Super Luigi Galaxy Video
Mario's brother returns to outer space as a playable character in Super Mario Galaxy 2. Unlike his secret unlockable status in Super Mario Galaxy, Luigi is being pushed to the forefront in this new trailer from Nintendo. He's fully equipped to use the new power ups, ride Yoshi, and be his usual, bumbling self.
I recently went back and played through all of the first Super Mario Galaxy with Luigi. Despite Luigi's slightly loftier leap and slightly slipperier stop, my playthrough with the green-garbed plumber didn't feel very different from Mario. Hopefully in Super Mario Galaxy 2 Nintendo manages to implement Luigi in a more interesting way. Regardless, I'm somehow even more excited for the game's May 23 release.
