No new suits in Super Mario Galaxy 2
Thursday, July 2, 2009
Those hoping for more Mario suits in the upcoming Galaxy 2 will be sorely disappointed as there will be no new suits in the game states Miyamoto.
Instead of suits There will however be many power-ups for Yoshi that give him special abilities, from speed bursts to balloon effect. As much as we love Super Mario we also love his suits, granted we do get Yoshi in this game, it still doesn’t seem right.
Miyamoto also goes on to give info we already know about which is that this Galaxy game will be much harder than the original and that there will be a time slowdown effect. Miyamoto didn’t go into much detail about this new feature, but we assume it might be another help feature much like that of “Demo Play” on the upcoming New Super Mario Bros Wii.
With any Super Mario game though we expect surprises, so even without new suits we have a feeling this Super Mario Galaxy will be just as good as the last. From what we saw in the E3 trailer who would argue?

--- Time slow down, i don't think its to make the game easier at all. I think its to allow Matrixy planet jumping.
“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.
