Super Mario Galaxy 2 – New video and screens, featuring Rock Mario and Light Yoshi!

Featured within is Rock Mario, a new power-up that allows you to transform into a boulder and roll over enemies or smash into objects.  There’s also Light Yoshi, which is activated by consuming Bulb Berries.  While in this form, Yoshi assumes a radiant aura which illuminates dark areas and unveils secret passages.  It subsides over time, but by eating more Bulb Berries, you can revive it.

What can I say?  It looks fantastic!  I can’t wait to get my hands on this game; most of you probably already know how much of a Mario fanatic I am, and this looks to be just the type of sequel that all the fans were waiting for.  Eric Layman has already alluded to such in his blog post, of course… and I really couldn’t agree more.

Enjoy!
