Rumor: Super Mario Galaxy leaked online
We contacted a Nintendo spokesperson for confirmation, only to be informed that we were the first to alert them of the development. Note that in the event of the rumor being true, posting of download links or impressions in the comments sections will be met with permanent bans and disapproving glares.

Make sure you’re a part of it.
Believe me... this is going to be the game of the year.
argggh
One example of this is the Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (PS1) E3 Demo. You can play through unfinished, blocked out areas if you have a save game that lets you begin inside those areas!

and for skeptics that require a video to believe, i'm sorry, i don't really care if you don't believe :D
1) demo disc is already being distributed
2) Someone took the time to upload a multi-gig file online
3) demo disc for some odd reason contains the full game
4) demo disc is playable without special security measures
5) demo restrictions is bypassable through hardware/software without alteration of demo code
6) demo can be played from a written DVD
I'd say this is highly improbable. (Then again, a lot of improbable stuff have been happening lately..)

Chipped Wiis can play burned games and there are pictures of the "demo" disc in the wild. So I think that pretty much covers your points 1-6. Why would someone make this info up?
LOL are you saying thats a rare thing? People put hd-dvd/bluray copies online.
iLOL. I'm putting this on a plaque and hanging it on the wall, basking in the blinking lights from my router.
1) demo disc is already being distributed
- Yes, they did say that its already being distributed.
2) Someone took the time to upload a multi-gig file online
- GB game iso, oh no, no one can upload such a big game, especially not a lowly EBgames employee right? new wii games get added to torrent sites the morning the game comes out. Using a simple DSL line (6000kbps) you can download at a steady 700kbps per second using torrents. That means you can transfer a 4gb game in under 2 hours.
3) demo disc for some odd reason contains the full game
- That is also what the post said.
4) demo disc is playable without special security measures
- What does this even mean? The security measure is that it was designed to be used at EBgames only.
5) demo restrictions is bypassable through hardware/software without alteration of demo code
- What part of "its not a demo disc, its a full game" did u not get from the blog post
6) demo can be played from a written DVD
- Wikipedia modchip and you shall see. amazing aint it.
I can confirm this is true. Saw it on the torrent sites this morning
Then I'll go to Mexico!

Actually I think that would be funny.

Yep. Pirates are the majority of gamers - especially Wii gamers - and are ruining it for the minority of people who don't have hours upon hours of free time to void their warranties.
Please leave the FUD for the government and corporations (sorry, that's redundant), they're much better at it.
