I love Mario and that shows me super fun big time so it's pretty easy to see SMG get my GOTY 2007.

Lots of fun!
This game is for 7 and up. The challenges get pretty tricky as the game progresses. The 2nd player option allowed my younger children to play (4 and 6) with the 8 year olds. Everyone enjoyed watching the game and cheering the players on.

Great Game All Ages
Another great sequel to the mario series. Again as always mario remains kid friendly. And as far as age limit goes I say 7+ ONLY for the fact that any ages younger might not be able to understand some of the things that are going on. Final Verdict- Amazing Game(I played it myself!) All Ages!!

One of the Greatest Games Ever...Period!
Super Mario Galaxy is a graphical and gameplay masterpiece on Nintendo's Wii system. The Wiimote controls are extremely tight and fluid and while you play it feels so natural. This game has the best graphics on the Wii to date and musical score fits perfectly - ranging from recognizable nostalgic themes to pleasurable scores for Mario's space exploration! In addition, you can grab a friend, your child or parent and they can control an additional Wiimote so both can play the game at the same time! One will play as Mario on the screen while the other shoots projectile crystals at enemys and objects so Mario can progress. I highly recommend that every Wii owner purchase this game.

A delightful game for all ages.
Ill get the first thing straight, this game, is gorgeous. Visual beauty awaits at every footsetp, whether your skating, or soaring through the air, everything runs smoothly, and is a blast to do. The controls are very easy and can be used in a variety of ways. everything in this game is perfectly fine for your children who can solve puzzles and things like that. The co-op is okay, its no the greatest though, it can help the younger ones.

Cute but challenging
The graphics are adorable and there are are lots of levels and missions to complete with plenty of surprises around every new corner. It's great that a 2nd player can assist the primary player by using the 2nd wiimote to catch stars, block attackers, etc. The only negative is that the directions are a little vague and some of the missions are too hard for younger players, which invites frustration. I still have no idea what the overall goal of the game is. I got bored with it much faster than the kids did. I don't know how appealing it would be to more experienced teen gamers but the 7-11 year old set had a blast.

The best 3D Mario game to date
Galaxy was one of the most anticipated titles for the Wii. Mario once again needs to rescue Princess Peach from Bowser. The graphics are great from both a technical standpoint and a stylistic view. Mario starts at the beginning of the level and tries to get the star at the end. There is a lot of play time in this game and the concept of the gravity in the game is genius. You bounce from planet to planet and solving the problem in front of you. A great game for 7+.

A cosmic, fun, challenging, frustrating adventure awaits!!!!
K, super mario galaxy is often said to be the best wii game and i agree, but some minor improvements could be made, it would be cool to have like massive planets to explore instead of floating rocks that you could walk around in 10 seconds. i think some missions are way to hard but i managed to finish them anyway. so i suggest YOU buy this game NOW!! stop reading this go buy it! what are you waiting for? go get your shoes on now now! chop chop! off you go!.

( I got excited! when I saw this!)
I think the game is smooth for every teen and adult. The game is for when you are bored and doesn't have any thing else to do. I think the game is something that you might encourage your child to play.

I thought it was great
The reasons are 1. Awsome Graphics 2. Classic Mario 3. New and Inventive controls that fit in 4. Its got much replay value 5. It can be easy or hard depends on if our goal is to get the standard 60 or all 242 stars. 6. It brings back the thrill of playing Mario 64 all over again.

MARIO IS OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!
I love Nintendo, and they truly know how to make great video games, and Super Mario Galaxy is one of them! As a teenager that grew up playing Mario, I really love this game! It was the first game I bought when I first bought the Wii! It is truly impressive and the music is also fantastic! This is a great game for little kids!
