Super Mario Galaxy Nintendo Wii commercial (UK) (1)

Super Mario Galaxy has received universal commercial and critical success. By December 31st 2008, Nintendo had sold 7.66 million copies of Super Mario Galaxy worldwide. It is the second best-selling non-bundled Wii game and the sixth best-selling Nintendo-published game for the Wii; the four best-selling Wii games, Wii Sports, Wii Play, Wii Fit, and Mario Kart Wii, were bundled with the console or an accessory. As of July 9th 2008, the game has sold 912,746 copies in Japan, according to Famitsu. According to the NPD Group, since the launch of the Wii, Super Mario Galaxy has become the third best-selling video game in Canada as of April 1st 2008.

Super Mario Galaxy is the highest rated game of all time on the review aggregator websites TopTenReviews, and MobyGames and third at Game Rankings. Nintendo Power voted in its August 2008 issue that Super Mario Galaxy was the best game for the Wii; it was also the only Mario game to get a top spot on the list, as well as the only game to be unanimously voted for the top position. NTSC-uk said that Super Mario Galaxy "will influence gaming perceptions, sure to replenish any lost passion". GamePro stated that the title "raises the bar in terms of what can be achieved on the Wii."IGN called Super Mario Galaxy "Wii's best game, and an absolute must-own experience", and "one of the greatest platformers ever played." GameSpot praised its gameplay and level design stating: "if ever there were a must-own Wii game, Super Mario Galaxy is it." Game Revolution noted the variety of gameplay, reliable camera angles and easy to use controls.

Reviewers have expressed minor complaints with certain aspects of the game. GameSpot editor Alex Navarro found the spring suit difficult to control at times. Matt Casamassina of IGN noted that the auto-camera "works well most of the time", but occasionally "stumbles", and criticized the plot, revealed through readings from a storybook, for being "an unnecessary side-tale that contrasts with a traditional story".

Towards the end of 2007, Super Mario Galaxy was named Game of the Year by IGN, GameSpot, Nintendo Power, GameTrailers, Edge and Yahoo! Games. On February 7th 2008, the game received the "Adventure Game of the Year" award from the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences at the Interactive Achievement Awards. The game placed 3rd in Official Nintendo Magazine's "100 greatest Nintendo games of all time".
