The Tip Networks are a type of object in Super Mario Galaxy 2. Tip Networks are mounted on a green and yellow signboard-like post. They provide helpful tips for the player for upcoming obstacles or challenges that lie ahead. Mario needs to stand in front of the Tip Network to activate it. The TV shows a quick demonstration of how to surpass a difficult part of the galaxy. Unlike the Cosmic Spirit, it does not degrade the Power Star to a Bronze Star. The Tip Networks play a similar role to the Hint Movies in Princess Peach's Castle in New Super Mario Bros. Wii, except that it does not cost the player anything. If playing as Luigi, they do not appear.
