Oh I already know baby, got mine today, played when they were hot on the Wii back in the day. I know they fire.

Another great change I noticed: in the original games, you were prompted to save after each Power Star. Now, the game simply auto-saves your progress instead without wasting a few seconds of your time after clearing every level. Over time, all of those save menus added up – and now they’re completely gone, though you can still choose to manually save and quit when you’re done playing.

This is probably a weird take, but I liked the time spent at the end of each level manually saving. All the music cut out and it was like a little breather before being thrown back into the world. Galaxy is very over-the-top by design, a lot of the time. Those little moments of quiet were an important part of the game for me, so I'm glad I have the Switch 1 version instead.
