It's so highly rated because of the context of its time. Namely, PS and Xbox games were quite lame across the board.

The only complaint I have for Super Mario Galaxy is that it lacks online leaderboards.

I thought about  that, but nope. donkey kong returns is far better platfomer. last us pushed the envelope for graphics and story in games. skyrim pushed the envelope for open world games. batman arkham city was just mind blowing. honestly maybe it's cause of the motion controls and  gravity none sense. really mario 64 controlling better and having better level design makes no sense since it was the first 3d mario released like 10 years earlier

Except 64 doesn’t have better level design as Galaxy levels are tied to platforming concepts using gravity something no platform game at the time did. For example the other platform games were simply jumping from platform to platform Galaxy turned that on it's head and made it about the player utilising the gravity physics to solve platforming puzzles.
