It’s a good Mario game, but I can’t agree that it’s the “best of all time”
Still, there’s not much I can say that has not been said, it’s just a good game with a really incredible gimmick.
(And the Wii-Mote usage is fine)

Jogo bom e divertido
I am gonna be totally honest: I think I personally prefer Galaxy 2 over 1. I like how it takes a lot of the aspects of the first title and refines them while also adding more unique and fun challenges and gimmicks (plus Yoshi).
But even despite my bias... I will not the deny that Galaxy 1 feels like a way more magical experience. ANd that because it has something that any other Mario game is able to express: melancholy and (in a way) existentialism.
Mario galaxy puts you into this ambitious universe, full of incredibly creative galaxies, orchestrated masterpieces and places full of enduring fun and adventures. Other Mario games are full of these moments, and the solid movement and gameplay makes the whole experience flow perfectly: You get pumped whenever you enter Good Egg or Gusty Garden, and you turn a smile on your face whenever you jump into Honeyhive or Beach Bowl Galaxy......
But the game is not afraid to have levels like Gateway Galaxy, or Space Junk Galaxy.... which are just.... a set of rocks... floating in space, with the giant vastness of the universe on the horizon... with a music that can make you feel relaxed but also melanconic..... for a mario game, shots likes those reminds you...... how little we are in the universe. And how our actions, days and overall life do not make that big of a difference in the grand scheme of the world as we know it......
Contrast like those makes Mario Galaxy one of the games that will stuck in your head for the longest time. It's a title that is able to convey joy, and bubbly gimmicks and gameplay formulas that makes you replay it obver and over again... but also has these shots, these small moments in between that speak to your soul..... no wonder I rememeber crying multiple times when I first played this game.
It's a magical experience that everyone should try at least once. Mario Galaxy is a masterpiece like no others!

I am very biased towards this game. It made my childhood. No other game comes anywhere close to this game. It is in my honest opinion the best game ever made. Full stop.
I mean it's Mario Galaxy
I beat this game as a child. Alongside its sequel, these are some of the core games I played that helped govern my tastes and expectations for what games could be.
Childhood favorite for me.
VERY solid game. Exactly what 3D Mario should be.
Only gripe are some the comets. Seriously, the "speed" comets are NEVER a challenge, and it's just replaying the damn star again. Same with the Daredevil ones, but to a lesser extent because SOME (not all) are genuine challenges.
Oh, very lame final reward too. But eh, I wasn't gonna do it anyways.

One of the killer apps for the Wii. It's the Mario game with the best atmosphere thanks to the space theme. Great, simple platforming, cool power-ups. Rosalina is one of the most important new additions to the characters of this series.
Not really sure if I can 100% blame the game for this but it disoriented me to the point of a headache when I tried to play it. Friends keep assuring me it controls fine, but sadly that's not my experience with it.
Best Mario series...fight me.
Pode ser o fator nostalgia que me faz lembrar tão bem desse jogo? sim, pode ser, mas eu lembro de me divertir muito nele e também ser o primeiro que fiz o tal do 100%.
idk what else to say
One of the best 'classic' 3D Marios (along with Galaxy 2). Truly a culmination of everything that Mario 64 started, and a great send-off to the style until Odyssey reinvents it. I love this one more than Galaxy 2, in part due to Rosalina's Space Station and the tiny pieces of story surrounding the game, even though I recognize that the core platforming is even further improved in 2. That said, you can't go wrong with either. Also, this is the origin of Gusty Garden Galaxy, one of the best Mario tracks ever composed.
Just an amazing game all around.
We all know this game, the music makes me cry and so do the memories, never finished it as a kid but god i loved it
Solid mario entry
