devil knows. it's more or less the same team that did sunshine and jungle beat, iirc -- you won't find any clues there
They do it on purpose so you think they've still got it and latch on for the next 10 years.
the thing about jungle beat is that you play it with fucking bongos. that's the sort of thing you expect from nintendo -- galaxy on the other hand is a marvel of good taste and clever design. maybe they secretly outsourced it

But to whom?
TOSE has gained a reputation for being a secretive "Ninja" developer.
Yellow comet action is always welcome on EB. IN MY ASS!
It's like they actually learned something about game design in the past decade. I'm at a loss. Short, tightly focused levels, a cromulent amount of challenge, forgiving checkpoints, variety (without annoyance), non intrusive use of waggle, graphics designed around the system's limitations, a fuckton of unique content, a new idea just about every 30 seconds, JESUS. I have put over 14 hours into the game so far, I have 30 stars, and I apparently have a whole fuckton more game to go through. Not only has Nintendo delivered after years and years of whiffing at the home market, but they've done struck themselves a dinger that might might be their single best game to date (at 14+ hours in, I think I am qualified to make that claim right now, unless something goes horribly, insanely wrong, and I doubt they would have let that happen if the first half is this god-damned polished).

The only thing that may annoy you and potentially make your love for the game slightly decrease is that some ideas ARE, unfortunately, recycled in the later stages of the game. Not a lot, but one or two instances. And then there's the last couple of stars that I hear are total fuckhard bullshit. But maybe these are just weaksuace gamers I'm hearing from.

They had me for 7 years or so with OOT.spoiler (click to show/hide)PREEMPTIVE FUCK YOU TO OOT HATERS[close]

OoT came out in 98. So it was roughly 9 years since they lost their ability to make something as fantastic again.

I can do arithmetic. I was saying they had me until 2005. Gamecube :-\
Who came up with the bright idea 'hey, cleaning is fun, right?' ?
I don't think miyamoto directed sunshine. he was obviously looking over every decision though.
I'm just saying you can blame somebody else.

I'm saying it was probably a miyamoto protege that made the game mostly suck so that explains why there was such a long gap between galaxy and a good console mario.I'm just saying you can blame somebody else.So who's blaming who exactly?
Super Mario Bros 3 is still the best.fixed.
as for Galaxy, i will play it soon.
Good point. Just saying Ocarina IS better. It just seems like the Gaf consensus is that A Link to the Past still hasn't been topped yet. What a load of turd.Personally to me it's:

Oh man so much wrong in one post.
I think LTTP is the best Zelda. Am I part of the problem?No, you're right. :-*
TP > OoT
they are still both shit though
Wind Waker is the best 3D Zelda
TP > OoT

Wind Waker is the best 3D Zelda
The correct answer is Majora's Mask.
MM>TP>OoT>WW in terms of 3D Zeldas.
Would you guys mind making a thread called "Idiots argue about Zelda series in here" and stop making me think there is intelligent Mario Galaxy discussion going on everytime this thread is bumped.
Erm...
purple coins :yuck
i'm dropping the game before this bullshit makes me forget how good it was
after you beat the game, you can get the last 15 stars by revisiting old levels and collecting purple coins. which is almost completely unfun. i hate to leave the game 'unfinished,' but i've got other stuff to play

You don't get a special ending or anything, just a distinguished mentally-challenged second-hand character. Don't bother. I'm just going to beat it and pitch it.
I doubt it's anything substantial
