Who thought up some of these missions? Cool lets herd burning Chain Chomps into water. Twice.

Hey here's a level where you talk to guys who throw you. Hope you initiated that dialogue at the right angle or you die!

Hope you like spraying water on Shadow Mario because you get to do it over and over and over again.

It's even more frustrating that they could have done loads of QOL fixes in the remaster and they did absolutely nothing.

This is why I fucking hate Mario. All that effort and he never smashes.

Surrender yourself to the darkness. A hero's rightful place is underneath my boot, stomped flat like the insignificant worms they are.

Those ones are particularly bad but overall I really liked Sunshine.

Hey when you die lets boot you back to the overworld? Why? Beats me. I guess the game will last longer if missions are constantly inconvenient.

Does Hover nozzle need to be toggled instead of having its own dedicated button when jumping? Yeah. Why? Dunno.

Here pick a squid to ride on. We're not going to communicate at all that the colors mean anything or that you can increase the speed on two of them. But they do. Super Mario Sunshine doesn't need to communicate this though.

Uh. I'm like 99% sure Mario 64 does this too, that's not unique to sunshine.

64 was also the first major 3D platformer.

What's Sunshine's excuse?

Hell some small tweaks for stuff like this on All-Stars would have been appreciated.

What's Mario 3's excuse? What's Mario World's excuse? What Mario Land's excuse?

Mario games send you back to the overworld when you die. They always have, since the introduction of the overworld. This isn't new to 3D Mario.

Mario games send you back to the overworld when you die. They always have, since the introduction of the overworld. This isn't new to 3D Mario.

The difference with those games is that they just dropped you back in the game when you pressed A and it takes like two seconds.

In Sunshine you have to sit at a Too Bad screen and listen to a jingle. Watch Mario get booted out of the level. Jump back in to the level manually. Watch the intro to the level again. Then finally make your way back to the actual obstacle you died at because the game always re-inserts you at the same place for all 10 missions which is rarely a convenient place to be.

That level stinks! It feels worse on the Super Mario 3D Collection. Mario kept on getting yeeted randomly.

personally, I fucking despise the poisoned lily pad sub-level because if you die you have to do the whole ride-Yoshi-across-the-boats thing over again

even if don't die but still screw up and miss a coin the fucking pipe at the end takes you back to the fucking plaza as if you died! like wtf!?

it pretty much forces you to get on the tiny ledge and work your way slowly back to the start while trying not to fall off and praying to god you don't screw up again....

I always thought the hate for the pachinko machine was overblown. It's that God damn poison river that's the spawn of satan.

Nothing is more infuriating than getting all the red coins in pachinko, then dying trying to get to the center

The poison river is BS just for the fact that the water doesn't look dangerous and if you jump to high, the leaf will sink low enough to have you killed.
