Alright Scott in 8 years you better rock that chef hat
Lol mate
Glad to see some one else watching this in 2019

Super Mario Galaxy is one the only video games for me that is truly ageless.
Gamesforus It‘s so weird because I‘ve played through the whole game 3 times and I still want to come back! Not even for new levels but just because it is true fun!
Btw Galaxy 2 was garbage
Pazl That is only your opinion
SkulleD42 That‘s what I‘m here for. Yes
I wouldn't say galaxy 2 was garbage. At first, I thought it sucked because it kept giving me 1-ups at the beginning 4 worlds, so I thought it was "easy" until the rest of the game happened. Its definatly a 3D Mario fans Mario game. It has the challenge, Yoshi, and grand spectacle of Galaxy 1. (Minus some of the atmosphere.) Honeslty the Hardest 3D Mario next to sunshine, except the challenges are fair.
I wouldn't say it was a bad game, just a little rough around the edges with the content, not sure if it wants to be hard, or easy. And the green stars where not necessary. I think Galaxy 1 is by far the better game.
I've beat both the galaxy games 4 times and I still love them galaxy will always be number 1 in my heart because it's the one game I spent years of my childhood playing
5:10 is this image.... foreshadowing
oh shiiiiiiiiii
He knew
blu He's a time traveler
Yes, it is
Yeah, those three games are really the all-stars of their genre. Nintendo should do something about that.
It's been 7 years since I last played a Galaxy game, but when I threw Cappy in Odyssey I instinctually expected more air time. That's how much of an impact such a little guesture engrained into my muscle memory.
I will be very upset with you Scott if you don't wear a chef hat in 10 years from now
youtube will most likely not exist
It probably will.
It will
Gargantuan Watermelon positive thinking my son
Yourboy you don't know that, it could easily be gone in ten years lmao, everyone's a fortune teller.
2017: Scott makes a joke about a future pandemic, then talks about Mario Galaxy.
2020: Actual pandemic and Mario Galaxy is coming to the Switch.
Coincidence? I THINK NOT
holy shit
But he’s not wearing a chef hat now ;(
Don’t forget their bringing back Sunshine and the last level is Corona Mountain 😂
@@not7170 its a 2027 thing you woildnt understand
I wanna hear Scott's opinions on the HD port when it comes out in two weeks. I'm actually rewatching this because nothing else hypes me up for Mario Galaxy like Scott's gushing
i think he'll be happy but will question the limited bs like the 4swords anniversary
Manak Mishra yeah same
too bad there's no sequel :(
Yer
This video got recommended to me because of 3D all stars
14:21 This track right here actually had me tearing up. Galaxy is easily, without a doubt my favorite Mario title and one of my favorite games of all time. At some point I really need to sit down and play through it again, and relive my childhood.
I always struggle to understand why the term linearity is spoken in a negative way. Some of the best games of all time are linear. It shouldn't be spoken of bad or good.
I agree SMG 1 & 2 are masterpieces.
Robert Higgins 🇨🇦🇨🇦🤬🤬🥊🥊
Some people just wish Galaxy was more. I think they imagined it as actually exploring open space, which is as non-linear as it gets, and honestly I get that sentiment. But still, the linear style is still so good that I can look past that opportunity
Yeah, I went through that whole "linear = bad" phase due to the time when most AAA linear games were very bland shooters. These days though, I realize I actually much prefer a well-crafted, linear (or semi-linear) game.
Half-Life is extremely linear but it's one of the best games ever. Why? Cos it was well designed and lovingly made. That's really the what makes games stand out for me, regardless of how linear it is. If it's a corporate, by-numbers shooter or Ubisoft sandbox I'm bored shitless. If it's a game that actually feels like it was made by people who wanted to make it, I'm much more likely to love it because, yknow, they actually cared.
Yeah. I don't get it either. Honestly, I don't care if any 3D Mario games are linear or not. As long as the level designs are open wide for exploring, stretches it as an distance for more to travel & how good it is, than I can have alot of fun. Galaxy 1 & 2 are definitely one of them.
linear level design could lead to better focus and moment to moment gameplay,which galaxy nails
This is why I like Scott. He doesn't force his opinion onto you, he tells you why he thinks it's the best and even throws in some details as to why other games could be considered the best.
*nods* yep cool guy points for him
No no his opinion is a fact
@@Omelander Lol
@@Omelander Also I love Atla
Just like everyone else who has a brain
All the passion and love for Galaxy from Scott that I hear in this video is exactly how I feel about Sunshine. I love that the Mario series is so broad and fantastic that we all have our special game like that.
I want the galaxy games remastered on Switch.
@ravioli man it's not that bad on the switch itself but once you stretch it out it doesn't look that great
No they should so respect to the wii and put mario galaxy 3 on the wii
Yes, if they don't make it in Mario maker that us
I feel the joycons would be the definitive thing to play it on because the “Wii mote” was kinda shit
No. We need a Super Mario Galaxy 3, with an amazing story like Mario Galaxy's, Amazing power ups, and a better replay system.
I’ve never heard anyone describe anything as “sex” until now
yet it works so well
well have you PLAYED gusty gardens galaxy?
Pikmin is sex
Botw is sex
Nintendo is sex
While my heart still belongs to the N64 counterpart, Galaxy is a fuckin' miracle. This game breathed new life into the Mario series, and shown us that we haven't seen everything yet. Kickass work, Scott! Effin' amazing!!
BeeCircled I agree!
I agree.
To think that the image at 5:14 3 years ago, now became the trilogy of a 3D All-Stars collection
You can tell this is a love letter to Mario Galaxy- and I thank you.
This is by far the most beautiful game that I have ever played. My childhood was filled with memories of me and my family playing this game.
Abner same, everything in the game just culminates into an amazing videogame for both children and adults. Everything about the game just turns it into one of the most memorable experiences for anyone who plays it. So i thank Scott for doing this beautiful game justice
Same here This game fills me with so much nostalgia I’ve been playing this game since I was like six and seeing people still talking about it makes me so happy
2027 Scott: let's jump ahead 10 years!
2037: tombstone Scott here!
2027 Scott: lets go back 10 years...
I doubt he'd die at 40
Scott has transcended life and death itself
Logan Baldwin you never know with Robo Ebola, he’s lucky to even be alive in 2027
Alright Scott in 8 years you better rock that chef hat
I can't wait for Robo Ebola in the future!!!
Mario Ploter

No chibi robo in 2027.
Do u watch every channel I watch?
Someone needs to create that
I'm so happy to share my favourite game of all time with Scott and share the same passion that we both have for this masterpiece. This game is just simply amazing in every way, and even if it has some little downsights, it will still be my favourite game of all time.
If only Scott knew he got the name wrong and was 7 years to late
Well for one he wasn’t 7 years late.

am I missing something here
AKA
I fucking hate this game
I very recently played through Super Mario Galaxy on it's entirety and it quickly left a mark on me & became my favorite Mario game. Everything you said about it in this video pretty much covers the entire thing: It's such a beautiful, magical and perfect game. I haven't played Odyssey yet but I hope it's just as good as Galaxy.
I swear the first time I entered Gusty Garden Galaxy and I began flying on the dandelion while listening to the best music track in the game I almost teared up because it was just so beautiful. And it had been a very long time since a video game had that effect on me :,)
I think odyssey is great
@@petunia4957 I was just bored by it I had no fun
Odyssey is an okay game, I wouldn’t say it’s the best Mario game but it isn’t bad, Galaxy on the other hand, imo is the best Mario game
@@AkeyDNB a Nintendo game will never be "bad" they will always be polished but that does not mean the core gameplay will be good
jet 217974 I love how the point I was about to bring up turned out to be your profile icon too lol, that’s a bad Nintendo game, but I didn’t say that I just said odyssey isn’t bad but isn’t the best imo
Robo Ebola does sound a lot cooler than Coronavirus
It would be more dangerous too
9:24 that power up is why super Mario Galaxy isn't 100 on metacritic
It was actually always my favorite just cuz of how limited yet fun the controls on it were
Same
i instinctually liked this knowing that it almost certainly referred to the spring mushroom because my GOD i both loved and hated that thing
And they BROUGHT IT BACK for Super Mario Galaxy 2 (but not the Ice Flower...).
I don’t get the hate on this power up. I think it’s super easy to control
While I do really like Odyssey... Galaxy and 64 left a bigger impact on me. Maybe it's just because I was younger when those games came out so I was a bit more receptive to being amazed. I was 8 when 64 came out and that blew me away since it basically started the 3D platformer/collectathon. I just finished High School when Galaxy arrived and man, that exceeded my expectations. I knew I was going to like it, but I didn't know just how amazing it would be. I think the orchestrated music really helped hype me up in the game. I still casually listen to it. I also do really love Galaxy 2, but it's hard for me to put one over the other.
Your not alone.
I agree. The experience as a whole in odyssey was much more underwhelming compared to galaxy, especially the music.
PaleoSteno COSTUME AND LOCATION SPOILER ALERT FOR ODYSSEY you can be 64 mario after you beat the game and buy the outfit with purple coins at the crazy cap store at peach's castle
Well honestly, Mario Odyssey wasn’t supposed to be a revolutionary game to begin with, but I do think there were great moments in Odyssey that’ll make it an overall incredibly memorable experience in the long run.
Odyssey was just to quick of a game that didn't leave an impact---and my god was it too anti-climatic
Yeah, Odyssey is fantastic and all, but I still want Galaxy 3!
Same
That was galaxy 3 owo
🤔
Literally the same thing
no. no its not
Man I'm so excited for the 3D all stars collection. People who get to play them for the first time are so lucky
Humanity before April 2021 was having a ball
I explicitly bought 3d all stars primarly for Galaxy
64 and sunshine was just a bonus
pretty sure there's still 1 or 2 copies left of 3d all stars at my walmart
Played Galaxy for the first time last year.
And I gotta say, it's one of the most beautiful games I've ever played.
The music is amazing, the visuals are absolute eye candy-
I am honestly glad I was a bit older when playing this game for the first time, it would be a shame not to have enough memories of playing Gusty Garden or Space Junk Galaxy for the first time.
I loved that ending speech. It’s so nice and brings tears to my eyes. And that piano version of Gusty Garden is just amazing.

Mario Galaxy is a true successor to Mario 64?
Mario Odyssey is a true successor to Mario 64 and Sunshine?
So when Nintendo makes the NEXT Mario game, they'll say it's a true successor to Mario 64, Sunshine, and Galaxy?
Clayton Grange no they'll probly say it's a tru successor to odyssey
Definetly NOT Galaxy
@@dabossman5650
Nah.
That's for the game after the next Mario game.
Galaxy is nothing like 64, that's just ridiculous.
Galaxy is more of a true successor to World. It took the spirit of 2d Mario and turned it into 3d. 64 and Sunshine, imo, failed to do that.
0:10 this is the time stamp the new cooking trainer video references
thx
Playing this as a kid I got stuck on the manta ray level; after seeing this I'm remembering just how much fun I had and am excited to start playing it again
So, did you do it?
Still waiting for super Mario Galaxy 3...
It’s like portal. It won’t happen unless it’s a card game.
@Jacob Underwood
More like 1 and a half consoles later
Wii U was just an upgraded wii
Plus, games have come back after longer breaks (Kid Icarus, for example)
Lightning Torch so galaxy 2 is mediocre because it had a world map?
@Jacob Underwood stop scolding people about the rules of the internet 2019 im pretty sure alot of people know about the internet
Would Scott like pikmin 4 or mario galaxy 3

Radchad11 definitely deserves every last one of those subs
I subscribed to Scott when he had 8k... now he's almost on the 50k mark, and Isubded like two or three weeks ago!! So much deserved the grow in his channel... hopefully we'll be a million of us soon!
Radchad11 it was because he was on the trending page for creator on the rise.
Radchad11 now 100k lol
Now he has 10 times that...
Man whenever I hear that opening theme from Galaxy I kinda start to tear up from the nostalgia
I can’t wait to see if Scott genuinely starts wearing a chef’s hat in 2027, assuming if Scott or I get to live that long and if he continues doing his videos.
Thanks Scott, thanks for finally giving this game the respect and praise it deserves on youtube, i dont see many other youtubers talking about this game and we are all happy that someone gave this game justice, so thank you
"That someone gave this game justice" - with a few exceptions, galaxy was really well received...

just 4 more years till we can see the beauty that is Scott wearing a chef hat.
3 more now
I still can't believe Scott the Woz made me actually and genuinely tear up in joy.
I too love Super Mario Galaxy.
This game holds a special place in my heart since it's the first game I finished 100%. I love Rosalina just because of this game's existence.
CuntsuneMiku. For me it was the first game i ever played.
My all time favorite Mario game. I loved everything about Galaxy. Remember when I first got it for a Christmas present, I played it nonstop. Fell in love with the music, the characters, the gameplay, etc. When I first heard the Star Festival theme and then the Star Observatory theme, I knew this game was going to be special. The game just has this overall "magical" feel to it and I applaud everyone who worked on this masterpiece.
3:36 There is a very vocal number of people online that would kill for a chance at this happening to them

One of my favorites as well. This game is pure magic. It has flaws, like every game, but the good parts are incredible. This and Galaxy 2 are the way to do linear 3D Mario to me. I really like 3D Land and World, but those feel like more calculated attempts to be acessible and more like 2D Mario. They were rock solid games, but I don't feel like they are that special. The Galaxy games just have so much creativity and wonder to them. Even 2, which is basically a level pack, felt this way. And the soundtracks... I don't think I'll ever like a Mario soundtrack more than those two. I'm in such a nostalgia trip right now. I really am looking forward to the future of the Mario series. Odyssey was fantastic, and it has amazing sequel potential, but man, you would not get any complaints from me if Nintendo decided to make Galaxy 3.
My favorite ScottTheWoz video.

I feel like crying every time I hear the music or play the game, or even just seeing the game.
This video was so great it made me almost tear up. First game I ever played with my daughter. She was "player 2" and so happy to help her dad collect Star Bits. It'll always have a place in my heart.
It’s always so sweet and wholesome to see RUclipsrs talking about their favorite games. You can tell how much Scott loves this game and how much it means to him. This video feels like his love letter to Galaxy and it’s so fun watching him gush about his favorite game of all time. This game was the first mainline Super Mario game I ever played and it truly felt epic in scale. I honestly cried from how sad Rosalina’s backstory. I hope more gaming RUclipsrs would make videos like this about their favorite video games
Glad to see someone who appreciates Mario Galaxy as the best Mario game. I agree entirely with everything you say. While it's not my favorite game ever, it's my favorite 3D platformer ever, and the memories I had with this game will never leave me. Playing in the wee hours of the morning the day after Christmas, my hands freezing but not caring because I was so amazed. Fighting bowser and finally defeating him. Most of all, discovering the pages of Rosalina's storybook, finding out her story, and crying along with her. This game is one of my all time favorites, and never will it leave me.
Every youtuber’s outro: “so uh yeah like, subscribe, and tell a friend about this video please peace”

To everyone
Well, except for Madden 08, that should be obvious enough to not having to point out.

I personally think that Scott the Character’s favorite game is Madden 08 while the actual Scott’s favorite game (and mine too) is Mario Galaxy

When I replayed this game a few days ago I almost cried. It’s just that great.

I 100% agree with you, Mario Galaxy is my number 1 favorite game. I've been playing it for years and never been disappointed. Ever since I bought it at the store when I was 6 years old. Call me weird but I would bring the box of the game where ever I went just to look at the pictures of screenshots and power ups in aw. For me Galaxy 1 is better than 2 in my personal opinion. One thing I disagree in is that the Manatee levels are waaayyy too fun and awesome even as a kid.

There is something Magical about Early Scott Videos they seem Crazy than now.
I remember playing mario galaxy on my Wii and I gotta say I loved the way the game was a completely new type of game, I remember screaming when I got this game because of how amazing this game looked and felt.
*Gusty Garden Galaxy is S E X.*
I love both galaxies, but I prefer 2 slightly more.
11:28
I prefer 1. 2 seemed like a cash grab.
@@lars1588 nah, it's better
@@MochaRitzI have to disagree with you. 1 has much more depth than 2, and felt so much more real and thought through. 2 really was just extra levels and galaxies. There were no investing story, or interesting characters, just more levels.
The levels are better than the first, and that alone sets it a hell of a lot higher than a cash grab. You may prefer the more cinematic and melancholy tone of the first game, but that doesn't mean the second one was soulless or anything.
Lenny Da Voonci Productions and Yohoat can we just agree there both great?
I know I’m a few years late, but this video perfectly describes how I feel about galaxy. Every single point he made I agree with. Such a special game.
And now it's been 15 years.

Finally someone who has the same love for this game as I do. It's an awesome game. And yes, definetly like it more than odyssey 😂❤️
3 years to go
real
I just got the 3D all stars collection. Mario galaxy will always hold a very special place in my heart, I was 6 when it came out and I remember watching my dad playing the game the day it came out and being mesmerized. It’s not a videogame, it belongs in a museum
YES finally someone else that sees the greatness of galaxy (it my favorite game of all time too)
Galaxy and Odyssey are two great flavors from the same ice cream shoppe. The only edge I would give Galaxy is the music. Without a doubt in my mind, it is the best video game soundtrack ever.
We have to wait 3 years for something like this on Galaxy 2
I was born in 1986 and this game blew me away when I played it. I picked it up at an ebgames for $19.99 just because it was on sale... It's one of the best decisions I ever made. Galaxy is still the best 3d mario
Hardly any youtubers like or talk about this game, which is my favourite, and i feel so happy that it's not just me
Wait, RUclipsrs don't like this game?
quadro beam i know, it makes me sad to not see any other youtubers talking about this game. So thank you Scott, for doing this beautiful game justice

If Nintendo was a single, sentient being making Mario Galaxy:
"I can do anything!"
I never understood the hate for Sunshine. Galaxy is indeed amazing and perhaps even my favourite but Sunshine is easily my second favourite!
Me too. Honestly, I love the sandbox style of Sunshine and the controls in Sunshine are so clean and fun to use. Maybe it's 'cause I grew up with Sunshine, but Sunshine is my favorite 3D Mario game and up there as one of my favorite games of all time.
It's not an bad game by all means. But it does have alot of problems.
Sunshine is a great game, there’s no denying that. The idea is unique, and its a really fun game to play. However, it’s Achilles heel is definitely it’s lack of finesse and polish. Specifically, the unfinished final level of the game and the mechanics and movements of Mario in certain… ahem, Stages. Compared to the rest of the game, the final level is extremely underwhelming and could’ve been done so much better. And the freakin plinko level in its entirety is a fantastic summation of the rest of the issues in the game. While the issues aren’t widespread, where they’re present, it’s extremely obvious and about breaks the game and your immersion
Happy 15 years of Super Mario Galaxy to those who celebrate
I’m currently replaying the game. Reliving my childhood taking me back to 2007.
@@Koohai Nice :)
Oh my gosh, this game. Honestly, this game is the game that truly shaped me as a gamer. Before I ever played this game, I was about as casual as a casual gamer could get. I played Mario Party, Mario Kart, all the generic party type games and Pokemon. And while I finished Pokemon and played other games here and there, I never bothered finishing games. But this game... Oh my gosh, Galaxy was the turning point for me as a gamer. Flashing back to when I got my Wii, I was admittedly a little upset I'd gotten Mario Galaxy alongside my Wii. I was content to wait for Smash and was looking forward to Wii Sports. And yet I still gave it a play because it was still a gift and I'd played Mario 64 and just been okay with the very little exploration I did of the early levels. But something just... clicked with me in Mario Galaxy. I was blown away by the gameplay and how the game looked. I vividly remember being incredibly blown away with finding the Bee Mushroom so much fun. Yeah, it's not as amazing, but again, I wasn't one to play platformers much past the early places and none really blew me away. Yet Galaxy just hooked me and I had so much fun with it that I actually completed it 100 percent. I can vividly remember my last star as Mario was the Purple Coins of Seaslide, Bouldergeist's Daredevil boss run gave me so much trouble and I hated it and I also hated Luigi's Purple Coins, but MAN this game absolutely sticks out for me. Nowadays, I can go back to this game and breeze through it relatively easily, but I think that makes me appreciate the game MORE, rather than less. Not only does it show my progress as a gamer, taking Luigi's Purple Coins and scoffing at the challenge my 10 years ago self faced with it, clearing it with maybe a death or two, but nowhere near the amount I had growing up, but it just is a relaxing game to play through. I can have this amazing experience and just... have fun without needing to worry about the game feeling like it gets cheap or hard to the point I'm playing to clear a challenge or win a game. With Galaxy, I just play to play. To experience. This isn't my absolute favorite game of all time, that honor goes to Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door, but MAN, when I think more and more about Galaxy, I'd honestly say it's a VERY close second, just due to what this game did for me in this soul absorbing hobby called gaming. I think a large part of it is exclusively because they did such a great job with making this game a joy to play and super accessible that I was enamored with the gameplay being incredibly fun and the art direction was simply stunning, that I have to agree wholeheartedly that this game is a masterpiece and easily one of the best games of all time.
Also, the Bowser fights. Holy moly, the Bowser fights are incredible! I wanted to touch on this specifically because, honestly, Galaxy 2 did a piss poor job with Bowser's boss fights and this one did so well. Like, with these fights, they just feel so epic and it's just a lot of fun, and I feel each fight does just enough to change things up that it feels like Bowser evolves with each fight. Especially how the final boss fight gives him two new phases in the boulder and his rolling shell attack that the third fight feels like it's on a much grander scale and just feels like it makes the battle a unique experience. Compared to Galaxy 2 where... he just punches the ground, you smack meteors into him. Each and every time. And sure, he adds stuff to his moves in the second fight, but it felt like he only added to the moves, instead of feeling like he gets new moves and mixes things into the old ones. They're super underwhelming compared to Galaxy 1's, and I just can't help but find Bowser way more fun to fight in Galaxy 1 as a whole. Easily the one aspect undeniably worse in the sequel.
And as for Odyssey, since you brought it up, it's very definitely the best 3D Mario to date. It's similarly accessible like Galaxy, looks better, sounds better, and plays better, with the capture mechanic being just as fun as Mario's spin, if a bit off putting when I throw Cappy expecting to use him as an attack and ending up capturing something, since I have stuff like the Cat Suit's swipe and, of course, the Spin so ingrained into my muscle memory that I can't help but expect to throw and just attack. And similarly, the Bowser fights are a joy in my eyes, being one of the absolute highlights of the game and equally as fun and just different enough between each of the fights as how Galaxy does it. And the game feels equally as cinematic as Galaxy. Sure, it's the same old story, but they do an excellent job telling the same old story in a way that feels fresh and enjoyable. And the one point I disagree with you on in this video is Bowser feeling goofy in Odyssey. If anything, he feels MORE threatening in the main journey, doing things like kicking Mario's butt clear into the Cap Kingdom, blasting his ship to tiny little hat sized bits after the first fight and COMMANDING A GIANT REALISTIC LIGHTNING DRAGON TO BLAST YOU AWAY! It very much feels like he means business in Odyssey and he feels like a legitimate threat and a very imposing figure. ...Then you get to the ending scene which throws all that out of the window, but MAN does Bowser put on quite the show until the ending. And that's not to say Odyssey ended badly, the ending is easily another highlight being so bonkers that it's hilarious. Just saying that he felt like a serious threat and that just leaves when you've finished.
But all that aside, while I think Odyssey is the best 3D outing Mario ever had, Galaxy will always remain my favorite. I know I rambled on a lot, but I just love this game to death and the more I think about it, the more I just can't help but gush on my experiences with this game. It really means a lot to me, and I'm glad you shared this video with us. Thanks, Scott. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go do something decidedly less sappy and be back for future videos, hopefully with less lengthy and more concise comments.
It’s amazing what happens in 2 years cause now Galaxy is being rereleased
If a remake of this came out for the Switch, and only updated the graphics, I would still buy it (I have the OG)
I'd prefer an HD remaster of Sunshine or even 64.
In three years Scott has the chance to do the funniest thing possible
A pandemic?
