Apparently, that comes from Prima's official strategy guide for the game. I'd think that's a pretty reliable source. Plus, other websites seem to have been reporting the existence of these green stars as well.

That plus the info that's been sprouting up everywhere saying you'll be able to control Luigi throughout the game before getting 120 stars, makes it seem likely the 2nd batch of 120 stars won't be the same ones as the first 120, only for Luigi (like in Galaxy 1). Well, anyway, IF they exist, and they're what they're rumoured to be, then it appears there are in fact 240 unique stars in the game... That would be incredible, but I'm still not totally convinced.

Just a few more days and we'll know for sure, I guess.

We already know that Luigi can complete the extra monkey challanges. I guess those will be different tasks in the same locations, and you'll get a green star for them.

'Extra monkey challenges'? Hmm, never heard of those, what are they then, exactly? Well anyway, different tasks in the same locations would still mean 240 unique stars. I'm still skeptical, but we'll see.

It was mentioned that some monkey character you meet at the start of the game challenges you to beat loads of enemies and the like.

This thread taunts me but I refuse to read it. I've skipped straight to the end and didn't read a single post.

Monkey Challenges appear to be just normal star challenges. See here for eg.> 

http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/29417 - somewhere in this video, the one with the cloud suit, it shows a monkey, but it seems to be a normal star.

I don't think anyone knows exactly what the green star challenges are yet. Next week.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

You're right. Seems my theory was more of a wish than anything else... v_v
