Other than the fact that it's levels are more open I can't think of any[QUOTE="Shinobishyguy"]
[QUOTE="Eponique"] Is this the only argument SMG lovers have? The argument was only a few pages back; there are plenty of reasons to like SM64 over SMG and nostalgia has very little to do with it.

Both the controls andcamera are incredibly unwieldy
idk about that.. Those were the only two things that I think SM64 did better than Galaxy. I don't like galaxys camera because it takes away from the platforming. Having the character be larger on the screen makes the jumping feel better, and more immersive.. I feel like I am jumping along with mario, where as in Galaxy I am just watching mario hop around... And the levels in mario 64 are pretty open so there wasn't any points other than just the few that took place in really small areas where I had camera issues...
And idk, I thought the controls were some of the best ever in Mario 64.. I mean after playing it for so long I could literally fly through every level backwards without breaking a sweat.. The momentum system that changed your jumping was awesome... I loved just running back and forth and doings summersaults and backflips jumping off of walls.. I loved how loose it was, I always felt in total control of mario.. Where in Super Mario Galaxy the controls are a bit too tight and restrictive. Marios max running speed is a bit slow, and I feel I have to try too hard do flips.. Like I will only be able to do a summersault 3/5 times I try to do it because its so strict about the timing. Plus I wasn't really a big fan of the mid air spin, in a game about platforming it made it waaayy too easy.. But without using it the controls feel too tight and restrictive..
The level design is so much better that I am ok with it but if Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 had the focused camera and loose controls of Mario 64 it would pretty much be the best game ever.
the thing about the galaxy game's is that the camera is pretty much always where it needs to be. No need for constant adjustments like in sunshine or even 64 (for certain levels anyway. The bowser levels had a nice zoomed out camera)
