'''Cosmic Mario''' is a character that appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. His physical shape is identical to [[Mario]], while his outer appearance is blue with stars, resembling space. He also has a high-pitched voice. If Mario enters a [[galaxy]] when a [[Prankster Comet#Cosmic Comet|Cosmic Comet]] is orbiting that galaxy, Cosmic Mario appears at the beginning of the [[level]] and challenges the player to a race. The player must then race through numerous obstacles and reach the [[Power Star]] before Cosmic Mario does. If Cosmic Mario manages to reach the Power Star first, Mario loses a life and must restart the race. Colliding with him during the race causes him to release [[Star Bit]]s.

At the start of a race, if the player holds {{button|wii|Stick}} up, then {{button|wii|Z}} when the timer reaches "2," and then hits {{button|wii|A}} just as the race starts, Mario or [[Luigi]] gets a [[Rocket Start|Start Dash]], shown by a yellow color appearing on Mario/Luigi, shrinking gradually as a marker of the end of this effect.

'''Cosmic Luigi''' also appears, replacing Cosmic Mario when the player plays as Luigi. He is very similar to Cosmic Mario, with the only major difference being that he takes advantage of shortcuts more often and uses a large number of [[Long Jump|long jump]]s, making it faster and harder to beat than his counterpart.

'''Cosmic Mario''' is a character that appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. His physical shape is identical to Mario, while his outer appearance is blue with stars all over, as if he were made out of cosmic matter. He also has an unusually high-pitched voice. If [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] enter a galaxy when a [[Prankster Comet#Cosmic_Comet|Cosmic Comet]] is orbiting a galaxy, Cosmic Mario appears at the beginning at the level and challenges the player to a race. The player must then race through numerous obstacles and reach the finish before Cosmic Mario to earn a [[Power Star]]. If Cosmic Mario manages to reach the Power Star first, Mario will lose a life and must restart the race. Colliding with him during the race causes [[Star Bit]]s to fly out.


If the player is playing as Luigi, Cosmic Luigi will appear in place of Cosmic Mario. Cosmic Luigi utilizes shortcuts and many [[Long Jump (move)|long jump]]s. As a result, he is faster and much more difficult to beat than Cosmic Mario.

*At the start of a race, if the player holds the {{button|wii|Stick}} up, then {{button|wii|Z}} when the timer hits 2, and then hits {{button|wii|A}} just as the race starts, Mario or Luigi will get an extra boost at the beginning of the race, shown by a yellow color appearing on Mario/Luigi, shrinking gradually, being as a marker of the end of the bonus effect. This move is called the [[Rocket Start|Starting Boost]].
*An unused variant of the Cosmic Mario Race in [[Space Junk Galaxy]] is found in the game files. When players start a race, they start at the coordinate 0,0,0, which is the air that they land on the starting planet. Cosmic Mario cannot win on this race, and players still have to use [[Star Chip]]s to unlock a [[Launch Star]], but Cosmic Mario does not need to use the Star Chips to use a Launch Star. Cosmic Mario does not use voice clips in this variant.<ref>
*Cosmic Mario shares its voice clips with the [[Cosmic Clones]].

*Cosmic Mario/Cosmic Luigi's theme uses a similar arrangement to [[Shadow Mario]]'s theme of the same music, the [[Underground Theme]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''
*On the covers for the ''[[Super Mario Galaxy Original Soundtrack]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2 Original Soundtrack]]'', Mario's silhouette is dark blue covered in stars, resembling Cosmic Mario.
*Prior to Cosmic Mario's debut, [[Metal Mario]] had an alternate color scheme where he can be selected into blue in ''[[Mario Golf (Nintendo 64)|Mario Golf]]'' for the [[Nintendo 64]].
