Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: Six years. Six long years we've had to wait for a new Mario game and finally it's here. And even considering the ridiculously unfair expectations, Super Mario Sunshine is almost entirely as good as you'd hope and expect. The premise of the game is that Mario's tropical holiday is ruined when he's stitched up by an evil lookalike for daubing graffiti all over the island. Rather conveniently there's an extremely useful water pump waiting for him to use, which not only washes away the mess but also doubles as a handy jet pack. The jet pack aspect means that whenever you fall off something you have the chance to immediately recover yourself; this built-in safety net means the game can afford to be far more ambitious in its level designs than ever before, with massive levels filled with trampolines, tightropes, water-powered windmills, huge coral reefs and mountains and mountains of platforms. The whole thing looks amazing, too, with the most realistic water ever seen in a video game and a near infinite draw distance. And that's without evening mentioning the rideable, fruit juice-spewing Yoshis, the extra water nozzles, the super-hardcore platform levels where Shadow Mario nicks your jet pack, or the goop-generating bosses who seem to live to make Princess Peach's laundry a nightmare. After the sweet but rather short pleasures of Luigi's Mansion and Pikmin, you need have no fear that Mario Sunshine is of a similarly brief nature. There are a total of 120 shines to collect--the same number of stars as in Super Mario 64--and the game world is at least as large and far more interactive. This is without question the best game on the GameCube yet; that may be no more than you'd expect from a Mario game, but it's certainly more than most of us mere mortals deserve. --David Jenkins Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - If you want Nintendo at its best so far, try Super Mario GalaxyI bought this game to play on the Wii after having played Super Mario Galaxy to the bone and getting all 121 stars, which were indeed difficult and stressful to get but not at all compared to Super Mario Sunshine. The game seems rushed and not well-finished at all. Surely Mario does look much better than the precarious Super Mario 64 design but the game looks like a testing beta version of itself. The graphics aren't great, the music is... just there, and the gameplay ranges from funnily easy to insanely difficult. Plus the cameras are almost manual and only turn by themselves when you're in tight situations, usually making you die. Okay, lots of people like difficult stuff - as I do - but the difficulty of Mario Sunshine ... Read More: Rating: - Great fun but too difficultThe game looks and flows great. I had great fun playing it for a few weeks but at a certain point it got impossible to pass the levels and became very frustrating so I have had to abandon it now leaving a sore taste. Rating:  - This is the best game on gamecube by far.This is the best game by far because theirs so many quests you can do u can get 150 stars over all its not much off a story line but its probably the best mario game with the best graphics even though mario olympics and mario galaxy are out its still the best... nintendo are probably the best company drawing with the people who make playstations but way better then xbox their only downfall was the nintendo ds which hasnt got the best graphics also i would think about buying this for someone at christmas. Rating: - EntertainingThis is a good game to play,great graphics,especially the sky and the sea and very good for young children. Rating: - Not a true mario game, but fairly entertainingI've always said this was never a true Mario game. Getting straight to the point, you can forget about classic enemies/characters, as the game feels completely stripped of any true Mario styling. The plot itself is unusual, but then again a man who runs across lots of worlds jumping into pipes was never normal. Graphics wise, this really doesn't do the Gamecube justice either, and when compared to say Luigis Mansion, their's no competition - this looks alot more rougher on the edges. But bright colourful towns and nice scenery makes this a game that is still enjoyable, though it just doesn't feel like a Mario game. I guess if your just looking for a good platform game that's a little bit different, this might be a worthy buy, but don't ... Read More: |
