Super Mario Galaxy has 4 Cosmic Comet missions in the game: Honeyhive Galaxy, Freezeflame Galaxy, Gold Leaf Galaxy, and Sea Slide Galaxy. At these stages Mario faces off against Cosmic Mario in a race to the star. But deep within the files is parts of an unused, 5th race that was eventually pulled from the game. This is the story of Space Junk Galaxy's unused race and the efforts of one modder to restore what was lost.

Shoutouts to Aurum for piecing this lost race of Mario Galaxy history back together!
First
Awesome Video Swankybox
Hi
nice, I’ll have to check out their channel
6th
Since this race is heavily themed with the pull-stars, it's possible that they scrapped this version as they wanted to save that gimmick for the "Spooky Speedster" level instead.
Oh, good point! ^^ True, I can imagine!
Or just because they liked the time comet version more
thats a good thought
It could also be that they wanted to avoid having Cosmic Mario use pull stars or launch stars, seeing as those aren't involved with any of the other races. It might have needed separate rules for their animations to be triggered by something other than the player.
It was a lot of fun to revisit this old discovery! Thank you for the shoutouts and for featuring my story in the video :)
Thank you for all you have done for Super Mario Galaxy 1 + 2!
hi
bro i used to watch you wtf?? i completely forgot you existed
Thank you so much for your contribution to mario galaxy community
@@SwankyBox can I ask you something?
Yeah this definitely would’ve been too hard. I remember struggling with the Spooky Speedster as a kid, so I definitely would not have been able to finish this race and unlock Luigi for a while. And imagine how difficult Cosmic Luigi would’ve been!
So I'm not the only one who rage quit those extra races and challenges.. good to know LOL
1st
Hi
God those races were challenging
Def one
For me I hate the motion control stages
knowing that theres a toad forgotten in the space *forever*
thats just straight terrifying
@Robertoxln Ubillux not really since there's so many of them, the only difference is the colors and toadette. So what's losing one toad, you won't notice it's gone.
@@zombie1013 I think the terrifying detail would be imagining it from that toad's perspective. Your take on it only expands on that further lol.
@@rugalbernstein5913 now that you mention it, yeah, you're right. They won't notice Wich makes things worse.
Luckily, there would be a happy ending for them. At the end of the game, the galaxy is reborn and many different friends/foes from all of the galaxies (Even enemies that you've killed) all come together. It's safe to say that it would include that Toad, so the only downside would be trauma
I love that Mario Galaxy content is still produced all these years later.... Such an amazing game! Great video too, early to it for a change. :)
I mean… people still make original Super Mario Bros content 36 years later, it’s not that impressive lol
@@Sedwards3795 To be fair I just said that I love content is still being made, i didn't say that it was a surprise or anything.
Same, I really love it
Mario Galaxy feels so much more than just a Mario game and I really hope future titles keep this majestic formula in mind
Mario Galaxy is awesome
sunshine is better
It really was the pinnancial of 3d Mario, to me anyways. Unfortunately, I look at how they handle their RPGS, and I don't have much confidence. Heck, even the sequel had a more lighthearted sillier tone compared to the first's more serious melancholic mood.
@@largeboi4678 😂
@@TheKoloradoShow nostalgia merchant
"Mario becomes full of existential dread as his reality collapses"
On the bright side, he doesn't know his every action is being controlled by a higher being who can wipe out his entire existence just by accidently spilling some water on a rectangular device...
i remember one time when i was younger, I was playing Galaxy when i saw Good Egg Galaxy had a Cosmic Mario Comet. When I selected it the game crashed for... obvious reasons. I've always wondered why that happened lmao
I guess you can call this race "space junk" since nintendo threw it away
I was honestly thinking that this was going to be about some race between 12 Super Mario Galaxy players that took 8 years because it was an hacked version that made the game full on kaizo.
Yay another Mario Galaxy video! Always enjoy these.
Also Aurum is a god tier modder so yes you should all check him out! B)
Hi SPG64
I'm glad Super Mario Galaxy is still relevant today, it just too good of a game to forget
As a kid I loved the races! However I always got mad when I lost because I wasn't that good 😅. However the cosmic clones was a NIGHTMARE. Though I'm glad I pushed my way through because in the end, I completed my favorite game to this day. Thanks Swanky. 😁
As a game developer I think it's funny that this got so much attention, when it easily could've been something like: manager says, "I want to see some quick race prototypes by tomorrow's dailies." A couple devs put a ton of effort into creating what have become the 4 races we have, while one dev, probably already devoted to another project, only had time to put a half hearted effort into this one. Next day his gets cut because it's simply not as engaging. Now that throwaway the developer probably has no memory of is "THE MARIO RACE NO ONE EVER COMPLETED........"
That's no ordinary rocketship, that's the S.S. Dolphin 2!
What a cool Easter egg!
You know the video was good when at the end I was like "oh that's the end of the video?" no pauses or nothing, always keeps me interested in watching more
I already knew what this was gonna be about just by the thumbnail.
I find it cool how Swanky keeps finding ways to return back to Mario Galaxy (and Luigi's Mansion for that matter).
Be it strange experiments and behaviours of the game, unused content, or just funny bits to enjoy.
Keep the good work, man.
Me, seeing thumbnail: Oh hey, is that the Cosmic Mario Pullstar race? Dude, I loved that star!.. Wait, uncompleted?..
After seeing video: ...wait WHAT THE HELL KINDA SUPER MARIO GALAXY IS PERSONALIZED SHIT DID I PLAY AS A KID?!
OMG I FEEL THE SAME
Mario Galaxy had so many amazing levels, but this secret race beats them all in design by far. The scrapped area is so out of order, but it has some form of harmony in the chaos.
I think it would be pretty cool jumping from junk to junk in space in a race
I love these types of videos. Unluckily at the time, I was too busy with work and being a new father, so unfortunately don't have nostalgia (or at least as much) for this game. Is there anything like this in Mario 64? Scraped levels, stars, routes etc?
This may be old, but also pretty neat! After recording each of the races a few times over recently, I've been wondering quite a bit how they settled on what they did, and this gives a lot of insight!
Oh wow this is so fascinating. Thank you all involved for sharing this lost race.
“What’s your favorite Mario Galaxy Level?”
“The one with good music”
😐
So all of them?
@Faelan McKenna I liked the one with the starbits
@@specterx2135 I liked the ones that existed, those were all cool
@@mr.cereal599 Yes
Maybe they meant the Gusty Garden Galaxy?
0:14 Me whenever I watch a SwankyBox video
Let’s go more swankybox
Another Mario Galaxy video from Swanky LET'S A GOOO
0:45 that was such a smooth transition
I remember sea slide's cosmic Luigi race. It was really hard. You had to actually be freame-perfect to win
Gakacy is my favourite game ever. Thanks for continuing to make videos on it!
Gakaxy is the best game
THANK YOU! I missed your Mario videos so much! THANK YOU!😄😄
It's not like I DISLIKED your delta rune theories. I just think your Mario videos are better.
I would like this video, but I don't want to ruin the lucky number.
I can't be the only one that felt like there were more cosmic clone stars, right? It's always felt that way.
I love these super Mario Galaxy videos ❤️
I love your mario galaxy videos!!
I still play the galaxy series til this day. I never get bored. True classics
This Galaxy has always scared me but the music was always so soothing it sounds weird but you get the point
That transition was beautiful
So cool, I love seeing Mario Galaxy content
5:14 is when the race starts
Super Mario galaxy was definitely one of my favorites, good to see this
Awesome video SwankyBox
Neat video! Thanks for uploading!
This feels so familiar. Almost like I've played it before. I used to have all sorts of crazy dreams about this game when I was younger, so it might have been that.
when we needed it best, the mario galaxy series cane back
It's crazy, what people can find in the files of games
When I replayed the game for the 1st time i got to space junk 1 and thought, huh, i thought there was a race here.
Now i find out a few years later and it was a scrapped thing.
Either my version glitched or something OR my brain is just amazing
I love the way these vidieos are ^-^
Mario, zardys maze, Ect+
Its all A-MAZE-ING
I can't believe I finally already know about something you made a video about
i love scrapped things being remade
Space junk gallexy is a level that when I look out to space I get a weird empty feeling
i have been in love with this channel since the first undertale theory videos, wow
This was way better then just another speedrun
that's wild swanky man
Cosmic Mario definitely went out of this world with this one, ay?
So this one time in galaxy 1 i killed bowser in the final fight but when i killed him i didnt get the cutscene
It's crazy how we keep finding new stuff in games years later
I wonder if cosmic mario's movements were recorded manually. It would explain the pauses - maybe the devs wanted to make the race easier to beat, and during development just paused instead of taking a longer route
This is crazy, every time I’ve played through galaxy I remember thinking that I missed something because I swore there was a cosmic comet
Gosh, I haven't played the Galaxy games in years. Those games were great but Super Mario Sunshine will be always be my favourite. It would be cool to uncover more hidden things in that game. 🙂
The intro sentences remind me of Tetrabitgaming. Finding secrets and unused content/stuff you didn't know about a game is really interesting.
I think the reason for Cosmic Mario occasionally stopping in place was to allow time for players to catch up, as well as allow for the possibility of a harder Cosmic Luigi race where he wouldn't stop in place. Either way, I think I do understand why this was cut, because between the pathway being mostly fixed meaning you don't have too many options for shortcuts to get the upper hand on Cosmic Mario (while also not leaving many options for creating a harder Cosmic Luigi race), and the inconsistency with pull stars like you mentioned in the video (especially near the home stretch where you could potentially get stuck on the level geometry), this level just wasn't feasible for a balanced race.
There is actually a shortcut in the 2d pull star section, which was probably the intended way of beating the race
What a way to push a product, you wouldn't lose it in space I promise
And that's why putting on my bunny ears and winning the lost race will always be one of my Pixel Portals.
Wow that's so interesting I love this channel I'll watch them for ever :^)
One of my favorite Mario animations at 3:44
After 8 years in development, we hope it was worth the wait
Cosmic Mario should be really slow on the pull stars.
I love that this is a thing even if it took 8 years to find out about it
Incredible
Thanks Swanky!
4:53 As if Super Mario Galaxy's levels aren't already linear.
Weird thought but it looks like cosmic Marios frequent stops looks as if he's just taking in the surroundings and staring at things before moving on
1:56 “so make sure you win “
Bruh
I’ve never liked space junk but the music is so nostalgic brings you back if you know what I mean
This may so8nd stupid, but I played both Super Mario Galaxy'S a lot in my child times (played them to 100%) and I could swear that I played that exact mission you told about in my childhood.
Interesting find and awesome video. Still hoping for a Galaxy 3. I wonder if it's ever going to happen?
Probably not
I was just about to visit space junk galaxy! What a great timing! Now I know which wallet to take with me!
Nintendo needs to make a Super Mario Galaxy 3. My eyes would water if I saw a teaser for the third game.
Wait a minute, I could have sworn I played this race when I played this game. I clearly remember losing all the time during this race and destroying controllers because I could never beat this race. I even remember getting stuck at the end of the race multiple times because of those spider things would always get in my way and cause me the race or the camera bugging out when going over that last hump and also causing the race to end in a loss.
Hi Swanky, not sure if you tried this (I didn’t find the TH-cam search for this), but have you tried making the floor in super Mario 64 lava and seeing if it’s possible to beat it? Though I guess you’d have to define what a “floor” is first. Would be interesting though
8 years later: Ekster
ps: road to 400, can ya help me out?
i love mario galaxy vids
I remember playing that race from the honey hive galaxy for weeks as a kid trying to beat that level lol good times
I swear galaxy has more of these crazy secrets than any other game
Cosmic Luigi would just be a TAS in this. That’s why he wasn’t included.
I love space junk galaxy’s music
I've been playing this game for the past few weeks to get all the stars bc i never got to play it before the switch import and its been a lot of fun but also very painful.
I hope you make a story about the origin of the zardy maze with some story and note
I love space junk galaxy it has the best soundtrack
I thought this was going to be another "The hardest 3 one ups to get in Mario Galaxy 2" scenario, but pleasently it was not and was actually worthwhile.
This is just me personally, but I'm kind of glad this got cut. That looks like a really awful cosmic race. But I'm glad we found it again. It's still kind of cool even though I would probably never enjoy playing it myself.
O imagine the Luigi one might be just the clone not stopping.
Shadow Mario basks in the glory of space
I thought I wasn't the only one who hated that galaxy. I hated the slow linear movement and would always try to get past it as fast as possible.
The Ultimate Race
I never seen this race but I enjoyed it
