For some odd reason, as seen screenshots of ''Super Mario Galaxy'', the Giant Space Spider has wings. Could it be a Spiderfly? Only ''Super Mario Galaxy'''s future release will tell why [[Shigeru Miyamoto|Miyamoto]] decided that this boss should have wings.

The Colossal Scuttle Bug; Mario is battling it inside the Sticky Planet.

The Colossal Scuttle Bug is one of the bosses in Super Mario Galaxy. It is found wrapped up in a web inside the Sticky Planet and can be reached via the Front Route in the Super Mario Galaxy demo.

Mario gets to it by using a Wobble Launcher to break the shell off of the Sticky Planet, revealing its web and the spider in a hunk of ice. Mario then must use another Wobble Launcher to tear the web and free the spider, then battle it.

Combat

The Space Spider spitting poison.

The spider first spits green goopy acid or poison at Mario, which stings him and drops his health by one point. Then, after the spider has been damaged, it shoots the acid out of four of its five red glowing bumps on its skin, which is harder to evade.

To defeat the spider, Mario must use Wobble Launchers and throw himself at the red glowing buttons to pop them, then the spider will fall upside down, revealing three more red bumps on its underbelly. If Mario pops all of them, the spider will come back onto its feet and attack faster. If Mario repeats the procedure one more time, the spider will fall through its web and go flying into space, revealing a Star.

Outlook

Anybody who has played Super Mario 64 or New Super Mario Bros. knows that this giant spider looks like a giant, alien Scuttle Bug.

It Has Wings?

For some odd reason, as seen screenshots of Super Mario Galaxy, the Colossal Scuttle Bug has wings. Could it be a Spiderfly? Only Super Mario Galaxy's future release will tell why Miyamoto decided that this boss should have wings.
