It's not like Super Mario Galaxy had a particularly deep story to begin with. I mean, it's barely half a step beyond a regular Mario game. They're still fun, though, so I don't really care if it's the usual save-the-princess-but-find-out-she-is-in-another-castle story.

I really don't see how story can hurt. I mean it sounds like Galaxy had very little story to begin with, and their actually striving for less than that?

It's just gonna be peach being kidnapped for the 1223712819th time. ; ;

Did Mario stories ever have anything deeper than rescuing someone?

Answer: no. Mario stories are about as deep as a 16 year old blonde girl's philosophy on Ethics.

Story? It's an Italian Plumber who's together with a kidnap-prone royalty princess of a land of shrooms who's usually taken by a large reptile and his deformed goons.

Doesn't even make much of a fantasy book.

Even the Mario rpgs weren't plot heavy, they were mostly just comedic, so no I don't expect Galaxy 2 to have a deep plot either.

No Storyline. Man that sucks. I like the stories.

They should bring back Lemmy, Ludwig, Roy, Iggy, Wendy etc. That would be nice to see.


But, generally, a mario game doesn't need a story. It's neer been an in-depth storyline game and I doubt putting it down further is going to hurt anything. Maro game are just about jumping on differently shaped platforms, avoiding traps and collecting coins. And, we play it and love it anyway, despite the simplicity. I don't see a problem.

'sorry but the princess is in another castle'
how captivating. really, i almost cried when i finally found her. such a powerful moment. when all the toads pop out it's like the end of braveheart; mario's convictions to save the princess were just too strong for the fire pits, and red turtles to break his spirit. the final battle between mario and bowser was so tense - a plumber scorned by his lost love(interest), and the wrathful tyrant - making a statement to all radical mercinaries (and maintenance professionals) that his power, and authority was not to be questioned. no man would back down - and when bowser threw the first axe, and that powerful, sweeping FM synthesis kicks in, it's like you're right there with mario, fighting for the freedom of his love/employer.
with all of the axes of the mushroom kingdom hurling at mario at about 47 pixels per second, it looked as if all was lost, and my heart nearly jumped out of my chest. but the moment that bridge fell, the entire population of my living room couch (me, and my cat, flapjack, that is) were brought to tears. a day i will never forget.

PLEASE DONT TAKE THAT AWAY FROM ME NINTENDO.

If by this they mean they're taking out all of the shitty and annoying side characters they've plastered onto the franchise like Walu-*bleep*ing-igi, then good.

Good, I hate Mario plots. They're so stupid.

It's Mario, I'm suprised there's still a storyline. I'd seel even if it was just an empty box. :\

I'd love to just play as Mario hanging out on a daily basis with no daily plans, will this be like an Animal Crossing type game?

I was addicted to this game for weeks lol. They should have some wifi match type thing Where u can build a planet with the stars u collect in game. (amount of stars decides how big it can get.) Then on the plannet u can put opsticles. (Like enemy spawns, battleships, even sub bosses. At the end if the obstacle course would be a destroy plannet button. The match would be played where u go on the other person's plannet. The first personbto destroy the plannet wins. there would be a ranking system.

plannets destroyed: 50
plannets lost: 10

You wouldn't have to rebuild your planet if it geds destroyed. Also there would be a limit ti the amount obstacles used.(depends on size of planet) and only certain obstacles can be used. and no more thAn three of the same obstacles.
