At the end of Galaxy 2, the entire Mario Galaxy got swallowed by a massive black hole; in other words, there's no Galaxy left for another game continuing the story after Galaxy 2, but a interquel would would still be possible. This makes another game in the series a bit tricky, but maybe Nintendo finds a way to do it - if they want to that is! |
Spoiler!
The same thing already happened in Super Mario Galaxy 1, so SMG2 did a retcon. Continuity or lack thereof has never been an obstacle for Nintendo.
Another example is Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity where you'd first expect to play a prequel to Breath of the Wild with different gameplay, but Nintendo goes the route of alternative universe to have the good guys win, as opposed to them losing and setting up the event chain that led to BotW.
Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV will outsell Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I was wrong.
