Mario Galaxy

oh my god the trial galaxies are NUTS

The water one took me like 20+ tries. Luckily, you get a billion extra lives on that level.

Almost up to 240 stars. Can't wait til I can go back to the other games I was working on before this came out. >.<

Is that the green luma galaxies? I had a little trouble with the water one, but the roller ball one took about 50 tries. I wanted to throw my wiimote across the room.

Yeah, the green luma galaxy. I'm not sure what it was, I just couldn't get used to tilting the wiimore to steer, yet I beat the roller ball one pretty easily... That water one was easily the hardest stage for me out of all of them. x.x

Manta Ray surfing leaves me screaming with rage.

Not sure if you tried this, but slowing down on the turns is what saved me (let go of the A button). I got it pretty soon after that, it was still hard but doable then. It might sound obvious but I almost never need to slow down on racing games ect ect.[/quote:293pjjpy]
Yeah, I started taking it slow after by second death (out of like... 30). My runs generally went like this:

Me: Ok, taking it slow, I'm almost there, got through the loop...
*Manta bounces off a wave, flies off the edge*
Me: FUUUUUUUUUCK.

I can't tell you how many times those damn waves screwed me over.

If you move the wii remote up, you jump and that helps me with the waves.

Oh I didn't notice this thread! I got mine on Thursday, I am at 31 stars so far and the game keeps getting better and better!

FUCK YEAH! Skating is win! I love that race in the ice/fire world and the third star on it as well. I love this game. YOU ARE THE BEST GAY EVER!

[Daydreamer]

So, why are people having trouble with the manta race on the trial galaxy? I beat it on my second try...it was a joke.

The only thing you have to do is not mash the A button constantly.

[Demosthenes]

I held A down the whole time and got it on my third try.

Dear Mailtoad,

Stop fucking emailing me to come find Luigi as soon as I turn off my Wii.

Love you

Is the secret level worth beating it again with Luigi? I almost have 120 with Mario and don't want to play through again for a level just like the rest. Can anyone rate this hidden level for me? Thank you.

[izembo]

played for a few hours today, only fun thing was the manta racing, everything else was boring =/

Not really, it's just a level you walk through and grab 100 purple coins that are all on the main path. No enemies, no possible way you can die.

Spoilers: It's the level you started on with Mario, the city type place with a path to Peach's Castle. It has all the characters on the game on the path celebrating. That's about it.

you're completely backwards from like everyone I talk to lol. They all hate the manta racing and love everything else. To each his own I guess ;x

The secret level is just the Star Festival with 100 purple coins.

went from 45 to 51 stars tonight. got my first green star (the one in the desert galaxy) gonna try to get the other 2, from the sounds of things they unlock another set of "bonus" galaxies? I know one is in buoy base galaxy, I gotta find the other one I guess.

the bee suit stuff was just kinda bleh, wasn't really that entertaining. was a nice new concept but i just didnt feel like it was that great. definitely think that 64 was a better game.

[Milks]

Walmart pricematched my Circuit City ad. I got it today for $35 :D

[Ikith]

Having huge problems with the Dare devil version of bouldergiest so I moved on and I have 55 stars... I plan to get most of the ones you can get before you beat the game before I beat it It'll make it a lot easier to nab those others after I beat it.

I dunno, I liked the bee suit. it's just like the frog and raccoon suits of old. strange, but interesting new concept. though my favorite is the good ole fireball. like how it works in this game, way to bring it back.

oh yeah up to 55 stars now. did the daredevil comet bouldergeist, and some other ones. need more time to play, and more weed to smoke with it

[Ikith]

Yay I finally got the bouldergiest daredevil done... Now on to the rest of the desert stars then what I can do in the trial galaxy... And then further yay!
