Mario Galaxy 120 Stars Get

120 Stars Proof

This morning I woke up with the firm intention of getting the few remaining stars I had left in Super Mario Galaxy to reach the 120 stars goal. Some of them posed a challenge but it never turned into frustration. I had done the purple coins and comet stars as they gradually appeared throughout the game instead of leaving them all for the end. It was the right thing to do. I never felt like they were a chore but more like a test of skill.

Thwomp Papercraft

Here’s a thwomp papercraft I made, the download link is just below. The actual model is in color but my printer ink cartridge was empty so I had to print mine in grayscale. I took the thwomps in Super Mario Galaxy as the reference and I think it turned out pretty well. When completed it actually looks and even feels pretty solid if you hold it in you hand.

I would love to see how it turns out in color and with different hands, so please send me some pictures of your thwomps at: prime[at]moreprime.com

Notes:

  • Make a seam with a sharp object on the fold lines, it will help a lot.
  • Cut the center of the front piece to have room for your fingers.
  • The spikes are a pain to make but the more you do the easier it gets.
  • Sticking the backside and the faces should be the last step.
  • When I was a kid, I always thought they looked like cookies in Super Mario Bros. 3.

Buoy Base Galaxy

I don’t like drifting away too much off Team Fortress 2, I’m afraid my skill is going to start to diminish and I won’t be able to be competitive when I’ll get back to it. But Super Mario Galaxy is just so great, right now it is getting all of my gaming time. Mass Effect is just around the corner too, oh boy this is a great time to be a gamer, I just wish there was a little bit more spacing between these great releases.

Mario Galaxy Cover

There’s always a little bit of confusion on the release dates of games here in Canada especially in the province of Quebec. We usually get games one or two days after the official North American launch date, nothing very problematic there but the weird thing is the date is never consistent between retailers. For example Futureshop had it on the 14th, Bestbuy today the 13th and Amazon.ca yesterday. I wanted to get my hands on this game as soon as possible so I tried my luck this morning and got rewarded with a Get!
