Now a lot of people think this game doesn't live up to the Mario name, well I disagree. The platforming and level design aren't the best in the series, but they're not the worst either. In my opinion, the platforming and level design are actually better than most other plat-formers out there. Now, for years the Mario series has been merely running and jumping, but now they tried to throw in something new, a little water cannon backpack. Some may argue that it is annoying to use and detracts from the game-play, but in my opinion if you take the time to get used to it, it ends up adding something new and somewhat refreshing to the mix. If you are desperate to go back to the basics there are a few neat levels with weird visuals and zany music in which you simply try to get through the level in time, and with no water cannon backpack. I thought these were a good addition and mixed it up a bit. The difficulty was pretty hard at times. I know there were some levels that took me a long time to finish. The soundtrack is nothing to get excited about, but I guess its not really bad either. The visuals look pretty good, but some people will argue that its not "realistic" enough, I think that the day Mario starts looking realistic is the day I stop buying Mario games. The water effects in particular are surprisingly good, and the water reacts to your movement. Overall I'd say give it a try, you can probably get it for cheap now anyway.

This game was a welcome relief from the MarioKart's, and MarioParty's! Woohoo! Another adventure! I relished on the play-ability and even the toughest challenges in the mini-games. Thank you Nintendo, for getting away from the Kart and Party series, serious gamers like the adventures! When you have to save and shut down til the next night, it's a gratifying annoyance to have the game stuck in your mind all day, until you can plug in again, and try all the things you've thought up. What's going to be next for Mario? Please keep the Gamecube games coming, not all of us want a Wii. I don't even have the urge for one, I'd rather sit in my easychair and sip my drink. I'll never move furniture for a game.

This was the very first Mario game on Gamecube. I've gotton all 120 star things which took like 3 years. This was an action normal video game unrelated to the Mario saga. It was kind of violent.

Sirena Beach
Sirena Beach has a hotel from parts 2 - 8 of Sirena Beach. You enter Noki bay by going to the cylender peice of light that is produced later in the game press Y and look staright inot the sun. The others are simple and there is one on top of the shine gate. There are 240 blue coins in the game and you can by a shine sprite fior 10 blue coins. Red coins are found in certain levels, twice in Bianco hills and can be used after you complete a mini-game. The cheats in this game are kind of hard to master, and if you can't get over 70 shine sprites, you should find blue coins to buy shines and you need ten blue coins to buy a shine sprite and there are 240 in the whole game and there are 120 shine sprites in the whole game and episodes in each of these episodes get harder but I have beat all 120 shine sprites so I never really play this game anymore.

This game has been picked on for so long that I just HAD to step in and defend it! This was the first big Mario adventure since Super Mario 64, and I thought that it delivered everything that it should have and more! I had such a wonderful time playing this game. Spraying the jetpack, riding Yoshi, collecting coins and shine sprites etc. And that cool, tropical music...ahh! Everyone keeps saying that this wasn't as good as Super Mario 64, but I thought it was way better! Super Mario 64 didn't even have Yoshi, except as a brief cameo appearence on top of Peach's castle. No, Yoshi isn't the only reason I think Sunshine is better than Mario 64, it's just ONE of the reasons. Spraying all the goo off of thing's with the FLUDD jetpack is much funner than it sounds! And this game also gave Mario's arch enemy Bowser a voice for the first time ever! And Peach? What can I say, she's as cute as alway's. I guess that's why Bowser keeps kidnapping her again and again! ^,^
The bottom line is, don't let anyone tell you that this game sucks, because it's totally awesome! If you missed out on this game, then you missed out on a HUGE moment in the Super Mario Series! It will alway's remain a classic.
