Super Mario Galaxy

Super Mario Galaxy is a 3D Platformer that was developed and published by Nintendo in 2007 for the Nintendo Wii. It is noted as Scott Wozniak's favorite video game, and appears many times in the Scott The Woz Series.

In Scott The Woz
In Game Collecting, Wozniak mentions how he might want to sell his game collection, just because it was so fun collecting. After this, he said how he would want to keep some items like his original copy of Super Mario Galaxy, because if he sold it he would feel as if he spat in his 10-year old self's face. In Borderline Forever, when Scott Wozniak takes a look through some of his Nintendo games, he talks about Super Mario Galaxy and how it's his favorite. In False Advertising, Wozniak says how the box art of Super Mario Galaxy is misleading because he thought he could fly to the other planets, but instead it just plays a cutscene. The game ended up being his favorite game of all time so he ends up crying a single tear.

In Super Mario Galaxy - Ten Years of Bliss
Wozniak goes back in time 10 years and takes a look back at Super Mario Galaxy, which is noted to be his favorite game of all time. Development of the game was traced back to a tech demo called Mario 128, where the concept of walking on planets was created. The game was revealed at E3 2006 and was planned to be a launch title, though the release was pushed later to November of 2007.

Wozniak recaps the main plot of the game and states how it's story feels cinematic. He comments on how it is one of the best looking and sounding Mario games, based on the visuals and soundtrack. The game is more linear when comparing it to Super Mario 64, but the way it is pulled off makes the game so much more brilliant. The gravity mechanic and controls are spot-on and feel like second-nature to him, and the spin attack works incredibly well. The Wii Remote pointer is used to collect star bits, use pull-stars and sling pods. One negative part are the new power-ups which Wozniak states they aren't that fun to use or they last for a short period of time. He then mentions that cleaning up Gearmo's trash is thr worst part of the entire game.

Wozniak then mentions his favorite moments which include Honeyhive Galaxy, the race against Boo and the Bouldergeist battle in Ghostly Galaxy, the King Kaliente battle in Good Egg Galaxy, Gusty Garden Galaxy, Toy Time Galaxy, the opening section, Rosalina's backstory, Prankster Comets, Luigi, the game difficulty, the Comet Observatory, and the Bowser Battles.

Near the end of the episode, there is a segment called "Why I prefer Galaxy 1 to 2", which explains why Wozniak likes the original Super Mario Galaxy more.
