And sir, I have to disagree with you on the lookout from Galaxy 1. That to me is what makes it better than Galaxy 2.

We'll just have to agree to disagree here. Galaxy 1's starship hub world really had no secrets to uncover or interesting gameplay to experience. Super Mario 64 tried the same thing but to much greater effect. Heck, even Sunshine did it better. I would have preferred they improve the hub in Galaxy 2 but they chose, instead, to simply remove it (more or less). And I can't pinpoint why, but I just enjoyed Galaxy 2's level design a little more.

Regardless, both are fantastic games and I'd be totally happy with a Galaxy 3 even if it was half as brilliant as those first 2 games were.

As far as Paper Mario goes, I haven't enjoyed one of those since The Thousand Year Door, which was a lot of fun with great writing. I'm hesitant to get excited for one of those coming to the Wii U.
