Since the star collection and post-star collection cutscenes in Super Mario Galaxy 2 have an average length of 30 seconds and a full playthrough collects 240 stars, the player spends at least 2 hours per playthrough simply watching Mario collect stars.
@apophis i’ve always had a few gripes with the automap tbh. like being able to see locked door colors is apparently a “cheat” and how the default arrow shape is just a line and seems baked into the engine meaning that on low resolutions you can’t see it unless you’re zoomed right up into it and you can’t easily make a wad to change it
@AppleAmps oh maybe its just my autism? flipping the shapes makes them loose meaning. like it’s just harder to find things. at least just when you first look at it
@AppleAmps i think the main idea is that they’re a little disorienting???

In Super Mario Sunshine, Mario is immune to bees while talking. He will be pushed around by them, but not be harmed while he's engaged in conversation. Note that he is not simply immune to damage - e.g. he will still die to heat stroke while talking. It is specifically bees.
