Let me just say that I've never played this, but I've seen screenshots and it looks awesome! This game looks alot like Super Mario for N64, but there are many added features. Obviously the graphics are better, but mario gets new weapons like a water gun! I will definately be 1st in line to get this one(along with Star Fox and Zelda of course).
Mario comes with a bang to make his first game on the cube

Well i'd like to start off by saying i'm not some 7 year old person here to write about how I think Mario will be fun. I am a 12 year old who has every nintendo system and every Mario game released in North America. So I know what games are the best and what to expect from games in the future, and I think this new Mario game is going to be great. It seems like gadgets are common in Mario's recent games. Luigi has the poultergeist 3000 and mario has what appears to be a tank of water on his back in this adventure. I don't know much about the game, yet I can tell you what I do know. The graphics are bright and colorful. The framerate is smooth. The plot is that Mario and Peach went on vacation to a town on the beach. There someone disguised as Mario wrote Graffiti all over town. The townspeople are enraged at Mario. So Mario's mission is to clear his name by capturing the villain all the while avoiding the angry townspeople.
I'm sorry if my review seems short but remember the game is still four months away and facts are scarce.
The best Mario game of all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought this game would be exactly like Super Mario 64 was. But I sure was wrong. When i looked at the graphics of Super Mario 64, I just couldn't watch my tv screen without my eyes burning. Super mario Sunshines graphics are absolutely incredible and take full advantage of the gamecube. The story is a bit different then the previous mario games because this time Mario wants to stop someone who is diguised as him because he/she are scribbling with ink on an island that Mario and Peach are taking a vacation on. Also you get to encounter and hopefully play as yoshi. I personally think that the story is more interesting than previous Mario titles. I will post new stuff up on this review after E3 because I am going to it and will learn a lot about this new game. I aready know though that this is one Mario Game you would not want to miss.

Mario Sunshines new realesed name is Super Mario Sunshine. I would just like to say this game is the best out of al the Mario games. He has a weapon a nice new home in Mexico, a few alein freinds and he still has his buddies like Yoshi and Toad and all thoose good things...I want to see Mario's come back from his mirror treatment from Boo. This time you won't be fighting Bowser and I seriously don't know who you will fight this time...
A Great Game

This game is great. If you never heard anything about Super Smash Bros. or Super Smash Bros. let me fill you in. Super Smash Bros. is a game where you can vs. each other to the death. You can pick out of 14 characters(not including the other 11 secret characters) to dual your friends or by yourself. You also collect trophys and makes records.(For instance, Home Run or Target Test Records. The graphics are MUCH better compare to the polygon-like characters in the first Super Smash Bros.. The characters are Mario, Pikachu, Donkey Kong, Samus, Link, Zelda, Peach, Bowser, Fox, Yoshi, Ice Climbers, Ness, Captain Faclon and Kirby. I can't tell you the secret characters or it wouldn't be a secret. I suggest you put this game on your wish list this year.
Sunshine has finally come!

This is a great game. I have seen the graphics and they are off the hook! The background sound and music is just great and fits in perfectly. Mario Sunshine is a very brilliant game. It is set in a very sunny and tropical area and you can even visit the beach! Mario Sunshine dosen't take place in limited areas and small towns, but in numerous villages, areas, sites, towns, and tropical forests and beaches. The overall size of the places in Mario Sunshine is gigantic so you won't find yoursself running around in the same places because you'll be busy admiring the new scenery and stunning graphics. Mario also has some new equipment. He carries around a water tank on his back which he uses. The water tank is quite remarkable because it has numerous uses from watering plants to jetpack. Besides the water tank Mario has other equipment he can use, but those I am unsure of until you see them at the E3 convention. Overall, Mario Sunshine is one of the best games on GameCube and you have to make sure that you get this one because if you don't you will regret it for the rest of your life.
A Game so Extreme...

I can already tell this game is off da hook! The graphics are great, the gameplay is probably wicked awsome, and the plot is something I've haven't ever thought of. Better reserve it now to avoid the rush, is my advice to parents.

Mario finally returns to the world he once ruled in Super Mario Sunshine. This is the unofficial sequel from his last outing by himself since 1996! Mario Party, Mario Golf, and Mario Tennis do not count. The graphics put the Cube's graphic processor to the maxinum. The contraption on his back is a water gun which squirts out water(duh)to take out paint and a bunch of other stuff. Shigeru Miyamoto(creator of Mario)says the plot is about Mario and Princess Peach travel to an exotic island where Mario is falsely accused of painting grafitti on walls and our hero must wash the paint off the walls and find out who did this horrible crime... He can do double jumps and triple jumps off walls like a hot tamale. Looks Luigi will be put back into the shadows after Mario's brand new adventure comes out.

I have seen over a dozen of Super Mario Sunshine Movies, and each one was good.
GRAPHICS--9.8/10.0--The lush worlds of Mario Sunshine are so beautifully designed. The water seems real, the environment is huge, and the piranhas, people and Mario look much better than in Super Mario 64.
PLAY CONTROL--9.5/10.0--There aren't that many actions. Spray water, rocket tank, moving, camera angles and pause are some I know of, and it'll be easy to remember them.
Music--9.2/10.0--A booming soundtrack makes this game a delight. Although the water sounds and kiddy voices may be annoying, everything else is perfect!
Fun Factor--10.0/10.0--Has any Mario game you played not been fun? I think not. Plus, you'll be watering plants, fighting enemies that bug you, and you'll be swimming, jumping, water jet-packing, swinging from poles, collecting Mushroom Medals and Stars, listening to a fantastic storyline, and fighting massive bosses, and you'll be cleaning graffiti.
Storyline--8.5/10.0--(Yawn) A Mario imposter draws all over town. Mario must spray all the graffiti off walls, and capture this imposter and bring him to justice. For all we know, the imposter could be Waluigi. Boring storyline, but hey, it's better than nothing.
Overall--9.2/10.0--This game is fantastic; it is fun, has a booming soundtrack, quirky, yet stupid sounds, and the controls aren't too hard, and the storyline could use a little work.
Well, this is the most fantastic review of Super Mario Sunshine. Hope you enjoyed it!
