Super Mario Galaxy 2 features ‘New’ 2D action

The latest issue of Famitsu shows off some great new screenshots of Super Mario Galaxy 2. Of note however, are two screens that show a next-gen, very woodsy version of the Mushroom Kingdom, as featured in several Mario titles, including November’s New Super Mario Bros. Wii.

Mario can be seen progressing to the right, only to uncover a few question mark boxes. And who’s with him? Why it’s yellow Toad and blue Toad! Now the game is really morphing the separation I had established between 2D and 3D Mario games. I’m pretty sure this could destroy the space time continuum.

    Yay for Bucken-Berry and Ala-Gold appearances. Though, the resemblance to 1-1 makes me question whether the princess is really in that castle in the background, or if it's just a lie again.

    Looking at the letter from Peach, and the castle in the background, I'm going to take a wild guess and say that this is the intro level.
