Yeah what the fuck is with this game?

I decided to check out games on Dolphin since the new update(I typically avoid nintendo games) and Sunshine in particular stands out. The art design is on point at every turn, the controls are solid, the music is nice, and the goals are fun.

And yes, the water still looks really good. It's not necessarily realistic but it looks great. Why do people hate Sunshine so much? I am certainly not seeing it, but maybe its because I've played very few Nintendo games.

While we're here, what else should I check out on Dolphin?

consider literally mission on OP's pic where you have to surf on sponge thingy to collect X coins on water

after collecting all coins which is not that fast to actually get the star you have to jump on pier and touch star

it's harder than actual coin collecting because if you miss the jump on pier YOU DIE and you restart the race all over again

that's how unfinished that game

>>342933334
Nah. It does. Someone ported the Unleashed shaders back into Generations, and it looks a lot better.

Because the gameplay is shovelwary and looks clearly rushed once you get around the middle of the game and levels with shitty physics start popping out, still nice, but compared to other 3D Mario games it's a letdown. Specially since jumping is casualized most of the time due to Fludd.

see I actually did that mission you're takling about, the squid race. OPs pic is NOT the squid race, but even if it was I fail to see how you failing an objective and starting over means its a bad game. Git gud anon.

I'm not really into Star Wars, but I liked KOTOR and dabbled a bit with Galaxies way back when so sure why not, on the list Rogue Squadron goes.

>>
>>342936570
I enjoyed the change-up in the jumping, allowed for some parts to get extra super fucking difficult. Unlike later games.

I would say any parts of the game feel shoveled out, except for the bloody blue coins. And the cinematics.

And some of the later challenges are almost impossible just to find, what with level entrances being hidden and the actual challenge starting at some arbitrary spot in the level.

Sunshine never really had good looking water, from what I remember, but the water did feel great. When you were jet packing along it you felt every bump and there was real resistance. Same with Wave Race Blue Storm. A lot of games at the time had better looking water (The OG Xbox always had games with good looking water) but many of them didn't feel like water.

>gameplay is shovelwarey

This is the first time I've seen this sentiment.

>Compared to other 3D Mario games its a letdown

Maybe to 64. Its a lot better than Galaxy 1 and 2 to me. Maybe its because Galaxy 1 and 2 have levels that are just flagpole levels that are just stars at the end for the overwhelming bulk of the game, I'll admit that the level design is great in those games, but they aren't the same as 64 and Sunshine in terms of level goals.

It's kinda funny. Even when people say they aren't Nintendo fans, or avoid Nitnendo games, they typically have one or two older Nintendo games they really dig.

I had a SNES growing up, but mostly had games like Cliffhanger and Animaniacs, licensed games. Pilotwings was one of the games I put more time into. If all Nintendo games are that good, that'd be great, but I still see so much hatred for Nintendo everywhere from everyone whereas all the appreciation comes from people that grew up with Nintendo(which means they can't be trusted) and literal autists.

I dont know, maybe its time to be less cynical. Sunshine has been a lot of fun. Maybe I'll play Mario 64 next or maybe find another game Nintendo fans love to hate. What's another game like Sunshine where the opinion on it is divisive?

Never played Metroid. Don't care, will play anyway.

But you know what, I will go ahead and maybe play Zero Mission first. I actually own that game, some GBA carts were dumped on me by a bud a few years ago. I think the only game I tried was this one called Sigma's Star Saga and after dabbling with it I just packed the unit and games away somewhere.

The fact the you ALSO have to grab the star at the end in a very peculiar manner is an obvious dev oversight and a sign of lack of polish that might be passable in your regular glitch infested Bethesda game but is unheard of and unacceptable in mainline Mario.

I hope you guys don't mind me asking, but I can't find ANYTHING on this:

Super Mario Sunshine looks and runs perfectly on Dolphin except for the water, which has a layer of white that gets bigger the closer one gets to it. I've determined that the antisotrophic filtering is what causes this. Is there a way to turn it off completely?

>>342938718
Do you understand what videogames are? Namely Mario.

They are a sequence of videogame challenges as described by their objectives.

Objective in that particular mission is collecting X coins. It's not particularly hard and you will only die if collide with a wall or buoy.

AFTER you did that, shine appears on pier and you have to go back and do a jump from water surface to pier, flop around there and reach the shine. You only have attempt because if you end up on sand behind the pier -- you will DIE.

If you fail this jump or it's direction or speed even -- you will DIE.

This is NOT what is described by an objective and what's worse harder than that -- it is much harder that described for all the wrong reasons.

Imagine if you did simple collectathon mission and at the you had to do frame perfect jump (which is not even properly described) and failure to execute it would have invalidate previous challenge.

No, you do another lap as an idiot tax for missing an incredibly easy to get shine.

The speed maxes out quick so it's next to impossible to screw that up. And you have a clear path approaching it so that's easy too.

Obviously their intent was to make it fluid, grab it at the end in a "cool" high speed fashion, fitting for the level. It's not the devs fault that you need to git gud

you are not listening

if you fail this one attempt at the jump that feels completely unnecessary -- you have to do this easy collectathon again then you get another try jump in at this "collect coins" mission

They should placed shine somewhere on a water instead forcing players to do awkward unreliable jump on a pier

They also should have finished the game in general

>Sunshine never really had good looking water
Like hell it didn't. It was very impressive for its time.
>Second to it are the water effects. It should come as no surprise that a title based on a tropical island has stunning water. Almost everywhere you turn you'll see a stretching sea of sparkling water. Notably, it is not flat or boring. Nintendo has mastered the physics and "glitter." The rolling waters feature several texture layers that provide a near-perfect shimmering effect under the bright sun. It is exactly the effect that Wave Race: Blue Storm was missing. Refraction, which bends the images behind water, is also done nicely. You'll see plenty of it as you spray water around the worlds. The reflections on still water are also a pleasant touch. If you create puddles below Mario, you'll see his reflection appear before it evaporates.
- IGN, 2002
> The game's water effects are amazing when seen in the ocean surrounding the island and other bodies of water found throughout the game, and the water puddles left by the cannon make for some nice reflection effects.
- Gamespot, 2002

It's a testament to how good it was that they reused the same water shaders in Galaxy and it still looked good.
>>
>>342939932
>Obviously their intent was to make it fluid
if they wanted to make it fluid they should given shine right as you get the last coin

Nobody wanted to do this in any way because looked over this, it's just intern placed the shine where you start the mission "because it makes sense dur" and then they skipped testing phase

No, it's a mini-game that requires accurate movements within a platformer game which requires accurate movements. Would it have been fine if it literally told you "Collect the coins and then jump to get the Shine"? I don't think it would make a difference to you. Your problem is clearly that you think the jump is too hard. A rewording of the objective won't change that. Stop being autistic and get better at the game.

the mere fact you have to phrase it like "do X and then do Y" shows that this is disjointed and wrong

to collect coins you just have swim past them and it won't kill you if you miss them first time

but shine at the end REQUIRES jump and if you fail it -- you have to redo coin part all over again

I think it's been a long time since you played this game because none of that is correct.
There are no logs floating on the sides, they're all behind the dock. You absolutely can jump at it from the left side (although the right has a fence and a boat). There also isn't a beach, it's a ramp, and it's way too far away from the dock to "land on" just by missing the shine sprite. If you miss the jump there is plenty of room to land back in the water and loop around for another go. In fact, exactly that happens in the video I took it from.

It's a pitifully easy jump and I could do it when I was 9.

just look at your own pic

if you jump from the left side and miss the shine you will crash into the fence UNLESS you are already pivoting away from the centre in which case you won't get the Shine so what's the point

if you do from left side and miss it you end up in the water behind the pier with logs on your left and i think there is a cruise ship on your right, so you are boxed in by a log, beach and a ship and have no space to make a wide turn and go back

but yeah i should have just probably done as shown on the pic -- from the right side

usually mario games don't allow such blatant errors, but it was sunshine which was rushed out so it came out the way it did

If you do it at an angle from the top left post you'll have a clear path to the shine sprite and land back in the water if you miss. Likewise, from the angle in the picture you'll land back in the water if you miss.
There are a lot of ways to mess it up but it's not nearly as impossible as you were describing. Perfectly doable.
