The graphics are actually pretty fucking great even compared to now (same with the Rogue Squadron gamecube games). Super fun, cute as hell, and I like the water canon mechanic.

Only problem is the inverted camera controls. I can't get used to that, never understood who actually likes this.

i only ever played it on an emulator many years after it came out but i liked it, except for the bug where the emulator corrupts memory somehow so that you can't save the game normally and have to use save states

it may just be some sort of issue from using Dolphin on Linux, there are bug reports of this issue that are like 5+ years old and yet i guess nobody ever fixed it

Played this for the first time last year and really did not like it, other than the pure platforming stages. Those were 180.

what did you think was wrong with it?

Are you normally a Mario fan?

It gets a lot of hate on video game forums, and I never understood it. I think its great. Amazing for its time.

I am not a huge Mario fan. I don't actively dislike them, but I don't play them much. I do really really like Mario 64 though, which was why I gave Sunshine a whirl.

I think one bit that irritated me was that it was less "free-form." In Mario 64, you gradually unlock areas and ultimately need 70/120 stars to beat the game, but you can get them from all over. In Sunshine, you simply have to get the first seven shines in each of the 8 stages. That kinda bothered me, because I couldn't move on from an irritating shine to try something else; I HAD to get it. On the flipside, there was no point to exploring Delfino Plaza for Shines besides pure completionism. If you're a guy who really loves Mario and always goes for 100%, I guess this wouldn't matter, but I found it irritating.

Besides that, I think the game was frustrating a little more often than Mario 64, and the controls were more frequently irritating. This is also 100% subjective, but I didn't care much for the music, the beach town setting, or the overall "vibe" of the game, compared to other Mario titles.

no, but Odyssey is great. Not better than either Galaxy. I like it better than 3D World. All are excellent.
