Super Mario Sunshine is one of my favorite mario games in terms of mechanics, however I will say it does have some issues with things like the physics not really working at the best of times. Overall quite well designed with some interesting locations to visit, however it can get bogged down by some shines being dreadful to collect.
I am in the group of people that loves Super Mario Sunshine. The atmosphere in this game in comparison to the other Mario games is a genius idea and makes it stand out. I love sometimes playing levels just to explore around the colorful maps, like Sierna Beach and Noki Bay. Pina Park also is fun to run around and act like you are at a real amusement park. Probably one of the best parts of the game is the fact that you can see the other areas of the map in whatever level you are in. If Sunshine 2 was announced, I would be smiling and pre-order it immediately.
I do however see the complaints with the game that a lot of people have. The controls are very different and some levels can be extremely frustrating, like the pinball one. But to me it makes the game more unique and adds to some of the replay value.

Very funky game. While I highly admire the creativity put into this one I don’t feel it’s aged as well as other Mario games. The controls are unique but not very intuitive and can get cumbersome occasionally. Some times it can also feel grueling to play the same level a fifth and sixth time. The voice acting is weird af. Definitely a cool game I’m glad exists but a game I’m not likely too return to often.
This game has it’s flaws and is undeniably unique but once you get a handle on the weird controls it’s so fun to master the movement in this game. The world is so memorable and the platforming is top tier when it’s done right. I’d probably play this game more if you could skip the beginning cutscenes
''Omg you have mario sunshine 1.5???'' Yea I did, I'm sorry, but the controls are so fucking clunky, it's not even funny. Playing this game felt like a chore, sure the music is pretty catchy, but it's eh. Most shines just felt like they're meant to piss you off. I felt disappointment ,I'm very sad about this. The controls held me back honestly,I'm sorry. Also the level design is pretty basic,only level I liked was the carnival section. Just play mario galaxy
Mario Sunshine is a game that crumbles under the pressure of being played normally, despite this, I cant bring myself to hate it even with all of its shortcomings (there are a lot). For one there are so many dogshit stages that I can't even attempt to name them all, if you've played this game you know what stages I'm talking about, they're very bad. Do the stages even work? No. Is this ok? No. Do I have fun playing them? Most of the time yeah. How? idk. Well ok surely the movement and shit must be great if I still like the game despite that. The answer to that? ehhhh it's good but a lot of the time jank as fuck. And that's the thing with Mario Sunshine, despite all of the bullshit this game is VERY fun to play, it ain't even ironic fun most of the time it's just genuine. How does it do this? I got no fuckin clue but lemme tell you when I'm playing this bullshit I am having the time of my LIFE. Throw some bullshit like the Chucksters at me and brother I'm still balling. This shit could kill my first born son and I'd high five it and give it a hearty "hell yeah". This truly just is a special lil game (half derogatory)
