Oh my gosh! I am still waiting to play Super Mario Sunshine. The game was announced in like 2002, right? Man. It certainly looks more fun than Super Mario 64. The controls look more refined in all of the gameplay videos I've seen. The wall kick took a while to master in 64, in Sunshine it looks so much easier. I guess I can't really vote one way or the other.
I'm voting for the fantastic Super Mario 64. While Super Mario sunshine is a great game, I agree with KKslider that even though it was good to see it try something different it didn't always work and it just lacks the magic of SM64 and the SMG games. Its still a lot better than 3D land though.
Super Mario 64: 8
Super Mario sunshine: 1
Why isn't this locked? Shouldn't this be in the This or That section?
Current Playthroughs: Xenoblade Chronicles, Okami, Red Steel 2, Eternal Sonata, SMW 2: Yoshi's Island, TMNT IV: Turtles in Time, Earthbound, Secret of Mana, Final Fantasy IV, Phantasy Star IV, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, and TLoZ: Spirit Tracks.
You know there are certain sequels like Super Mario Bros. 2, Majora's Mask and side game Luigi's Mansion that were controversial and not as well liked at first but is now beloved by everyone and is probably far more popular (arguable for Mario 2) then when initially released.
Super Mario Sunshine...is not one of those games. At least not yet, once the GCN nostalgia really gets strong in a few years or so, it's gonna be considered one of the best games ever made I bet, even regardless of my own opinion.
I think the Gamecube nostalgia has already been going pretty strong. Although, I'm not necessarily nostalgic about Super Mario Sunshine, as I've been playing it all day today.
