90s/2000s Nvidia renders were so cool!

I don't think I even won on my home turf

Here's a few more screenshots, unfortunately the embed didn't pick the first one. Loved playing with the colors!

Hrrrmmm *squints*

H'what

BUT the good vastly outweighs the bad. Very beautiful and fresh locales, amazing control (minus some physics jank), and FLUDD is such a cool mechanic. Pachinko and poison river levels were not bad at all honestly

Imo, this Mario Sunshine didn't "age poorly". I was cursing out the same things this past week I was ~20 years ago. (fuck you Corona Mountain boat). The bad things were always bad. I think it was clearly a game with a rocky development, being worked on since at least 2000 (Spaceworld)

Seriously though, love this game. I don't care if there is no real reward for getting 100%, I can't help but do it every time I boot this game up every couple years. It's got my favorite player control in any Mario game and it just oozes creativity

Honestly I remember the stand way more than the user himself, never really thought about that lmao. Akira is dope tho and part 4 in general is just GOAT

You were playing smart! I tend to lean hard into offense and nothing a little grinding could've helped, but I hated that boss and just wanted to be done with him :p
