Amen to that. I love Miyamoto, but I hope he goes through with retiring in the next few years. Can you imagine a Mario game where Koizumi has the freedom to do what he wants without being held back by Miyamoto's restrictions? It's pretty dang exciting to think about.

@Porfirio Rubirosa Yeah, and Majora's Mask was also meant to be OoT 1.5 until Aonuma got his way to make it a full sequel. They should have allowed the same for Koizumi. That being said, Super Mario Galaxy 2 is still one of my favorite games of all time. It's just crazy to think that it could have been even better.
@@19Szabolcs91 Originally Miyamoto wanted them to make, like, an "expansion" to Ocarina. The same basic game, but with remixed dungeons (a "2nd quest" if you will, like the 1st Zelda). Aonuma didn't want something like that as he felt the dungeons were already really good. That ultimately became what we know as the "Master Quest" version of OoT. He had more fun making totally new dungeons & eventually asked Miyamoto if he could just make a new game instead. He agreed... but only if it could be made within a year. (Miyamoto just, _really_ wanted them to get more use out of the Ocarina engine back then, since they spent so long making it.) That's the stuff that turned into Majora's Mask.
I really don't know how Miyamoto justifies that not having a story would make the gameplay better. Can they not have separate teams? it is as simple as making the gameplay mechanics first and then a story around them that're not intrusive, and Rosalina's backstory is an excellent example that it can work. But, Miyamoto is the genius, so...

There will always be an insane amount of respect for Miyamoto from myself and others but I feel the more I learn about him and his development choices in the past couple decades or so, the more frustrating it is to hear
I mean, I'm sure he contributes A TON of value to the projects he's involved in, but he sure does seem to have some very out-dated views (which isn't really a surprise, considering he's 68 yars old). On the other hand, paradoxically, he likes to shove novel gimmicks into games where they don't belong and don't work (Star Fox Zero). I don't know if the problem is that he has final say over these things and that he doesn't ever allow younger devs to do their own thing, or if he's just so revered at Nintendo that almost nobody dares to question him.
@@mathyeuxsommet3119 Except not at all. Some games such as Paper Mario 1-2, Sunshine and Odyssey, which Miyamoto had nearly no involvment with, are some of the best of the series. And Zelda is so creative and experimental ALSO because Miyamoto basically let it go and gave it to Aonuma.
@Porfirio Rubirosa Actually, a lot of these games, especially Metroid Prime and Ocarina of Time were are amazingas they were, because of other people's involvement. Still, I don't deny that Miyamoto gave us a lot of amazing stuff. Pikmin, too, btw. But Pikmin was also his last grat contribution. Almost 20 years ago. He lost his touch since then.
Miyamoto's insistence on taking away story elements from Mario games is such a horribly bad take. I've played and enjoyed most mainline Mario games but never considered myself a fan like I do other game series, and I've realized it's entirely because of this insistence on keeping the games devoid of story elements which can make people more invested in the characters and world. It always just feels like I'm playing a video game with Mario rather than letting myself have a suspension of disbelief to get immersed in the world. Galaxy 1 will always be better than 2 in my eyes simply because of its heavy immersion.
I liked Galaxy 2 better. Honestly it made the sappy story from 1 feel unnecessary. I enjoy good storytelling in games as much as anyone but sometimes overemphasis on story does ruin what could have been a good game (like Metroid Other M).
That's honestly why I enjoy Sunshine. While the main story isn't anything, I like the fact that all the NPC's have their own little stories that progress throughout each episode. It makes it fun just talking to the NPCs and seeing what they have to say. I recall stuff like in the first level, that mother with her kids will throw you because she's annoyed at her kids and after a while in a later episode she's like "You just enjoy getting thrown, don't you?" and a similar thing happens in the hotel where a female pinata starts thinking you are going in the ladies room on purpose. It doesn't have to be Metal Gear Solid as one comment here already said, but just a little story can make me feel more invested than just going from point A to B.
@@kyoku1982 As far as the main Mario platformers are concerned, I don't think a single one of them has an "over-emphasis" on story. Or hell, even a "normal emphasis". Odyssey was probably the closest to something like that so far, but they also let you skip any major cut-scenes from the start. How does giving a single new character a short bit of backstory (which is _completely optional_ to see by the way) lead you into talking about an "over-emphasis on story" being a problem? Like, where is that statement even coming from? We're not asking for some huge rpg-like story here, just.. fucking.. _something!_
@@King_Luigi All I ask of from main series Mario is some good platforming gameplay. I'm sorry I made you cry because I found adding some tearjerker backstory unnecessary. If every Mario game started having some sap trap thrown in it would quickly become a joke and I'm glad Miyamoto put a limit on it.
Miyamoto's insistence in this solely gameplay-centric ideal is seriously a hindrance and is counterproductive for the medium. It's like in his perspective, the idea of having good gameplay whilst it still managing to have narrative depth is just not possible--that they are simply mutually exclusive. However, the reality of it says otherwise as embracing the storytelling capability of games would only serve to add more depth and give meaning to its gameplay. In fact, having narrative depth or the possesion of meaningful theme goes well in the act of preserving a game, as with it focusing on the meaningful experience it can provide--no matter how much certain gameplay convetions ages--as long as it has this focused vision, the rich experience a game is trying to convey will stand the test of time. This is the reason why games like Majora's Mask where despite admittedly having certain aspect of it aging terribly, like with its controls and various quality of life features it lacks, is still revered in its strong narrative theming and proper utilization of games' storytelling capabilities as a medium of art. It's just that, certainly, not all games needs to be so frivolous and perhaps pretentious as to take on the moniker of art. It is absolutely fine to choose to tackle the image of games as just glorified toys meant to deliver fun and fun alone. But even so, to be so actively against the quality of games being art like how Miyamoto is adamant about is simply just that--ignorant and a little bit foolish.
I always get in trouble when I say my favorite Mario game is Mario Galaxy 1 because of its story, manly Rosalina story, such a deep dark and interesting story go through, really got me emotionally attached to the character, as it made her my personal favorite Mario character, thank you Koizumi!
man, i have memories of climbing that bell hill map with the arches and musical notes scaling up to the top. i was at a walmart and i was 7. it was so magical
For real, though it seems to be way worse in Zelda. Mario games are fine with a minimalistic story, but Zelda games have an insanely rich lore, and Miyamoto's constant messing gets annoying when he outright refuses others to pursue some great ideas.
@@IfOUGHTpIRANHAz Well, Super Mario Galaxy is for the most part another joyful and colorful platformer, but it does also have some more serious moments, like at the beginning of the game and i never really thought that it clashed all that much with the rest of the game.
Miyamoto has some fantastic ideas and general game design wisdom, but he can be a bit of a stubborn ape (heh) sometimes - leading to many poor decisions that harm some games.
Just a little correction, the All-Star version of Galaxy is partly emulated. The CPU stuff is recompiled, but all other stuff, like GPU and audio, is emulated through the Hagi emulator.
Koizumi is truly one of the better producers at Nintendo at the moment. I will never understand and always hate how Miyamoto tries to make the series as stale and stagnant as ever. Makes me sort of glad he's often taking lesser roles
This may not be official, but I've always seen the reason for Galaxy 2's story as this: At the end of Mario Galaxy 1, if you examine Rosalina's dialogue, you can gather that the Galaxy reset itself, and thus the events of the first game were canceled out by itself. She also said that "the cycle never repeats itself in quite the same way." I always viewed Galaxy 2 as the cycle repeating itself, but slightly different. Only Mario and Rosalina remember the events of the first game.
Looking through the comments section: "I wish Mario had more story." Opinionated youtubers and Sonic fans who grew up with Sonic Colors: "Sonic's stupid friends, amirite?" or "Sonic shouldn't take himself too seriously. He should just shut up and run fast!".
I fail to see why "Baron Brrr" would be a reference to Aaron Burr and not, say, Raymond Burr (who was from Canada, aka the Cold Kingdom) or why it would be a reference to anyone named "Burr", considering that Brrr is merely the expression one makes when feeling cold. I feel some people just love to reach for references where there are none.
I fail to see how "Baron Brrr" could be anything _but_ a reference to Aaron Burr considering they're spelled and pronounced nearly identically (two letters swapped for spelling, an extra "b" sound at the beginning).
I mean, in terms of pronunciation there is literally a one letter difference between the two names. I doubt the reference is trying to have any deeper meaning in its own right, but I'd put money on it still being a reference.
@@VMan776 But why? It's not like the character is in any way similar. It's not like he belongs to a series of characters that are all named after vice presidents. It's not like he's modeled after Burr. It's far more likely that the name similarities are simply a coincidence (with the ridiculous amount of different names in history all over the world, any character you name is bound to sound similar to an existing one).
I feel like miyamoto's hatred of story is a mix of 1. a unwillingness to change the way he's always done things and 2. Just flat out arrogance that his games don't NEED story,because people will buy it anyway.
Koizumi talking about story in a Mario game really brought a smile to my face. I know that Miyamoto is vehemently anti-story in Mario, but I feel that Galaxy really wouldn't have the amazing cinematic feel that it's so known for without the Lumas' backstory, and it makes the end of the game hit you even harder in the feels as a result.
It was an absolute joy to come back to this game to write on it. I forgot just how much variety there is in Galaxy; I don’t COMPLETELY mind having a little less freedom to explore, if it means I get to ride a manta ray, clean up space debris with bombs, roll around on a golden ball and fly around as a bee.😁
For some reason, me playing Mario games or watching them be played makes me want to live longer. Probably because they're all colorful and it makes me happy.
Miyamoto may be a genius when it comes to fun game mechanics, but a well designed story keeps the player engaged. I know now why i never finished Galaxy 2.
I wouldn't call it 'blindly' when it's literally for the very straightforward reason that he's responsible for removing story elements from Nintendo franchise games. This is not a theory, he's said so himself. I don't feel as strongly as 'hate' for him, but it's definitely because of him that I've stopped playing some of their series, because without a story for structure, I just have no interest.
One thing I didn't care for in Galaxy 2 is how they included more blue skies in different "galaxies." Made the game seem a lot less space-y than the first. Kind of hurt the aesthetic, IMO. Why am I not surprised that was yet another Miyamoto mandate?
Re: The mushroom that crashes the game... I'm so glad even Nintendo has that problem lol. There's a hidden Lollipop (a collectable) off screen in my game, because the end-of-level doors were badly coded but I couldn't fix them without breaking the first level. #gamedev
It’s weird for me because I thought the story was the best part of Galaxy 1, but I also think Galaxy 2 is the better game. It’s hard to imagine a best of both worlds scenario.
Yeah, I'm replaying Galaxy 2 right now, and it's amazing how neutered and less epic it feels compared to the original. I mean, it's still an amazing game gameplay-wise, but still...
Wish Miyamoto would stop getting in the way of one of my favourite parts of playing games. He's a core reason I don't like Paper Mario any more and it sucks.
Really glad about the new dev's we've been getting for games like odessey, such a nice blend of story and gameplay. I dream of a day Paper Mario can recieve a similar treatment. the producer was influenced my miyamotos philosophy and it shows, and not in a good way
I am now realizing Miyamoto may be the reason why Princess Daisy, Waluigi, Toadette and much more Mario characters are left in the dust and he prefers to add colored toads instead. I can imagine him saying this, following his philosophy: “you can have the same game experience either playing with Daisy or with a green toad”. Man, Mario lore has so much potential and at this point I think is being wasted because of him. I want so bad to see Sarasaland and Daisy in a Mario main series game again.
It is really sad to see Miyamoto seemingly have a passion to shut down almost everything that is related to story. The "heavy" story elements like the story book or dialogues did not take away anything from the game or it's gameplay and only added stuff. Not to mention that the story book is entirely optional. And then there were "light" storys like the evolution on the penguins to become the best racers in the cosmos or Captain Toad and his crew exploring the galaxies for research. On your first playthrough you might miss ALL of this but there is a lot to appreciate upon closer inspection. Once again I want to stress that this didn't take anything away from the core game at all. These story elements were sadly missing in Galaxy 2 and don't get me wrong, I really really like Super Mario Galaxy 2, it is an amazing game, but the story elements, both the heavy ones like Rosalinas past and the light ones like the storylines of Captain Toad, the Pengiuns, the Bees etc., gave Super Mario Galaxy 1 it's strong identity, which to this day very well may be the still unmatched Magnum Opus of Mario Storytelling among the Mainline 3D Mario Games. I respect Miyamoto as a creative but I can't wrap my head around, how he can possibly be so narrow minded and blind, when it comes to these things and yes, I know that these are really hard words to describe it, but critique must be straight-to-the-point and this is a topic I am really passionate about. If your gaming franchise isn't driven by the story, it doesn't mean you should basically do no story at all. When playing Mario Games today, my desire for some sort of a story rarely get's satisfied. Mario is a franchise driven by gameplay and this is perfectly fine, but Mario Galaxys story did not shift the focus away from the gameplay, it just gave the game more ground to stand on and some things extra to discover for players, who don't just play the game but want to discover worlds and characters within the game. I was so happy, when I saw, how Super Mario Odyssey tried to put more emphasis into a story, even if it's rather simple compared to Galaxy. They created tension within the world and actually a good chuck of the story, like Mario trying to secure the wedding ring from being stolen by Bowser in the Sand Kingdom, is optional. Mario Odyssey might have kinda a weird pacing, when it comes to the story sense, but it took steps into the Super Mario Galaxy 1 direction by introducing subtle story-elements and moments of tension into an otherwise simple story but not taking away from the most important part of Mario: The Gameplay. All thanks to Yoshiaki Koizumi and Miyamoto this time giving the team more freedom in this sense. Once again I respect Shigeru Miyamoto. He has a hand for gamedesign and his hand for creating good gameplay experiences lead to some of the most enjoyable games in the history of gaming and set a standard for many games afterwards, but his approach to story is so minimalistic, that it is really saddening upon closer insprection. When Miyamoto hands the keys to the Mushroom Kingdom over to someone, I hope it is Yoshiaki Koizumi. I think Yoshiaki Koizumi understands, that gameplay is the driving force of Super Mario but you can incorporate a story without hurting the gameplay to create tension and hook the player even with the most basic storyline. Thanks for this video DYKG. Super Mario Galaxy is my most favorite game of all time and I love that you highlighted the story aspect of the game and the games that came after, since it is something I (as a soon-to-be-author) am really passionate about and stories in Mario Games get overlooked very easily.
@@RukoshiSensei wo doesn‘t? Miyamoto is surely a King for inventing the best IPs in videogame history... but he is way too conservative und stays the same... richer stories in Nintendo games would be heaven! PLEASE.
I have to hand it to my boy Koizumi since having an actual fleshed-out story is what makes Super Mario Galaxy so special to me and why I prefer it over the first one. Not that Mario games need an epic and impressive story or anything, since they most certainly don’t, but it just felt like an added touch that I didn’t know I needed but still elevated the series to heights it hadn’t reached beforehand. Miyamoto’s a great game designer and all, but making Mario Galaxy 2 go back to a basic and bare bones Mario story was a big mistake and honestly just borders on lazy. Maybe in the 80s and 90s, games could get away with this, but in the modern era his mindset just seems to be severely dated and only stifles creative freedom, which’s why I’m actually glad Koizumi ended up helming Odyssey while Miyamoto only really served as a producer instead.
Exactly. However, he DID have involvement with the 3 new Paper Mario games. Which is precisely why they are terrible (Sticker Star and Color Splash at least, I havent played Origami King).
She wouldn’t fit into a middleweight kart or bike. Just look how crammed Bowser, Donkey Kong and Waluigi are into the karts in Mario Kart DS. It looks downright painful.
Araña in many Spanish speaking regions can be seen as a euphemism for "lady parts" so they like changed it to emphasize that it's specifically a spider
I appreciate what Miyamoto has done for Nintendo but he is REALLY holding them back now with archaic ideals, your Average child these days handle ipods and tablets, im pretty sure Mario games are never gonna be as complex as Miyamoto fears for "anyone" to handle, which has been his main argument for keeping Mario so simple, he wants Mario accessible to everyone of all ages, kid, teens, adults but the demographic of minimal intelligence has risen, no one will ever find a mario game "Complex" anymore, you wanna know complex? Elite Dangerous, Eve online, Game of fucking Thrones. Yea, Miyamoto needs to chill or retire and let the fresh talent take the wheel, Mario Galaxy was great and then Galaxy 2 was just "Go Save things! no story lul, oh but we added Yoshi so... 60 bucks please. :> " lol thank goodness i never brought Galaxy 2, it certainly would have been a rip off with Miyamoto demanding less story and more simplified gameplay. :/

@@mathyeuxsommet3119 You keep repeating this, and I don't think anyone's buying it.
I mean, I'm sure he contributes A TON of value to the projects he's involved in, but he sure does seem to have some very out-dated views (which isn't really a surprise, considering he's 68 yars old). On the other hand, paradoxically, he likes to shove novel gimmicks into games where they don't belong and don't work (Star Fox Zero).
I don't know if the problem is that he has final say over these things and that he doesn't ever allow younger devs to do their own thing, or if he's just so revered at Nintendo that almost nobody dares to question him.
@@mathyeuxsommet3119 Except not at all. Some games such as Paper Mario 1-2, Sunshine and Odyssey, which Miyamoto had nearly no involvment with, are some of the best of the series. And Zelda is so creative and experimental ALSO because Miyamoto basically let it go and gave it to Aonuma.
@Porfirio Rubirosa Actually, a lot of these games, especially Metroid Prime and Ocarina of Time were are amazingas they were, because of other people's involvement.
Still, I don't deny that Miyamoto gave us a lot of amazing stuff. Pikmin, too, btw. But Pikmin was also his last grat contribution. Almost 20 years ago. He lost his touch since then.
Miyamoto's insistence on taking away story elements from Mario games is such a horribly bad take. I've played and enjoyed most mainline Mario games but never considered myself a fan like I do other game series, and I've realized it's entirely because of this insistence on keeping the games devoid of story elements which can make people more invested in the characters and world. It always just feels like I'm playing a video game with Mario rather than letting myself have a suspension of disbelief to get immersed in the world. Galaxy 1 will always be better than 2 in my eyes simply because of its heavy immersion.
I liked Galaxy 2 better. Honestly it made the sappy story from 1 feel unnecessary. I enjoy good storytelling in games as much as anyone but sometimes overemphasis on story does ruin what could have been a good game (like Metroid Other M).
@@kyoku1982 tbh other m would have been bad regardless.
That's honestly why I enjoy Sunshine. While the main story isn't anything, I like the fact that all the NPC's have their own little stories that progress throughout each episode. It makes it fun just talking to the NPCs and seeing what they have to say. I recall stuff like in the first level, that mother with her kids will throw you because she's annoyed at her kids and after a while in a later episode she's like "You just enjoy getting thrown, don't you?" and a similar thing happens in the hotel where a female pinata starts thinking you are going in the ladies room on purpose. It doesn't have to be Metal Gear Solid as one comment here already said, but just a little story can make me feel more invested than just going from point A to B.
@@kyoku1982 As far as the main Mario platformers are concerned, I don't think a
single one of them has an "over-emphasis" on story. Or hell, even a "normal emphasis".
Odyssey was probably the closest to something like that so far,
but they also let you skip any major cut-scenes from the start.
How does giving a single new character a short bit of backstory
(which is _completely optional_ to see by the way) lead you into
talking about an "over-emphasis on story" being a problem?
Like, where is that statement even coming from?
We're not asking for some huge rpg-like story here, just.. fucking.. _something!_
@@King_Luigi All I ask of from main series Mario is some good platforming gameplay. I'm sorry I made you cry because I found adding some tearjerker backstory unnecessary. If every Mario game started having some sap trap thrown in it would quickly become a joke and I'm glad Miyamoto put a limit on it.
Miyamoto seems to have this old school mentality that games should only have gameplay and not story elements.
Ay, i rly liked rosalina and her story, a shame they didnt use her after smg. (outside mario party characters and stuff.)
I honestly thought Rosalina was making me build up power for her to consume, and that she was going to be the final boss.
"...Or that Mario 64 made Miyamoto question his son's intelligence" never gets old.
its funny that miyamoto did a celebratory fist bump to himself when he said how he stopped the story
"No he wouldn't. Kamek wouldn't say *go to hell* I'm literally crying and shaking right now"
Miyamoto's insistence in this solely gameplay-centric ideal is seriously a hindrance and is counterproductive for the medium. It's like in his perspective, the idea of having good gameplay whilst it still managing to have narrative depth is just not possible--that they are simply mutually exclusive. However, the reality of it says otherwise as embracing the storytelling capability of games would only serve to add more depth and give meaning to its gameplay. In fact, having narrative depth or the possesion of meaningful theme goes well in the act of preserving a game, as with it focusing on the meaningful experience it can provide--no matter how much certain gameplay convetions ages--as long as it has this focused vision, the rich experience a game is trying to convey will stand the test of time. This is the reason why games like Majora's Mask where despite admittedly having certain aspect of it aging terribly, like with its controls and various quality of life features it lacks, is still revered in its strong narrative theming and proper utilization of games' storytelling capabilities as a medium of art.
It's just that, certainly, not all games needs to be so frivolous and perhaps pretentious as to take on the moniker of art. It is absolutely fine to choose to tackle the image of games as just glorified toys meant to deliver fun and fun alone. But even so, to be so actively against the quality of games being art like how Miyamoto is adamant about is simply just that--ignorant and a little bit foolish.

Uh oh a paper mario fan
For real, though it seems to be way worse in Zelda. Mario games are fine with a minimalistic story, but Zelda games have an insanely rich lore, and Miyamoto's constant messing gets annoying when he outright refuses others to pursue some great ideas.
But the story they put in Galaxy clashed so much with the tone of the rest of the game. Miyamoto knows his creation better than others.
@@IfOUGHTpIRANHAz Well, Super Mario Galaxy is for the most part another joyful and colorful platformer, but it does also have some more serious moments, like at the beginning of the game and i never really thought that it clashed all that much with the rest of the game.
Miyamoto has some fantastic ideas and general game design wisdom, but he can be a bit of a stubborn ape (heh) sometimes - leading to many poor decisions that harm some games.
Just a little correction, the All-Star version of Galaxy is partly emulated. The CPU stuff is recompiled, but all other stuff, like GPU and audio, is emulated through the Hagi emulator.
Hearing Miyamoto stomping out the story so adamantly in Galaxy 2 just rubs me the wrong way, he weakens the experience with shit like that.

This may not be official, but I've always seen the reason for Galaxy 2's story as this:
At the end of Mario Galaxy 1, if you examine Rosalina's dialogue, you can gather that the Galaxy reset itself, and thus the events of the first game were canceled out by itself. She also said that "the cycle never repeats itself in quite the same way." I always viewed Galaxy 2 as the cycle repeating itself, but slightly different. Only Mario and Rosalina remember the events of the first game.

I fail to see why "Baron Brrr" would be a reference to Aaron Burr and not, say, Raymond Burr (who was from Canada, aka the Cold Kingdom) or why it would be a reference to anyone named "Burr", considering that Brrr is merely the expression one makes when feeling cold. I feel some people just love to reach for references where there are none.
I fail to see how "Baron Brrr" could be anything _but_ a reference to Aaron Burr considering they're spelled and pronounced nearly identically (two letters swapped for spelling, an extra "b" sound at the beginning).
I mean, in terms of pronunciation there is literally a one letter difference between the two names. I doubt the reference is trying to have any deeper meaning in its own right, but I'd put money on it still being a reference.
I first thought it was a reference to "Barren", thus he's both barren and cold.
@@VMan776 But why? It's not like the character is in any way similar. It's not like he belongs to a series of characters that are all named after vice presidents.

I feel like miyamoto's hatred of story is a mix of 1. a unwillingness to change the way he's always done things and 2. Just flat out arrogance that his games don't NEED story,because people will buy it anyway.
Koizumi talking about story in a Mario game really brought a smile to my face. I know that Miyamoto is vehemently anti-story in Mario, but I feel that Galaxy really wouldn't have the amazing cinematic feel that it's so known for without the Lumas' backstory, and it makes the end of the game hit you even harder in the feels as a result.
this game was my childhood. you really took me back...
It was an absolute joy to come back to this game to write on it. I forgot just how much variety there is in Galaxy; I don’t COMPLETELY mind having a little less freedom to explore, if it means I get to ride a manta ray, clean up space debris with bombs, roll around on a golden ball and fly around as a bee.😁
For some reason, me playing Mario games or watching them be played makes me want to live longer. Probably because they're all colorful and it makes me happy.
I love Super Mario's lore. Although we always get the same premise, the adventures are truly memorable.

Miyamoto is honestly a huge hindrance.
He learned absolutely nothing from Galaxy's 2 lack of story backlash.
I don't think mario should be story driven Odyessy does it right
It’s weird for me because I thought the story was the best part of Galaxy 1, but I also think Galaxy 2 is the better game. It’s hard to imagine a best of both worlds scenario.
Yeah, I'm replaying Galaxy 2 right now, and it's amazing how neutered and less epic it feels compared to the original. I mean, it's still an amazing game gameplay-wise, but still...
Anytime I see a DYKG episode, I stop what I'm doing, grab a snack, and sit back to enjoy the show.
Hey! It is Dazz from The Spriters Resources and VG Facts! I really loved them back then.
Wish Miyamoto would stop getting in the way of one of my favourite parts of playing games.
He's a core reason I don't like Paper Mario any more and it sucks.
I actually prefer the beta "You Got A Star!" theme. Even though it's just a remix of a previous theme.
It's way to grand and celebratory for just a single star
Is there a remix of it somewhere?
Yes my favorite video game in the inter Galaxy I really appreciate adding the story element it's one of the main reasons I love the game so much
Love ur Work guys.

Stay safe.
Really glad about the new dev's we've been getting for games like odessey, such a nice blend of story and gameplay. I dream of a day Paper Mario can recieve a similar treatment. the producer was influenced my miyamotos philosophy and it shows, and not in a good way
I had hoped there'd be a 9GB mini game featuring Toad, but there just wasn't that mush room.
I am now realizing Miyamoto may be the reason why Princess Daisy, Waluigi, Toadette and much more Mario characters are left in the dust and he prefers to add colored toads instead.
I can imagine him saying this, following his philosophy: “you can have the same game experience either playing with Daisy or with a green toad”.
Man, Mario lore has so much potential and at this point I think is being wasted because of him. I want so bad to see Sarasaland and Daisy in a Mario main series game again.
For how great Miyamoto is, he seems stupidly confident that video-games (or at least his) shouldn't have story in them.
nintendo put a fat dude in space and made one of the best games of all time
It is really sad to see Miyamoto seemingly have a passion to shut down almost everything that is related to story.
The "heavy" story elements like the story book or dialogues did not take away anything from the game or it's gameplay and only added stuff. Not to mention that the story book is entirely optional.
And then there were "light" storys like the evolution on the penguins to become the best racers in the cosmos or Captain Toad and his crew exploring the galaxies for research.
On your first playthrough you might miss ALL of this but there is a lot to appreciate upon closer inspection. Once again I want to stress that this didn't take anything away from the core game at all.
These story elements were sadly missing in Galaxy 2 and don't get me wrong, I really really like Super Mario Galaxy 2, it is an amazing game, but the story elements, both the heavy ones like Rosalinas past and the light ones like the storylines of Captain Toad, the Pengiuns, the Bees etc., gave Super Mario Galaxy 1 it's strong identity, which to this day very well may be the still unmatched Magnum Opus of Mario Storytelling among the Mainline 3D Mario Games.
I respect Miyamoto as a creative but I can't wrap my head around, how he can possibly be so narrow minded and blind, when it comes to these things and yes, I know that these are really hard words to describe it, but critique must be straight-to-the-point and this is a topic I am really passionate about. If your gaming franchise isn't driven by the story, it doesn't mean you should basically do no story at all.
When playing Mario Games today, my desire for some sort of a story rarely get's satisfied. Mario is a franchise driven by gameplay and this is perfectly fine, but Mario Galaxys story did not shift the focus away from the gameplay, it just gave the game more ground to stand on and some things extra to discover for players, who don't just play the game but want to discover worlds and characters within the game.
I was so happy, when I saw, how Super Mario Odyssey tried to put more emphasis into a story, even if it's rather simple compared to Galaxy. They created tension within the world and actually a good chuck of the story, like Mario trying to secure the wedding ring from being stolen by Bowser in the Sand Kingdom, is optional.
Mario Odyssey might have kinda a weird pacing, when it comes to the story sense, but it took steps into the Super Mario Galaxy 1 direction by introducing subtle story-elements and moments of tension into an otherwise simple story but not taking away from the most important part of Mario: The Gameplay.
All thanks to Yoshiaki Koizumi and Miyamoto this time giving the team more freedom in this sense.
Once again I respect Shigeru Miyamoto. He has a hand for gamedesign and his hand for creating good gameplay experiences lead to some of the most enjoyable games in the history of gaming and set a standard for many games afterwards, but his approach to story is so minimalistic, that it is really saddening upon closer insprection.
When Miyamoto hands the keys to the Mushroom Kingdom over to someone, I hope it is Yoshiaki Koizumi. I think Yoshiaki Koizumi understands, that gameplay is the driving force of Super Mario but you can incorporate a story without hurting the gameplay to create tension and hook the player even with the most basic storyline.
Thanks for this video DYKG. Super Mario Galaxy is my most favorite game of all time and I love that you highlighted the story aspect of the game and the games that came after, since it is something I (as a soon-to-be-author) am really passionate about and stories in Mario Games get overlooked very easily.
It's actually really funny and satisfying
In my opinion, Galaxy 1 was so much more memorable than Galaxy 2 because there was that epic story.

@@atre5763 Make me
I'm hoping the next 3D Mario game doesn't have Miyamoto's involvement at all.
I have to hand it to my boy Koizumi since having an actual fleshed-out story is what makes Super Mario Galaxy so special to me and why I prefer it over the first one. Not that Mario games need an epic and impressive story or anything, since they most certainly don’t, but it just felt like an added touch that I didn’t know I needed but still elevated the series to heights it hadn’t reached beforehand. Miyamoto’s a great game designer and all, but making Mario Galaxy 2 go back to a basic and bare bones Mario story was a big mistake and honestly just borders on lazy. Maybe in the 80s and 90s, games could get away with this, but in the modern era his mindset just seems to be severely dated and only stifles creative freedom, which’s why I’m actually glad Koizumi ended up helming Odyssey while Miyamoto only really served as a producer instead.
Miyamoto is an anchor against progress in Nintendo and has been since the WiiU.
So they actually recompiled Galaxy 1 for 3DAS
They actually put in a smidge of effort
So I’m gonna assume Miyamoto didn’t have much involvement in the Mario RPG’s if he’s still sticking by that story rule?
