I first played it in 2004, shortly after my family got a GameCube. I fell in love with it, and it's one of my favorite games. It's one of those defining video games in my life. The music is so terrific and adds so much to the atmosphere. It still blows my mind how they got the water to look so good on a cartoony game on the GameCube.
I do want Nintendo to keep Mario from getting stale, but I think a direct Super Mario Sunshine sequel would actually help with that. It's very different from most Mario platformers.
