I used to do this exact thing with Mario. I always felt bad how he was out on missions with no down time, so I'd go AFK on the bed and let the sleep animation kick in. Glad to see I wasn't alone🥺
I would get tired and let him sleep before I turned the Wii off. Then when I turned it on again it was like he was asleep the whole time I was gone :')
Wait, this is an actual animation in the game!? I've owned the game for about 13 years, yet I never knew this. Hold on, I'll have to try this out for myself later. I'll probably reply again in June since I currently have finals to prepare for :/
Aww, that's so sweet!! Idk how I never thought to do that with the bed, I always let him sleep on the chair outside the library haha. I have to do this next time I play. 🥰
This song reminds me of the time Dad got us a Wii in 2007. It came as a "gift" if you paid 1€ extra when you subscribed to a mobile phone deal. It was the only chance for us to have a Wii, as it was too expensive for us at the time. We weren't poor to the point of starving of course, but we couldn't even afford 40€ or 50€ to buy a game when we received the console. So we only played Wii Sports during 6 months, and when Dad had enough money, we explored each game stores and compared each game's content and prices to make sure we bought the best one. And we agreed to buy Mario Galaxy, which was the best decision ! I have fond memories of the game, and from the Wii period in general, with awesome and exciting games, the ads everywhere, my friends and I talking about games and my parents playing with me. Now I'm 22, studying 3 hours away from my hometown (I know it doesn't sound so far away for big countries like the US but it's kind of a big deal in my country). I haven't seen my family since a while and I miss the old times. I love what I'm studying for, I like my city and all... I know I shouldn't complain and think about the future, but many things seemed easier before. Sorry, this comment is probably full of mistakes and very useless. I feel melancholic right now. If you were capable to read everything... You're courageous ! And because we don't speak much about our feelings in this family and I never tell you this kind of stuff usually: I love you Dad ❤
I rember when me and my brother and sister were littler the wii was amazing, from all 3 of us playing mario bros wii a mario game hasent felt like that since, then mario galaxy I was mario and the orange luma we named Bob the luma it gave more fun to it, then mario kart all 3 of us trying to get first my sister destroying us even with tilt controls.... a game concel hasent been the same since I think that's cause they played with me we bonded by that and that's why when I play a new mario game ya it's fun but it ain't the same it's cause that interaction with them ain't their we still play games together but not to often anymore....... man how time flys....
In this game and on 64, anytime he fell asleep from standing in idle mode I felt like he needed a break so I always let him snooze for a bit, sometimes next to the sleeping piranha plants in 64 and I'd fall asleep too so we all napped together, mario will always have a special place in my heart and childhood memories
I distinctly recall playing Super Mario Galaxy for the nth time. It was night already, and wintery weather was blustering outside. Of course, I had soft blankets and a nice faux-fireplace heater nearby. I was cozy while playing the game, a few cups of tea in my system, and the tiredness was soon getting to me. I decided to walk Mario into the library to have him comfortable near a fireplace so he could have a nap in idle mode. The ambience of the weather outside, the fireplace and soothing library theme was enough to make me fall asleep alongside Mario. It's nice to know there are others with similar experiences, like games really can bring people together.
music and nostalgia is a really powerful thing I remember it like it was yesterday, packing up and leaving my old house filled with memories of me spending countless hours playing Mario's greatest titles on the Nintendo Wii but slowly memories started to fade away , my Wii system stopped working and became ... useless . a few months ago i went to my home my REAL home and I had this playing and I just .. burst into tears , I felt so .. so weak facing the fact that I had just walked away from something I never knew I would miss so dear and so much. but now I'm letting it build me back up rather than tear me down , I am starting to fix my old Wii system to operate properly and embrace the memories the adventurous little red plumber shook my 4 year old hand with and every time i hear this song or look at the pictures it really depresses me ... Mario , Nintendo , Childhood , Nostalgia ... these things can make a man crumble and curl up
After all these years i have realized that, no matter how old are you, where do you live or what are you, if you have played this game, you'll eventually fall in love with it. The extraordinary music, the great level design and, of course, the marvellous storyline will be stuck in your heart forever. Especially the ending, I remember that when I got to the end as a kid for the first time (and even after the first time) I couldn't stop crying. Seeing all the lumas sacrificing themselfs to save the universe was just so.. magical. I really have no words to describe this game as a whole, but it surely has won a special place in my heart. Thank you, Mario.
I remember back then when my parents got me a Wii around 2008 and it came with 2 games, Mario Galaxy included. My dad would play more the other one, but Mario Galaxy catched me in a way I will never forget. Thank you Nintendo for such a beautiful game, it gave me amazing childhood memories ❤
This is the best game ever made, it has a special place in my heart, I love the ambience and the relaxing vibes. This songs remembers me of songs to sleep when I has a baby.
thank you very much man,i looked for this song to listen to it again 4 years ago up to now,that's all my childhood with my twin brother,well i am crying a lot in happiness listen to this song,my beautiful past will be in my mind,and i hope one day i can find the world as mario galaxy again,at all thanks so much i hope your family and you always happy!!
Thanks so much for uploading this kind of slow music and on top of one of my favorite games as a kid! I always play it to sleep and to me at least it puts me to sleep faster than other music, I guess because of the nostalgia factor.
