I agree. I had been a huge fan of Mario since the NES, but I found that I never really enjoyed Super Mario 64. It focused too much on exploration and not enough on platforming, plus the camera was really annoying. Super Mario Galaxy on the other hand I thought was fantastic. It struck a perfect balance of platforming and exploration. The gravity gameplay is also fantastic. Throw in more interesting powerups and the best music of the franchise yet, and I consider Galaxy easily the best 3D Mario.
