The title of this article is conjectural; an official name for the article's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an acceptable name is found, then the article should be moved to the new title.

Not to be confused with Star Ball.

A Star Sphere is a transparent sphere that holds Stars. They appear in Super Mario 64 DS, Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2.

In Super Mario 64 DS, if a player obtains five Silver Stars or presses a Star Switch, then a Power Star appears in the crystal Sphere. If a Star Switch is pressed, the Star remains in the Sphere for a short time. When the Sphere is touched with a Star inside, it will break and the player will get the Power Star. In VS Mode, most of the Power Stars are found in Star Spheres, except for the ones in The Princess's Secret Slide.

The Star Sphere reappears in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. In these games, the Star Sphere only holds Silver Stars. It is notably more bubble-like in these appearances. Template:BoxTop
