Myamoto: Super Mario Galaxy 2 will be a 'really challenging game'

CC: Super Mario Galaxy 2 is one we haven't heard much about, mainly because of the upcoming arrival of New Super Mario Bros. Wii, but it's looking like it could be a game for the hardcore gamer.

I hope it's tougher. I found the game too easy to be very fun.

[ape007]

it was a bit too easy,I still prefer super mario 64 overall,64 got the edge ccause it had some very good and memorable challenges

[I_LOVE_MYSELF]

Its getting increasingly hard for me to say this... but yeah SMG is still probably my fave game this gen :D

Cant wait for this game

[Trebius]

It really took away from the fun factor...

I hope they make their next Zelda game tougher too...

They need to go back to their roots like in Link to the Past...

The bosses didnt require only 3 hits to die...

They were actually difficult.

(especially the butterfly boss in the dark forest)

For Wii fanboys.

I do believe this one will be harder because right now im playing NSMB Wii and some levels are just irritating the S**T out of me! ahhh brings back memories of Super Mario bros. 3 :) but I would also like to say NSMBW is great its like a Mix of Super mario bros. 2, 3, world and NSMB. Its VERY COOL! the only thing that really makes it like SMB 2 is the fact that you can pick up things.

The first game had some challenging levels, but I'd be up for a harder game, overall. Just give us a release date. With NSMB as a holiday title, I'm wondering if Nintendo would decide to drop SMG2 in March to fill in the Smash Bros. "early AAA title" slot, or if they'd wait and space out Mario for holidays each year.

[Fatal Blow]

I for one will be getting this game loved the first one

[DarkBlood]

as soon as a release date is confirmed *immediate preorder confirmed*

[Redempteur]

i think galaxy was a little easy because sunshine was really hard at times .... and people complained because of that

[EvilTwin]

A chunk of Galaxy's most difficult levels were past the 60-star threshold, though. Maybe they plan on upping the difficulty earlier.

That said, one of my favorite levels in SMG was the space junk galaxy, which put a stupid grin on my face. Wasn't the most difficult, but I loved it.

[TheDeadMetalhead]

I hope so, because SMG was way too easy (like NSMBDS). Make it tough like SM64 and it will be awesome. :D

[TrollSlayer]

if Lttp came out today people would be complaing that nintendo had lost the hardcore gamers and sold out to the casual since that game had TWO items which made you invinceable

[ChickeyCantor]

true.
