A title needs at least 10 reviews in the database before it is placed into the overall rankings, so check back soon to see where this title stands compared to all the others.

Well, looks like Mario 64 has finally been dethroned.

Uh... what?

Mario Galaxy, the orchestrated music sounds sooooo good. If you can, listen to just the first couple minutes of IGN's Wii-k in Review here

See what I mean? I'm excited. Go to minute 22 to hear an oldie that got remixed.

Here we go, a full video of the orchestra without those IGN monkeys talking over it.

This game is going to rule. Due to budget constraints, me and my brother decided to wait until Christmas instead of purchasing it ouselves. Thats going to be the longest 40 days ever.

Budget? smidget

Get it at Toys R Us opening week.
You get a 25 dollar gift card.
So you can re-use that or I don't know.

But makes it easier to buy when getting half back.

It took me a few hours to decide, but it's even better than Mario 64. The further I get into it, the better the game gets. I'm currently 70 stars in and it's incredible. Worth the purchase of a Wii in my opinion.

I had imported the Japanese version of the game, but I've got an English disk now. Three GameStops in town, one with a defective Wii kiosk system. I'm good friends with the manager so he lent me the demo, which turns out is just a retail disk and Nintendo depends on the timed hardware reset in the kiosks for demo functionality.

Metroid Prime 3 has just launched here so I'm kind of busy with that. Maybe we'll wait with buying SMG.

Wow, thats a really good deal. So as long as there's something else you want, your really only paying 25 bucks for the game. I actually might have to look into that, thats almost too good to pass up.

For all of those in the NYC area, which as far as I know is me, Danny and Storm Eagle.

Nintendo World Store will be having a Super MArio Galaxy launch party on sunday night.
At the stroke of midnight, you will also be able to pick up the game.

There's a new Mario game? Crazy.

So ya, probably won't beat this until Xmas time frame. I should try to snag this from the Nintendo store, where they sell it for dirt cheap. Can get a DS Lite for $60.

:eek: Sweet, how does that work?

Anyway, I'm hoping Nintendo will have a nice deal here, but so far nothing.

Okay I just have to say, its a little early to say that this game will dethrone Mario 64 as the best 3D platformer...

That being said it looks like it has a chance...

Being 103 stars in I think it's safe for me to say that it dethrones Mario 64, but keeps a pretty picture of it on the end table.
