Just got all 120 stars, I was surprised about how easy that game was though

Now to play it again on the 2nd time through

12/6/2007 3:58:06 PM

^
Likewise, I hit 120 last night, and I'm 1/120 with Luigi.

12/6/2007 4:02:37 PM

Orbiting is the shit. It is way easier with Luigi.

For all you Luigi players, you are going to fucking hate the Cosmic Luigi race in the Sea Slide galaxy.

12/8/2007 3:43:47 AM

so i've unlocked the gate and beat the challenge. are the purple coins open across the galaxies now or after I beat Bowser?

i have like 80 something stars and the Garden to go.

12/8/2007 3:44:10 PM

you have to beat bowser, and they appear as comets, just like the challenges

12/8/2007 3:46:27 PM

Do you only get Luigi after you beat it once?

"I successfully put Mario into orbit the other day. On the desert level with all the pyramids and rising/falling towers, if you go for the secret star, there is a planet that is the perfect size. If you do a long jump, you can get four or five revolutions. I don't know why it is so fun."

It's strange they can get the physics for that right, but they can't get the physics for jumping on a moving platform right.

12/8/2007 4:33:05 PM

btw....the dreadnought purple coin challenge was easy...once you realize that the platforms will come back.

12/8/2007 4:50:03 PM

I just unlocked Luigi. That mofo can jump. I think he runs faster than Mario too.

And that fucking Toy Time purple coin challenge was a BITCH.

12/8/2007 10:05:53 PM

That ending was great. This game is exactly why I bought a Wii.

99/120 still missing a few regular comets and a few hidden stars from early on. and that damn clean up/ba-bomb 30 second drill on the dreadnought.

but as soon as I beat Bowser I wanted to beat him again this game is just so much fun.

12/9/2007 12:15:11 AM

115/120 for luigi - tomorrow I do the few hard ones plus 2 random purple comets that just never showed up yet.

12/11/2007 12:07:02 AM

About 60 stars in and this game is easily in my top 5 games of all time.

12/11/2007 12:12:44 AM

I don't know what's going on here. But if this is legit then it's pretty awesome.

12/11/2007 5:00:05 PM

not legit.

12/11/2007 5:52:14 PM

242 stars get

Video detailing new secrets (some spoilers, but it warns you)

12/11/2007 6:58:13 PM

I'm not sure if this was included in that video, but you can get a boost on cosmic races by long jumping at the start of the race.

12/22/2007 8:04:12 PM

i think i've got 70something starz now

and i hate spring mario

so much

12/23/2007 5:27:28 PM

i just entered the 2nd dome..it is called the fountain

i have every star i can currently get in the previous dome... when will i be able to complete the first galaxies..i read that you have to collect purple stars and do a speed run...when do those become accessible?

12/26/2007 7:35:44 PM

the speed runs become accessible pretty early on, you can't do the purple coin challenges until you get 60 stars and "beat" the game

12/26/2007 8:39:40 PM

just figured it out.... i just started playing today and already have 18 stars..it is addicting

12/26/2007 8:54:47 PM

I just got it for Christmas and just played it for like 30 mins or so, that is one of the coolest games I have played in a long time. I wasn't a huge fan of Mario 64 or Sunshine but this seems awesome so far.

anyone else have problems with motion sickness or headaches playing this game?

12/28/2007 12:05:16 AM

^ no. I play on a 42" HDTV too.

12/28/2007 12:11:56 AM

whenever i play for more than about half an hour, i get a headache and slight nausea. 52" tv

12/28/2007 12:23:15 AM

I just hit 50 stars... Is there a way to kill those goddamn laser thingies? They are a total bitch, especially when you're springy mario in the toy galaxy. I think I died more on that level than any other I've played so far.

Hahaha wait until you get to the purple coin challenge on toy time.

12/28/2007 9:23:14 AM

I haven't gotten any of the purple coin challenges yet. I think I need all 60 stars to start those. I'm not a fan of the speed challenges (where I race my shadow) or the daredevil ones.

12/28/2007 11:17:01 AM

^ Out of curiosity (honestly, I'm not trying to be an ass or anything), how do you play games that need both the nunchuck and wiimote with only one hand?

12/28/2007 11:24:52 AM

wiimote sits on my lap, so i jump and spin with my left arm. nunchuck in the right hand

if i need the B button or need to point at something, i'll switch hands with the wii-mote and nunchuck

12/28/2007 11:55:12 AM

hooray

beat final bowser...not just time to get the rest of them starz

1/1/2008 6:19:33 PM

I like the races but I wish some of them were a little longer.

agreed, that level is a bitch!

i have 119 stars and this one is my last one, i think i died about 15-20 times before I decided to quit, the most i've gotten in 91 coins and i ended up at the starting spot with no way to get 9 more

1/6/2008 10:46:45 AM

Yeah you pretty much have to set up a strict "course" to get anywhere with it and make sure you leave a return route.

1/6/2008 3:12:48 PM

I noted about a month ago that I was stuck on that level, nothing has changed

1/6/2008 3:49:27 PM

Toy Time purple coins gave me a freaking aneurism . . . until I realized that you have to get 100 of 150 (ie you don't need them all). Only took 2 tries after that.

1/6/2008 5:33:31 PM

Toy Time galaxy gave me a tough time, period. It took me forever to get the 4 normal stars in that galaxy.

1/6/2008 6:51:37 PM

the mole bose is giving me trouble. what's the easiest way to beat this guy?

1/11/2008 1:38:10 PM

Is that the dude that was chasing the rabbits? Then after you smack him around a bit, he starts chasing you? The easiest way of dodging him is to make quick turns.

1/11/2008 1:40:41 PM

mole boss level

this is the level on daredevil comet (one life bar)...but it's the same priciple

[Edited on January 11, 2008 at 2:28 PM. Reason : +]

1/11/2008 2:18:17 PM

i can't remember which galaxy it was...

but there was a boss fight that had you on a pirate ship and you had to fight the big purple wizard guy... then he went up top to the crow's nest and you had to hit him twice up there...
it took me almost 10 tries to beat it normal.

then when i did the daredevil comet with the same fight, i beat it on my first try, go figure.

1/11/2008 3:20:29 PM

aha i did the same thing with the mole dude

1/11/2008 5:24:39 PM

same here

and I just beat that^^ Purple wizard on a pirate ship level last night

1/11/2008 5:42:30 PM

thanks, didn't even realize you could stomp in front of him to get him to pop up. that makes things a lot easier.

1/12/2008 1:50:59 PM

90 starz!

1/12/2008 2:29:29 PM

Beat it Friday and now I'm working on the purple coins. Much harder than I expected.

1/13/2008 2:10:12 PM

wait till toy time time purple coins

1/13/2008 2:21:54 PM

For some reason the toy time purple coin challenge did take me that long, I got it on the second try. The lava one though, pissed me off.
