Product Description: Super Mario Sunshine takes Mario and Peach to beautiful Sunshine Island, for a much-needed vacation-- until a graffiti artist dressed like Mario goes around vandalizing the place!
Amazon.co.uk Review: 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

Rating: - sunshine
This is one of the best mario games i have ever played. The graphics are amazing, the levels are long, and the game its self is long.This game is also diffrent from the regular marios, in this game instead of getting mushrooms and other things like that you have waterguns, It might sound wierd but trust me its very fun. If you are a mario fan or if your just looking to buy a mario game defenatly check this one out.
Rating: - It's like banging your head against a wall of teddy bears for 2 weeks.
I'm glad to see that people have still been reviewing this game recently. I'm always a system behind, but I always buy Nintendo. I just bought a gamecube and this game.
Let me tell you this. Super Mario Sunshine is one of the most frustrating creations I've ever been invited to partake in. At times it seems like the game was designed to make me break my controller and buy a new one. If I hadn't grown up on Mario, and if this were the first video game I'd ever played, I would never ...

Rating: - Work's great on the Wii
I purchased this game when I bought the Wii and it works really well especially with a Gamecube controller. The plot of the game is that you (Mario) are visiting a distant land, when you are confronted by the citizens who accuse you of polluting their countryside. Mario is sentenced to using a water canon to go around and clean everything that was ruined. You soon find out that there is a Mario lookalike (sort of a blue, watery looking Mario) running around with a paintbrush polluting everything. ... Read More
Rating: - Best of the Series!
I do not understand anyone who would rate this game badly. This game enthralled me for hours. It was so much fun, that I have played it through two times. The graphics are not as good as Galaxy, of course, but I thought that from the neat worlds down to the music was fantastic. Some of the stars were difficult and frustrating, but I think they were better planned out than the simpler ones found in Galaxy, though Galaxy did have a few hard ones to. This game took me longer than Galaxy, about the same ... Read More
Rating: - If you seek real entertainment, avoid this.
I bought this game to play on the Wii after having played Super Mario Galaxy to the bone and getting all 121 stars, which were indeed difficult and stressful to get but not at all compared to Super Mario Sunshine.
The game seems rushed and not well-finished at all. Surely Mario does look much better than the precarious Super Mario 64 design but the game looks like a testing beta version of itself. The graphics aren't great, the music is... just there, and the gameplay ranges from funnily easy ... Read More
