I didn't enjoy 64. At least not enough to finish it. I thought Sunshine was okay, and managed to finish that one (The non-flood sections were the most fun for me).
So, perhaps with a bout of masochism, I figure I'll give one of the Galaxy games a shot. So which one should I start with? I know that G2 introduced Yoshi, but I actually don't like Yoshi so if there's any sections where you're forced to ride him that would be a negative imo. Also are either of them compatible with the classic controller?
The only 3D Mario game I've ever really played and liked was Mario Sunshine (crappy camera, and all) so bearing that in mind, I would probably recommend starting with Galaxy 2. I haven't played it, because I hated the first Mario Galaxy, and I really don't see what would be all that much different about the second, but the general consensus seems to be that the second one is better. I'm pretty sure the first one does not work with the classic controller, at least as there are some pointer actions that I believe require the wii mote. I really don't mind the wii mote + nunchuck control scheme for games that don't have overly intrusive/crappy motion controls and such. (Skyward Sword.) It's basically a two-button set up where you can rest your hands the length of the nunchuck cord, and can use each button with a different finger. The troubles appear when a game tries to overly utilize the Dpad and 1+2 buttons.
