[Music] Super Mario Galaxy is one of my favorite game of all time and I play it at least once every year that's how good I think it is but for this year's playthrough I decided to try something different can I beat it without touching a single coin the rules are simple we are going to be playing the original super mario galaxy game for the Wii and attempt to get to the final Bowser fight and the freedom and all of this without touching one of those dirty yellow coins you see this lovely coin counter down there well we want this thing to remain at zero every time you enter a stage you can see your coin high-score down there and this will be used at the end to see if we got zero coins everywhere to get to the final Bowser fight you need to get sixty stars so this will be the amount we want to get now that everything has been set let's just jump into it the game starts off with this beautiful intro level where Mario happily runs setting toward Peach's castle and even though Bowser ends up breaking everything with his flying airships there are no coins in here so we don't have to worry about it now that Princess Peach has been finally captured again and Mario's been owned by this lovely magic koopa it's time to catch bunnies in the Gateway to complete this part you'll need to catch all of the three golden bunnies and the first one is really easy to get got to get the second one to appear you have to jump in this crater which coincidentally contains one single coin the trick here is to jump in the crater from the very side of it so that when you get teleported back out the coin won't be collected besides that avoid the few coins here and there and you'll get to meet the lovely Rosalina and her luma friend which will give you your very first ability the spin attack enter the lounge star to reach the very first level of the game and to be fair it doesn't have that many coins just make sure to break the crystals with the star shards and not those ones with coins inside of the and you'll be all good push all of those yellow switches to get your very first grand star and this will unlock the terrace and the first couple of planets let's go get some stars shall we first up is the good egg galaxy and the first star in here doesn't contain that many coins along the way although you meet this prankster luma who will tell you the most useless tip ever in any video games I've played in my entire life come on bro what is that garbage tip collecting coins before breaking the egg and fighting Dino piranha I suggest you break of the coin crystals so that the coins disappear so this will be helpful to avoid picking them up by accident while finding the bus getting the second star in here will not be very difficult although this level does feature a 2d segment containing a couple of coins but if you're being careful and you're paying attention to the arrows on the wall telling you which way the gravity shifts this won't be a problem this next star is also very easy to get get on top of the house with a couple of wall jumps and spin jumps to avoid most of the level and then play the level normally until you reach King Caliente which just requires you to spin to send back two projectiles spits with you yeah easy star next up is the honey hive galaxy land of the bees and bee Mario there's going to be lots of coins on those floating flowers but thankfully we can just give them by walking underneath be careful when climbing the honeycomb wall as there are a few evil coins here and there collect the star shards on the high Queen and that's it the next star in this galaxy is also pretty easy to collect having very few dangerous coins on your path just make sure to aim for the sides when falling down this hole there as it does contain one evil coin very reminiscent of the coin in the crater from before the final star will get in here is a bus battle against this green beetle but besides this lowly coin on the honeycomb there there's nothing that stands in your way flips which galaxies necks and all you need to do in here is to step foot on every platform to turn it yellow there is a grand total of two coins in this galaxy and both of them are fairly easy to judge so just be careful go around them and that's it next up loop-the-loop galaxy most of the coins in here are located on the tutorial part of the level but if you stick to the very right you'll be able to dodge them all during the actual course there's going to be coins here and there on the left or on the right but you can just thankfully slow down a bit and move around them and that's it welcome to Bowser Jr's robot reactor a level which doesn't contain any coins so you'll be beating this one in a couple of minutes tub when the second grand star in hand will unlock their fountain and plenty more galaxies to explore but just before we get there let's feed this hungry luma and visit the sweet sweet galaxy a delicious looking world filled with candies there's a couple of coins that stand in your way on those moving platforms throughout the stage but if you take your time and use your spin jumps you'll make it to the end without touching a single coin space junk galaxy is up and this level introduces the pool stars those blue things that you have to point your cursor at to guide Mario as you can see there's a couple of coins in our way but we can just use the momentum from the pull star to fly far enough to dodge them this second section is actually a little bit more difficult as your Pulstar options are far more limited but you can dodge most of them up until this part here it seems like a dead end at first but after a couple of tries I managed to find a way to make it pass just use those pull stars to get a lot of speed and aim for that one all the way over there on the back and you clear all of those ugly coins nice this next section with the platform's that appear as you walk on them doesn't have a single coin so the star is yours the second star in this galaxy is quite the easy one as all you need to do is to use the Koopa shell to defeat Camela for the third star you'll get to use the sling pots to throw Mario around and do not be too afraid of the coins in your way as you can basically slay Mario pretty much anywhere that's close to where you'd usually land and a gravity will pull you back the fight against tehran tux is very annoying you see those stone slabs contain one coin each and there are some coins on the spiderweb all around the stage so when you use the sling cuts to attack the bus the chances of you touching one or more coins are super high what I recommend doing is breaking all of the stone slabs and then using your Wii pointer to get rid of the coin stuck on the spiderweb before the actual fight because then you'll be able to only focus on beating the bus and won't have to worry about anything happening mid-fight this next star is a prankster comet and it's a speedy one so that gives us four minutes to complete the level from before except this time there's a lot more coins in the path thankfully the pool star trick from before is still working here and we'll guide you to the final part which now features a whole lot of coins making this a little bit more difficult use long jumps spin jobs and backflips to get the five silver stars once again and that's it the final star will get in this galaxy is this one where you have to jump on goombas on a planet shape like a Yoshi head rolling green galaxies up and this one wants us to jump on the rolling ball and guide it using the lovely motion controls sadly you'll soon reach this part where you usually have to go down the hole but there's a couple of coins in the way I did try to jump from around the platform to try to reach the metal rails underneath it but I never managed to do it it might be possible who knows let's just skip it enter battle rock galaxy a galaxy full of those platforms you can walk under including this moving one which forces you to dodge incoming cannonballs there's a couple of coins here and there but this will be easily completed the second star in here gives nuba bombs that you can use to blow up things let's use them to blow up the trash on this planet for an easy star the next star wants us to use the bomb to free this little luma buddy and then he transforms into a lounge star for us to use and oh that was a trap bad luma to be honest I tried to swing the Wii Remote and avoid those three coins up above many times but I guess this is a pixel-perfect trick or it's just plain that possible because no matter what I did I always collect the stars even if I shake at the perfect timing or just shake the Wii Remote like a mad lad nothing works so we'll just have to move on to another star hurry-scurry galaxy is where will next go and this one has a grand total of zero coins Bowser's star reactor is up and there's a couple of annoying coins located right at the beginning that you have to dodge I had trouble making Mario walk in a straight line on this curved path so my strategy was to Crouch walk around them once that is done this 2d section also contains a couple of bad coins but we can avoid all of them by being extra careful in our jumps watch out for the coins while fighting Bowser and this next grand star will be yours bubble breeze galaxy is up and this one requires us to blow air at Mario's bubble to guide him in this maze the first part of the level does contain coins but you can usually just go around them so no worries the second part however isn't that nice to us you see this bat there is way too tight for us to go through without grabbing those coins with Mario's bubble and I even try to triple jump above the whole section but there's an invisible wall preventing us from doing so this one's not possible let's just go to beach ball galaxy instead where we have to collect star shards that are located underwater it's actually surprisingly simple to get them all without touching a single coin once you reach this part you're supposed to hit those switches to create wooden platforms allowing you to go to the top but this last platform is a problem you see you usually just wall jump to the top but it's full of gross coins so we can't do that now thankfully we can just use a backflip to wall to spin jump to reach it up and the star ii star in here is really easy all you need to do is find that penguin and steal his golden shell to get the star the final star in here just requires you to break this wall using a shell to then go inside the cavern break those boxes to get to the other side of the fence but watch out for the coin inside that single one wait for it to disappear and you'll reach this final part which doesn't contain any dangerous coins and that's it ghostly galaxies up and make sure to hug the wall when dodging this big Chain Chomp as you don't want to touch those lucky coins on this side the only annoying part is over there when you get the boom mushroom you have to go through that narrow hallway without touching those coins and hitting the walls make Mario bounce everywhere so you really have to be extra careful but this can be done scare Luigi and then get his star the second one in here requires you to beat this boot in a race and thankfully there are no coins in here so you won't have any problem whatsoever the final star has this one part with the star shards and the sling putts which looks pretty scary at first because it looks like you have to use the star over there to collect those two coins and then collect the blue shard over there but you know just sling Mario over it all using the sling cut there and you'll get it without any issue Bowser Jr's airship Armada is up and this one doesn't have any dangerous coins so that's an easy win we now have access to the bedroom and plenty of new galaxies so let's start with the gusty garden galaxies one of my favorite galaxies because of its music this first star will require you to catch a bunny once again and no worries as there won't be a single coin that stands between you and the star for the second star in here you'll also be pleased to learn that there are not a lot of coins on your wait there's a couple of coins on this metallic planet but it's very easy to just go around them for the third and final star in here there's a little bit more annoying coins but once again even though they prevent you from moving anywhere you want you can still manage to use gravity to your advantage and get to the end of the level and collect the star let's move - freeze flame galaxy and the first star will get in here will force us to climb up the mountain using ice Mario but thankfully there won't need that many coins on our way once you reach the top it's time to fight the bus pay around boom - dodge those two coins on the way just do a backflip and once you're up there just keep attacking the enemy so that it never pushes you down and this star will be yours this second star will take place in the flaming hot part of this galaxy there's a couple of coins here and there especially in the boxes that you break with fire Mario but they're quite easy to dodge no the real challenge comes from this part here you're supposed to light up the torches to create a wall jumping path up above but as you can see the path is filled with filthy coins I try to find other ways to go up there besides the wall jumping spot but this didn't go so well eventually I just decided to try the wall jumps but from the very edge of the walls and would you look at that it's actually possible to do the wall jumps without touching the coins Oh after that there's no more challenge so it's an easy star the third star in this galaxy is also super easy to get as there's a grand total of two coins while ice skating over there dusty dune galaxy is up and it does have a couple of coins on the way to the first star but none that are really annoying there's this second part of the level that takes place in a 2d section that's a little bit stressful but you can avoid all the coins with careful jumps this final section there does contain coins but you can slide down the walls without touching any of them so no worries the second star forces us to defeat tons of pokies on this round arena featuring this one single coin in the middle defeating the pokies is easy and everything but sadly the lounge star appears on top of a coin and you guessed it we automatically collect this coin when using it yep this is the end of this galaxy so let's move to another one by feeding this hungry luma we get access to bigmouth galaxy which is an underwater galaxy where you have to swim to go grab a golden she'll and use it on the golden treasure chest thankfully this is a piece of cake as there are no dangerous coins at all time to face of Bowser a second time by going through Bowser's Dark Matter plant the beginning of the level forces you to be super careful when going up those platforms as they are very narrow and there's ugly coins all over them once that is done you reach this 2d segment which is very annoying basically gravity shifts in the direction of the arrows on the back wall so you'll have to constantly move to avoid falling down while dodging those pesky coins on the way this next section has lots of them but you can literally just hide down there to avoid them all this second 2d segment is the problematic one you see you constantly have to move sides on that platform or else you fall in this dark matter and lose a life at first it's not really a problem up until this part with the annoying coins they're in the way and I try to avoid them many times but it's really difficult and since their gravity shifts if you jump too high or touch another gravity wall you'll be very limited in your movement options I ended up dodging them with a very weird gravity shifting wall jump don't ask me how but it worked this second battle against Bowser is just as easy as the first one and with that in mind this next grand star is ours and we can now access the engine-room gold leaf galaxy is up and as you can see this galaxy is very similar to the honey hive galaxy getting the first star won't be much of a challenge as all you have to do is get those blue shards to then reach this planet where you have to capture this lonely rabbit make sure to avoid the coin scatter here and there and that's pretty much all there is to it the second star will force you to use the Cata quick enemies to reach high grounds just make sure there aren't any coins up above and you'll be all good the final start here wants you to use be Mario to reach the top while avoiding those rainy clouds and as you'll soon realize there aren't any coins on your way up there so it's pretty easy next up is the see slide galaxy and the first and second star are pretty much the same thing forcing you to raise the char and some penguins underwater and to be fair the only coins in here are located on those air bubbles but you can easily just go back to the surface and get a breather and you'll never drown to get your final star you'll need to get those silver stars scattered all over the place and while there are some coins here and there none will be a real problem for this quest tie time Galaxy is our next stop and to get the first star you'll have to make your way to the robot at the N and along the way there are going to be a couple of coins but you can usually just use a gravity to your advantage to dodge them all once you get the infamous spring mario bar up things will get a little more stressful mainly because this far up is complete total garbage if you are timing your jump right you'll be okay though the second star will be easily obtained as there are no coins on those platforms where you have to go to collect the silver stars and finally you'll have to do more annoying spring Mario platforming to get the third star but once again just be extra careful and this won't be a problem Bowser Jr's lava reactor is up and while this one has a couple of coins none of them are in your way and the same thing applies to the bus fight there are a couple of coins on the platform's around you but if you're just being smart about it you won't have to worry with this next grand star in hand we can now explore the garden deep dark galaxy is going to be our first up and this first star will be easy to get basically you just have to swim underwater up until you reach the secret ghost ship it expect coins in your way but there's none so it's a very easy star the second one starts with you fighting an underground gunner and once that is done you'll be able to fly to this planet which just like a balloon slowly loses air and gets smaller and smaller revealing coins of the process but you know nothing to worry about once you obtain the ice flower you have to jump on those water fountains to get up there so make sure to avoid the first and fourth fountains as they do feature a dirty coin on top of them the rest of the level is fairly simple your biggest enemy for the final star and going to be that shark noir the coins no it's going to be the horrible camera controls oh my gosh this is terrible anyways with another star in hand we can now move on to the next level dreadnought galaxy wants you to infiltrate the space ship and to do so you have to eliminate some enemies especially those goombas wearing helmets to defeat them you'll have to jump on them and when you defeat an enemy that way it gives out a coin so make sure that you are ready to spin jump out of there to avoid collecting it the second star in here does have one tricky 2d section that contains a couple of coins but if you're being smart about it you'll be able to avoid all of those coins on the way and get your star the third star does feature this pull star section where you'll find two coins but you can't just go around them to feed the top man bus and this galaxy will be done matters splatter galaxy is up and there are going to be a couple of coins on your way to the star but you can usually just go around them so this won't be a problem melty molten galaxies next and this one contains a lot of fireballs and lava and has this section that contains some very annoying coins there's actually no way of getting up there using that path but thankfully you can just go around the corner and climb from over there to dodge them dodge the lava and collect the Silver Stars for an easy star the second one we'll get in here does require you to use both stars while dodging a couple of coins here and there but this will be a problem while going up the sinking Rock you've eventually reached this part where you're supposed to wall jump your way to safety but with those coins being in your way just use the hot burning lava to your advantage to reach the star at the top now this next star looks very promising as you can see getting to this part is the easy thing as there's only a few coins that stands on your way but once you get there here's the surprise it's a rolling star hooray for motion controls once more this first part can be skipped by jumping on the floating platform but then comes the rotating platforms you'll have to avoid falling in the holes avoid those coins at the same time which is easier said than done go slowly around everything up until this final part and wait for the big lava rock to be right in front of you to make the job and there we go thankfully the final star will get in here will be super easy to obtain the only coins that could be a problem being the one those enemies gave out when they're defeated but if you move out of the way you'll reach the bus defeat him and get your star sand spiral galaxies' next and this one is super easy grab the boob powerup and avoid the few coins located on your way and you'll quickly reach the star at the end sling pod galaxy was a little bit tricky but not because of the coins no mainly because I can seem to aim those things at all be careful during the Polestar section and the star will be easily obtained drip-drop galaxy wants us to use the green shell to defeat all of the eels so a couple of 360noscope shots will do the trick just fine and this star will be ours well would you look at that we now have 60 stars and the comet observatory has full power time to defeat Bowser once and for all Bowser's galaxy reactor does contain a couple of coins that stands in your way so you have to be extra careful this final section is quite annoying though as you're constantly being attacked by Bullet bills and Banzai beers which restrict your movement options and now you have the coins on your way just plan your jumps and you'll make it it's now time for the final battle which just like the previous ones is quite easy just watch out for the healing coins that are located on all of the planets you'll fight on and there we go Bowser is defeated and the final grand star is ours well if we did it we have saved the princess defeated Bowser and restored peace to the whole universe so is it possible to beat Super Mario Galaxy without touching a single coin well yes yes and it's actually pretty easy let's be real this game doesn't have a whole lot of coins so it's super easy to just go around them and when a galaxy cannot be completed we can just move on to the next one and keep on playing and you might have noticed that during this quest I barely did any prankster comets as I wanted to explore as many galaxies as possible and let me tell you there are even more galaxies I didn't set foot on thanks a lot for watching this video make sure to hit the
