This is exactly how I feel. It's very rare nowadays that a game makes me want to come back to it. But that's what Galaxy has done.

Luigi's Red Coins? I don't even remember that challenge. I do think the game was a little easy, but then I remember that I've been playing platformers for some 15 years or so now, and 3D platformers for, what? 10 years? My 10-year-old niece, who is no newcomer to video games, plays it and has trouble on that very first galaxy. I've heard complaints here and elsewhere about the camera, but it was never a problem for me. Getting used to being on the other side of a 3D world and only seeing the outline of Mario was a bit of a challenge, but fun to play around with all the same. There were a few times I just jumped as high as I could from a planet to see how the gravity would interact.
