    This is one sequel which bucks the trend by taking an already good concept and building on it, raising the bar in the process. Simply put, it’s better than the original because there’s a lot more to do, and everything meets or exceeds expectations. Super Mario Galaxy 2 is damn good fun, which is what video games should be. It’s all you could want in a platform title - a ‘must-have’ for Wii owners. Read more

    Super Mario Galaxy 2 is of course the sequel to one of the best games available on the Wii, Super Mario Galaxy. After a perceived drought of quality titles for Wii, owners of the console have been looking forward to at last having something worthwhile playing arrive to the dust-collecting paperweights.

    At the end of the day Galaxy 2 is exactly what most Nintendo fans wanted: another quality Mario title. There is enough here to keep you busy for ages, and the game is remarkably imaginative and fun. It was just never going to be as earth shattering as Mario 64 or the first Super Mario Galaxy . Galaxy 2 doesn't really do much new, or offer that much of a fresh angle over the last game - but it is a solid Mario outing with all the bells and whistles. Read more

    Super Mario Galaxy 2, the sequel to the smash-hit galaxy-hopping original game, includes the amazing gravity-defying, physics-based exploration from the first game, but is loaded with entirely new galaxies and features to challenge and delight players. Read more

    This game has to be the BEST wii game ever released. The graphics are stunning and the music is wonderful :) Just as I thought that this would be a un-entertaining sequel to the now 2nd best Wii game ever, It completely blew me away. And to answer some of your guys questions, Yes it definately is worth buying and you will love it forever and NEVER get sick of it. The epitomy of gaming. Read more

  2. One of the best wii games!

    The game is amazing! It's ease of use, performance, features and quality are a top 5 stars! The graphics are so cool and the game is a bit tricky but I finished it anyway. I have no regret of buying this and I would recommend this game to anyone! Read more

    Overall it's a pretty good game to play alone but if you have a friend I don't reccomend it. I always refused to play as Player 2 because all you get to do is shake and press the "a" button. Read more

    • It has got a great storyline, Easy to learn, Great sounds and graphics, Great 1 Player game, It is very simple at the start
    • 2 Player Co-op is useless player 2 does nothing.
