Thanks for clicking on a 7 hour video everyone! This video is actually a compilation of 10 smaller videos I made over the course of about 8 months, and as such, there will be many instances in which certain things don’t make sense within the context of being 1 massive presentation. Often times I will say “In this video” while referring merely to the current section of the video, for example. In addition to that, there are unfortunately a few graphical errors stemming from certain assets getting moved around on my computer over the course of the year. I want to use this comment to apologize for these quibbles, small though they may be, and to wish you all a wonderful night’s sleep!
For as much as I've played this game, I've never slowed down like this and actually talked to all the NPCs/explored every single avenue of it. This video really shows how this game shines ✌✌
That “tear” at the end isn’t a tear btw, that’s actually a single missing polygon from Bowsers model and the blue in his eye is just the sky behind him. If you look closely you can see the white of the clouds shifting too.
@@psychonawht2774 Basically using CCTV and audio during the night to monitor people who have serious conditions (like people who can take life-threatening epileptic seizures) and very rarely administering injections if they have a serious episode. It's 99% sitting back and monitoring as people sleep while watching videos on a multiscreen CCTV set up all night and 1% responding to emergencies. The rare times it does happen is a fair tradeoff because it's a very chill job (if you don't mind dealing with people having seizures) you just have to be ready to respond quickly.
@@psychonawht2774 I replied to you but some word must have caught an automatic filter. Basically I monitor people with very severe health conditions via CCTV and audio all night in case something happens. 99% of the time nothing happens so I'm sitting watching videos (and patients) on a multiscreen set up all night. The 1% of time where something does happen you have to be ready to run in and administer life-saving injections, like for severe epilepsy, or whatever response is necessary depending on the condition etc. It's great, 99% chilled doing nothing and 1% high pressure first aid, it's a trade off. I'm playing Dadish on the Switch just now while watching the screens. The vast majority of nights nothing happens and I just sit and watch this, Mind Pulp, Austin Eruption etc etc. If you can deal with extreme/scary situations calmly (and you can stay awake all night) it's a good job.
@@psychonawht2774 RUclips keeps automatically censoring my response (probably because I'm using med terms) but basically I monitor people with extreme conditions through the night with CCTV and audio feeds from a private office next door in case they need first aid etc. 99% of the time nothing happens, I just have to sit and watch in case something does happen and an alarm goes off so you need to find things to do (for me it's watching this, Mind Pulp, Austin Eruption etc etc).

This series quickly became a comfort series for me on this platform. I love the calm yet engaging voiceover, and mix of fact and comedy, man I love this series (I’ve seriously watched each video like 30 times over)
I was born in 97 and it was my first 3D Mario too, we had a super NES with all Mario world and all stars when I was little so I was already familiar but I remember going to my friend's house and having my mind blown when he showed me this game. Wound up getting a gamecube for christmas that year.
I was glued to this game as a kid but for some reason the manatee boss really kicked my butt. I tried and failed and failed and failed. One day I found that somebody left the disc logo side down and a chocolate bar had melted nearby running over it. As sad as I was to lose my game, I joked with myself that I 'lost' because it was like the enemy mess I was supposed to clean up ended up ruining my disc in a roundabout imagination sort of way.
I have so much gratitude for how many people adore this game as much as I do. I've played all the 3d Mario titles and sunshine has always just been the most interesting and fun to play for me. It's incredible how well each level stands out despite the similar beach themes. I used to have dreams about visiting sirena beach and noki bay as a kid. They oddly felt like very real places to me despite the limited world building of their early 2000s environments and rushed segments. As much as I wish the developers had time to fully realise some of the scrapped or unfinished ideas in the game, the half baked snippets of what could have been leaves a fun mystery behind so much of the world. Noki bay stands out to me as the most curious. This game scratches an itch that many nowadays don't seem to. Amazing video!
No matter how much sunshine content there is out there, I think it's easy to say this is the crown jewel of the topic on the Internet. Thank you so much for these videos! Sunshine is my personal favorite 3D mario.
Really amazing video, this is my favorite 3D mario and it was fun to learn so much more new about it after numerous playthroughs and I'm glad to find someone else who finds that final boss music underrated. 7 hours well spent.
This has become a comfort video for me. I put it on in the background at work. I adored this game as a kid and seeing it so thoroughly ecplored feels a lot like how it felt playing it for the first time- discoveries at every turn. Thank you
Can I take a moment to gush over how amazing this series was? I'm so glad I was recommend some episodes, because I was immediately hooked and watched the whole series. Now I'm back watching the whole series again as a single video, and I ain't complaining. It's easily the most well-researched, well written and in-depth dive into not only Mario Sunshine itself, but maybe of any videogame I've ever seen. I mean you solved the language cipher that had gone unnoticed for over 20 years. Sunshine is definitely my favorite 3D Mario game, and you've absolutely done it justice over these 7 hours. Thanks again for this!
I savored this over the course of like two weeks. This was an incredible journey back into a game I loved so much as a kid. And my daughter snuck a few peeks every once in a while, and is demanding to play this game now for the first time. Thank you.
Took me 2 months of watching this every night to finally finish it, and all I have to say is wow, man. What a fantastic video. Really awesome commentary that perfectly balances information and humor. I learned so much about this goated game and was thoroughly entertained the entire time. Instantly one of my favorite videos of all time. You should be proud of what you made here man, it's really damn good.
I loved this series. I still have to watch the last one, but what a good time it was watching the whole thing every other month. I hope you keep doing this with Super Mario 64, Luigi's Mansion and others
40 minutes in and I'm greatly enjoying the yap. I just played and completed this game a month ago, since I never owned this game as a kid and this video couldn't have popped up on my recommended at a better time. This game is incredibly charming in every way
There is a much larger market than I expected for a 7 hour breakdown of Super Mario Sunshine. Nicely done! Have played this game a ton and still learned a lot. Well worth the watch that took me like 10 days lol
This has come to be one of my absolute favorite channels on RUclips, and this Sunshine series has been equal parts cathartic and informative for one of the games that I feel formed the core of my childhood and interests. Thank you for all the time and effort you invested into making this monster, I can't wait to see what you've got planned next, but for the time being I hope you enjoy the rest
when i was a kid (like between ages 5-9) my fear of rollercoasters ran so deep that anytime my brother played the first episode of pinna park i would cry. this is one of my favourite games of all time and i had sooo much fun watching this video! thanks to you for putting it all together and thanks to all the sources that helped you!
I've watched this video in like 1 session... I absolutely loved it. Your commentary style is smooth and refreshing. I never once grew bored and really enjoyed all the exploration of themes, characters and the game itself that I've never seen before. I've seen and played Sunshine like dozens of times. I fondly remember just chilling in these areas as a kid-- this video really brought me back :) Thanks for such a wonderful masterpiece!
I have a perpetual nostalgic fondness for Sunshine but don't really have the time or energy to boot it up nowadays, so I honestly think living vicariously through this epic document of a video from time to time will more than fill the void. Thank you for this
Dude I just want to say I respect this video so much. Making a video this long is not the norm and I really enjoyed watching this video on my free time at home, work, caught some of it in an Uber, and I’ve just been invested. Sunshine was my favorite game as a 7 year old and I never got to beat it until the Switch version came out 2 decades later and I will say I was a little torn when I finished it because I never really realized this game has half the zones 64 had. But still I still felt the same amount of fun with this one as I do all the games in the franchise and it’s so entertaining to go back and see a deep dive of everything I missed in the last 22 years lol
Weird how a lot of people don’t know the very simple trick for fighting Petey on his second battle. You can just enter first person and aim and spray him and he’ll fall down. When I found this out I was pissed cause I’d spent so many playthroughs trying to shoot him with Poinks.
i'm taking an 8 hour flight in a few days and i'm so happy to see these vids in one big compilation! sunshine is one of my favorite games of all time, and these vids were such a nostalgia trip. thank you for all your hard work and dedication!!
Amazing video, I havent played this game since I was a kid and this really makes me want to give it another go. 7 hours well spent, the depth of knowledge and fun was never boring.
I love the format and extra information. I've played this game a million times and I learned a lot. I noticed you used a clip from Ty the Tasmanian Tiger. I'd love a breakdown of that game as well as it's one of my childhood favorites.
I would absolutely love to see you breakdown any of the Paper Mario games as one of your next projects. Especially TTYD! I believe you possess incredible talent for this genre of content
I never watched a deep dive on anything before, so maybe it was my love of this game that got me to click, but it was your script and game knowledge that kept me coming back! Amazing job, and thank you for this wonderful journey into my childhood. P.s My favorite level was Noki Bay, although the Eel level scared the piss out of me P.p.s The “heat haze” effect blew my mind as a kid lol, definitely a good addition
i didnt even realize this was a compilation of your own videos until maybe 4 hours in! now i gotta go check out your other content! great video for a great game i grew up playing but somehow never actually beat, probably cuz i was so young and playing it off and on, maybe ill go and finally beat it on my all stars copy
Watching videos that talk about blue coins in this game is so weird to me as it makes me realize - being able to relatively easily 100% - that I’m one of those “have played this game so much I know the coins and just kind of get” Love the video ! It’s made life OK :D
Really the best Sunshine analysis I've ever seen! I learned a lot of things from this series and it was so enjoyable to watch! Gonna miss these videos so much!
Something really neat that I noticed in the Nintendo Museum Direct today that I never even thought about-- the FLUDD boxes in Mario Sunshine (or whatever they're called, the boxes that give you nozzles) are meant to be this game's version of question mark blocks? They're included in an exhibit thats a lineup of every question block design.
4:28:33 this is far from the only one, but there are several instances of this "media not found" screen that weren't in the original videos (I think the first one is in the Noki Bay section, but most of them are in the Pianta Village section).
There is also a rather long one at 5:44:40 when Christmas95 gets a shout out for finding a reflection oddity. Oddly enough the text Christmas95 is still there over the Media Offline screen.
Oh wow, I watched this a while ago, but after going to Japan, the steel shutter on the staircase for Hotel Delfino is actually based on fire safety procedures over there, idea being (if my memory serves) that stairs are kept as a safe area sealed off from the fire by those shutters, which can be opened later once the fire has subdued. The more you know! Edit: and looking at them again, hotel Delfino's having a gap at the top seems like awful quality assurance, since the curtains are also meant to keep that area free from smoke, whoops
You finally did what Every other Sunshine-Tuber couldn't, you covered all of Sunshine. Almost feels like a part of my life gets closure but that might sound a little corny. I doubt you will do it but I hope you cover Banjo Kazzoie Nuts and Bolts some day, its my favourite game of all time and its surprisingly rich with details and tidbits, heck if you don't do it I might. These seem like a perfect way to cover that game
I've probably watched this video 6 or 7 times by now just because i absolutely love how you just talk about anything and everything in this game! And this time around I'm even using it for a 100% playthrough
This has genuinely got to be one of the best videos ive ever watched. So many things I never knew from one of my favorite child hood game, all covered in such incredible detail! 2CPhoenix, this is an amazing video.
This is probably my favorite RUclips video, at this point. I've rewatched it like.. four times lol. Not in one sitting each mind; I like to just put it on and watch it in chunks before bed. I adore Phoenix's humor and while the Sly series was great, I'm _far_ more familiar with Sunshine and watching him lovingly tear it apart is just such a treat lol.
i watched all 7h of this in the background while drawing! that was very fun. i knew next to nothing about this game, but this series made me wanna play it :) the way you present your content is amazing and very thorough! thanks for everything you do
This vid has been a revolving sleeping vid since you released the supercut, loved the individual vids and love the culmination. This is to me the definitive Mario sunshine retrospective
Incredible video, I loved every second. Interesting that Noki Bay was rushed. As a kid it was probably my favorite level, and I never noticed that it may have been rushed in some ways. Love the music, the vibe, everything, love spending time in Noki Bay.
Hey dude your an amazing RUclipsr with the satisfaction of a professional. All you need is something else to give your heart to & you’ve given 100% to this game so your dedication to what you love shines like a star shine!
Fun fact about Glooper Blooper: During E3 2002, Nintendo set up a demo of Sunshine where you could play through Delfino Plaza and Ricco Harbor. RUclipsr Joshua Hardin who was there at the time was able to crash the game booth at the crates where you release Glooper Blooper for the first time.
I just played sunshine for the first time on switch. I have played Mario 64 for 20 years, but finally got to play sunshine. What an amazing game. I happened to get this video recommended after the playthrough. I can say without a doubt this is my top 3 favorite youtube videos ever. What an amazing masterpiece you have made my guy. I will make sure to rewatch this video when im cleaning, cooking or working and in the mood for sunshine. Thanks!
Im with the flu these days, and this video just saved me. Having something to play without having to move was really nice, but also, for being a 7 hour video, the quality was amazing! Great job and video, I hope you get tons of views!
Finally someone mentioned that you can do petey pirhana out of order! I am almost 100% sure there is at least 1 other shine you can actually get out of order but i cant remember what it is right now.
This has become one of my favorite youtube series ever. Please keep making videos like this! Maybe other mario games. But honestly I'd watch you break down any game you do such a thorough job it's enthralling
My first exposure to sunshine was one I barley remembered until I saw the opening cutscene again years later. The first time I saw sunshine was in a McDonald’s play place on a McDonald’s GameCube kiosk, I was too young to figure out how to operate it but I had major flashbacks to it when I saw it
I love these kinds of videos. Sunshine was the first game i ever played as a kid and i loved it, so im soo glad to be able to watch something like that
These videos got me through a tough time and are easily my favorite Sunshine videos on the site. Super Mario Sunshine is one of my favorite games of all time, I love it to death and have 100%-ed it regularly usually one sitting. A great compilation overall, the only issue I noticed is the Media Offline at 4:28:34, 4:43:02, 4:43:29, 5:06:55, 5:44:41, and 6:31:51
Outstanding. I've always been so fascinated by Mario Sunshine and have watched many RUclips videos about it over the years. It's such a wonderful game but is also infuriatingly unfinished, and there are so many mysteries surrounding it. I figured I'd learnt all there was to know at this point, but boy was I wrong! This is by far the best series on Mario Sunshine I've ever seen. I love your presentation style and your depth of knowledge about the game is astounding. Thank you so, so much for putting this all together. I'm sure I'll continue to watch this over and over!
Amazing video, watched while eating my dinner over 4 different days. So much nostalgia and just so happy that so many people out there appreciated this game the same as me :-)
1:23:48 This isn't a complain, just an observation. For as thorough as this deep dive is, I'm surprised you didn't talk about the fact the sunflowers grow wherever you defeat the snooza koopas : ) I remember messing around as a kid and seeing the limits of how far I could grow them lol
FLUDD's death was impactful because people can get really attached to their tools. I feel a little sad whenever I have to get a new kitchen knife or even a pair of headphones that got too old.
This has quickly become one of my favorite video series of all time. Super Mario Sunshine is one of my favorite games of all time. It was one of the first hyper fixations I ever had. And I thought I knew everything about it. How wrong I was. I will be watching this for years to come. And I can't wait to see what you do next!
Man oh man I just finished the video and boy was there many times where I went to hit the like button and saw it already liked. So much fun! Loved the analysis and witty writing. Great stuff and this has become my favorite video in recent memory.
When I originally saw this video on my recommended I laughed and thought to myself who could talk about this game for 7 straight hours. Let alone me sitting through the whole video and enjoying it. Here I am after just finishing all 7 hours of the video and all I can say is wow. 2CPhoenix this video was amazing. You have gained a new subscriber my friend. Your comedy style and calm voice had me hooked instantly. Also the editing was wild. I can't even imagine how long this video took to make. When you showed the windows in the Serena Beach hotel and compared them to the inside of the hotel I was blown away. Such a small mundane detail I never put a second of thought too but your analysis of it had me hooked. I am now going to binge watch all of your other videos. Thank you.
Wow, incredible work on all of these videos! I love taking the time to appreciate all the little details of a game that the devs clearly put a lot of time into, even if we only see some of them for mere moments. Thanks for making these! And the combined 7 hour version is perfect background for while I work
As someone who was introduced to this channel via this video, I just want to say that I stuck around for the whole thing and that you did an amazing job really breaking down all the little things I just didn't even consider. You had an excellent narration style that really kept my interest through an entire 7 hours, granted I split it up over a couple of days. All in all, well done and I look forward to other deep dive videos of Mario games, if that's something you had in mind, *the galaxy series cough cough*
You definitely got a sub from me!! I LOVE you looking into some of my favorite childhood games! I can’t even imagine how long these videos take! Amazing job! I can’t wait to see what you discover about my other early favorite 2000’s childhood games!! 💙👏
this video was recommended to me just after getting my hands on 3d all stars and 100% sms. even having just played the game, i found the video super entertaining, and i learned plenty of things i didnt know. honestly just makes me wanna play it again. love the videos, and enjoying the kh deep dive!!
This is the best fcking video I have watched in so long, I watched it within 2 days. The amount of work and detail put into the video is equal to that of Mario Sunshine itself, the love you have for the game is very tangible. Thank you so much for this gem, I am a new fan and I look forward to what your next project might be!🔆🔅☀️
PEAK Best video on Sunshine EVER created and I'm NOT kidding. Excellent EXCELLENT job dude! (and it's whatever but I really like how it's perfectly 7 hours. Beautiful~)
This gives me "A brief 12 hour analysis of the Phantom Menace" vibes lol Edit: I was not expecting a JoJo reference at 5 hours 36 minutes and 50 seconds into the video but it was much appreciated.
I just finished and this is an extremely thorough analysis on par with that 12 hour Phantom Menace video. Amazing work Edit: also, i miss the town chuckster shine throw ALL. THE. TIME.

I got time.
Me two
Thank you for validating a large portion of my childhood. I was born in '98 so Sunshine was my first real dive into Mario♥️
Same here
I was born in 97 and it was my first 3D Mario too, we had a super NES with all Mario world and all stars when I was little so I was already familiar but I remember going to my friend's house and having my mind blown when he showed me this game. Wound up getting a gamecube for christmas that year.
Me and my child ass took "cross over to that shore and fond some assistance" EXTREMELY LITERALLY in which i tried to swim to the island for help
I was glued to this game as a kid but for some reason the manatee boss really kicked my butt. I tried and failed and failed and failed. One day I found that somebody left the disc logo side down and a chocolate bar had melted nearby running over it. As sad as I was to lose my game, I joked with myself that I 'lost' because it was like the enemy mess I was supposed to clean up ended up ruining my disc in a roundabout imagination sort of way.

when i was a kid (like between ages 5-9) my fear of rollercoasters ran so deep that anytime my brother played the first episode of pinna park i would cry. this is one of my favourite games of all time and i had sooo much fun watching this video! thanks to you for putting it all together and thanks to all the sources that helped you!
I've watched this at least 3 times now and even started a new run of Sunshine. This is my new favorite video ever.
I've watched this video in like 1 session... I absolutely loved it. Your commentary style is smooth and refreshing. I never once grew bored and really enjoyed all the exploration of themes, characters and the game itself that I've never seen before.
I've seen and played Sunshine like dozens of times. I fondly remember just chilling in these areas as a kid-- this video really brought me back :)
Thanks for such a wonderful masterpiece!
I have a perpetual nostalgic fondness for Sunshine but don't really have the time or energy to boot it up nowadays, so I honestly think living vicariously through this epic document of a video from time to time will more than fill the void. Thank you for this
Dude I just want to say I respect this video so much. Making a video this long is not the norm and I really enjoyed watching this video on my free time at home, work, caught some of it in an Uber, and I’ve just been invested.
Sunshine was my favorite game as a 7 year old and I never got to beat it until the Switch version came out 2 decades later and I will say I was a little torn when I finished it because I never really realized this game has half the zones 64 had. But still I still felt the same amount of fun with this one as I do all the games in the franchise and it’s so entertaining to go back and see a deep dive of everything I missed in the last 22 years lol
Thanks for letting me relive my childhood. You really touched my heart with this video
Weird how a lot of people don’t know the very simple trick for fighting Petey on his second battle. You can just enter first person and aim and spray him and he’ll fall down. When I found this out I was pissed cause I’d spent so many playthroughs trying to shoot him with Poinks.
i'm taking an 8 hour flight in a few days and i'm so happy to see these vids in one big compilation! sunshine is one of my favorite games of all time, and these vids were such a nostalgia trip. thank you for all your hard work and dedication!!
6:54:16 Pulling out the first Fi music for this kind of character discussion is just perfect, bravo.
Amazing video, I havent played this game since I was a kid and this really makes me want to give it another go. 7 hours well spent, the depth of knowledge and fun was never boring.
I love the format and extra information. I've played this game a million times and I learned a lot. I noticed you used a clip from Ty the Tasmanian Tiger. I'd love a breakdown of that game as well as it's one of my childhood favorites.
I would absolutely love to see you breakdown any of the Paper Mario games as one of your next projects. Especially TTYD! I believe you possess incredible talent for this genre of content
I never watched a deep dive on anything before, so maybe it was my love of this game that got me to click, but it was your script and game knowledge that kept me coming back! Amazing job, and thank you for this wonderful journey into my childhood.
P.s My favorite level was Noki Bay, although the Eel level scared the piss out of me
P.p.s The “heat haze” effect blew my mind as a kid lol, definitely a good addition
i didnt even realize this was a compilation of your own videos until maybe 4 hours in! now i gotta go check out your other content! great video for a great game i grew up playing but somehow never actually beat, probably cuz i was so young and playing it off and on, maybe ill go and finally beat it on my all stars copy
Watching videos that talk about blue coins in this game is so weird to me as it makes me realize - being able to relatively easily 100% - that I’m one of those “have played this game so much I know the coins and just kind of get”
Love the video ! It’s made life OK :D
Why yes I will watch a 7 hour video essay on Super Mario Sunshine and hang on every word
Really the best Sunshine analysis I've ever seen! I learned a lot of things from this series and it was so enjoyable to watch! Gonna miss these videos so much!
Every time you say “the Nintended way” it takes me by surprise and puts a smile on my face lol
Something really neat that I noticed in the Nintendo Museum Direct today that I never even thought about-- the FLUDD boxes in Mario Sunshine (or whatever they're called, the boxes that give you nozzles) are meant to be this game's version of question mark blocks? They're included in an exhibit thats a lineup of every question block design.
I wonder if they’re gonna have sunshine merch
4:28:33 this is far from the only one, but there are several instances of this "media not found" screen that weren't in the original videos (I think the first one is in the Noki Bay section, but most of them are in the Pianta Village section).
There is also a rather long one at 5:44:40 when Christmas95 gets a shout out for finding a reflection oddity.
Oddly enough the text Christmas95 is still there over the Media Offline screen.
It's stated in the pinned comment, since he switched computers some of his assets got moved around and as such became unlinked.
@@DarkStarCoreX this comment was made before the pinned one
@@JakoBpyroTech Oh, ignore me then
Am I really going to watch a 7 hour compilation of videos I've already watched?
Of course I am!
Time to re-watch this pure Kino again, now as one long video
Fantasizing about how pretty a purple and blue paint-goo would have looked in the bay 😢 It's my favorite level
This 7 hour reel is amazing, I love it.
Oh wow, I watched this a while ago, but after going to Japan, the steel shutter on the staircase for Hotel Delfino is actually based on fire safety procedures over there, idea being (if my memory serves) that stairs are kept as a safe area sealed off from the fire by those shutters, which can be opened later once the fire has subdued. The more you know!
Edit: and looking at them again, hotel Delfino's having a gap at the top seems like awful quality assurance, since the curtains are also meant to keep that area free from smoke, whoops
You finally did what Every other Sunshine-Tuber couldn't, you covered all of Sunshine. Almost feels like a part of my life gets closure but that might sound a little corny. I doubt you will do it but I hope you cover Banjo Kazzoie Nuts and Bolts some day, its my favourite game of all time and its surprisingly rich with details and tidbits, heck if you don't do it I might. These seem like a perfect way to cover that game
I've probably watched this video 6 or 7 times by now just because i absolutely love how you just talk about anything and everything in this game! And this time around I'm even using it for a 100% playthrough
This has genuinely got to be one of the best videos ive ever watched. So many things I never knew from one of my favorite child hood game, all covered in such incredible detail! 2CPhoenix, this is an amazing video.
This is probably my favorite RUclips video, at this point. I've rewatched it like.. four times lol. Not in one sitting each mind; I like to just put it on and watch it in chunks before bed. I adore Phoenix's humor and while the Sly series was great, I'm _far_ more familiar with Sunshine and watching him lovingly tear it apart is just such a treat lol.
i watched all 7h of this in the background while drawing! that was very fun. i knew next to nothing about this game, but this series made me wanna play it :) the way you present your content is amazing and very thorough! thanks for everything you do
This here is perfect please keep doing this.
Ive been enjoying this video over the last week with no loss of intrest. 🙌
This has been great entertainment on one of my most nostalgic games as I recover from a bout of the flu. Fantastic deep dive! Keep up the great work!
This vid has been a revolving sleeping vid since you released the supercut, loved the individual vids and love the culmination. This is to me the definitive Mario sunshine retrospective
Incredible video, I loved every second. Interesting that Noki Bay was rushed. As a kid it was probably my favorite level, and I never noticed that it may have been rushed in some ways. Love the music, the vibe, everything, love spending time in Noki Bay.
Hey dude your an amazing RUclipsr with the satisfaction of a professional. All you need is something else to give your heart to & you’ve given 100% to this game so your dedication to what you love shines like a star shine!
Fun fact about Glooper Blooper: During E3 2002, Nintendo set up a demo of Sunshine where you could play through Delfino Plaza and Ricco Harbor. RUclipsr Joshua Hardin who was there at the time was able to crash the game booth at the crates where you release Glooper Blooper for the first time.
I just played sunshine for the first time on switch. I have played Mario 64 for 20 years, but finally got to play sunshine. What an amazing game. I happened to get this video recommended after the playthrough. I can say without a doubt this is my top 3 favorite youtube videos ever. What an amazing masterpiece you have made my guy. I will make sure to rewatch this video when im cleaning, cooking or working and in the mood for sunshine. Thanks!
Im with the flu these days, and this video just saved me. Having something to play without having to move was really nice, but also, for being a 7 hour video, the quality was amazing!
Great job and video, I hope you get tons of views!
Finally someone mentioned that you can do petey pirhana out of order! I am almost 100% sure there is at least 1 other shine you can actually get out of order but i cant remember what it is right now.
This has become one of my favorite youtube series ever. Please keep making videos like this! Maybe other mario games. But honestly I'd watch you break down any game you do such a thorough job it's enthralling
My first exposure to sunshine was one I barley remembered until I saw the opening cutscene again years later. The first time I saw sunshine was in a McDonald’s play place on a McDonald’s GameCube kiosk, I was too young to figure out how to operate it but I had major flashbacks to it when I saw it
I love these kinds of videos. Sunshine was the first game i ever played as a kid and i loved it, so im soo glad to be able to watch something like that
Binged this entire thing while I was at work! This compilation rocks and I love all the information and comedy provided keep it up!!
5:36:05 biggest laugh for me, glad I watched the whole thing at once so I could understand the in-house reference. Great work, definitely subbing
These videos got me through a tough time and are easily my favorite Sunshine videos on the site. Super Mario Sunshine is one of my favorite games of all time, I love it to death and have 100%-ed it regularly usually one sitting.
A great compilation overall, the only issue I noticed is the Media Offline at 4:28:34, 4:43:02, 4:43:29, 5:06:55, 5:44:41, and 6:31:51
Outstanding. I've always been so fascinated by Mario Sunshine and have watched many RUclips videos about it over the years. It's such a wonderful game but is also infuriatingly unfinished, and there are so many mysteries surrounding it. I figured I'd learnt all there was to know at this point, but boy was I wrong! This is by far the best series on Mario Sunshine I've ever seen. I love your presentation style and your depth of knowledge about the game is astounding. Thank you so, so much for putting this all together. I'm sure I'll continue to watch this over and over!
Amazing video, watched while eating my dinner over 4 different days. So much nostalgia and just so happy that so many people out there appreciated this game the same as me :-)
1:23:48 This isn't a complain, just an observation. For as thorough as this deep dive is, I'm surprised you didn't talk about the fact the sunflowers grow wherever you defeat the snooza koopas : ) I remember messing around as a kid and seeing the limits of how far I could grow them lol
i love how thorough u are without being boring omg thank you
FLUDD's death was impactful because people can get really attached to their tools. I feel a little sad whenever I have to get a new kitchen knife or even a pair of headphones that got too old.
This video is awesome! Never thought I’d spend a whole day watching a Super Mario Sunshine video, but here I am!
What an excellent video! I truly loved this. The little jingle of saving at the end legit made me kinda emotional.
The detail, passion, and commentary in this video is incredible. Thank you for this nostalgic gem. ❤
This has quickly become one of my favorite video series of all time. Super Mario Sunshine is one of my favorite games of all time. It was one of the first hyper fixations I ever had. And I thought I knew everything about it. How wrong I was. I will be watching this for years to come. And I can't wait to see what you do next!
This is incredible. You must've spent hundreds of hours making this. It's crazy. Thank you for this gem!
Man oh man I just finished the video and boy was there many times where I went to hit the like button and saw it already liked. So much fun! Loved the analysis and witty writing. Great stuff and this has become my favorite video in recent memory.
When I originally saw this video on my recommended I laughed and thought to myself who could talk about this game for 7 straight hours. Let alone me sitting through the whole video and enjoying it. Here I am after just finishing all 7 hours of the video and all I can say is wow. 2CPhoenix this video was amazing. You have gained a new subscriber my friend. Your comedy style and calm voice had me hooked instantly. Also the editing was wild. I can't even imagine how long this video took to make. When you showed the windows in the Serena Beach hotel and compared them to the inside of the hotel I was blown away. Such a small mundane detail I never put a second of thought too but your analysis of it had me hooked. I am now going to binge watch all of your other videos. Thank you.
Wow, incredible work on all of these videos! I love taking the time to appreciate all the little details of a game that the devs clearly put a lot of time into, even if we only see some of them for mere moments. Thanks for making these! And the combined 7 hour version is perfect background for while I work
As someone who was introduced to this channel via this video, I just want to say that I stuck around for the whole thing and that you did an amazing job really breaking down all the little things I just didn't even consider. You had an excellent narration style that really kept my interest through an entire 7 hours, granted I split it up over a couple of days. All in all, well done and I look forward to other deep dive videos of Mario games, if that's something you had in mind, *the galaxy series cough cough*
What a ride... Thank you for this beautiful ride down memory lane!
You definitely got a sub from me!! I LOVE you looking into some of my favorite childhood games! I can’t even imagine how long these videos take! Amazing job! I can’t wait to see what you discover about my other early favorite 2000’s childhood games!! 💙👏
This is one of the greatest videos on RUclips
Fantastic video man! Between this and your Sly 2 stuff I'm really excited to see what content you create in the future!
I absolutely adore the format of this video. I've never watched anything that presents this kind of information in this order using this framing.
This is dope. your hard work has let me relive a predominant memory of my youth.
this video was recommended to me just after getting my hands on 3d all stars and 100% sms. even having just played the game, i found the video super entertaining, and i learned plenty of things i didnt know. honestly just makes me wanna play it again. love the videos, and enjoying the kh deep dive!!
RUclips has blessed me on this day with more long form Mario content. So happy
This is the best fcking video I have watched in so long, I watched it within 2 days. The amount of work and detail put into the video is equal to that of Mario Sunshine itself, the love you have for the game is very tangible. Thank you so much for this gem, I am a new fan and I look forward to what your next project might be!🔆🔅☀️
PEAK
Best video on Sunshine EVER created and I'm NOT kidding. Excellent EXCELLENT job dude! (and it's whatever but I really like how it's perfectly 7 hours. Beautiful~)
This gives me "A brief 12 hour analysis of the Phantom Menace" vibes lol
Edit: I was not expecting a JoJo reference at 5 hours 36 minutes and 50 seconds into the video but it was much appreciated.
yea i watched that too
Damn, I'm starting to wonder if I'm inadvertently part of some long form content viewing community
I just finished and this is an extremely thorough analysis on par with that 12 hour Phantom Menace video. Amazing work
Edit: also, i miss the town chuckster shine throw ALL. THE. TIME.
