Super Mario Galaxy - Wii preview FunnyGames, August 7, 2006...We don't know much about the back story yet.

But here comes Ubisoft with a licensed game, whether we like it or not. And frankly, unless you enjoy both light adventure games and the actual show, you'll probably not make it through this one. But for that narrow combination of fans of both, this can wind up being a pretty solid game...
