Going from Mario 64, to this...is a biiig step up in quality for me lol. I mean dont get me wrong, I liked 64 and appreciate it for what it is and I had fun with Sunshine...but this...this was both the perfect combination of pure fun, beautiful setting's, variety of levels and mechanic's and difficulty. Like some levels are just pure fun and easy, others later on are for those who want a little bit of a challenge kind of thing. And Mario in this game controls perfectly, even with my slightly dodgy controls. Not once unlike with 64 and Sunshine did I complain to Mario that he's not jumping high enough or curse at him. Because in this one, if I died or got hit, it wasn't the games dodgy mechanic's, it was usually my fault. Also the music in this game is just phenomenal, like, I could listen to it all day long. The number of beautiful or tense or happy or pure awesome tracks in this game is amazing, in fact I will probably go and save the tracks to my music library later.

The only downside I can possibly see is the wii controls (or wii like switch controls), if your not used to the wii controls for beginner users it might feel off or control weirdly but it wasn't a problem for me since the wii was basically my first console.

Honestly, I can go off on how great this game is for a long time and compliment every part about this game, because it is amazing and in my opinion, revolutionary for its time as a wii game and for how the game works but then this review would be way too big. So I will say, overall, this game is just the perfect mario game and it is a must play. It is so much fun, so pretty and unique in every galaxy you go to and is one of the pinnacle points for me in terms of Mario games. Cant wait to play Mario Galaxy 2.
