Not sure how long this will last, but someone has managed to grab 2 minutes of gameplay footage for Super Mario Galaxy 2, most likely from yesterday's Nintendo Summit.

First off, the game is gorgeous, showing off what the graphical capabilities of the Wii and reminding us that yes Nintendo makes great looking games too. Not to mention, the use of Yoshi in a 3D world and the new drill feature makes for brand new 3D platforming experiences that we have all come to expect from our favorite Italian plumber.

Look for Super Mario Galaxy 2 on May 23rd, 2010.

... Yoshi -- please be useful and used often like you were in Super Mario World and not just present for less than ten levels out of the entire game for fan service (NSMBWii, I speak to you directly!). I have faith, though. It's Galaxy. Trailer and gameplay so good it makes me pick up the original again. I eagerly await wasting nine hours of my life tackling another star like "Luigi's Purple Coins". *shudder*
