sunshine didn't have the long jump, but didn't really need it due to the FLUDD.

that would be great anecdotal evidence to know about. looking forward to it.

I had a block of shame appear twice in the first world
I forget where it happened the first time, but the second was in the castle; it was mainly because I kept cat diving off the edge of the stage, lol.

Do you need all goldflagpoles or is it just green Stars?SixfortyfGold 90979076 said:
I wish you luck with all 4 characters.
depth perception is killing me so many times since I'm playing with my brother and the screen keeps stretching out, at this point to get past a level I have to use the gamepad screen to see properly for platforming correctly =/
still enjoying the game even if multiplayer is making it one of the hardest marios I've played since everyone shares the same lives >.< ( my brother sucks, keeps dying wasting 1-ups)

I have 100% world 1 and am almost done with world 2. I find this game much, much easier than NSMBU. I've died twice so far here.
I'm using the gamepad now. I find the analog stick to be slightly better for controls. I had a bit of trouble being accurate with just the d-pad. My daughter had some trouble also. I'll have her try the nunchuck next time.
Also, I feel like a dumbass. I thought the crowns on the flags were caused by finishing the stage while wearing the crown in multiplayer. Then I noticed I had some crown flags in my single player game. It's just the princess' flag!
