OverviewWhen a luxurious escape to sun-drenched Isle Delfino takes a turn for the worse, it’s up to Mario to clean up the newly sludge-filled paradise, clear his own name in a case of mistaken identity, and rescue Princess Peach from an elusive kidnapper – by all accounts, a typical vacation for the infamous plumber.

No baseball. No basketball. No gimmicks. Its just Mario being Mario. And its one of the best looking Mario games. And yes, it’s Mario cleaning up the city, but also cleaning the **** his brother did at console’s launch.
Probably the second toughest Mario game, Sunshine made its best to move gamecube up in the charts.
Rinzzler says:Mario and Peach are going for a holiday, but Mario has fell into really
big trouble. The Island Isle Delfino has been dirtied by a sort of evil
Mario Twin. Now it's up to him to find the shine sprites with a water
device called F.L.U.D.D.
Yoshi1712 rates this game: 5/5This game is one of the best 3D Mario platformers especially with the use of FLUDD and many other good gimics.
Cezz624 rates this game: 5/5Super Mario Sunshine is about as good as Super Mario 64, it has all the charm that made SM64 great. This game though, is very underrated. People just didn't like this Mario title as musch as SM64 or Super MArio Galaxy, they say it is an "akward Mario game" and "not classic Mario enough" SMSS has all the chracteristics as SM64, so they all the mean comments? In SMSS, Mario goes on vacation to Isle Delfino with Peach. When they arrive, every one blames Mario for all the goop that's all over the city. Mario is confused as he just came to Isle Delfino. So, Mario is forced to do community service work.(clean up all the goop) But there is someone that is doing the mess and Mario is getting blammed for it, find out as you play SMSS. Overall, SMSS is an awesome game. Good story, good graphics,and great controls. SMSS is worth it, so play now.
Yoshi1712 says:Good game it has very cool mechanics (like FLUDD).
Chaz rates this game: 5/5Super Mario Sunshine takes place sometime after Super Mario 64 (though I wouldn't call it a direct sequel) in a tropical island retreat known as Isle Delfino. This is the first (to my knowledge) Mario title to have full voice acting, which is done quite well in my opinion.
Long story short: Bowser Jr. dirtied up the island, Mario's blamed, and you have to clean it up and save Peach. So, the story's not too great but it works, trust me (who really plays Mario games for the story?). The game has you controlling Mario in a platforming adventure, collecting Shine Sprites (this game's version of a Star) and using F.L.U.D.D. to clean the island.
The game plays a lot like Super Mario 64 and the added mechanics are very easy to grasp, making it very user-friendly. The hardest parts you'll experience are the levels without F.L.U.D.D., and they are still quite fun.
I think this game is horribly underrated, and it deserves a lot more credit than it gets from players. It's a fun platformer that looks beautiful as a bonus... there's really nothing to hate.
Loagster rates this game: 5/5Mario is on a plane to Isle Delfino. He is dreaming about seafood, Sunshine, and just a plain getaway from mushroom kingdom. But Mario arrives, only to be named a criminal who has covered the tropical island in sludge. For Mario to prove justice, he embarks on a sunny adventure to save the people of Isle Delfino. With exciting gameplay, amazing graphics, and summer fun, Super Mario Sunshine will keep you playing for hours. "CIAO!"

Jesua rates this game: 5/5Super Mario Sunshine is a game with great graphics and is fun for the whole family. It has its difficult levels but that makes it an unforgettable experience.
CJ Dubé rates this game: 4/5Super Mario Sunshine is a fun game for all. It's easily the best Mario game out there, and has tons of possibilties. No matter if you're a kid, a teen, an adult or an elder, Super Mario Sunshine is the game for you. The annoying part about it is the goo seems to be poisonous and controlling F.L.U.D.D. is pretty difficult. Also, the Cataquacks are pretty frustrating as well. So you're just minding your own business, and the come flopping over and fling you in the air! I had some rage-quits. Other than that, try it now! It'll instantaneously be your favorite video game to date.
Brendoge rates this game: 5/5Super Mario Sunshine is the gamecube adventure title for Mario, With a distinctive graphical enhancement from older outings and an outstanding assortment of intelligent gameplay, Sunshine is a winning combination - shined well to end up with a fantastic polish.
Arguably Sunshine is the favourite of the series. Purely the introduction of the F.L.U.D.D device as Mario's high-tech backpack sent gamers applauding for more. Nintendo delivers with over ten worlds for Mario to explore, each as unique in there own sense.
Much like Super Mario 64, Peach has been captured by *Spoiler* Bowser *Spoiler* who has intruded on a new land introduced first here on this game. Mario has been framed for polutting a world which is about as tropical as Hawaii itself. That said expect beautiful graphics topped off with a distinctive style formed from the retro and the addition of the new gadget.
Sunshine like every Mario adventure title is a quintessential polished piece of gaming 101 that generally deserves more than a look, an entire playthrough, it is clean fun for all ages. You have been recommended!
Antepe rates this game: 4/5Super Mario Sunshine, Super Mario 64's successor takes you away to Isle Delphino where someone frames mario of dirtying the whole island with magical paint and you have to get rid of it with your new companion named FLUDD while trying to solve who's behind all of it. This instalment in mario series contains corgeous graphics, interesting new tools and powers, a lot of area's to explore and a lot of challenge. I personally recommend it to everyone who like Mario and/or platformers.
Undertakerand619 rates this game: 5/5Super Mario Sunshine one of the best on the gamecube. It is an amazing adventure. In my opinion it is 10 times better then Super Mario 64. Not only can you use Marios agility you can use F.L.U.U.D. A little robot that shoots out water to help you make hard jumps. The graphics are absoulty one of the best on the gamecube. The music is Mario perfection. Mario Sunshine is an amazing game and you should with out a doubt agive this game a shot.
SushiBrawl rates this game: 5/5I enjoyed Super Mario Sunshine very much. The vastness of Isle Delfino is just incredible. It's pretty much like a basic platformer like 64 where you collect all the Shine Sprites all through out the island. You have the help of FLUDD which is a water device that helps you venture throughout the entire island and clean up the mess that Bowser Jr. has left.
