Thanks to a few pages in Famitsu, new details have been revealed about Super Mario Galaxy (http://themushroomkingdom.net/games/smg). The game is composed of 6 worlds, with the confirmed level types being water, sand, ice, and even a planet in the form of a donut. Once again, there are 120 stars scattered amongst the game for players to collect. Gravity is also a major factor of the game, and your view of what's on that planet will vary depending on its size and shape. Fortunately, as we've seen, the controls don't look too difficult. Famitsu explained that you'll be able to point to an enemy with the Wii remote to attack it, or use the butt-stomp attack by pressing "Z" in the middle of a jump. Additionally, The 'bee' suit allows Mario to prick enemies with his stinger, while the 'boo' suit will allow Mario to be undetected by other Boos.
Finally, the magazine details the 2-player mode. The 2-player will primarily help the person controlling Mario by gathering 'Star Parts'. These 'Star Parts' act much like coins, and when Mario gets 100 of them, he gains an extra life. The 'Star Parts' also provide players with a special attack if they are ever in need of one. Click on the magazine scans below to see their full size!

WOW! That's really impressive, Super-Jesse. However, the texts in those pics are 100% in japanese, so i couldn't comprehend a single thing about it.
However, from what you've said (or translated, for a bit), the details about it makes me want to go get that game right now. But sadly, they're not finished in making it, so i have to wait a few more months. Oh well!
-
Heck yeah! You are the man Super Jesse.
I can not even wait for this game...
The variation of level types looks magnificent.
-
I can't wait for this game to come out! Seriously, if I were a Toad with a mushroom head, that mushroom head would explode because it wouldn't be able to contain the excitement I have with this game!
I've also noticed a couple enemies from older Mario games are making an appearance here. In the second scan, you can see Mario jumping on a Dry bones and running away from a Magikoopa. We've also seen wigglers, torpedo teds, thwomps and bullet bills in other screens. That's pretty cool that they're hearkening back to the original Mario days.

^ Indeed.
6 Worlds? So, does that mean the "40 galaxies" thing I heard before is out, or does "World" mean something I don't know?
-
Super-Jesse has predicted (in #tmk) that SMG will be released in Japan on November 2 and in Europe on November 15. Let's hold him to it!
-
What do we do to him if he's wrong?

Maybe worlds are like 1-1, 2-1, 3-1, etc. and galaxies are like 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, etc.
-
That Boo has a Mario hat on and a mustache!
-
That is Mario using a new power-up.
-
Oh! Silly me! Thanks!

Somehow I can't tell whether "World" or "Galaxy" sounds bigger.

Uhhh, I'm pretty sure they said Mario Galaxy is November 12th at E3.

Allright! The Goombas have pumpkin heads! I haven't seen that since.. New SMB.. >_>
I was going to say it looks like the 3D form of the Pumpkin Zone from Super Mario Land 2, but then thought it looked more like New SMB.

Uhhh, that's for North America.

Sorry to post again so soon, but I only had time to look at the one image earlier..
Now that I've seen the second image, the one picture in towards the middle of the page looks like it has Cataquacks in it, from Mario Sunshine and Mario Kart DD.
I thought they weren't going to use things from SMS anymore, but here we've seen Cataquacks and Petey Pirahna. I know this is kind of immature, but I am not looking forward to the game that much if those characters are going to be in it.
On a slight upside, though: 3D Dry Bones and Magikoopas! At last!
-
Cataquacks own, dude. And as for Petey, well, they're never going to stop using him so I guess we should all just get used to it.

That's what I thought you meant, >< my bad. I mess up reading sometimes . :(
