![]() But if it's different and for the GameCube, it's apparently "not fine" to some. I guess if a game that's a little different than others in a series, whether it's a spinoff or a mainline entry, is released for another system, it's fine. and new characters like the Piantas and Nokis, but at least still involves Mario rescuing Princess Peach from Bowser. But apparently that doesn't matter much, because the game is both loved and hated. Super Mario Sunshine takes place on "Isle Delfino" and introduces F.L.U.D.D. Even Super Mario World doesn't take place in the Mushroom Kingdom, and instead takes place in "Dinosaur Land." Both games are loved by nearly all Mario fans to this day. Super Mario Land takes place in "Sarasaland" rather than the Mushroom Kingdom, and doesn't even have Princess Peach (Toadstool) or Bowser. Like how Kirby Air Ride isn't the first game in the the Kirby series that's different, Super Mario Sunshine isn't the first game that's "different" in the Mario series. And like Kirby Air Ride, some also criticize the game for being "different" and at times not looking or feeling like a Mario game. (the water pack that Mario wears for most of the game) and sometimes awkward controls. Some of the criticisms include F.L.U.D.D. With the release of Super Mario 3D All-Stars for Switch, which includes Sunshine, critics weren't as nice to the game as when it was released in 2002. A lot of people like it, and a lot of people hate it. Super Mario Sunshine is now considered the black sheep of the Mario series, similar to Zelda II: Adventure of Link for the NES. Charles Martinet (voice of Mario in the games) at one time considered Super Mario Sunshine his favorite Mario game (before the Super Mario Maker games were released). Other critics, however, called the game a "masterpiece." That might be stretching it a little, but in general the game was well-received in 2002. Nintendo Power gave it a 5 out of 5, though that isn't too surprising since they were the official Nintendo magazine for the U.S. ![]() Unlike Kirby Air Ride, Super Mario Sunshine actually received positive reception from critics when it was released in the Summer of 2002. The game I'd like to talk about is yet another underrated game (nowadays, at least) for an underrated console: Super Mario Sunshine for GameCube. With a new Mario movie being released in Theaters soon and the weather warming up, I thought I'd talk about another Mario game. ![]()
