Beach Bowl is a more open area, which produces interesting moments like this vine here. Aside from collecting stray Star Bits, it's a mechanic wholly irrelevant to the level design -- you just swing full-circle for the thrill of it.

Such is the "pointless fun" philosophy established from 64.

Like this part? Right here? Every time, I gotta bounce. Endlessly. Like I don't have a care in the world.

This isn't necessarily a dig at 3D Land/World, but I've always believed a key tenet of 3D Mario is how just interacting with the environment is fun.

Galaxy's when 3D Mario begins fully embracing the "obstacle course" design of the 2D games, but the "playground" philosophy of 64/Sunshine's translated into intermittent moments like this.

Just listen to the therapeutic hypnosis of everything here.

Some point out how Galaxy stripped down Mario's movement in lieu of gravity, but while it doesn't flex its muscles the way 64 or Odyssey do, I find said gravity as mindbending as any speedrun.

Just pure, concentrated joy.

So my package for Metroid Prime Visual Retrospective arrived today and I opened it to find...

Nothing.

Methinks Barnes and Noble will have some answerin' to do.

This came to me pretty quickly.

I've never understood this mission. He's just minding his business at the bottom of an underground lake and these cetaphobic assholes want to eject him into space. Bastards. #MarioGalaxy

Great turnout! Palpable energy, peaceful protest, signs aplenty, next to no counter protesters, and yes, tons of fun costumes.

Even Sheldon J. Plankton showed up! Not even the Krabby Pattie Secret Formula takes precedence over democracy, it seems.
