UK’s Official Nintendo Magazine UK gives Super Mario Galaxy 97%

Super Mario Galaxy gets a 97% from UK's ONM - Image 1Apparently, it’s not just the Famitsu crew that’s seeing stars over Nintendo’s Super Mario Galaxy for the Wii console. We’ve picked up word that UK‘s Official Nintendo Magazine is also enjoying their copy of the game – so much so that they’re giving it a rating  of 97%.

ONM’s Chris Scullion was the gamer who reviewed Super Mario Galaxy, with his full review to be featured in the publication’s issue number 23. Here are some of the highlights of Scullion’s report:

  • Throughout the whole game the graphics constantly amaze, with stunning visual effects, some remarkably huge playing areas, and characters that are positively filled to the brim with personality.
  • The sound is some of the best we’ve heard in a Mario game
  • Some of the power-ups give a similar sense of nostalgia
  • While some of the missions are quite simple, others will test the skills of even the most dedicated Mario fans.

ONM’s only gripe appears to be about Super Mario Galaxy‘s second player function. For the guys who’d like to see if the game’s really as good as the past few reviews say it is, you’ll want to prepare for its Europe launch this November 16. Super Mario Galaxy for the Wii will go into retail for around £ 33 (US$ 68).
