As long as Mario has been around you'd think Nintendo could come up with a game that has more substance? While somewhat disappointed, the game does play well. But it could be so much more.

the first thought was a bit to harsh. super mario sunshine the game was great and all but it had les levels. bowser is the boss again and com on cant h be a bit harder to defeat. mario 64 was long hard and hd so many stuff like flyin boxes and stuff. wat i liked about part one was you could rie yoshi. mario 64 hit sunshine out the park bya mile. when sunshne came out i was soexcited but got dissapointed. guesi shouldnt have begged my parnts to buy it. overall its a so so game.
not bad not good

Iv'e played this game for awhile now and iv'e just quit. It's so much like donkey kong 64 when you enter a level theres just so much hard stuff you have to do and you have no idea where to begin. It's more like doing chores than playing a game. Still there are some fun things to it like some miny games but there are just so many hard puzzles like you have to walk acroos a beam and if you fall it takes you 2 minutes to get you back were you were. It's just a big pain.
Fun but annoying

This is a fun game, even though it's not a "real" mario game like Super Mario 64. It can, however, be very challenging due to wonky camera controls. Moves like "wall jumping" when doing it between two narrow objects will often leave you jumping into thin air because you cannot perfectly align the camera. I would say kids 10 and up could play this, but younger than that would most likely have a difficult time of it. Graphics are beautiful. Music is fun.
Mario Sunshine...kinda sad.....

This Mario Game is OK. I mean besides the fact that what you do is spray stuff with water...it has potential and I enjoyed it for a while. But now the game is rotting and collecting dust bunnies on my shelf! It is a little childish, Which is why it is good for younger children. If you have a son/daughter/nephew/(something else like that) this would be an ok game if their age is about.....o maybe....say....7-11! I suggest you read some other reviews first before buying it!
LOOK UP!

Another Mario game, which actullay turns out to be quite enjoyable. there's something new about this, something that's normally in a Mario game, there are flaws. In almost every subject that I'm about to write about, which is sad.
Graphics: 9/10
Pros:
It's amazing how good the grahics are, very smoothed out, with lots of textures. I tell you, I've never seen a game so colorful, so bright. Almost everything is pretty well detailed.
Cons:
All the colors are great and fun in a Mario game, but there's just too much of that in this. It really bothers my eyes sometimes. I'm confused here, why is Yoshi all diferent. What's going on with Orange, Purple, Yellow, Pink?!?!? What happend to Green? It's really stupid, just because you gobble a banana, dosn't mean your going to turn that color.
Sound: 7/10
Pros:
Very well done in this game, I enjoy lishening to it. Backround music is enjoyable. A new small feature they added, is when Mario is weak and low on health, his voice will get quieter and weaker, a neat little feature.
Cons:
Mario's voice will bug you like crazy. When your bellyhopping, the "hah" noise is very distrating and annoying that I could round kick him in the throat so he couldn't say anything. The most downright annoying thing in this game, are the island fatties. When you talk to them, instead of giving you advise, they might say something like "Oh, I love the sunset tonight,".
Gameplay: 5/10
Sometimes I'll get a speed nozzle, spray the fatso's in the pants then I'll flee, with the speed nozzle, that's how annoying they are, you know, I think that the designers of this game ran out of ideas very quickly, because Mario's mission is to collect all the shine sprites (what happend to stars?). 20 of these sprites are in the hands of these fools on the island. It's really ridiculous. The levels are downright terrible, and you can only go for 1 shine at a time, were in SM64, you could get for 4 stars if you felt like it. It's rare that you'll be stomping anything, and the only point in doing so is to collect coins for health. Another thing about the levels, their all the same, nothing's defferent about any of them. SM64 we got volcano, desert, water worlds and SMS, we have paradise, that's it. Oh, there's a park of paradise, and a hotel of paradise, forgot to tell you that.
Secrets/Unlockables: 6/10
They put alot of this stuff in this game, 1/3 of the sprites are Secret. One thing I hate about this game, the blue coins. First off, it seems pretty neat, but when you discover that you need to get blue coins to help collect every single sprite, this turns into a hassle. Enough about all the bad stuff, let's talk about the nozzles. There are 3 types, a hover (makes you hover in air for a few seconds), a rocket (you can soar high in the air) and a speed nozzle (you can go 5x faster then you normally run). This gave the game some taste. The rocket nozzle helped me unlock 3 hidden sprites (which is actullay pretty good) and the speed got me about 7 hidden shines.
Contorls: 8/10
I don't know why people find the controls slopply, I say it works out well, very easy to learn too. Aiming the spray nozzle is tricky like 1 star people said, but it just takes a little practice to get good at it. The camera controls are very disrupting, sure you can move the camera, but if your in a certain spot, the camera won't move a notch.
Overall:6.5/10
The game is very enjoyable, but they changed the story a little to much to call it a Mario game.
