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. Your water pack has the ability to be a fire hose, jet pack, rocket pack and motorboat.

Now that the description is out of the way "Here we go!". The graphics are good for a game of its time. It has the overall feeling of Mario 64 but doesn't quite live up to the rep of a Mario game. The puzzles have the potential to be fun, but also incredibly frustrating. The variety of game play is also pretty abundant. However, this game has the absolute worst camera angles of any game I've ever played. Add that to the poor shadowing and you have a formula for a game where the player will constantly have to restart missions and climb sequences from falling off cliffs, not making the jump, falling into the water, falling from not being able to gauge distances, missing landings while using the je pack option, etc. Even Devil May Cry had better camera angles than this game and you can't control the cameras in that game. I even find it pretty annoying that I can't adjust camera controls, I'm very used to non inverted controls and this game is all about control inversion.

Anyway, that is my overall of the game. I'm not sure if this game is worth the $17 or $18 you'll pay in total from Amazon. But if you are a dedicated Mario fan go for it. I say just spend the money on Mario 64 and Super Mario World downloads for the Wii and play those. I think you'll derive much more enjoyment and the less frustration playing those games.

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 amount of time it took me to beat Mario 64. Galaxy was good, Mario 64 was better, Sunshine was the best. (Don't get me wrong, Galaxy was a lot of fun, but not tops on my list.) It was a lot of fun defending a hotel from a manta ray attack and running along the rooftops of Delfino Plaza, I highly recommend this game.

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.

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 want to play another one for the rest of my life.

I concur with everything the other reviewers have said about the controls and the camera. You're constantly fighting the buttons to get where you already know you need to be. It's sometimes tedious, often mind numbingly repetitive, and almost always keeping your blood at a steady boil.

That may very well be the genius in the game. You CAN NOT put this thing down. It's brilliant, funny, creative, and fun. It's also evil, sadistic, and more than willing to make you spend 3 hours on a level that will take you 3 minutes to complete in the long run.

I don't know how a game for children ended up this difficult, but I begrudgingly give it 4 stars. It's completely brilliant, and it's also the most frustrating game I've ever played in my life. What can ya do?
