They're kind of their own thing, but they're closer a bit to 2D Mario games.
2D Mario Games
Linear 3D Mario Games: Super Mario 3D Land, Super Mario 3D World
Semi-Linear 3D Mario Games: Super Mario Galaxy 1&2
Exploratory 3D Mario: Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, Super Mario Odyssey
Most times I lump the Galaxy games with the most open 3D Mario games, but I can understand why they are a different category. I just don't get lumping 3D Land and 3D World with Galaxy and the most open 3D Marios.
