Super Mario Galaxy | Unused objects

[@AurumNMG]

So there's been a lot of comments saying things like " is used during/at/for". All of these objects are NOT used at all. They are not placed in any level or created through other means (except where noted). Please keep that in mind!

[@SilverKeeper0]

OK thx for the warning

[@Zachary-tz9pm]

If you're still reading comments from these videos, I think I watched a video explaining the possibility that Beach Bowl and Sea Slide were combined sometime during development but eventually separated. You seem to have Whitehole setup, something I've spent countless hours doing but failing every step of the way. Perhaps you might be able to look into combining the two galaxies together in the editor.

[@casperklinkhamer215]

Making a 3d level creator is quite the task seeing you need to make a good camera you need to make everything 3d and you would have to reskins every 3d object to a certain theme then music enemies and a lot more and for super Mario galaxy you would need to have a gravity setting and a lot more.

[@TheSwordofFlames]

That land mine item seems fully functional. It's fully modelled, textured, animated, and even has it's own sounds. I guess they just never found a good place to use it.

[@maxmurray6225]

It might have been replaced with the bob-omb dispensers used in space junk cleaning up power stsr?

[@conmattang8492]

My guess is it ran too high a risk of hurting yourself while using it. If they extended the timer, though, it would've been fine probably.

[@amethystt727]

[@Gabri_Lovecraft]

There are many times when perfectly fine things are removed for just not wanting to put it in. This goes for the spring in SM64 and such, and correct me if I'm wrong but there was an entirely working enemy in a certain Mario game, I believe Sunshine or 64, that wasn't ever used.

[@Wisoven]

Lol, I would. You have a good point though. I don't see any galaxy needing one.

[@SkyZeroGigaByte]

I wonder why they removed "Jiraira" it was complete and would've been awesome for a boss battle or a level

[@SuperMarioPlush220]

Like a level where you had to run across all of them with out dying

[@bennel3588]

That would probably be good in the sixth dome, because that's the only dome to have four galaxies, and does not have a grand star either. Probably Nintendo considered it worthless, because there's nothing else to unlock. Just put the garage out of reach to where it can only be reached when near the sixth dome, and then the grand star from the sixth dome can unlock it. Was that the name of the starting place? I thought the starting place was garage. It's also strange to be able to reach it from the teleporter near the fifth dome. The red star could still get a chance to be used when trying to go to the galaxies with the purple coins, because they appear after beating Bowser in the center of the universe, and I think all the other power stars had to be collected. I got all the power stars available before going to the center of the universe.

I can imagine the pole without the model would be used for allowing mario to climb up collisionless pole-like objects, like a lollipop stick or something. It probably wasn't used because they found a way to make something climbable on it's own. idk though

[@AurumNMG]

That's indeed what it would be used for. They have used different invisible poles for things like the ice bars in Toy Time Galaxy.

[@bubstrystudios]

Something really weird about the crystal switch: I once had a dream like 8 years ago where I was playing Mario Galaxy and there was a secret boss where you had to hit crystals in a certain order to beat it. The texture, model and animation were EXACTLY the same. And at the time I had no idea that games had unused objects.

I think that the "UFOBlueStarCapsule" was to be used in Space Junk Galaxy, like the planets with blue stars inside. Unused objects and things are always interesting and it's fun to try to guess what the objects suppose to did (maybe is only me XD). Sorry for my bad english :)

[@AurumNMG]

I guess that the developers most likely forgot about that object. It's fully functional and it really fits in Space Junk Galaxy. Also, nothing's wrong with your comment, lul.

Well, only the developers know about this object XDD And I thought that something in my comment was going to be wrong. I'm glad to know that :)

Fun fact: that starry sky model near the beginning of the video that went unused had some green in it, which would actually represent the presence of oxygen in a nebula that would have been in front of the stars behind it, which is why that certain part of space would appear green. Oxygen has a tendency to reradiate or reflect light in the green portion of the spectrum, which is also why aurorae often have many streaks of green lights in them. Oxygen in the atmosphere is excited by light energy from the sun, and the oxygen reradiates that energy in the green portion of the spectrum. Carbon does the same except it reradiates light in the red portion of the spectrum. The more you know. I didnt do a Google search to find that out, I actually just really like space and everything about it. Inspired by this specific game, which brings this full circle. Also did that weird flamethrower thing have the face of a bulldog? Why? Oh it's a HOT-dog... wait a minute that's an enemy in Yoshi's Woolly World! Neat to know that this unused enemy eventually was used (in a Wii U game but still).

[@YoshiHammerBro]

Have to admit, the "StarrySky" background is really nice, would love it as a wallpaper. I honestly wonder why they didn't use it.

[@MisterGlowbro]

it didn’t fit anywhere I presume.

[@TheRealMerbirb]

14:31 I believe that's an effect used for when something such as dirt or sand is directly above--or acting as--the ceiling. You'll notice it's called "dust", which would fit with the tiny particles that rain down, rather than tiny shooting stars.

[@forgado7396]

the one where you glow yellow and is fast like super sonic is when you do a secret thing in the cosmic mario race

[@remedynoneofyourbusiness6]

Mr. Mario Play Thru wat?

[@AurumNMG]

It's true, the behavior is similar, but this effect isn't caused by the object mentioned in this video. Thus, it's unused. Btw, this also exists in SMG2 under the name DashChargeArea.

[@morespeedmorefun6320]

if you crouch at the beginning of a cosmic race and press a as the countdown hits go mario will start running twice his normal speed for around a second. its just something to help with the races also he glows yellow during the boost.

[@k-leb4671]

I reckon that landmine would've been a great game-play aspect. I can imagine a stretch of land in which there's 2 mines in a row with no breathing room, and Mario must triple jump off them to reach somewhere. It would also give another use for the star bits and pointer, as deactivating them with star bits would be very useful for those intimidated by them. There could even be a low passage leading to a secret star that can be only passed by walking over deactivated mines, so if you have no star bits, you can't get the secret star (without getting damaged, at least). It's a hungry luma without the hungry luma.

It was later discovered that the object actually works, you have to use B instead of A. Literally nobody thought to use the B button. So, you are mostly right.

That object was meant to be in a test area I'm assuming. So maybe originally the input for grabbing those was b. Then they changed it to a!

"HomePlanet" looks really interesting, was a final version used anywhere or was it completely scrapped? I don't remember ever seeing during normal gameplay.

My Theory on revolvingway is it was meant to test the interact feature with motion control. It has the same checkered pattern as you would see in test rooms. And they are used to test as the name inscribed. It also could also be an unfinished object.

[@souleaterevans4589]

12:21 The "DashChargeCylinder" may have actually been used in the game. If you press A in a cosmic race right as it starts, you get a dash with that same effect. I'm not sure if it's an AoE like this one, but it's possible that they may have used that to make the dash work.

[@dannywaving]

[@guerht]

This doesn't apply all the time, but for huge projects like Super Mario Galaxy, attempting to delete unnecessary/unused code may break the game, and it may take a very long time to debug, so developers tend not to bother too much with it.

@@AurumNMG it's probably unused due to it being left over from the developer's first attempt at figuring out how to get the reflective effect as well as they could. Having a separate model for the water was their first idea, whereas making a mirror effect on the planet itself came later.

14:22 looks like just a basic particle system the devs were creating as a base object. Stuff like the bubble streams and coin collecting visuals were probably based off that original object.

DashChargecylinder actually was used. Its used when you get a head start in a race with cosmic mario.

Ok, I’m saying it now……….. I want a Super Mario Galaxy Maker! Both MG1 and 2 are so intriguing in its styles that it’s so hard to just not say, “I would _really_ love to miss with this style of game” like the closes we got was this! Mario Galaxy is one of my favorites visual wise cause it takes the regular games and twist it on their heads, and this masterpiece comes out! Mario Galaxy will always be, one of the rare gems in a world where creativity was at one of the peaks in games (not saying it was the only time cause now their are some freaking creative games!)
