    Even after all these years Mario has still got it. Mario. His name is synonymous with gaming. From five year olds to fifty year olds, if you mention Super Mario... Read more

    My first thought after playing Super Mario Galaxy 2 for the first few hours was that Nintendo was kind of being a jerk about the whole thing. Read more

    Sometimes I wonder how Mario keeps his ego in check. He's arguably the world's most famous mascot, has starred in over 200 games over the years, and regularly saves a beautiful princess from hordes of angry turtles, moles,... Read more

    • Platforming formula is still gold, Excellent Wii visuals, Entrancing soundtrack, A whole lotta stars to collect, Yoshi!

    Super Mario Galaxy 2 is the culmination of over 20 years of Mario gaming into one fantastically-designed and creative platformer. It's also one of 2010's absolutely best games. Read more

    • Level designer creativity in full bloom, Yoshi works great in 3D, Most New Power-Ups Are Winners
    • Controls get tricky messing with multiple dimensions, Boo Suit Not Fun

    My son loves the game. The graphics are amazing- so good they make me dizzy just watching it. It is a departure from the original because the game is not linear. You can go from one world to another anytime. Read more or see product
