"Make Mario a Star" is the first mission of the Mario Squared Galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy 2 and its Nintendo Switch port.

Mission[edit]

To complete this mission, the player has to activate all of the Flipswitch Panels found on the 8-Bit Mario Planet Half to make a complete 8-bit Mario. The player must avoid Li'l Cinders and the lava while doing so. After all the Flipswitch Panels are yellow, a Power Star appears on the platform where the player first landed. The Comet Medal can be found on the far left on this Planet.

Naming[edit]

"Make Mario a Star" is a double entendre utilizing the multiple meanings of the words "make" and "star": it can interpreted as both "create a Power Star for Mario" and "turn Mario into a famous person".

Names in other languages[edit]

In the Japanese, Chinese, and Korean versions, when Luigi is selected as a playable character, the subtitle "Mario on Mario" is changed to "Luigi on Mario". This also matches the full title in those languages for "Mario Meets Mario" from Super Mario Galaxy.
