I like Mario Galaxy and this is more Mario Galaxy, so sign me up. Granted, the first game is more striking for its uniqueness at the time, had a better atmosphere and a story that had a little bit more effort than "oh no princess peach was kidnapped by bowser go save her Mario" put into it. However, Mario Galaxy 2 improves on a handful of things gameplay and design-wise, like being more challenging overall and cooler power-ups, it also brings back Yoshi in a way that doesn't suck ass. Shout outs to Mario Sunshine, by the way.
