favourite plumber returns in the third Paper Mario game, bringing a different perspective to the series as he calls on old friends - and foes - to help him tackle a mysterious enemy from a bizarre parallel universe. Lead Mario in his quest to overthrow the evil Count Bleck before he succeeds in creating a Chaos Heart and bringing about the end of the world as we know it, playing as Luigi, Princess Peach and Bowser along the way as you free them from captivity. With the Wii Remote held sideways like the traditional NES controller, Mario's quest starts off as a classic platform adventure - but appearances can be deceiving! With a press of the A Button, your perspective on the world changes from 2D to 3D, and the seemingly flat worlds gain hidden depth, with plenty of secrets to be discovered. An involving mixture of RPG and platform elements, Super Paper Mario offers a huge adventure spread over eight eye-catching environments with something new to discover around every corner. Enlist the aid of Pixl sidekicks along your path to gain special skills. By pointing the Wii Remote at the screen for example, you can get secret information and reveal hidden objects along the way!

Advantages: Fantastic Graphics, Amazing Gameplay, lives up to hype Disadvantages: None
...Mario Sunshine is undoubtabely the greates game so far to grace the Cube. The graphics are unbelievable and the gameplay is more advnced than any mario game to come before it. With it being six years since Mario64 (also a groundbreaking game) people have been itching for a new mario game. Sunshine is worth the wait. Mirror, Water and other reflective effects are pulled off pefectly. The features of the water cannon device FLUDD are amazing and the whole game is as bright as... well sunshine. The Draw distance (at what distance the objects are drawn) is huge and the game runs like a well oiled cog. Perfect. Thumbs up Nintendo.
Go Mario. Gamecube owners should buy this to see their console's power...

Advantages: What Nintendo does best - Pure Playability Disadvantages: Not the Mario 64 better we hoped for
...Well to say that I'd been waiting for this game to be released is an understatement. Mario 64 was and still is my all time favorite game on any platform.
Mario Sunshine is a great game and will not disapoint, especially Mario new commers but it does lack that certain magic of 64.
This game is as you would expect from Nintendo as playable as they come and I would definately recommend you adding this to your gamecube collection.
The levels are on whole very well designed, a few have silly parts that you just luck through.
All in all a great game that is worthy of any gamecube owner especially now at the reduced price that it is selling for.
Order this game ..................

Advantages: Addictive Game Disadvantages: Bosses Not Difficult
...Whilst I own a GameCube at the moment, this game is somewhat better than 'SuperMario Sunshine.' I
remember playing this game and other NES classics
on the weekend. I think that with each console
advance, the addictiveness has become less. In my
opinion, the old NES will always be the best but I
found that Mario 64 was a decent game to play.
I prefer this game to 'SuperMario Sunshine' because the game is just more enjoyable to play.
Although I said there were no disadvantages as such, I'd say that the biggest letdown of the game is the bosses. Then again, maybe it's a good thing considering all the tough challenges in the game. The ending was a let down for me because when you complete a game, you expect a half-decent ending.
I'd still recommend Mario 64 to anybody....

Super Mario 3 was originally on the NES, then SNES with updated graphics, it is now on the Gameboy Advance. This is great for all Mario fans, I loved the game when I was little and it was a must buy when I bought my Nintendo handheld console.
