The player used the stylus to control Mario, and both brothers were shown in the game's galaxies simultaneously, implying a co-op mode. The video also stated that each Power Star collected in the Nintendo DS version would be redeemable for 10 [[Wii Points]] on the [[Wii Shop Channel]].

About ten days after the video's release, an article on Engadget proved the footage to be faked by discovering a shorter but cleaner version of the same video on the video site Stage6. The video was posted by psycho3ler, the username of Pablo Belmonte, who had previously created a  hoax video of a "Nintendo ON" console in 2005 (the original ''Super Mario Galaxy DS'' video even showed a Nintendo ON planet, adding credibility to this theory).<ref>Orland, Kyle (December 19, 2007).
