As a child, I played both Galaxy games on my Wii; this is pure nostalgia, but with a (much) improved look.
Although the game uses gyro controls, this isn't a disappointment!

Because I skipped the Nintendo Wii and Wii U, switching directly from the GameCube to the Switch, I never got to play one of the two best Mario games. When Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 were announced for the Nintendo Switch, I had no choice but to pre-order them. After both games arrived on cartridges at my doorstep on October 2nd, I started playing immediately. What I immediately discovered was the unique gameplay in relation to the controls. In handheld mode, I found neither game easy to control, partly because you control the hand that shoots the stars by tapping the screen. This takes you out of the flow. Of course, you can also set the game to aim by tilting the screen, but it's still not optimal. The same applies if you play the game in the dock on your TV via your Pro Controller. Aiming isn't optimal then either. Whether this also applies to the Pro Controller 2 for the new Switch, which apparently has better gyroscopes, I don't know, since I still play my games on the Switch 1. Those peculiar controls are due to the fact that both games were originally developed for the Nintendo Wii and therefore rely heavily on the Wii Remote. Fortunately, all these issues can be addressed if you play both Super Mario Galaxy games docked on your television via your Joy-Cons. Then, after a short learning curve, the control problems disappear like snow in the sun. The games themselves, both Mario Galaxy 1 and 2, are stunningly beautiful. And to top it all off, the second game also features Yoshi. In both Mario games, you have to rescue Princess Peach from Bowser's clutches. You navigate through the galaxy via all sorts of beautiful little planetary worlds, which will keep you entertained for hours.
