What accidental inputs? If you’ve played Sunshine, you no doubt know what I mean. water backpack, and thus, removes your only ability to correct the accidental inputs you press. In the first three levels, I have collected most of the Shines, but I’m stuck at those tricky platforming sections where Translucent Evil Water Mario or whatever steals your F.L.U.D.D.

Well, folks, I am twenty (20!) Shines in, and while I have had a pretty good time so far, it’s getting to that point already where I’m feeling a nagging sensation in the pain receptors in my brain.

My thinking was innocent enough the controls always felt wrong to me, and a re-release on the Switch with less muddy graphics and a Pro Controller may make the game easier to play. It should come as no surprise that I jumped at the opportunity to own Super Mario 64/Sunshine/Galaxy as a part of the timed-release 35th Anniversary celebratory 3D All-Stars, but given what I’ve just told you it may be surprising that Sunshine was my first choice to play. This cycle repeated itself a third time a couple of years ago, and finally, last year my friend donated me his collection, and among it? Super Mario Sunshine. Same thing happened – and although I was determined to get into it this time, I got a few Shines and then got aggravated again. I also wasn’t a huge fan of the music and, in short, nostalgia for 64 basically ruined the game for me. I was expecting Super Mario 64 part two, and instead I found a difficult to control, dull island that didn’t really do anything for me.

I originally bought the game used at a GameStop many years ago just before my Nintendo hiatus, to play on my newly acquired Wii, with the plan to revisit the titles I never enjoyed on my Gamecube. My history with Super Mario Sunshine is checkered, at best.
