I think the Diggaleg fight in Galaxy 2 was inspired by the Raphael fight in Yoshi's Island

The whole time I was playing Galaxy, I was thinking of Raphael the Raven.

Very nice work. Yoshi's Island... one of my favorite games from childhood. I'm very glad that remade it on the GBA. I play it regularly and the seguel is pretty good. Your favorite boss is the boss of my favorite world. Yep, World 5.

poor raphael raven, probably my most favorite, but unpopular, unappreciated character in Mario. Awesome work, dude. I love it.

Raphael had that something just like that game *ah* the 16bit era ^^ when the games were meant to be played and not just watched (yes I'm an old hag)

That was also my favorite enemy in that game. Loved to play around with him, rather than just crushing him in a short time.

Aww, it's so cute! Doesn't it make you feel bad for having to kill him?
Gotta love the "moody coloring".

And in the end of the game, you need to beat a baby!
And then they say Nintendo is the 'olitically correct' company...

Awwww, I love him! He was (and still is) my favorite boss!
Lol, I asked the same question, too...I mean, afterall, he is an outerspace character.
Great pic, too! *faves!*

I think all the bosses in Yoshi's Island are terribly awesome. As for me, my favorite boss is the Naval Piranha Plant, but Raphael the Raven is also a VERY good one.
Lovely image!
There's more to do in the Net of Nets!

A fantastic image. Nicely done. He would've been so perfect for Galaxy - his constellation in the background at the very least.

I know! Why wasn't it in Mario Galaxy?! Flip-stomp the pegs to get him! That was one of the coolest bosses in that game. By far my favorite game of all time.

Haha, what a cool and cute interpretation of him, I remember seeing him first in Yoshi's Story, a game I loved at its time.

This is a very striking picture, with the muted background and the very black Raphael.

It's a pity they didn't include him in Galaxy. I think this is the best boss ever in the history of Nintendo, both graphic and concept wise...

paxtin [2008-01-20 00:49:34 +0000 UTC]
That was a very cool boss. Some could even say it might have been the original inspiration for the concept of Mario Galaxy...I dont know if thats really true...But it's a fun thought.

Oh holy gee yes. Totally would have worked in Galaxy. I loved Yoshi's Island, I think I might have to get it for my DS sometime soon.
Cool little image, it captures him just dandily.
