...and it's made me a happy gamer again. For awhile there gaming wasn't any fun. No game stuck with me like the new Mario is doing right now. The game has really been an enjoyment to play and if you feel the same, let's all comment here. Nintendo needs to hear about it.

It is continually flipping back and forth between the highest rated game this generation and the highest rated game of all time.
 
I think Nintendo knows.

It looks refreshing and simply fun.  It's one of the only games that has made me regret selling my Wii for a 360.

" @Willy105:  Not really. It only has 37 reviews up on Metacritic, and 23 of those are perfect scores, but Uncharted 2 has far more overall reviews and it has around 39 perfect scores. I believe the game with the most perfect scores ever has been Uncharted. "

The game is a ton of fun.  There are a lot of cool levels and a fairly lengthy game if you try to 100& it.

The game is fun and pretty. About 15 stars in I found I'm burnt out on Mario. Oh well, gave it a go.

Nintendo is still a threat.

SMG2 looks awesome, but I've decided not buy it until I complete some of the games I already own.
 
Quick question to anyone who has the game. Does SMG2 contain the purple coin comets from the first game? I'm currently trying to 100% the first one, and these purple coin comets are making me want too quit.

" @Willy105: That sucks.Hopefully they made them a little less tedious. "

Tedious? What? Evil, unfair, stressful and unforgiving, yes. Tedious, no.  Never a dull moment with those stars, at least in the original. "

tbh- game reviews arent what they used to be.
 
look at the number of 10s the big sites give out now compared to the ones they gave out years ago.
 
smg2 is not a ten, the game is not perfect by any means.
 (it is damn good though, its just not perfect)

@hinderk
Out of the three purple coin levels I've come across in Galaxy 2, two of them are timed and the third one is a slide where you have to get 100 out of the 140 available coins.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 makes everyone happy !

It's a game filled with glee !

How far in are the purple coin levels? I'm at World 5 with about 43 stars right now. I have completed some of the comet stages and they're a lot of fun. I never played SMG 1  so this whole purple business is new to me.  "

Since Mario isn't your thing at the moment, what's been keeping you busy instead? Because if it can take the place of SMG2 right now, it must be ridonkulous. "

I didn't get to them until about 50-60 Stars in and I ended up doing two in a row. The first one I did was pretty simple, but the Flip-Swap Galaxy Purple Coins were a bitch to get... not quite at the level of Luigi's Purple Coins in the first game, but pretty difficult nevertheless. "

I have an update on the purple coin situation. It seems that many of the prankster comets for the galaxies in the Secret World are purple coin missions. One of which is very similar to Luigi's Purple Coins from the first galaxy. "

Being a poor student, I had to get down and dirty and fix my Wii myself (it was out of warranty) in order to play this game. All in all, Mario and Co. made all the blood, sweat and tears along with countless hours of work worth it. Easily.

i completely agree, i don't even own this game but the first one made me so happy to just play and re play the first levels
