The Boss Blitz Galaxy is a galaxy in the game Super Mario Galaxy 2. In this galaxy, five bosses from the game Super Mario Galaxy, the game's predecessor, are fought. This galaxy was brought back in Super Mario 3D World with the same name.
Missions[]
Throwback Throwdown[]
Mario must defeat Dino Piranha, King Kaliente, Major Burrows, Bouldergeist and Fiery Dino Piranha in succession.
Throwback Throwdown Speed Run[]
Similar to the first mission except for one modification: time is limited to 5 minutes. This mission is only accessible, unless already completed, if a Speedy Comet is in orbit.
Green Star Missions[]
Both of the Green Stars are found in Throwback Throwdown.
Green Star 1[]
This Green Star is found beside the tree on Major Burrows's Planet.
Green Star 2[]
This Green Star is behind Bouldergeist's Arena. Mario will have to fall off to get it and be careful not to go in the Black Hole.
Layout[]
Dino Piranha's Planet[]
This planet looks exactly like it does in the original Super Mario Galaxy. Dino Piranha is fought how he is in the original too; go behind him and spin on his tail four times.
King Kaliente's Planet[]
This planet also looks like its original. King Kaliente is also fought in the same way; by spinning on the coconuts in a back-and-forth chain. However, the Comet Medal and a Life Mushroom are hiding on the bottom of this planet.
Major Burrows's Planet[]
This planet also appears the same as in its predecessor. There are thorny flowers on the bottom of this planet, and Green Star 1 at the top near the tree. Major Burrows is fought the exact same way.
Bouldergeist's Arena[]
Before Bouldergeist are stone platforms that hold a Checkpoint Flag and a Luma Shop (both removed in the comet mission). Bouldergeist is fought in the same way as the original.
Rest Meteor[]
After Bouldergeist is defeated the Launch Star takes Mario here. There is nothing but the next Launch Star, and a Cosmic Spirit that appears to help with the last battle after a certain amount of deaths.
Fiery Dino Piranha's Planet[]
This, and the boss, appear how they do in the original. Once Fiery Dino Piranha is defeated the Power Star will appear.
Trivia[]
- Boss Blitz Galaxy is the very first level/stage in the Super Mario Bros. series to be a glorify Boss Rush, The Gauntlet excluding in that its only becomes a boss rush after the Player(s) has defeat one boss at a time and that they are agents stronger recolored versions of that boss.
- The music has not changed for the bosses except for the galaxy's main music. All five bosses have their original battle themes.
- The concept behind Boss Blitz Galaxy is very reminiscent to Boss Endurance and the Arena/The True Arena, the-two-to-three Modes from another game series made by Nintendo, Kirby, in that they are both boss rush modes.
- When Starship Mario goes near or beside the galaxy on the World Map, it will give off glittering sounds.
- For unknown reasons, Topmaniac does not reappear in this galaxy, despite being fought twice (Four times including the Prankster Comets) in Super Mario Galaxy.
