Anyone tried this move thing yet?

[Backfall]

I found this pretty convienient move in Super Mario Galaxy, but it's pretty tricky to pull of if you're a beginner of using the ground pound.
jump up, spin and in the VERY middle of the spin, press Z and tilt the diretion you want and SLAM!!!!!

Dude from another forum. I haven't tried this yet. What does he mean by "SLAM!!!!"?

:yikes:

 

[thas]

by slam the person mean the ground pound. i didnt think this was something new.

 

[Backfall]

You mean this is just a normal Ground Pound?!

 

[adsertif12]

Would that be called the ground pound, but if it isn't awesome discovery, I'll try it soon!!!!

 

[marioguy2]

its called the cosmic ground pound ive tried it.

 

[Backfall]

Cosmic Ground Pound?
WHAT?

How is it any different from a regular Ground Pound?
What the heck I'm just gonna try it now!

 

[no1cubehead]

i think it homes in to the nearest enemy in the direction you pressed.

 

[adsertif12]

its called the cosmic ground pound ive tried it.

Oh I didn't see the spin part I just tried it, awesome move looks really cool!!!

 

[George]

I gotta try this lol.

 

[Backfall]

Ok I just tried this - its real!
Just follow what that guy said and you'll go higher while jumping for the Ground Pound, and you'll land in a cool fashion. And yes, it does indeed home in the direction of enemies (I tried it only against a koopa). Also it can break large numbers of Ground Pound blocks in ONE hit.

EDIT: I found what its called.

Triple-Flip Gargantuan Ground Pound: This one is one of my favorites. To do this, just jump in the air and spin but before you finish spinning in mid-air, do a ground pound and whoever your using will do a triple flip while bobbing left and right and land with their hands in the air and a massive ground pound. Pretty cool trick.

THERE!

Lol... I opened a thread about this a month ago and I got no responses.

Pretty useful

I've done this loads of times and its really usefull.

Its great for using when you have low health and dun wanna risk a frontal attack, but still get lifes. It's cool that they stuck this in the game

I found this by myself and its awesome

 

[emtee23]

I found this myself aswell and it is a good move, I like the fact it homes in.

It makes it easier to get coins too. I always used to use the spin and punt move and get 3 star-bits but with this move I can get coins easily when I'm low on health. You know longer have to line things up perfectly. Just Jump Spin Pound.
