- pinsomniac, on 10/12/2007, -3/+62If you thought that looked good, watch it at high-res from IGN: http://media.revolution.ign.com/media/748/748588/vid_1505107.html
- kaniz, on 10/12/2007, -6/+46I'll take "looks mother ***** fun" over being "next-gen" any day. Too many games waste too much time trying to be next-gen and ground breaking with higher poly counts and better graphics, and seem to miss the most important element of games: They should be fun!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -9/+481. Great Graphics!
2. Even better gameplay
3. LOOKS AWESOME!!
Nintendo, I love you! - Blast_dan, on 10/12/2007, -3/+34No the graphics are not as impressive as xbox 360 or playstaton 3
No it cant display hi res graphics
but since when is graphics the only thing that declares a console "next-gen". they have reinvented the way games are played and thats what being "next-gen" should be about. - zukeft, on 10/12/2007, -8/+37Just download the FLV from here: http://c.revolutionmovies.ign.com/revolution/video/article/707/707967/mariogalaxy_051106_flvhighwide.flv
Then use the FLV player: http://www.martijndevisser.com/blog/article/flv-player-133-released - pbaehr, on 10/12/2007, -3/+31Can you name a boss in a Mario game that wasn't easy? The bosses aren't the focus of the Mario games. The focus is GETTING TO the boss.
- DanteDefiance, on 10/12/2007, -5/+32I created a digg account just so I could say...I'm getting a Wii. Go Nintendo!
- lane.montgomery, on 10/12/2007, -2/+26Probably not as pissed as if you were to buy a PS3!
- wedgea18, on 10/12/2007, -3/+25Um yeah... that was like WAY cooler than any mario boss battle I've ever seen... and that's prolly one of the easier bosses in the game!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+21That was honestly the most incredible game Ive seen. I was riveted just by looking at the video in typical Youtube resolution. Can you imagine what this is going to look like on a big screen with surround sound?
I haven't been into video games since the original NES, but I may just pre-order if this is a sample of the quality. - Dietrich, on 10/12/2007, -6/+23That's it. I'm getting a Wii, and then I'm going to play with my Wii every day.
- idesign562, on 10/12/2007, -4/+20Dear Nintendo, why didnt you tell me to buy some stock from you?
Also, I am going to buy almost everything when the console comes out. If you wish to through me some freebies, so be it. I will still spend a lot of money on your products.
Thank you for making gameplay soooo much better. - Wabem, on 10/12/2007, -11/+27Hmmm, too bad YOU suck monkey nuts.
- djork, on 10/12/2007, -3/+18It is pre-release. The game may not even make launch. It's also running on dev kit hardware (as all of the show floor games are). The lit-up Wii boxes are just props with the real hardware underneath.
- KicktheDonkey, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16If your wife's anything like mine, she'll probably love playing the game...
- pbaehr, on 10/12/2007, -8/+22This game looks like it's going to be tremendous fun. I can't stand the wait!!!
- Aflat, on 10/12/2007, -1/+14No need to get the FLV player, VLC can play FLV files with no issues.
- lovethosehops, on 10/12/2007, -3/+15Im the mean time we have New Super Mario Bros. on the DS next week. I am sure it will hold us over for a while.
- DoctorShim, on 10/12/2007, -5/+16Maybe they should sell a pair of diapers with every Wii? I've got the get Nintendo marketing on this...
- TuffGhost, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12Bowser would pwn that giant space robot.
- idesign562, on 10/12/2007, -3/+14It does look easy, well, it would have taken me a bit to figure some of the stuff out, but at least i know what to do when i get to that battle.
- Buelldozer, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11!I am soooo looking forward to playing this game with my five year old son! Man, I haven't been this hyped about a new system since the SNES.
I mean seriously, remember when NES was new and you could be content just sitting and watching someone *else* play so you could soak in the experience? That's the feeling I got watching this video. I could have happily watched the player go through the whole game.
Freaking sweet. - maino82, on 10/12/2007, -3/+12@KickTheDonkey: My fiancee is the same way. She's more excited about the Wii than I am because it means she gets to play new games but also have all the classic games we grew up with on the virtual console. I may have to fight her for play time on my own damn system!
- jholdaway, on 10/12/2007, -3/+12Aaaahhh, I so needed my mario Galaxy fix today.
- Orbis, on 10/12/2007, -2/+11I don't get the hype surrounding this game. It's crap compared to Sony's recently announced Urban Grunge Galaxy which has better graphics and physics, and you even have the choice of buying only the first level for $100, or the whole game for $150.
- TubaFrog, on 10/12/2007, -2/+11Good point--Needs more screaming death noises to make it "mature." Maybe an emo soundtrack would've satisfied Mattyice11.
- FatMagic, on 10/12/2007, -6/+14Mario is king! Wow! It just looks amazing! Nintendo does it again!
- wedgea18, on 10/12/2007, -6/+14Why was mongrel modded down? He only said that he didn't think it looked "next-gen" to him. I don't agree because I think there is much more to "next-gen" than graphics. You can run PS3 demos all day but it still looks like the same old games with better graphics to me. Many of the Wii titles, however, play like NOTHING else on the market... that is Next-Gen to me.
Regardless, you shouldn't mod someone down for being honest... - handshakedrugs, on 10/12/2007, -5/+12I want to leave a worthwhile comment, but all can think of is "Wow".
- PlaidPhantom, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Wonderswan? ;)
- LandStander, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8I can't wait for this game but it looks a little too easy. I didn't quite like the arrows telling you where to go to get to the top. One of the coolest parts about the Shadows of the Colossus boss battles was wondering if this is the way to go or if your just wasting your time and trying to figure out how to kill each colossi. Of course this could possibly be so easy cause it might be a boss pretty early in the game.
- tidu, on 10/12/2007, -4/+11"but since when is graphics the only thing that declares a console "next-gen"."
Exactly... Wii is like 3 generations ahead. - jamesey, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9you mean R&C was just Mario 64 with big enemies.
- nOOBert, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8That was pretty bad ass. Defently different. My wife is going to be pissed because i iwll proabaly buy one of the Wii
- MrLunar, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8No, Waybern, it's 'Nutts'.
- SkippyDoorknob, on 10/12/2007, -4/+9They're demons? Oh my god!! run away!!! Nintendo is evil!!! Don't touch the Wii!!!
- fluffebunnie, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Well let's see... The second worthwhile amazing Mario game was Super Mario Bros. 3 and the third worthwhile amazing Mario game was Super Mario World for the SNES.
- PlaidPhantom, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Ironically, that may be the best play on the name yet. Well, other than "Wiimote".
- antoniojvr, on 10/12/2007, -7/+12Wow. Just.... Wow.
I think I'm getting a Wii. - kalessin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5actually.. you can't buy Nintendo stock. Thankfully, it's not a publically traded company.. which is why they can still innovate and take huge risks. If they had shareholders to answer to every quarter, they'd be more like the other crap companies out there just trying to squeeze every penny from the consumer and not doing anything to really earn it.
On the bright side of the investment coin, the comapany that's making the gyroscopic device (actual name 3-axis iMEMS accelerometer, really) for the Wii controller IS. It's a company called Analog Devices, Inc. (NYSE: ADI), currently trading at $36.03. Enjoy, make some money. - DVRDude, on 10/12/2007, -5/+10Looks awesome! But what's with the occasional slowdowns? Hopefully just pre-release bugs not yet ironed out... Wii!
- bysin, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7I'll give you a hint, it starts with a 'W'
- tizz66, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Whoopdedo. Learn to write better headlines :p
- chamel, on 10/12/2007, -4/+9Wow, I'm actually reconsidering on the Playstation 3 now.... That was very impressive, and the number of games they are announcing is incredible.... Do you want the greatest HD graphics or do you want to have the most fun.
I'm starting to lean the Nintendo direction.. - tizz66, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6As it's a preview version and people only have 15 minutes to play, I'm guessing it's not exactly the hardest boss in the game as you said. I'm sure they'll get much harder later on, I remember some of the bosses in other mario games have been tough towards the end.
Have any videos been posted showing you someone controlling it and the gameplay at the same time? I'm interested to see how the controls work with it. - ArchibaldTuttle, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5f@#ing E3 always making me want to play stuff that isn't going to come out for a year
- Miyamoto, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Great looking game. Now i just wish it was going to be on a cheap console and have good controls...
Wait it does! - Phocion55, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7.....and this sealed the deal for me buying a Wii.
