Super Block in Super Mario Galaxy 2 is a NOOOO

I think super guide is an ok feature. It showed me how to beat a stupidly hard level in NSMBWii. :P
 
Wow, a Super Guide in Mario Galaxy?

Almost feels as if Nintendo is mocking us.

Oh well, not mandatory, I guess it's a good feature for kids.
 
Why do people think this is a bad thing?! It's a GOOD thing!! It means they can make the game harder! You don't have to use the Super Guide, you know. If you're good enough, you won't even run into it at all, so what is there to complain about?!

Games shouldn't have to tell you how to beat them.

No, that's what internet guides are for. :P

That's actually a good point, either way people will use some sort of help I guess. So I guess it doesn't matter. =p

But what if the game is so hard that you can't beat it? For a lot of little kids and casual gamers, some games can be just too hard for them. Super Guide fixes everything. It allows the developers to make the game difficult without sacrificing the enjoyment from not-so-skilled gamers. Gamers who are used to difficult games should have no problem, so they'll never even run into the Super Guide. And even if they do mess up and make it appear, it's 100% optional. There is absolutely nothing to complain about. Why should you care if some gamers who may not be as skilled or experienced as you choose to get a little help in a difficult game? It's their choice, not yours. And besides, the Super Guide can't be the game 100% for you. There are still secrets that you'll need to unlock yourself. Honestly, the Super Guide is a win-win. There is nothing wrong with it at all. If anything, it's a great addition.

And in addition to what Tye said, you don't have to use Super Guide. Just ignore the block, and you'll have instant bragging rights. Besides, don't you remember how hard NSMBW was?

Kids and casual gamers can stop sucking then.

If they want to make a game hard then they should not corners around it, if the game is good, people will play it regardless.

But Coma was right in saying that people will find help online anyway, so the point is moot either way.
 
I don't like the idea of it either.
If we had games when we were little that helped us through the entire thing, then we would have gotten bored of them a long time ago.

Like Rob said, if it's too hard for someone then they need to try harder instead of having someone hold their hand the whole time. That's what makes a game fun, being difficult. If you can't get past something you keep trying and trying, not wimping out and having something else do it for you.
 
Casuals and kids don't need to hold hands, they need to learn to play.

Nintendo should slowly turn them hardcore, then we won't get as much shovelware.

Playing mario isn't going to make anybody "hardcore"

Are you really *censored.4.1* about how people play their game....REALLY?!
 
Really guys? I actually agree with Tye on this one. Stop *censored.4.1* about something that, if you're so "hardcore" you won't even run into the block! You'll breeze through the level and not even encounter it. For those who get stuck in say... a shadow mario race, will be able to see the shortcuts through the level and win the level. It's not something that will majorly change the gameplay?

Basically, it's a free game guide! I know some, if not most, if not ALL OF YOU, have at least used a guide at least once. Or even looked up how to do something in game on the internet.

And again, if you're so good at it like you seem to profess, then you won't encounter it, and you'll never notice it. Even if you do mess up, you don't HAVE to use it.

So what if, even with the guide, you cannot beat the level?
