Personally, I liked lots of things about Mario Sunshine...
My number one favorite part has got to be the secret sub-levels in each world. They're like classic platforming sequences that remind me of the good ole Super Mario Bros. days. I also like the cutscene in Pina Park, the one where Shadow Mario hovers above the pool of water, and the water begins rippling as Mecha-Bowser rises from underground...
I also REALLY like all the new moves Mario can master with FLUDD. Simple things like spraying and then jumping can create large waves that destroy multiple enemies, or spraying while doing a spin-attack can shower groups of enemies. These are amazing new skills.
These are only a fw of my favorite parts...what are yours?
-
Certainly not the Piantas. They're selfish, stupid and not to mention ugly.
Argh............and Bowser Jr. I don't even want to talk about that brat.
But.........I did like Fluud. "It" helped Mario out through thick and thin.
-
Clark already stated one of my favorite parts so I'll state another:
Il Piantissimo. He's actually the Marathon Man from OoT.
-
Riding Yoshi.
-
Are you for real, TC? *goes insane*
-
Yes. If you hack the game and remove his mask, you'll see that he looks just like the Marathon Man.
-
I'm no hacker, so I guess I'll never see it...
-
I beleive there was a topic on these forums with a pic of him un-masked, SB.
Anyway, I liked the part where Shadow Mario revealed himself to be Bowser Jr. After that, my mom and I started saying, "You lay off my Momma Peach, you!" around our household for at least a good month.
-
My favorite part is definitely the battle with the Manta thing. I love that episode.
Also, I love the glitch at Gelato Beach where you uncover another one of the dune things underneath the yellow acid-type stuff, and if you ground pound it at the precise time that the dune flies, up, you fly up as high as physically possible, and ground pound from there. It allows you to see the whole island at once!
-
Noki Bay was my most favorite level. Nice music, very nice colors, and just fun.
Also, I REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND why people hate Bowser Jr. so much. So what if Bowser already had children? It's not like he couldn't have any more children after seven koopalings. Jr.'s probably much smarter than the rest of the koopalings (well, maybe not Ludwig) if he could successfully frame Mario and kidnap Peach right from under his nose. All the koopalings did was try to keep Mario from advancing.
Meh, your opinions, I can't change them.
-
I find it curious that Young Bowser of PiT looks so similar to him. But I'd rather not start a Mariology debate in here, so I'm going to counter Noki Bay.
Noki Bay was irritating in that the blue coins were so hard to find and getting to that shell was difficult. The wall mazes were fine, however.
-
I thought that Noki Bay was relaxing.
My favorite part of the whole game... well, I always liked the hotel level. Boos are my favorite Mario enemy, so that was a plus, and I just had fun solving all the riddles of the different rooms. And that Manta enemy was awesome; very original.
-
Well,i have to say. The graphics not only had bright colers but the water effects were plain awesome! That and Bianco Hills because it reminds me of my Dad's Apartments because it had a thin oval full of nothing but tons and tons of grass and because when I bought it my dad lived at Venus Place Apartments.
-
The stages and colorful worlds helped me get my mind off of all the pathetic support characters. Most of the stages surpass that of Mario 64 in terms of beauty and color.
-
Pinna Parks two roller coaster levels
The Manta Storm
The cute sunflowers outside Pinna Park when they talk if Mario squirts them with water
Sirena Beach's sunset
Gelato Beach's beach
Having the guide so finding the 240 blue coins isn't near impossible
I hate how they change the locations of blue coins in some episodes....
Bowser Jr. looks exactly like Bowser as a baby, his copied design is my only beef with him.
-
I've noticed a few subtle differences between Baby Bowser and Bowser Jr.
Bowser Jr. has tiny horns on his forehead. Baby Bowser does not.
Baby Bowser has spikes on the bracelets on his arms. Bowser Jr. does not.*
If the fact that he looks just like his father as a child (which doesn't seem so odd to me, as lots of children look like their parents when they were young, because, you know, their DNA are pretty much the same) really annoys people, I'm just going to have to scratch my head on that one.
*Yes, I'm aware that these differences do not exist in PiT. I don't care.
-
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that that the Koopalings got their looks from the mother, whoever she may be.
-
Clark already stated one of my favorite parts so I'll state another:
Il Piantissimo. He's actually the Marathon Man from OoT.
I beat the Marathon Man.............on Super Mario Sunshine! I should say that on one of the Zelda forums and stick it to all the n00bs that claimed to have beaten him in OoT.
My favorite part of of SMS is the blabbering sounds Toadsworth makes when you squirt him.
I don't like the Piantas on SMS, but I think those mafia Piantas on PM:TTYD are kind of cool.
-

Horns is the only thing differnt, and the bracelets isn't part of his body.
-
Maybe the horns aren't, either. They could be taped on. HUH.
I seem to remember a lot of good things about Mario Sunshine--so many, in fact, that it's much more tempting to point out the things I didn't like. Anyway, it was a good game that grew on me as the years went on.
-
It was a dissapointment that SMS didn't include the people and the giant widget-spout-like object that walks around everywhere...
The prototype level layouts look slightly better than the current ones.
But those don't change the fact that it was a really good game.
-
I liked how they stuck with the tropical theme throughout. It really gave the game a fresh, new flavor, and we got some really cool, original levels out of it, too.
Of course, sticking to the theme limited the level selection too, so it's kind of a mixed blessing. Still, I had a blast on Isle Delfino with FLUDD.
-
I liked the end where u fought bowser and bowser jr.( it was so easy) and when you got to go on the island at the end. The island that takes you by a boat. There is a fee of 5 coins.
-
I like the graphics (advanced stuff, like reflections, getting dirt on you and being able to wash off) and the scenery (coloring, models, overall look). Even if I was dissappointed with the size of each level (the pictures made the game look alot bigger IMO) and the final boss, I can still relish the graphics, and they are still pretty good to this day, when most games the "wow" effect usually wears off in the next month.
-
Probably one of the coolest things was when Delfino got flooded.
Heh, the shroom Pianta says, "Now I don't care what happens! Woooooooo!"
The tropical theme ( while beauftiful as it was ) could have had some changes like night versions of the other levels. Pina Parks rides all lite up...
Cruisen around with Yoshi on Gelato Beach at night with the Sand Birds light gizmo glowing...
Ooooooo the pwnage.....
-
Hearing Bowser talk, I guess. I'll never understand why people hate his voice.
-
Bowser's voice is awesome, and it too is my favorite moment in the game.
Seeing Bowser interact with Jr., showing he's really a good dad, was really cool too.
-

Yeah. It's really disappointing to play current Mario games and read his subtitles while hearing him make an occaisonal roar, when we know that he could just speak it all out.
-
Additionally, Super Mario Sunshine was the only game to have a whole lot of real voice-acted dialouge, a feature games before greatly lacked.
I think if Bowser's going to talk again, it'll probably be in Mario Galaxy, since it is in the same gameplay style/feel of SM64/Sunshine. Let's hope so.
-
They should have made his voice sound less like Randy Savage.
-
I liked the part when Bowser Jr. was revealed. From then, Bowser Jr. became one of my favorite characters. I also like the fact Bowser had a audible (human) voice instead of roars and text boxes.
-
My favorite part of SMS would probably have to be the music.
-
Squirting piantas with water/fruit juice.
-
What I like most is the turbo thing for flud. now that is one of the top speedrun items in all off mario.
My top-speedrun items list:
#1 blue shield (Nsmb)
#2 plain tiny mario ( all smb )
#3 Turbo nozzle (sms)
btw dooes anyone know the new items for super mario galaxy coming for wii?
Yours truly,
Link (hy)rules

I probably am pretty dumb for replying to a post that's quite a few months behind, but....whatev, I guess.
My favorite parts about Super Mario Sunshine were the secret areas with the remix of the original Mario theme...snapping fingers and everything. I especially loved the area where you have to relay on the Pinatas to give you the old heave ho from platform to platform. ...How did they get there in the first place, I wonder? Ah well.
My second favorite part? Spraying/jumping on Toadsworth and hear him going "Yaada-bla-bla-bla-bla!!" Cracks me up everytime.
I also liked seeing Mario sport a Hawaiian shirt and sunglasses. Though the Hawaiian shirt did look pretty odd on him...
-
My favorite parts of the game were the music...and sequence-breaking.
EDIT: Forgot about the pachinko stage.
-
The very best aspect of SMS is the sound the sunflowers make when you talk to them. "Yaa humminay!"
^_^
I also absolutely loved the watermelon rolling. ;)
-
I thought the Watermelon Festival was clever, but I did not really like rolling multiple watermelons down with all of the obstacles around. It was very frustrating before I knew where the largest one was.
-
That episode was extremely useful for getting extra lives, considering that the watermelons yield something like 7 coins when destroyed, and regenerate a certain amount of times.
-
The coolest yet scariest part was the death river. Its a secret level
-
Death River? Are you talking about the lava?
-
the secret level with the toxic water came to my mind. I always had trouble steering that, and all the other, leaf.
-
I really liked the final fight and the only two Cinema scenes were simply awesome
-

That episode alone is the cause of my extreme hatred for the Cataquacks.
-
I like the boss fights against Gooper Blooper and the Giant Wiggler. I especially liked the Wiggler fight and Gelato Beach in particular, although the Cataquacks were annoying at times (as in the aforementioned melon rolling shine).
-
I liked it when you spray Toadsworth with water he goes "Oh my... Yaaaa, blah-blah-blah-blah."
-
It was very frustrating before I knew where the largest one was.
I found it frustrating after finding the largest one.
-
Heh, yes, that was tough, but before I knew where the largest one was, I had painstakingly rolled every other watermelon available to the judging place.
-
Just in case anyone got the wrong idea, I actually absolutely hate the watermelon stuff in SMS.
There is a similar ball-rolling thing in Okami, and I totally blew at that too.
-
Apart from everthing else, The final boss fight has got to be the coolest one in Mario history. (did someone already say this?)
-
Personally, I was totally fascinated by the amazingly realistic water effects! Every time I go anywhere in any Level, I would tend to find the water source first, and check it out in every nook and cranny.
I also like the artistic style of shade rendering in the game’s graphics…
The colourfulness added to it sure puts quite a spectacle of bright and cheeriness.
Furthermore, I simply adore the highest places too, like that of Ricco Harbor and Nico Bay.
-
I would have liked Noki Bay more if there was less difficulty in finding blue coins. That place always takes me the longest to find all the blue coins-- unless I'm forgetting Pianta Village.
-
Isn't it Noki Bay?
-
Chup is correct.
Another favorite part of mine was getting further in the game (~70 stars) in one day than my brother (who paid for it in the first place) did in months (probably ~20).
-
Ooooh! Noki! That's right!!
That what happens when you get quite a name confusion after you've been playing The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker a bit too much!

I agree, I could play a whole game of just the Secrets. I also like the fludd tricks. The new wall slide is cool too. The exclusion of the long jump mad me sad though. That's my favorite jump.
-
I can't Bowser's sequence on YouTube. :(
-
Err... What?! There's no verb!
-
lol find Oh my stars! I can't believe I let that one slip!
-
Ahhhhhh. I thought that might be it. Is this what you're looking for? (caution, spoilers) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2ASXvQdTkM)
-
Thank you! I wanted to hear Bowser talk with an actual voice acting. At this point I don't care if I saw spoilers. I have trouble with those secret stages. Mario's upper half stuck in the sand made my morning. Wouldn't it be funny if Bowser sounded more similar to his cartoon version?
-
i didnt hav a gamcube while that game was out but i did play it on a demo and at a friends house
-
I finally beat the game Tuesday
-
Noki Bay, Bianco Hills, and Pinna Park all me me feel relaxed. I love the little challenges inside some levels.
