How Super Mario Sunshine Was ALMOST The GREATEST Mario Game- What Went Wrong?

Ойындар

3D Mario games are some of the BEST games ever made. Super Mario Galaxy and Galaxy 2, Super Mario Odyssey, Super Mario 64, and whatever the next 3D Mario game on the Nintendo Switch 2 will be have gotten critical acclaim. Even Super Mario 3D Land has gotten mostly great reviews. Super Mario Sunshine on the other hand, is often considered to be the WORST 3D Mario game. But is it? In this retrospective, we'll be taking an in depth look at the GameCube classic, Super Mario Sunshine. Who else is HYPED for Super Mario Bros. Wonder?

    I've played it on Dolphin, it's a really fun game that is much more skill based than the other 3D Mario games but I found the controls a little slippery and I don't like those "Secret of the insert mission location here" because again the way Mario moves in this game, he's a little jittery and you can easily slip off the map by simply moving and the fact that Fludd can't help you makes the secret of the x missions harder. I think they would be much better in Super Mario Galaxy because Mario can simply get air boosts by spinning with would make these stages better but they're pretty annoying in this game.

In the latter games I mentioned, you can literally travel on foot (or by sea via Plessie) and explore through a large continuous world until you arrive at your destination. Odyssey does not work like this. If I want to go from the Sand Kingdom to the Wooded Kingdom, I have to quit the Sand Kingdom, go back to the world map, and then let the game load up the Wooded Kingdom. Its many areas are literally broken up. They’re not all merged together into one continuous map.

You can also see it was rushed when appreciating the final Corona Mountain level, it feels weird and out of place. Fortunately, most flaws, as you mentioned, are for getting 100% and not just beating the game and its levels. Hopefully one day, we can get a sequel, but I'm not holding my breath.

    After watching Skawo's playthrough, I realize that several things in Super Mario Sunshine kinda aged poorly as Skawo brings up several issues with the gameplay. That being said, for its time, it was much better than its peers as most games in the genre tend to feel half-baked with a lack of challenging platforming (double jumping on strict railroads), tedious combat system, and sometimes, hopping on the trendy bandwagons. Meanwhile, Super Mario Sunshine did just one thing: Be a good platformer.

    As someone who started and grew up with SM64 and its DS remake, Sunshine was the only 3D Mario I hadn't played by 2013. And I still haven't beaten Bowser in it, every time I try to give it a go its jank overwhelms me and makes me ragequit, even on relatively tame missions. I don't like that you have way less flexibility with which shines you go for, as you have to beat the Shadow Mario mission in every stage which requires a completion of all the ones preceding it. If there was simply a number of Shines to get that unlocked the final level I'd have very likely made way more progress and probably completed the story by now. I think another reason Sunshine's jank bothers me so much more than SM64's is because SM64 had simpler level design to accommodate for it, while Sunshine's level models are way more complex, leading to way more potential ways the game can jank out. And i swear it always puts its worst foot forward whenever I play it. It's still the only 3D Mario I have not beaten the main story of.

    What is this jank some people keep saying Sunshine has? Outside of the few painfully broken levels like the pachinko machine (which are all optional anyway), the majority of the main levels play just fine. They're a bit more difficult than other 3D Mario games, but that's honestly refreshing. Mario's controls and the camera, while not perfect, are a significant upgrade from 64. As for disliking how linear the game is, that's valid, but is a bit nit-picky in my opinion. It's fine to prefer a more open sandbox, but it shouldn't ruin the game for you since most of the game's main levels are good.

You said those shines from blue coins could just be a new area or two, it just so happens that I'm pretty sure one or two areas didn't make it to the final game. Also huge respect for saying Sunshine is better than 64, not many people want to ever admit that

Super Mario Sunshine however, while having its fans, is still very divisive.

    I love this game to death, but would never ever recommend anyone to 100% this game. In fact, I would actively advise against it. Basically, this review reflects my thoughts on this game exactly. I guess one extra aspect that you didn't touch on is that I love all the NPCs that are spread throughout the world. You don't see that in any other 3D Mario except a bit of Odyssey. They are always talking about stuff related to either the current episode you are in, or leading up to a future episode. And even if you never talk to them, seeing all the locals talking, dancing, and running about makes the worlds feel like lived in locations. The only world that needed more NPCs was Pinna Park. Why was a theme park so empty??

    The things that caused Sunshine to slide into mediocrity are the broken physics (which usually become more noticeable without FLUDD and really show their colors at the pachinko machine), a camera that at times can be worse than the one in Super Mario 64, blue coins being tedious to collect and an over-reliance on them to get all the shines (no doubt some of the blue coin shines were originally intended for Coronoa Mountain), not having the freedom with which shines to tackle to unlock the final level, and the game generally having a very troubled development cycle.

    The game *WAS* rushed. It only took about 1.5 years to develop, when 64 took between 2-3 years (closer to 3) and Galaxy 1 took about as long as 64. Galaxy 2 took 1.5 to 2 years to develop… but the first Galaxy laid the foundation for Galaxy 2. If they wanted to realize their concept, they should've let the game cook for at least another year… but I understand going nearly 2 years without a Mario game on their flagship home console was out of the question. They learned their lesson with Sunshine, though. Hence why Super Mario 3D World wasn't as bold/ambitious as many would've hoped. That game also had a 1.5 year development cycle, but they chose to play it smart and go for something less ambitious… but incredibly polished. It's also why Odyssey, being a much bigger game, was able to more successfully realize this open 3D concept as a much more polished experience. That game had over 3.5 years of development time. This gives me hope for the next 3D game in the series. The 3D Mario team hasn't released any new standalone games since Odyssey… which was almost 7 years ago. Assuming the next game is a launch title for Switch 2, it will be the exact opposite of a "rushed" game, even with Bowser's Fury happening in 2021. 7-8 years is a very long time…

    You'll hate me for this, but hey, it's only an opinion, right? ;) Calling this game better than 64 is blasphemy, and I refuse to tolerate Super Mario 64 slander of any kind. Sunshine at its core is a very good yet flawed game. While I would love a remake of 64 done in the style of Odyssey, Sunshine's definitely more deserving of a remake. Its core issues come down to a lack of polish, the Blue Coins, certain aggravating missions, and slippery controls. But I think Sunshine has aged worse in some aspects than 64. 64 hasn't aged the best either, and the camera is awful, but if there's one thing I'll say and you'll probably disagree with me, is 64's movement was smooth and the controls were excellent for it. I have suffered a few rage-inducing deaths thanks to Rainbow Ride and certain aspects that require the Wing Cap, but overall, 64's just a better experience in terms of movement and polish. I feel it gets a lot of unfair criticism when Sunshine's issues are more in your face and it feels rougher overall to go back to. It doesn't help that the followup games are just better, Galaxy 1 & 2 and Odyssey. Now take back what you said about 64, or I'll go cry on Twitter that I'm *sigh* publicly unsubscribing from you because I'm just a backdoor Grumpus that can't handle someone having an opinion. Now pin my comment, that's an order! Lol Do it and we can enjoy some LiveWire on the beach. You do get some brownie points for praising Yoshi. :)

Like 3D World has multiplayer, Captain Toad levels and so on. 3D Land was the foundation of that gameplay style. An 3D game played like the 2D ones. While I agree 3D World is an better game, 3D Land still test it's time for how it's transition to it's style and I think the game is still solid enough for as much replay value as 3D World or other Mario games has.

The reason why the game didn't have those types of mechanics. It's because of the fludd, Also, there's the fluddless levels that I thought that would be a piece of cake to beat but oh boy I was wrong! Of course, I tried this game on the original game cube with my friend when I was young and 3D all stars and it's still remains difficult for me, which is why Super Mario Sunshine is my least 3D Mario game.

This dark jewel is the reason why king boo appears more menacing, violent and more powerful than in the mario games that feature him, which presumably take place after the luigi mansion games. The black jewel could possibly be the one frome Wario World or even a piece of the dark moon, seeing as how it corrupts ghosts turning them violent. As for the king boo in Mario Sunshine, that is just an imposter created by the magic paintbrush made by E Gad.

    I still say Sunshine is the worst 3D Mario game ever made. 3D Land may not be all spectacular to most people and some might say it's the worst one. But I disagree. Because at least it's more polished and actually has solid gameplay & level designs. And the fact it evolved the gameplay into even greater when 3D World came out and does it way better, that's an accomplishment. Sunshine could've been like 3D World did where it took it's predecessors; Mario 64, and improved on. But not only did Sunshine make the structure, levels, mission & gameplay wise actually worst than 64, but it's also very buggy & left many content that was scrapped. Also the 100% completion can go die in a fire. It's an shame because the game has potential and it does try something differently while staying true to it's source material or formula from Mario 64. But it was super rushed and became very unpolished. This is one game that seriously needs an full remake treatment to fixed, improved & add more too that was cut from the original and we would get something much better.
