To Make a 1up Mushroom, You Must First Create the Galaxy
The Super Mario Galaxy, that is. Here’s a new preview for SMG2, and as I’ve said every time, I don’t know a game I’m looking forward to more on the Wii… or at all, frankly. Actually, with all the new worlds and environments and the rock suit and more uses of the pre-existing suits and stuff, I’m wondering if SMB1 was just a rush job, and this is the game that Miyamoto really imagined for the Wii. Still, I could do without Yoshi, but if I’m able to throw him into a burning sun or a black hole, I guess I’ll be okay.

Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others.
