Luigi's reaction to hearing he's being included in a Mario adventure.
I thought the return (again) of the Gooper Blooper would be the biggest Mario shock I would ever have, and quite honestly, it was. But this comes close too. You see, the past two Mario games (64 and Sunshine) revolved around getting Stars and Shine Sprites. Stars are back in this game, but apparently with a twist. As we entered a single-star (supposedly) Galaxy last night, we encountered a green star. Yeah, I know. First of all, it’s enough of a shock that there’s a secret star in a one-star Galaxy. Next, it’s a shock that there’s such a thing as an all-natural star. Apparently there are two more of these in the game which you can collect. To what end, I’m not quite sure.
On the topic of green things, we’ve just saved Luigi. I’m curious as to what function he serves in the game; rumors that he becomes a playable character have been rampant for a long while. It appears he will hint at hidden stars that you missed in previous worlds, pretty cool. I like that you actually get some kind of tip as to where (or at least on what episode) you can find hidden stars, as opposed to just spraying those stupid golden birds. Way to go Nintendo, give into the pressure of the fans and put Luigi in a Mario game.
