Customer Reviews
Not perfect but still great.

This was a great game but not very consistent.There are two throway levels but most of it is great.
A really great game!!

My sister and I have had this game for a while now and we still love to play it! It has a ton of levels and it never gets boring! It is totally worth the money and we would recommend it! It is sort of a strange plot, but anyway, it really engages us! The only problem we had with it was when we bought it we didn't know it was only for one player, but that doesn't matter because you can make multiple accounts. We would give this game 100 stars if we could. We sometimes let our 4 year old brother play it but he just runs around in circles and looses so do'nt buy it for little kids. Buy this for a kid who is into Mario stuff and they won't be able to stop thanking you!

I'm Walking On Sunshine, WHOOAAHH!!!

Many people expected too much from this game. I didn't. I got just what I wanted, and then some. I can't wait for Mario 128.
Graphics-5/5 great graphics and water effects.
Play control-4/5 Perhaps the only semi-weak point, at first the control is a bit loose. But by Gelato Beach, you should have a good feeling for it.
Game Design-5/5 120 shines is a lot, and Im still working on it! The cinema scenes are worthy of getting popcorn and a front row seat for.
Satisfaction-6/5, I don't know the amount of replay value it offers, since I haven't got all 120 shines, but it does have a second ending, and just spraying stuff with water is a blast. Yoshi adds another point.
Sound- 5/5, catchy music that plays in your head for a while, and the sound effects are realistic.
The Good- HUGE world of play, YOSHI! YOSHI! YOSHI! (holds up yoshi banner)
The Bad- play control is rough for rookies at first.
The Ugly- Has Mario gained weight?
Not as good as the other Marios...but

Super Mario Sunshine isn't as good as the other Mario games but it's still packed with loads of fun, puzzles and "other stuff" to have you playing for hours and hours. The one thing I like about this game is that it's somewhat similar to the others as there are different worlds to go to. The other good thing is that it's not SIMPLE to beat. Some of the worlds and/or places are a challenge, if you don't cheat (by guide or internet), this game may have you frustrated for a bit...maybe that's because I never listen to anyone, I just push the A button real quick so I don't have to sit there and talk to them (no patience). But I suggest that's the better thing to do unless you are COMPLETELY stuck that you're losing your mind. Mario has his E.Gadd (water pumper) which is actually a pretty nifty gadget. I love how you can float upwards and zoom across the water. Yoshi is back as well and a fun part of the game. The worst parts of Yoshi are he needs a certain fruit to open his shell and secondly, he can't go into the water or he'll disappear into thin air. This game is fun. If you don't like fun, puzzling games then this isn't for you but if you loved the other Mario games, I recommend you buy it. It's worth the price for you can replay it as much as you want (similar to the works of Super Mario 64) and the graphics are good. The sunglasses are kind'a cool too. Nice control and wonderful game play.
Awesome game.One of the best on the Cube.

To me this is a great game and I have to say its my second favorite Mario game(my first favorite is Super Mario World).I really dont see why some people think its so hard.For one thing the camera is fine and you can change the C stick to get a better view.The graphics are very good for a platformer and the controls are easy to get used to.The story goes like this...Isle Delfino has been polluted and Mario is being blamed for the mess.As a result they make him clean up the entire island.
I think most of the levels and missions are a lot of fun but some can be tedious and frustrating.The mini levels hidden inside each real level are the best thing about this game.My favorite levels are Ricco Harbor,Bianco Hills,Pinna Park and Noki Bay.All in all I would definitely say this is the best platform game available on the Game Cube.
