The latest issue of the Official Nintendo Magazine reached subscribers in the UK today, which contained a 10-page Super Mario Galaxy 2 review. Although a perfect score was not awarded like EDGE, the magazine gave the game a 97%, a very high score. ONM ultimately acknowledged that the title “lacks the original’s impact”, but praised Galaxy 2’s music, power-ups, and graphics. The magazine additionally stated that it is “a whole new heap of genius.” It looks as though Super Mario Galaxy 2 is shaping up to be just as enjoyable as its predecessor, if not more so.

For the most part, I’d say there are no big surprises here. Zelda Wii is listed as TBA rather than 2010…Even though Nintendo is looking to release the game this year, it looks like we won’t hear anything official until E3. And for the umpteenth time, Kirby pops up on a launch schedule. When the heck will Nintendo actually acknowledge Kirby for Wii?
