Editorial Review: Amazon.ca: 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 look-alike for daubing graffiti all over the island. Rather conveniently, there's a 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. This built-in safety net means the game can afford to be far more ambitious in its level design 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. On top of all this are rideable, fruit-juice-spewing Yoshis, extra water nozzles, super-hardcore platform levels where Shadow Mario nicks your jet pack, and 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: - Super Mario Sunshine ReviewThis is the best Mario game by far! I love the graphics, I love the action and I love the characters! Congratulations Nintendo, this one is a classic! Rating:  - Great with lots of interesting ideasThis game is full of strange surprises and humour. There are many creatures to interact with, many levels to enjoy, many challenging opponents, everything a good Mario game needs. Mario gets accused of creating graffiti all over Delfino Island, the main area of the game, and is sentenced to having to clean up the mess he made. That is where FLOOD comes in. FLOOD is your little helping Hi-tech water gun. It shoots water at enemies (and switches), but it can also make Mario fly, rocket to the sky, or zoom through levels very fast. It is quite similar to Super Mario 64, just with different levels and people, and FLOOD. Hours of enjoyment guaranteed! Rating:  - Frustrating.This game is an exercise in frustration. The developers know just how to go that one step further in a challenge to turn a game from fun to maddening. I would not recommend this game to anyone without buckets of patience. The platforming is unforgiving; one tiny slip and its back to the beginning to try it all over again. Sometimes you're not even put back at the beginning, and you tediously have to make your way back to the challenge. I don't possibly know how younger children would be expected to get through a game like this. There must be a special place in gaming hell for people who enjoy torturing a person like this. I can only hope. Rating: - a great gameMario Sunshine is quite a bit different from the past Mario games. It is actually pretty difficult but that's great for the gamer. It's hours of play and lots of fun. Rating: - Very GoodThis game is really good, the graphics are amazing, and there are always new things to find and discover. There are some hard levels where it might take a couple or more tries. There are so many different places to go throughout Isle Delfino, so you never really get bored. If you can't get a level, then you can just go to another area nad try that level. Of course it follows the basic plot, where Mario has to save Peach from Bowser. Bowser pretends to be mario in the beginning though (even tho he's all blue, everyone thinks you're the bad person), and makes a mess all over the island with brown gloop. The residents blame you, so you have to clean it all up, fighting bad guys, and trying to get Peach back. Overall, it's a great game, and you ... Read More: |
