Mario Galaxy
4:21pm, 18th August 2007
Here’s a preview of Mario Galaxy, which looks like the only game I’m interested in getting for my Wii. Since February, it’s been a dedicated Wii Sports box, with occasional usage as a photo and YouTube viewer. But I’m now reminded of how much I enjoyed playing Mario 64 (in emulation anyway; not being able to cheat with instant save/restore points would’ve rendered the game infinitely frustrating for me), and am in the mood to play something genuinely fun. Games these days all seem to be such a chore (cf. gold grinding in World of Warcraft actually being a full-time paid career).
