Super Mario Sunshine

Super Mario Sunshine is a 2002 platform game develop and publish by Nintendo for the GameCube. It is the second 3D game in the Super Mario series, following Super Mario 64 (1996). The game was direct by Yoshiaki Koizumi and Kenta Usui. Produce by series creators Shigeru Miyamoto and Takashi Tezuka, written by Makoto Wada. And score by Koji Kondo and Shinobu Tanaka.

However, the game takes place on the tropical Isle Delfino, where Mario, Toadsworth, Princess Peach. And five Toads are taking a vacation. A villain resembling Mario, known as Shadow Mario, vandalizes the island with graffiti. And leaves Mario to be wrongfully convict for the mess. Also Mario is order to clean up Isle Delfino, using a device the Flash Liquidizer Ultra Dousing Device (F.L.U.D.D.). While saving Princess Peach from Shadow Mario.

Super Mario Sunshine receive critical acclaim, with reviewers praising the game’s graphics, gameplay, story, soundtrack, and the addition of F.L.U.D.D. as a mechanic. Though some criticize the game’s camera and F.L.U.D.D.’s gimmicky nature. Moreover, the game sold over five million copies worldwide by 2006, making it one of the best-selling GameCube games. The game was re-release as a part of the Player’s Choice brand in 2003. Nintendo EPD rerelease it alongside Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Galaxy in the Super Mario 3D All-Stars collection for the Nintendo Switch in 2020.

Gameplay

Super Mario Sunshine shares many similar gameplay elements with its predecessor, Super Mario 64, while introducing various new gameplay features. Players control Mario as he tries to obtain 120 Shine Sprites in order to bring light back to Isle Delfino and prove his innocence. After Bowser Jr. (disguise as Mario) steals the Shine Sprites and covers the island in toxic slime. Players start off in the hub world of Delfino Plaza and access various worlds via portals which become available as the game progresses.

Similar to collecting Stars in Super Mario 64, players obtain Shine Sprites by clearing a select mission with a specific objective. Unlike its predecessor, these missions have a more strictly linear order and most other mission Shine Sprites cannot collect until the previous missions are complete. There are also various hidden areas and challenges across Isle Delfino where more Shine Sprites can be obtain. Throughout the game, players may also find Blue Coins hidden across the island, which can be exchange for more Shine Sprites in the boathouse at Delfino Plaza.

F.L.U.D.D. (Flash Liquidizing Ultra Dousing Device)

However, in this game, Mario is join by a robotic backpack name F.L.U.D.D. (Flash Liquidizing Ultra Dousing Device). Which uses the power of water to clean away goop and help Mario reach new places. Mario starts with two default nozzles for F.L.U.D.D. Squirt and Hover, which he can quickly switch between. The Squirt nozzle lets Mario spray a stream of water which he can use to clean sludge, attack enemies, and activate certain mechanisms. The Hover nozzle lets Mario hover in the air for a short period of time, allowing him to cross large gaps while simultaneously spraying things directly below him.

As the game progresses, Mario unlocks two additional nozzles for F.L.U.D.D. Which can be substitute with the Hover nozzle: the Rocket nozzle. It shoots Mario high up into the air; and the Turbo nozzle. And moves Mario at high speeds, allowing him to run across water and break into certain areas. Each of F.L.U.D.D.’s nozzles use water from its reserves, which can be refill via water sources such as rivers or fountains.

Secret Courses

There are also various secret courses where F.L.U.D.D. is taken away from Mario, forcing him to rely on his natural platforming abilities. Unlike Super Mario 64, Mario can no longer long jump. He can instead perform a spin jump by twirling the analog stick and jumping, allowing Mario to jump higher and farther. Mario can also now perform dives at any time, giving Mario the ability to slide quickly across wet surfaces and serve as another alternative to the long jump.

At certain points in the game, Mario may come across an egg which hatches into a Yoshi after being brought a fruit he asks for. Yoshi can be ridden upon and can attack by spitting juice. Which can clear certain obstacles that water cannot. Yoshi can also use his tongue to eat enemies or other pieces of fruit which change his color, depending on the type of fruit. Yoshi will disappear if he runs out of juice or falls into deep water. Juice can be replenish by eating more fruit.

  1. Eric

    Love these games, presentation is great and a trip down nostalgia lane.

  2. Heather

    Great for nostalgia! I was excited when I heard this was coming out! They could have done better with the menu screens and maybe adding anything else. But it’s just the three games and their soundtracks. I loved N64 so I’m just thrilled to be sliding with penguins and the other two I barely played so super psyched to try them. I played N64 Mario first! So far, happy!

  3. Kane Matnivong

    No matter what has been said about this collection, this will always be the best because of having Super Mario 64 on it ever since the Wii U Virtual Console days in a re release. Not only that, for those who don’t own a GameCube, Super Mario Sunshine is on here and now you can play it on the Switch as well as Super Mario Galaxy for the Wii for those who also don’t own a Wii. I do congratulate Nintendo for this amazing collection. But Nintendo, please do me this one favor and put Super Mario Galaxy 2 for the Wii on the 3D All Stars Collection

  4. Z. Foster

    So much fun and well worth the money.Graphics do look improved across all three games.I get to relive amazing memories and my kids get to experience these classics for the first time!!

  5. Richphotos

    I know the games will be good. They were when I played them years ago.My problem is the pre order. No release day delivery, Tuesday delivery even with prime.Never pre ordering from retrolio again.

  6. Nero In a Nutshell

    Look, I understand a fair amount if the genuine criticism for this game. In many ways I know Nintendo could have and SHOULD have done so much more to make this collection the definitive 35th Anniversary celebration of the Mario Series, and the true 3D counterpart to the original Super Mario All Stars for the SNES. That being said though, this is still a really classy package with three of the most acclaimed and revolutionary games of all time, gorgeously optimised for the Switch in full HD. It was so delightful to experience Galaxy and Sunshine all over again, and finally playing the legendary Super Mario 64, which shockingly has held up beautifully and is still so much fun to play. The menu is minimalist but very classy and the inclusion of all three game OSTs is a nice touch, but there really should have been more to justify this collection. Concept art maybe? Interviews? Development stories? Trailers even? I know all this can be found online nowadays but it still would be really nice incentive that would no doubt add alot of value to this set. But let’s not mourn what this game isn’t, because what this is is a delightful collection of three incredible games in one of gaming’s biggest series! It’s easy to wish for full from the ground up remakes like the Crash and Spyro trilogies got, but these games hold up so much better than any of those games did in their original states that it would almost be sacrilege to mess with these three too much. It’s great for fans who haven’t.

    Im so excited to get my game since i found out we are getting games from my childhood. Growing up sunshine and galaxy were i played a lot. So its great to play something that i just enjoyed. I even now can play mario N64 since its the only one i didnt play.I preordered it right away and was sad mines came at the end of the month. But surprise it came on time when it came out. So i was excited.I havent written a review on it since ive been stuck busy playing and enjoying it. So writing one that its worth it and for those who havent played any of these. Please do these are worth the money.Your switch also comes with the soundtrack from those three games so you can play it on your switch whenever you want it.

  8. J.L.F.

    The Emulation is good. The got rid of backwards long jumps in super Mario 64, so it won’t the best good for speed runs. A great way to experience Mario 64 in 2020, and The graphics of Mario galaxy are way better on the switch. Mario sunshine handles really well to. Super Mario 64 can be a little challenging to get used to nowadays, but it is cool to see where 3-D Mario started. They didn’t up the specs of Mario 64, but I think that’s good because it gives a more authentic feel to the game

    As many have said, this is really nothing more than the 3 games as they originally were. I don’t care, I love Mario games, and despite that fact, I have never fully played any of these 3 games, so this was a no brainier for me. I can totally understand people passing on this set if you have played these games before, but, if you haven’t played 1 of these, I think getting this is worth it. The HD upscale is great, of course Galaxy looks the best, and by does it. And just having 3 Mario games as an option to play at any time is perfect. Mario has always been good with Pick up and Play kinda games, it’s not like Zelda where if you don’t play for a while, you have no idea what you were working on and what you had to do last.
