The ultimate Nintendo hero is taking the ultimate step... out into space
With a second Wii remote, another player can play alongside.
Ever wondered how awesome it would be to take Mario into outer space for some massive platform play? Super Mario Galaxy does exactly that, taking gamers across an amazing array of galaxies and changing the way you view video games. It really is the ultimate Mario experience, on your Nintendo Wii, or on your Nintendo Wii U in Wii Mode. Test your skills as a Mario master, or get to know the character as a series novice. Leap from planet to planet using the motion sensor and pointer controls of the Wii remote and give the controller a quick shake to test out Mario's spin move.
When some creature escapes into space with Princess Peach, Mario gives chase, exploring bizarre planets all across the galaxy. Players run, jump, and battle enemies as they explore all the planets in the galaxy. Since this game makes full use of all the features of the Wii remote, players have to do all kinds of things to succeed: pressing buttons, swinging the Wii remote and the Nunchuk, and even pointing at and dragging things with the pointer.
This versatility is vital to our hero as he explores the vast cosmic levels of the game. Use the Wii remote pointer to collect Star Bits, which you can then throw at your enemies to stun them. You can also use the pointer to make the most of Co-Star Mode, in which a second player is able to manipulate the environment around you as you control Mario. This can help you manoeuvre, perform special high jumps, hold enemies, and shoot Star Bits in place.
With Super Mario Galaxy for Wii, you'll also see the console at its best with great graphics and awesome camera controls which move with Mario, allowing you to stay in perfect position as you face the challenges of each galaxy. Delve deep into levels with amazing depth of field and visually stunning, atmospheric surroundings. It's a must-have Mario game that will have hardened fans and newcomers transfixed.

Key features
- Shake, tilt, and point! Mario takes advantage of all the unique aspects of the Wii remote and Nunchuk controller, unleashing new moves as players shake the controller and even point at and drag items with the pointer.
- Mario essentially defined the 3D platforming genre with Super Mario 64, and this game proves once again that he is king. Players perform mind-bending low-gravity jumps across wild alien terrain as they experience platforming for a new generation.
- Don't want to head into space alone? With a second Wi remote, another player can play alongside by pointing at and collecting bits of stardust, then launching them at enemies. The second player can even sweep aside projectiles or stall enemies to help make Mario's adventure easier.
