Two galactic adventures await! Soar through the vast corners of the galaxy, explore and discover all sorts of planets, and use different cosmic power-ups to transform as you put a stop to Bowser’s nefarious plans. Plus, a new chapter has been added to the Storybook in Super Mario Galaxy…and a new Storybook appears in Super Mario Galaxy 2! You can also enable the newly added Assist Mode for a smoother space adventure.

    I hope that the motion controls work better than on the Wii. Not sure it’s worth the cost, though.

      I have Super Mario 3d All Stars which has Galaxy on it. They work much better. Basically you can point wherever you want and press a button to recenter. It’s very easy. So you can lay long ways on the couch and point at the wall instead of the TV and it works. If you reposition you just press a button, no menus to go through. I am assuming this will use the same approach but I cannot be sure.
