THE FINAL CHALLENGE: GRANDMASTER GALAXY.

BOSH RUSH. PART 2. WORLDS 4-7.

GLAMDOZER: She is the boss of Flipsville Galaxy. You must do a Bomb Jump on her belly to wake her up, and repeat this process while she is chasing you throwing fireballs. Hit her 3 times, and you´ll get the Power Star.


BOWSER (2ND BATTLE): Bowser is coming back in World 4, as the final boss. Now his punch and his meteorites generate expansive waves that can kill you. But what you have to do is the same. Hit him 4 times with the meteorites, so he vanishes again. 


SQUIZZARD: This sand monster is the boss of the Slipsand Galaxy. You will find him in the first mission. He will be throwing you some spiny balls and using some cannons, and you must run and then throw him some fireballs (you need Fire Mario) to his mouth. Do it 3 times, and you´ll burn him.

PRINCE PIKANTE: The ruler of Octoombas will be trhrowing you some lava balls and coconuts. Spin to hit him with the coconuts. Do it three times and you´ll finish him. 



BOOMSDAY MACHINE: This is the last Bowser Jr´s battle. You must use the Cloud Power-Up to reach the cabin, and then do a Bomb Jump. Do it 3 times and you´ll defeat last Bowser Jr´s toy. However, the Boomsday Machine will turn into a TANK!


WHOMP KING: He´s back from Super Mario 64, and you must do a Bomb Jump on his back to defeat him. However, if he smashes you, you die. He is one of the 3 bosses who talk. 


FIERY GOBBLEGUT: Gobblegut is back!!! And the dragon wants revenge. What you have to do is the same that in the battle in World 1. Hit him in his 6 red rings. But now he is faster and it´ll be more difficult. I needed 27 minutes to defeat him. 


BOWSER: The final Battle for the Universe! You must hit Bowser with his meteorites 8 times now to save Peach, the Universe, and everyone again!
BOSS BLITZ: You must defeat 5 bosses that appeared in Super Mario Galaxy:
1) Dino Piranha: Hit his tail three times.
2) King Kaliente: Spin to give him back the coconut and hit him three times.
3) Major Burrows: Do a Bomb Jump and punch him three times,
4) Bouldergeist: Use the Explosive Boos to hit him 6 times.
5) Fiery Dino Piranha: Hit him three time in his fiery tail to defeat this boss.

BOSS RUSH. PART 1. WORLDS 1-3.

PEE-WEE PIRANHA. He is the first boss of the game you will find him in the Sky Station Galaxy. To defeat him you must hit him 2 times in the butt, although before you must break his egg. 




KING LAKITU/ GIGA LAKITU: He is always over his cloud. You will find him in the Yoshi´s Star Galaxy. To defeat him, you must hit him three times with the Spinies he throws to you.




DIGGA-LEG: He is a robot with no arms,  that can create some Diggas to help him. You will find him in the Spin-Dig Galaxy. To defeat him you must hit him three times in his belly. 




GOBBLEGUT: He is the final boss of World 1. You will find him in Bowser Jr´s Fiery Flotilla. You must hit this dragon in his 6 red rings around his belly to defeat him and to get the first Maxi Star of the game.



MANDIBUG STACK: To make this boss appear, you must solve a puzzle of a beetle in the Puzzle Plank Galaxy. You must do a Bomb Jump twice to defear the first boss (or miniboss) of World 2.




BUGABOOM: This is a secret boss. You must pay a Hungry Luma to make him appear. You must use Cloud Mario to jum over him and do a Bomb Jump three times in order to kill him and get the hidden Star of the Puzzle Plank Galaxy.





ROLODILLO: This is the boss of the Boulder Bowl Galaxy. He can roll and be undefeatable. But he will get dizzy, and you must hit him 4 times in his butt to defeat him, so you get the Star of Rock & Rolodillo.



BOWSER (1ST BATTLE):  He is the final boss of World 2. He can use his punch and his flame to make you lose 1 HP. But you can do a Bomb Jump on the meteorites that fall in this planet to hit him. Do it 4 times and he will escape, so you obtain the Maxi Star of World 2. 


SORBETTI: You will find Sorbetti in the second Star of the Freezy Flake Galaxy. This enemy is a PLANET!! But it looks like the rocks from the Boulder Bowl Galaxy. You must hit him in his red, giant nose three times, so you defeat him. This is one of the toughest boss of the game. 


MEGAHAMMER: He is the final boss of World 3. You have to give him back the Bullet Bills he is throwing to you. You must hit this Bowser Jr.´s robot in each blue circle twice, and in his head twice again. By doing this, Martillator will die and you will get the Maxi Star.

PRANKSTER COMETS. THE TOP 10.

PRANKSTER COMETS 

After collecting all the Comet Medals (there is one in each Galaxy, and they are like special coins to unlock new missions), you can unlock some Comets, they are the same missions, but they have changed something. I´m not analysing all the Comets of the game, because they are exactly the same missions, but I´m telling you about the worst Comets of the game (most of them are in World S).

KINDS OF COMETS
Romp Comet: You must defeat a specific number of enemies, usually 30 enemies, such as Octoombas or Spinies, in a specific period of time, usually 60 seconds. 

They can be really challenging. However, none of them are in this top.

Daredevil Comet: You must clear the mission, or the boss of the mission, with only 1 HP, if the enemies touch you, you die. They are really hard, and the Secret Comet should be at the top of the list. What is the Secret Comet? I won´t tell you.. by now. 

Speedy Comet: These comets are really tough. You have a specific time to clear these kind of comets. There may be some clocks so you can have 10 seconds more. If the clock reaches 0, you die. 

Clone Comet: The Cosmic Clones will be chasing you, so you can´t stop running.

Purple Comet: Collect 100 Purple Coins to make a Power Star appear.

Double Time Comet: Everything will go really fast. Run to get the Star!

Luckily, there are some Galaxies, like the Chimp´s Galaxies, that have no comet mission.

THE TOP 10

10. SILVER STARS IN DOUBLE TIME 

This is the comet of the Beat Block Galaxy. Now the panels switch incredibly fast, and it´s really easy to suicide. Just jump when the panels are about to switch. I needed hours to get through these Comet mission. Get the 5 Silver Stars before suiciding, and don´t wait for the Beep. Now it´s useless. 

9. COSMIC CLONES WALL JUMPERS 
You must clear the Flip-out Galaxy while the Cosmic Clones are chasing you. My advice is to use Luigi, and be careful, beacuse the Clones follow all your steps, and a bad jump, specially in the last phase can drive you to death. 

8. SQUIZZARD´S DAREDEVIL RUN
This Comet is in the list because of my personal experience. You have 1 HP, and you must defeat Squizzard again. The difficult thing is that you must stay on a point to throw him the fireballs, and you´re the perfect aim for his Spiny Balls, when you´re not moving. I needed a lot of time to get through this. 

7. TOX BOX SPEED RUN
You have 20 seconds to reach the Star. There are clocks on the way to it, but it is quite easy to get frustrated when Tox Boxes (from the Stone Cyclone) smash you one time, and again, and again... And the timer puts you under pressure.

6. BOWSER´S BIG BAD SPEED RUN

The last Galaxy in World 6 was really long. Can you imagine doing it under the pressur of the timer? You have only 30 seocnds to reach the Star. Although there are timers on the way, you must be incredibly fast if you want to reach the Star on time. Get the Power-Ups and run!!!

5. THROWBACK THROWDOWN SPEED RUN

Do you remeber the Boss Blitz Galaxy? Did you think about doing this under the pressure of the timer? 5 bosses, no recover items, 4 minutes. That´s too much pressure, It seemed impossible for me. It would be grat if you killed Dino Piranha and King Kaliente in less than one minute. You´ll save time for the toughest bosses of the game. 

4. LUIGI´S PURPLE COIN CHAOS

Welcome to Mario Squared Galaxy! Now you must get 100 Purple Coins in a planet with the shape of Luigi. The difficult thing is that you have 2 minutes to collect the coins, the platform will disappear when you touch them, and oh, yeah. The Cosmic Clones will be chasing you along this crazy Galaxy. 

3. TALL TRUNK´S PURPLE COIN SLIDE

RemeMber the Tall Trunk, no? Now you must get 100 coins out of 140 in this crazy Slide. Sounds easy, but it is as difficult as HELL! And if you don´t get the 100 coins, death is waiting for you under the slide. If you beat this Galaxy, celebrate it and don´t come back here again!

2. PURPLE COINS ON THE RAINBOW ROAD

If you think that the previous Comet was difficult, you´ll find this INSANE!! You must collect 100 coins out of 110 in the Rainbow Road. You´re over the ball, a vehicle impossible to control, and you can´t miss almost a single one. And the worst part: YOU´VE GOT 2 MINUTES!!!

1. THE SECRET COMET

THE PERFECT RUN

After getting 240 Stars, 120 Power Stars and 120 Green Stars...

WAIT, what´s a Green Star? They are secret hidden Stars in the same Galaxies. I think these Stars are really repetitive, but also challenging. Wanna now the location of all of them? The video will tell you.

The Galaxies are the same, so it´s like if you´re searching the Comet Medal again.

The Perfect Run consists in clearing the final Galaxy of the game with only 1 HP. It´s pretty challenging. 

If you beat this comet, you´ll pass the game 100%. Here´s my reaction when I beat it. Sorry for the bad quality. It was a long time ago. 

WORLD S-2. THE BOSSES ARE BACK

STONE CYCLONE GALAXY

(GALAXIA CORREDOR ROCOSO)

SILVER STARS ON THE CYCLONE
(¡ESTRELLAS DE PLATA A DOS VELOCIDADES!)
HOW IS THIS GALAXY
Hum, this Galaxy reminds me of a Galaxy in the Beach Bowl Galaxy. It is almost the same. There there were enemies moving really fast. But now, they are EXTREMELY FAST! If you stay a second thinking, you can die. However, there are blue buttons that you can press to make the enemies go slower. The objective is to get the 5 Silver Stars and to reach the Star without dying. 

ENEMIES
Tox Boxes, Thwomps and 2 Octoombas. In this mission it´s like if you had 1 HP- If a Tox Box touches you... TOO BAD!

HOWEVER, YOU CAN ENTER INTO MY MOUTH!
MY ADVICE
I needed a lot of time to get through this Galaxy. What I can say about it? Learn how these Tox Boxes attack and look for the safe place inside their mouths.  Go fast when you stop the time. Or you can do this: 

BOSS BLITZ GALAXY

(GALAXIA JEFE TRAS JEFE) 

THROWBACK THROWDOWN 
(¿OTRA VEZ POR AQUÍ?)
HOW IS THIS GALAXY
This is Super Mario Galaxy 100 %. 5 bosses, 3 HP, insane attacks and no time to have a rest. Anyway, let´s start.

DINO PIRANHA (BOSS)
The 1st boss isn´t really tough. You can defeat it in less that 15 seconds. This enemy was the first boss of the Super Mario Galaxy. And you must hit him in his weak point, his tail, 3 times in order to defeat him so you can advance to the next planet.

KING KALIENTE (BOSS)
Do you remember Prince Pikante, the ruler of the Octoombas? Well, now you face the ruler of the Octopuses, King Kaliente. He appeared i8n the Good Egg Galaxy, as Dino Piranha. To dfeat him, you must do the same you do to defeat the Octopuses: Avoid the lava coconuts, and spin to give him back the green cconut. Do it three times, and you´ll defeat him. 

MAJOR BURROWS (BOSS)
He also appeared in the Gusty Garden Galaxy in the first game of the saga. He was chasing a bunny. Now you must face this crazy mole again. Avoid his spiny helmet. It really hurts. You must do a Bomb Jump when his head appears, and then chase him and punch him. Do it three times (it´s difficult when he gets mad at you), and you´ll advance. 

BOULDERGEIST (BOSS)
He´s one of the most frustrating bosses of this game. Hea ppeared for the first time in Ghotly Galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy. How you defeat him: You must use the Explosive Boos he´s throwing to you. Get one and hit him with it. It looks easy. But here´s the worst part. After hitting him three times, and finishing his first phase, he makes TWO ARMS appear. Now it´s more difficult, and he has a wide variety of attcaks. But this creepy boss is not the worst from this Galaxy. 

FIERY DINO PIRANHA (BOSS)

You wanted more Dino Piranha? Well, you´ve found the one from the Melty Molten Galaxy. I still don´t know how did I managed to defeat this boss. I had 1 HP, and this boss is incredibly tough.  He can spit fire, and it is more difficult to hit him in his tail. He´s faster than the first boss, and when his tail gets fired... You can hit him! However if you believe in yourself (and if you are lucky), you can win! And get the Star.

MY ADVICE

You can pay a Hungry Luma to get a 6 Energy Mushroom before Bouldergeist´s battle. Howver, there´s another one under King Kaliente´s planet. Get them! You´ll need them. 

FLIP-OUT GALAXY

(GALAXIA MURALLA CANALLA)

WICKED WALL JUMPS

(¡UNOS GIROS DE VÉRTIGO!)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

Here you must jump and spin, as the bunnies tell you at the beginning. You must jump though the red and blue walls, in order to go up through this Galaxy. I think it is too easy for this World. And you must feed a Hungry Luma with 2000 Star Bits to get it. However, you can´t let your guard down. I did it, and I needed more than half an hour to get the Power Star.

ENEMIES

Choppahs, Spiders, and the spiny platforms. There are few enemies. That´s why I think this Galaxy shouldn´t be in World S. 

MY ADVICE

Use Luigi. As he can jump higher, it will be easier to complete this Galaxy than if you use Mario. 

And wait for the spiny platforms, or you can make Luigi, or Mario hit in his butt. 

If you want a challenge, try to do this. 

HOWEVER, THIS IS NOT THE LAST ENTRY!

THERE ARE MORE CHALLENGES IN SUPER MARIO GALAXY 2!

WORLD S-1. THE LEGENDARY LEVELS

YOU HAVE UNLOCKED THE SPECIAL LEGENDARY WORLD!!!!

Yes. The adventure isn´t over, but now you´ll have special help to deal with this new Galaxy. A Toad will give you a letter from Luigi. Now you can choose if you want to play as Mario or the Green Brother. Choose the one you want, and now let´s start getting the Power Stars of the Special World. 

MARIO SQUARED GALAXY

(GALAXIA MARIO 2D)

MAKE MARIO A STAR
(LA ESTRELLA DE MARIO) 
HOW IS THIS GALAXY
Welcome to you, Mario! This Galaxy is an 8-bit Mario. There are some blue panels, and you must press all of them to make the Power Star appear. However, the Star will appear at the beginning of the Galaxy, and you must be careful, you don´t walk over all the green platforms: they will vanish if you step on them. And be careful with all he red points, that´s lava.
There is a risky way of getting the Star, without stepping on the green platforms.

This 8-bit Mario also appeared in Super Mario Galaxy. Most of the levels in this special World are inspired in other games.

ENEMIES

There are L´il Cinders, that you can destroy to get coins to recover your HP. And there is a new enemy, un undefeatable enemy that can throw you rays. Be careful with him.

However, the L´il Cinders aren´t a big deal. 

MY ADVICE

Try not to step on the Green platforms. You´ll need them to go back and get the Star at the beginning of the Galaxy. And try to spin when the L´il Cinders aren´t near to the lava, because the lava regenerates them.

And use Luigi. As he can jump higher than Mario, that will help you in order not to step on the green platforms.

ROLLING COASTER GALAXY

(GALAXIA ASTRO IRIS)

THE RAINBOW ROAD ROLL

(CUESTA ABAJO POR LA SENDA ARCO IRIS)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

No, no, no!!! This is one of the worst Galaxy of the game for me. This is the Rainbow Road- do you rememberit from Mario Kart? Now your vehicle is that fraking teasing ball with a Power Star inside it. You must go down through this freaking Roller Coaster without dying while going down (which happens most of the times). The path gets narrower and it´s incredibly easy to suicide. 

ENEMIES

The Goombas aren´t a big deal, you can stomp them easily. But the Bob-ombs... They can throw you out of bounds and kill you (That happened to me). 

MY ADVICE

Don´t go too slow, you´ll die. And don´t go to fast you´ll die. So my advice here is trying to avoid horrible deaths, and watch it in YouTube before trying it. You´ll die, because the ball is the worst vehicle in Mario history.

I´M TRYING TO GET COINS. DO NOT TELL BAD JOKES!

TWISTY TRIALS GALAXY

(GALAXIA MADERAS MOVEDIZAS) 

SPINNING AND SPINNING AND SPINNING

(¡GIRA QUE TE GIRA!)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

This Galaxy is almost identical to a course from Super Mario Sunshine. This video proves it. 

You must walk through moving platfroms without falling and dying. However, there is a Pwer-Up that will help you: the Cloud that can make you create 3 clouds to avoid falling. Here the timing is incredibly important. 

ENEMIES

CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT THERE ARE NO ENEMIES IN THIS GALAXY?

Apart from the blocks, that will be pushing you. 

AH, PEACE!

MY ADVICE

The blocks aren´t really fast, but my advice is not using the Cloud unless you are in danger or about to suicide. It was put there to make it easier. Super Mario Sunshine course was the real trouble, although you had the water to elevate yourslf. 

And you don´t need the Cloud to get the 1UP. Do a Wall Jump!

WORLD 6-3. THE FINAL BATTLE FOR THE UNIVERSE

BOWSER´S GALAXY GENERATOR

(GRIETA GALÁCTICA DE BOWSER) 

BOWSER´S FORTIFIED FORTRESS

(¡ASALTO A LA FORTALEZA DE BOWSER!) 

THE BEST GALAXY IN THE GAME

We have arrived at the last Galaxy of World 6. The final battle is getting started. This is one of the greatest Galaxies in the whole game. I will analyse it in a different way. Because it is the final battle. This Galaxy desrves to have an entire entry. So let´s start!!!

This is a fight to save your special one, Mario. Be careful out there, and don´t give up, no matter what!

That´s what the first Luma tells you when you arrive. You can get the 6 Energy Point Mushroom by jumping on a Bowser´s flag.

 

After gettting through come flames, you reach the Hammer Bros. You must defeat the 3 enemies to make a special flower appear. 

With that flower, you must fly until you reach an earth platform. You can spin three times to go up, and if a fireball hits you, you´ll lose the flower and fall to the lava.  In that earth platform, you´ll find a Spin Drill. You must avoid the Banzai Bills and find the brown platforms to dig, until you reach the Star Ring to go to the next phase. 

When you arrive at the next planet, you won´t have the Spin Drill. But you will have to use the Cloud Power-Up to rach the Star Ring, while avoiding the Dry Bones (they regenerate each time you kill them) and Bullet Bills, that can destroy the clouds. 


Go on and save your special one... and return to us safely!
In the next phase, you must cross across Kamek´s bridge to find Yoshi. You´ll need him to reach Bowser´s door. 

After going through some tricky platforms, that will fall to the lava if you step on them. Then you will face two Boomerang Brothers. By defeating them, you will unlock a path.

This path will be oping and closing, and you must be fast if you don´t want to die. Yoshi must eat the Dash Pepper and start running before the lava crushes you.  If you´re fast enough, you´ll reach the Star Ring.

 Next phase is tough, too. You must walk through the pink path (the one from the Boo Moon) and it will be disappearing. Not just that: Kamek will be throwing you fireballs, and the titanic Magmaarghs will try to eat you. The last one is so big that you´ll need Yoshi to eat the Blimp Fruit to evade it. 


After doing that you´ll reach Bowser´s door. 

My explanation may leave some doubts, so here you have a video. 
But this Galaxy is great. It is the best Bowser´s Galaxy of both games. Good music, most of the Power-Ups, difficult enemies. 

BOWSER´S FINAL BATTLE
It´s time. We must defeat Bowser, and save Peach, the Universe, the Power Stars, the Lumas... Everyone. 
We have faith you´ll beat that monster, Mario!!
We´re all counting on you, Mario!
You must the Universe! After breaking the door, you´ll face Bowser. 
He will tell you his plans of creating a Galactic Empire with Peach, and then he will try to destroy Mario AGAIN!

There is not much to say about this battle. It is like the previous ones in Worlds 2 and 4. It´s not a grat deal. Bowser will try to use his punch, his flame and he will make meteorites fall on the planet. By hitting him 4 times, you´ll send him to a Black Hole, you´ll get the Maxi Star, and save the Universe. Everything is Ok.

SURE? NO. BOWSER NEVER DIES! 
When you´re about to get the Maxi Star, he eats it and he becomes even BIGGER!
Now it will be more difficult to hit him. Because now you will always be over the meteorites. Mario must hit him with these meteorites four times, while avoiding Bowser´s punch. If you do it, a Black Hole will make Bowser disappear. Mario has saved the Universe, AGAIN!

ROSALINA APPEARS
After getting the Maxi Star, Rosalina, the Queen of the Stars, appear with her spaceship (the same from Super Mario Galaxy. That was a REAL spaceship).

And it turns out that the Luma that has accompanied you during all these adventure was Rosalina´s son! The Master Luma goes with his mother, and Mario and Peach return to their World. 



GOODBYE, MASTER LUMA! WE WON´T FORGET YOU.

WORLD 6-2. NOSTALGIA

CLOCKWORK RUINS GALAXY

(GALAXIA RUINAS MECÁNICAS)

TIME FOR ADVENTURE

(UNA AVENTURA ENTRE LAS RUINAS)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

Mario Jones is coming to the Clockwork Ruins Galaxy to get the Power Star! What Mario Jones must do is to find the way to jump in this ancient ruins without falling to the black holes or being smashed by the ancient  blocks that will be falling to the ground. Be careful with the switches you press: they can drive you to die by an Ancient Smash. However, if you use the giant platforms corrctly, you´ll get the Star. 

READY, MARIO JONES? START!

ENEMIES

Apart from the Ancient Smashing Blocks, you´ll find Octoombas-what a surprise, no? 

And Jack O´Goombas. 

YES, They are that small points. If you don´t see them, you are blind. 

MY ADVICE

To avoid being smashed you must wait inside some holes that the Ancient Block have. This will drive you to the Star, and you´ll avoid being smashed. But if you rush, you won´t get anything.

THE LEDGE HAMMER TRAP

(LA AMENAZA DE LAS MAZAS)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

This is the most modern part of the ruins, Mario Jones. A Hungry Luma will ask you for some coins to guide you there. But no one has came back... ALIVE.

After feeding this (Thief) Luma, I discovered a place with no Ancient Blocks, but there are hammers. They will also kill you if you´re down when they fall over you. But you can use the Black-and-White Switch to make them go slowly. However, the ground will push you, and this is one of the most difficult HIDDEN Stars. 

DO YOU THINK BOWSER JR OBTAINED MEGAHAMMER ARMS FROM HERE?

ENEMIES

The electricty, the ground, and that freaking hammers...

MY ADVICE

When you arrive, use thhe wall to do a Reverse Jump, and spin: this is the easiest way to get the Star. In this video, you´ll find out the easiest and the most difficult way to get it.

THROWBACK GALAXY

(GALAXIA FORTALEZA NOSTÁLGICA)

RETURN OF THE WHOMP KING

(EL REGRESO DEL REY ROCO) 

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

Welcome to Super Mario Galaxy 64. Yes, this Galaxy is the same as in Super Mario 64, one of the greatest Mario 3D games. Here you´ll face many enemies (some of them were not in that game) but the Galaxy is almost identic. The structure, the enemies, the Red Bob-ombs, the music... Watch this video if you don´t believe me. I would like to spend hours and hours here. 

ENEMIES

Wigglers, Whomps, Goombas, Skeeters, Piranha Plants... The bad thing of this Galaxy is that there are too many enemies. However, the Red Bob-ombs will be there to help you. 

KING WHOMP (BOSS)

One of the bosses who speak. He wants to smash you. It is like if you´re fighting with only 1 HP: If King Whomp smashes you, you die. He is huge, and he will make the ground shake with every step. But you can do a Bomb Jump on his back three times, so you defeat him again: Bye, Whomp King, you were good in Super Mario 64, and now too. 

MY ADVICE

Enjoy the Galaxy, and all the enemies make a signal before they attack, so you´ll have enough time to avoid  them and to crush them. You can go through the legs of the Whomps, and climb over the Thwomps. THIS GALAXY IS FANTASTIC!

SILVER STARS IN THE WHOMP FORTRESS

(ESTRELLAS DE PLATA EN LA FORTALEZA NOSTÁLGICA) 

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

The Whomp Fortress has recovered the peace after the death of the Whomp King, and the fall of the Whomp Empire. To congratulate you, the Red Bob-ombs have hid 5 Silver Stars in the Fortress, and you must find them all to get the Star. It´s basically clearing the Galaxy again. However, there are no Whomps anymore. You will need the Cloud Power-Up to et these Stars. This is a peaceful Galaxy, from one of the best Mario 3D games. 

ENEMIES

There are Thwomps, Piranha Plants, Skeeters, Goombas... But no Whomps. 

BUT WHY NOT?

MY ADVICE

Enjoy the views and play this Super Mario 64 Galaxy. This is my favourite Star in the game. There´s no pressure, no bosses... Everythng is idillic. 

BUT WHY DID YOU HAVE TO HIDE THE 5 SILVER STARS?

BATTLE BELT GALAXY

(GALAXIA ASTROS SINIESTROS)

MINI-PLANET MEGA-RUN

(RETOS EN LOS PLANETOIDES) 

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

Did you want to do a Pacific Run, without killing Bowser´s Minions? Well, not here. To advance through the mini-planets, you must defeat all the enemies. You´ll find all sort of enemies, from  Goombas to Silver Chomps. The Star Rings will be unlocked every time you defeat all the enemies in the mini-planets. 

 

ENEMIES

I will explain you all the enemies in each Mini-Planet.

1st planet: 1 Goomba. He´s kidding you. 

2nd planet: 3 L´il Cinders.

3rd planet: Some Urchins-you need Fire Mario to defeat all of them.

4th planet: Crabs.

5th planet: Jack O´Goombas, and Boos underwater.

6th planet: L´il Brrs-similar to L´il Cinders. 

7th planet: Monty Moles and Swaphoppers.

Last planet: Silver Chomps. 

MY ADVICE

There´s not really much to say about this Galaxy. Get every coin you can, because somewhere there will be an enemy who makes you lose 1 HP.

SNACKTIME FOR GOBBLEGUT

(¡DRAGOLOSO ESTÁ QUE ARDE!)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY
Do you remember that battle against Gobblegut in World 1? Well, he´s back and he wants REVENGE!! Mario must pay to a Hungry Luma to unlock this planet. Then, the plumber will find out that surprise. 

ENEMIES
You´ll find all the enemies of the Mega Run, except the Monty Moles, the Swaphoppers and the Silver Chomps. 

THIS IS A CRAB, YOU CAN BURN HIM WITH A FIREBALL. IF IT´S BLUE, YOU´LL OBTAIN 1-UP!
FIRE GOBBLEGUT (BOSS) 
Oh, man. You´re gonna regret paying that Luma. The dragon wants revenge. What you have to do is the same as in the previous battle in World 1-hit him in his 6 red rings in the belly. However, now he is faster and more dangerous... If you touch one part of his fiery body, you´ll burn yourself.  The dragon can make some meteorites fall on the planet.  

IT IS NOT AS EASY AS IT MAY SEEM!

MY ADVICE
Get as much Star Bits as you can-you´ll need them to pay for the 6 Energy point mushroom. This boss is so bad!!!!! I needed 27 minutes to defeat him, and I ended up with only 1 HP. 

WORLD 6-1. HUNGRY LUMA´S HIDDEN PATH

MELTY MONSTER GALAXY

(GALAXIA MAGMA MONSTRUOSO)

THE MAGNIFICENT MAGMA SEA

(EL MAJESTUOSO MAR DE MAGMA)
HOW IS THIS GALAXY
The title reflects how the Galaxy is: Magma, magma, magma, and that is... Yeah, more magma. The main monsters are made of lava, and if you go to this Galaxy, you may probably end with a burned butt. The only thing you can do to get the Star is jumping, spinnning, using tornadoes,  and being really lucky, because the final phase is pure HELL! Just look at this image! You must advance through the rocks without being eaten by the Magma monsters.

However, this is one of my favourite missions. It is a good challenge, and it´s even more difficult that Bowser´s final Galaxy. 
ENEMIES
Ejem, ejem, magma, magma and more magma... Apart from the Octoombas, all the monsters are made of lava: Magmarghs, the ones from the Fleet Glide Galaxy) and Magmaws (the ones from the image above) are the main undefeatable enemies. 

THIS IS A MAGMARGH,                              AND THAT IS A MAGMAW

MY ADVICE
As I´ve said before, the last phase is the most difficult of the game. Don´t rush, because the Magmaws willburn you. Try to find a rock where you can stay and when there aren´t any enemies, start running. That planet is HELL! If you´re alive after that, congratulate you. 

A STROLL DOWN ROLLING LANE

(UNA PIEDRA EN EL CAMINO)
HOW IS THIS GALAXY
THIS IS THE WORST GALAXY IN THE WHOLE GAME!!!!! It is the greatest chellenge for Rock Mario. You will have to start rolling, and you will not stop until you get the Star... or you suicide (the second one is the most common thing...). Rock Mario advances really fast: the only thing you can do. Is to jump, and to move him.  I needed 39 minutes to complete this Galaxy. If you thought that the other Galaxy was bad, this is worse. Here you can get lots of Star Bits(until 9999, don´t ask me how I know that), you will get lots of 1-Ups, maybe to make up for all the times you will suicide. 

BREATH IN, MARIO. YOU´LL NEED IT...
ENEMIES
3 lonely Octoombas are trying to stop Rock Mario, but they will be smashed by the giant Rock... If you don´t suicide before reaching them. 

MY ADVICE
If you get the Star, celebrate it and don´t come back to this Galaxy again! No, just joking. Don´t move Rock Mario too much because he has gained a lot of speed. It is almost impossible to control Mario, and moving him a little bit can mean suiciding. 

PLEASE WATCH THE VIDEO! IT´S HILARIOUS!

THE CHIMP´S BOWLING CHALLENGE
(¡A POR PUNTOS! ¡BOLOS FUERA!) 
HOW IS THIS GALAXY
The Chimp´s back! And he has got a new challenge! This is the Chimp´s Bowling Alley. Now, instead of skating, you will need Rock Mario to destroy some enemies that seems like the bowls of the Alley. You must get 5000 points, and that´s difficult (due to the difficulty of controlling Rock Mario, and beacuse the perfect run is getting 5600 points!) I think this this is the most original Chimp´s Challenge. 

ENEMIES
The only enemies you´ll find are the Pinheads (they have a curious shape, don´t you think?) Each one you defeat will give you 100 points. You can only miss 6 of them if you want to get thte Star. 

PLEASE, DON´T STOMP MEEE!
MY ADVICE
You can´t step on the blue platforms. As in the previous Chip´s Challenges, you mustn´t rush because you can repeat the challenge all the times you want, but remeber that you can suicide yourself by falling on the dark zones. 

AN AWESOME GLITCH

HAVE A LOOK AT THIS!

FLASH BLACK GALAXY

(GALAXIA RUINAS Y CENTELLAS)

JUMPING AROUND IN THE DARK

(EL LABERINTO EN LA OSCURIDAD)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

This is a dark mansion. You will have to jump, walk and fly without knowing the path. Everything is in the darkness. You must walk in this dark maze with Yoshi. This mansion will be lightened from time to time by lightning that falls on the roof. That´s when you must go on if you don´t know the way. After collecting 5 Silver Stars in a dark planet, the Power Star will appear. 

ENEMIES

In this dark maze, there are Jack O´Goombas (Goombas with a pumpkin), Paragoombas, Flaptacks and... of course, Octoombas.

TRICK OR TREAT? DIE, MARIO, DIE!!

MY ADVICE

Before you start to run, wait for the lightning to make the path appear. Otherwise, you´ll fall to... Eh, somewhere,  I can´t see what it is because of the darkness. There is an interesting glitch. By doing this, you can arrive at the roof of the mansion. 

SLIMY SPRING GALAXY

(GALAXIA GRUTA ACUÁTICA)

THE DEEP SHELL WELL

(¡UN CHAPUZÓN CON UN CAPARAZÓN!)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

This is one of the worst Galaxies of the game (for me). I needed 1 hour to complete it. What you must do is swimming, and getting a shell to swim faster. You must get coins before you run out of air, and you die. I didn´t know what to do, so I failed in this mission lots of times. You can defeat the enemies to get coins, because there are no bubbles to recover air here. In the end. You must open a barrel, where Captain Toad is. He will give you this Power Star.

ENEMIES

There are lots of enemies: from Gringills, who can´t touch you, to Boos that die with the light from the shell. There are also enemies called Snoodles, and some Urchins, spiny enemies that will be chasing you. 

SNOODLE                                                                                                             BOO 

MY ADVICE

Don´t stop to kill the enemies oir you´ll run out of air. And over all, don´t thorw the shell away. It will make you swim faster, and you´ll need it to open the barrel where Captain Toad is. 

LUIGI CAN ALSO DO IT!!! ALTHOUGH THERE ARE BOOS, HE´S COMING HERE!

THE CHIMP´S COIN CHALLENGE

(¡A POR PUNTOS! ¡UN CHAPUZÓN CON CAPARAZÓN!)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

This is the Chimp´s last Galaxy (YES!!) He has a new challenge. What you must do is clearing the Galaxy again, but you must obtain 10000 points by defeating enemies. Each coin and each enemy will give you 100 points and the coins will help you to recover your air. The 1-Up mushrooms will give you 1000 points, and the Star Bits will give you only 10 points. This is the easiest Chimp´s challenge, although you still lose lifes if you don´t get that points in 120 seconds.

ENEMIES

The same as in the previous mission: Snoodles, Boos, a Paragoomba, and that Urchins. 

URCHIN

MY ADVICE

Before using the Star Ring to access to the second phase, you can fall to a solid surface, get a 1-Up mushroom (1000 points and keep going). You can press Z to stop moving, so it´s easier to kill the enemies. Do you want to know the highscore for this level?

 

WORLD 5-2. THE DEADLY BOSS TRIO

FLEET GLIDE GALAXY

(GALAXIA DESCENSO TORTUOSO) 

FLUZZARD´S WILD BATTLEFIELD GLIDE

(SOBREVOLANDO EL CAMPO DE BATALLA)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

Fluzzard´s back!!! And after feeding a really Hungry Luma with thousands of Star Bits, we´re arriving at a Galaxy with plenty of monsters, but with really good graphs. Mario must glide before all the battlefield crashes. It is a freaking difficult Galaxy, because Fluzzard´s controls are really difficult. It is easy to kill yourself by stomping on the walls, so the 6-Energy mushroom is useless.

ENEMIES

Whoaaaa... Bill Banzais, Magmarghs, Thwomps... A lot of huge, difficult and undefeatable enemies.

MY ADVICE

Don´t rush, and go through the Star Bits path. I think it is important to try some times, because it is impossible to clear this the first time and collecting the Comet Medal. However, there are some stupid fails. 

FASTEST FEATHERS IN THE GALAXY

(EL GUACAPLANO MÁS RÁPIDO DE LA GALAXIA)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

Another Fluzzard´s race. This time there is only one bird to beat, but this bird is extremely fast. The Galaxy is the same as the previous one, but now you have to run, run and glide to the goal!!

ENEMIES

Magmarghs, Thwomps and Bill Banazis... Oh, yes. And the walls that will kill Fluzzard. 

MY ADVICE

Did I say RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN!!!!? This bird is extremely difficult. To be sure that you beat him, you must reach the goal with 1 minute and no more than 10 seconds. This reminds me to the races against the Boos in Super Mario Galaxy. But that was easier. You didn´t have that fragile Fluzzard with you. 

NOW YOU MISS ME, MARIO?? 

SLIPSAND GALAXY

(GALAXIA ARENAS ARRIESGADAS)

SQUIZZARD´S SANDY SINKHOLE

(LAS ARENAS DE LA PERDICIÓN)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

Welcome to the desert, where the sand will be pushing you, so you won´t have chance to move. You must try not to be smashed, in fact, thaere are lots of ways to die like this. One block smash, double block smash, dodged smash... Ok, sorry for discouraging you. The last phase before the boss is worst than the worse Galaxy of the game. Do you remember the slide in Tall Trunk Galaxy?

Well, this is worst. You must avoid the rocks while going down without seeeing anyhing.That rocks can smash you. Somebody helps me?

ENEMIES

That rocks are called Rhomps, and they can smash you like the Whomps, or the Thwomps. There are also monsters called Pokeys, and some flying monsters called Cluckbooms.

POKEY                                                                                                                        CLUCKBOOM

SQUIZZARD (BOSS)

This sand monster is the boss of this Galaxy. He will be throwing you some spiny balls that will make you lose 1 HP if you touch them. You must throw many fireballs (because Fire Mario is essential for this fight, altough the Power-Up disappears in 20 seconds) into his mouth when he opens it. When you hit it twice he will have some cannons to help him killing you. And if you are too slow in the fireballs, he will cover his mouth and you will have to start all over again.

MY ADVICE

Destoy the cannons before hitting Squizzard the last time. And move, becaues if you don´t do it, the sand will throw you to this mouth and you´ll lose 1 HP.

SAILING THE SANDY SEAS
(CRUCERO PELIGROSO POR EL MAR ARENOSO)
HOW IS THIS GALAXY
The challenge continues. Now you must sail though a dangerous sea on a sandy fragile boat. This boat will be disappearing every time you face an obstacle. So you must move through the boat to avoid sinking... But the real trouble are the enemies. 

MARIO, GET READY. THIS IS GONNA BE TOUGH!
ENEMIES
Before reaching the ship, you must walk through lots of fireballs.
The Kameks, or Magikoopas, can make part of the ship disappear by throwing fireballs to it. And the last enemy, the Chomp, will be rolling though the screen, and he won´t stop until he kills you. He keeps there when the ship sinks. He´s really STUBBORN!

JUST LOOK AT HIS EYES. THIS ENEMY IS PURE EVIL!!!
MY ADVICE
There are coins and Star Bits telling you where to place. So follow the game´s instructions. Another advice: wait until the Kameks are on the ship to spin and kill them so they don´t disturb anymore.

HOWEVER, I PREFER TO ATTACK MARIO FROM VERY FAR AWAY, SO HE CAN´T KILL ME. KE, JE, JE!!

SHIVERBURN GALAXY

(GALAXIA LLAMAS ESCALOFRIANTES)

PRINCE PIKANTE´S PEPPERY MOOD

(EL ESCALOFRIANTE CHIQUIPULPO)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

This is a fire and ice Galaxy. You will have to advance through lava planets, full of lava lakes, dangerous volcanoes, and some ice will appear if you press a button. You must keep going and kill the numerous Octoombas that appear in this Galaxy. One curiosity: there are aliens here... You´ll find out more if you keep reading. 

ENEMIES

There are lots of Octoombas, and some enemies called Octopuses (they are great Octoombas who throw you lava balls and coconuts).  There are also some generators that create electricity, that can buzz you. As it may seem, Octoombas are the main enemies in this Galaxy. And the final boss proves that theory...

THESE OCTOPUSES (AND THE ELECTRIC GENERATORS) WILL BE BACK IN THE GREATEST CHALLENGE OF THIS GAME!

PRINCE PIKANTE (BOSS)

This is the Supreme Boss of Octoombas, and he is always in his vehicle. You must try not to be hit by the wheels, and hit him with the coconuts he´s throwing to you, but you can give them back to him, like with the Octopuses. He can throw lava balls, make lava lakes around you, but if you hit him 3 times, you defeat the Octoomba Prince. 

MY ADVICE
Be careful when you spin to hit the coconuts: As the ground is made of ice, you can start skating and suiciding, even if you tried to hit and Octopus.

THE ALIENS
When you land at Shiverburn Galaxy, use the camera to look around. You´ll see that there are some aliens over a cliff. 
 
There they are. They are watching Mario, so if you feel you´re being observed is because of them. I think it was a good idea to include this kind of details, There are lots of hypothesis about how the aliens have reached this Galaxy, and it is an interesting debate, just like Luigi´s Suicide in Luigi´s Mansion. 

Have you seen that shadow? It´s Luigi´s body!

THE CHIMP´S ULTIMATE SKATING CHALLENGE
(¡A MÁS INFLONES, MÁS PATADONES)
HOW IS THIS GALAXY
This is a hidden Star in the Prince Pikante´s mission. After freezing the first planet by pressing a button, you´ll find a green pipe near a Star Ring. Get into the Pipe and the Chimp will tell you to do the Skating Challenge again (do you remember the Freezy Flake Galaxy in World 3?), but now it will be even more difficult. You have 40 seconds to get 600 points. I still don´t know how could I get through that horrendous challenge, and get the Star. 
 
ENEMIES
The Octoombas will try to stop you before you reach the pipe. In the challenge, you´ll face many Gummits (hitting the green ones will give you 10 points, the golden ones have a value of 50 points, and the Spiky Gummits will stop you).

MY ADVICE
Try, try and try. The only advice I can give you is to try hard until you get it. I got 600 points exactly, so I was pleased about it. However, you can learn where are the Gummits you need to hit, because the sequence is repeated every time you try this challenge. 

BOWSER JR´S BOOM BUNKER

(TORRETA ATRONADORA DE BOWSY)

BOWSER JR´S BOOMSDAY MACHINE

(EL BASTIÓN BOMBARDERO DE BOWSY)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

This is the final battle against Bowser Jr. Mario must defeat him if he wants to reach Bowser and save the world (again). You arrive at a planet where you can see the remains from Megahammer. You must use the cannons to advance through this Galaxy, but remeber to be accurate. In the last phase, you will get a Cloud Power-Up, that is needed to defeat Bowser Jr´s last toy. 

ENEMIES
Megahammer can still throw Bullet Bills to detroy you. There are also Mines and 2 stubborn Boomerang Brothers.

DO YOU WANT TO KNOW A SECRET? YOU CAN AVOID OUR BOOMERANGS BY BENDING YOURSLEF! DON´T TELL MARIO!

BOWSER JR´S BOOMSDAY MACHINE (BOSS)
This is the last Bowser Jr´s toy. It is a tower that can throw electric balls to you. It can attract Mario´s clouds and it has fire chains next to it. To destroy the tower, use the clouds to climb to the cabine and do a Bomb Jump. Do it again and Bowser Jr´s will use his last trick: THE TOWER WILL TURN INTO A TANK! Now it will be more difficult, because the tank will be moving. But if you believe you can do it, you will hit the cabine again and you will throw Bowser Jr away, and you´ll have access to Bowser´s World.

MY ADVICE
Remember that there are clouds in the battle, so don´t be sad if you lose your Cloud Power-Up. Be accurate with the cannons, because 1 cm can mean DEATH! But Bowser Jr isn´t relly hard... NOW. 

THIS ISN´T OVER, MARIO!! THE COMET WILL BE YOUR EEEEEEND!!!
And he´s right, but we will talk about that another day.
