Sunshine needs to be ignored...
I played it again recently and realized... It's just for show. I have the game for nostalgia and to occupy shelf space.
-Potentially great, yet ruined plot (also, no right to an attorney on Isle Delfino or what? Mario had an alibi harder than Peach's head)
-Potentially fun levels... but hover nozzle makes it way too easy
-Potentially "Oh yes, that was a cool one" bosses, ruined by reappearances in later games
-Yoshi was done wrong (time constraints!? That's NOT the Miyamoto we know and love)
-Blue coins = the most tedious thing you'll ever, EVER have to do in a Mario game
-An appallingly easy final boss battle
What did I see in it when I was 10... What do Nintendo's staff members see in it now...?
