"The Villager's bug catching net that was shown in the movie is actually a grapple move. It is sort of like Link's Clawshot and Samus's Grapple Beam."

Wait, if its a grappling move, then how long will the range be?? O_o Do we know if it can act like Game & Watch's oil bucket but for every projectile?

The net is different from the pocket attack. The net is a grab, the move you press Z to do. The pocket is the move where you grab the projectile and do the same move(presumably) to throw it

"The characters' thick outlines are only available in the 3DS version. Only the external outline is thickened and won't appear in instances like when the hands or feet are overlapping. It's got a softness to it and is not just black."

Super Mario Galaxy stage confirmed!

^holy shit that's beautiful.

Since RTCjunkie did my job for me, I'll only post the Sakurai quote that goes with it : "A new stage, Mario Galaxy!! The pull of gravity emanates from the center of the planet, so this will require using brand-new tactics."

I love it! <3

It looks like the stage does rotate. Looking at the 1st screenshot, it doesn't seem possible to get the second screenshot without the garden getting in the shot. The rotation does seem pretty slow considering the planetoid which is on the right in the 1st is behind Bowser in the second. Completely crossing the screen would take at least 10 seconds but these trees seem to be visible in the 1st screenshot.
