Sunshine is still incredibly underrated, even to this day. Gets no respect for how unique it was relative to the other titles. Mario controls like a dream in that game.
I wanted to buy the all star pack for nintendo switch... but I was too young and didn't have a switch then. I always found sunshine more... "Unique" in a similar way to galaxy kinda...
@@Mkdenn I disagree. If you only count when Fludd is locked away, then maybe so. But Fludd is an extension of Mario's full control. Everything is way more responsive than what we had at the time. Even jumping and sliding felt good.
i woke up to this playing due to autoplay this morning, i have only seen 3d land, world and odyssey so far, but this is still a beautiful video and the end got me really emotional, so i‘m gonna watch everything before that now amazing job!
As someone studying music theory and composition, the Mario games, especially the 3D ones have always amazed me and been a big inspiration. I can't begin to explain what these games have meant to me, growing up with Mario Galaxy one and two is probably the reason why I even love music so much or that I am who I am today.
I fell half asleep while watching the super Mario Odyssey part and what you were saying influenced my dream and I was dreaming of a game that would be the perfect sequel to Odyssey
i love this retrospective. while i am not great at 3D Mario or even just 3D games in general, it was a treat to listen to you about 2:40 in so far. love this
Dude, UA-cam is wack nowadays. We got ppl like you making awesome videos like this and still flying under the radar of so many users. I don't get it, but I hope UA-cam eventually gets things straight and puts small channels like yours out there.
Additionally, the algorithm is based on timing relative to release. If people watch, like, comment within an hour of the release, it will show a *lot* more people compared to anything that comes after
You can probably tell your long retrospective essays are doing the best. Just found your channel like 20 mins ago. Love the voice, presentation, and content style. I like to watch these long retrospectives while falling asleep or cooking. Have you thought about doing retrospective series on other IPs like Metroid or Donkey Kong? Anyways, you're fucking killing it, loving the video so far.
I have watched this every single night (and the entire 3D series playlist) for the last two weeks and it is now just what I fall asleep too. I loved your video and enthusiasm for Mario so so much. Then after finishing it, I found your passion and voice so soothing it’s now just how I fall asleep 😂 Keep being passionate & making videos ✨
I love wario in sm64ds! Yeah his jumping sucks but he can beat enemies like the snowmen way easier than the others. Picking up signs and chucking them at enemies is a fun way to defeat them, and I just recently found out he can actually kill tox blox! You just have to wait till it’s on top of you and then punch. I also love breaking the big balls that roll down at you from bobombs mountain and the huge rocks in hazy maze cave
I know its really only ever been seen in 3D Mario games, but I would love if Super Mario Bros Wonder ended off with a insanely difficult stage like The Perfect Run or Champions Road.
If you're looking for a fair challenge like them in a 2d platformer, I could not recommend celeste more. Chuck it on your steam wishlist at least if you haven't played it before, its incredible
The United States harasses victims of deviant sadistic abuse by pedophiles who are misusing the technology they have access to in the military. They are using technology that is meant to keep Americans safe to spy on children, show them deviant content through hacking their devices, and touch them inappropriately or drug them. Victims of this crime are raped and abused and then as they get older are then stalked and harassed both on and offline by creeps that are helping their friends get away with their crimes. They sabotage the lives of their victims to make them as hellish as possible, and some victims don’t even know they’re victims because much of the rape happens when they are drugged or asleep. The only reason you may know is because they may leave behind physical evidence like body fluids, bruises, or scratches. The men who do this think that they can shame their victims into silence because some of the actions are coerced. They think that the more depraved they can be with innocent children the more likely they will be too ashamed to speak out. At least some men with access to this technology are using to abuse and rape children. The victims are left with little recourse because of ten they won’t know who raped them. They try to invade every facet of their victims' lives to try to shame and mock them into silence.
All 3D Mario games are still amazing and are among some of my favorites of all time! Especially both Galaxies and Odyssey. I also still love Mario 64 as well.
Super Mario Galaxy is my absolute favorite Mario title of all time, even over 2. The memories of the many long hours spent playing it as a kid both solo and with my brother and being delighted and floored by the visuals and the movement and the story. I need to go pick up an old wii and play it again, man, the switch gameplay just ain't the same.
I agree about odyssey. When I first played Galaxy 2 i always thought how in the world can they ever top that game. After playing odyssey i was shocked and glad that they were able to prove me wrong.
Mario Galaxy was my first 3d mario game. The soundtrack on display is so magical and unique due to it being a live orchestra recording, rather than software. Nintendo has yet to surpass it
It being live helps it, but it doesn’t automatically make it better. For instance, many of the best songs in that game are synthesized. Also, a lot of people in the comments are repeating the live orchestra idea- Did you hear this in another video?
wow-just found myself completely binging all of your content, the quality for such a small channel is crazy. really enjoyed this video especially; subbed 😎
On the giant head: There's a British guy named Giles Goddard who moved to Kyoto to help Nintendo with Star Fox, and he stayed with them for the N64 era. He was messing around with rigging and animation and he made a model of Mario's head. He put some ping pong balls on his face and setup a camera to track his own head, and then at some point Miyamoto walked past his desk and had assumed it would be part of the final game. The interactivity with the controller was meant to show off the N64's rigging capability.
What an incredible video, I had myself laughing and crying the whole way through. Really goes to show just how much the series we love has changed and grown! Here’s to more videos like this! And here’s to more Mario! Let’s-a-go!
Actually, Charles Martine's first "game" debut was in "Mario Teaches Typing" from 1991 :) But Nintendo themselves seem to have forgotten that fact as we saw in the Charles Martinet retirement post/video :D Also, you are able to get hints for the purple coins in Odyssey from the Bowser Odyssey Amiibo. I know, it's locked behind a gadget you have to buy, but the possibility is there. The next Mario game should just allow anyone to use those hints without paying for it. Btw my ranking would be: 1. Galaxy 2 2. Odyssey 3. Sunshine 4. Galaxy 5. 64 DS 6. 64 7. Bowser's Fury 8. 3D World 9. 3D Land
@@RoseQuartz692 Imo it's one of the best remakes one could ask for bc you get all that extra content rather than just the same game with better graphics. The controls suck, yes, but that's not the game's fault imo. It's bc of the hardware the game released on. So just content wise it's better imo bc it's basically Mario 64 but with some extra stuff. But I can understand that people don't have that much fun with the game bc of the controls. On antoher note, I was expecting that people would question my Galaxy 2 or Sunshine ranking first but I didn't expect the 64 and 64 DS thing to be the first thing that made someone ask me if I'm out of my mind 😂
The mini games in Mario 64 DS are also in New Super Mario Bros. DS. No unlock necessary. I never unlocked any mini games on 64 DS cause I could never get past the first boss. But I remember beating each minigame in the other game.
Just subscribed because of that video. I absolutely love the passion with which talk about each game. Mario has been part of my life since my childhood and now I'm sharing this passion with my nephews. Thank you for this video, I loved it and it's beautifully made 👏🙏
1:13:34 Yeah dynamic Music is such a underated feature. Jak II and Jak 3 are perfect to see how different it feels. Jak II has dynamic music, that changes based on if you are on foot, the Jetboard, have a gun out, enemys attacking. Because of this every enemy encounter feels action packed and important. Play Jak 3 after it, where the dynamic music is missing and any enemy encounter feels boring, lacks of impact. Because nothing changes about the atmosphear.
A cool secret in 3d land is in the pixel art stages, you can walk into the castle and get one ups and even go to new parts of the stage sometimes. I always thougt that was so cool.
I played this so much when I was younger… seeing the gameplay, stages, loading screens, intro screen. Hit me hard. I miss being a kid, at least I have an N64 and the original now
Super Mario sunshine will always have a special place in my heart. I used to have a game cube at my grandma’s house and while she would play cards in the kitchen I’d play this game in the den and she would always ask me about the game. Such a good time man and such a good game. I miss those times
i had a dream while i fell asleep to this, it was a game for some reason it opened to a sunset then to a facility of some sorts the player was just a square and you have to chase a bigger square but if you touched a door on the left [a door = a line of dark grey pixels] you would turn blue, get sun-glasses then split into a lot of tiny squares with no face that are red and chase after the bigger square which stopped to look then you easily catch him then the game resets [also there were triggers i think?]
Super Mario 64 ds is like 50% a remake 50% a new game and more like it’s own thing In fact I would consider it more of a remix of the original Mario 64 rather than a remake It’s also probably where all the Mario 64 DD concepts went like playable Luigi for example
"Miyamoto, the director of almost every mainline Mario and Zelda game" Not quite. He directed the 8-bit Mario titles and returned to direct 64 and his only directing credit in the entire Zelda franchise is the first game. He didn't direct any of the Pikmin games either, despite people commonly believing otherwise. With the exception of Super Mario 64 and the first two Star Fox games (where he was lead game designer not director) Miyamoto has only worked as a producer since the end of the NES/Famicom era.
Thank you for the lengthy and thorough analysis of these games. I also want to commend you for not shitting on Super Mario Sunshine like so many people seem to do. I feel the game gets such a bad reputation just because it's not a direct sequel to Super Mario 64 like so many people wanted it to be back in the day. Despite its flaws if you take the game at face value, it's actually a pretty fun experience and very unique for a mainline Mario title. Quite underrated actually.
To be honest with you Super Mario Galaxy is irreplaceable to my heart. I think it one of the best 3D Mario game ever.. just look at it!!! Ahhhh... nostalgia ❤
2272, Tokyo. The last living gaming historian who keeps records of pre-internet electronic gaming consoles is killed in a botched medical procedure. The legacy of Super Mario 64, and all games made before mass pod-living acceptance, is dead.
You get that SM64 DS is the better version when you play it on Wii U with installing the app for the analog controls. There’s no better experience of the game.
This video is perfect. I wish it was 9 hours long because I love deep dives but you manage to say so much in 30ish minutes for each game that it has the content of a 9 hour vid. Kudos
Super mario 3 d world is one of my favorites. I got it when my daughter was pretty young and this got us into gaming together. We would mess around and dad would get through the harder stages. So many memories
37:34 I actually straight up enjoyed both of those segments. Thought they would make decent mini games in Mario party. The blooper riding was harder but once mastered was very enjoyable.
fell asleep to a random youtube video and woke up to you praising super mario 3d land so i know the videos good will watch the rest when i'm not unconscious
Pinna Park is my favourite level in sunshine, but it has a few safety hazards… 1. The boats do a full loop 2. You need to do a jump to get on the ferris wheel 3. The clams eat you 4. The Yoshi-Go-Round is broken 5. There are Electro-Koopas everywhere! 6. The roller coaster has a giant robot attacking it
I always loved how super mario 64 was made. It didn’t make you go one way and let you do almost anything. It was awesome. And I would ALWAYS play 64 DS on long car rides
Having never played them I disagree. I enjoy hearing how the game made someone feel and not just technical gameplay...there are heaps of those already.
Its so refreshing seeing someone give 3D land the respect it deserves. Maybe it’s because of nostalgia and the fact that I haven’t played 3D world yet but it’s my favorite mario game and I barely see anyone talk about it which kinda sucks since the levels are so fun
Peach's Castle Is so beautiful!!! Structurally talking!!! I'd love to see it in 1:1 scale, like a Museum to be visited, with the possibility to go and visit the Garden in the Front, The Backyard, the Basement and the Upstairs too, with every room and paintinga 🤩🤩😍😍
2:44 i'm gonna be honest here, i don't see the bad in Hotel Mario the voice acting might be weird but back then the voices wheren't standardised and i do like the looks of the cutscenes: there charming and entertaining
30:43 it's definitely a huge detriment. I don't play 3d Mario games for realism/immersion. I play them for fun and variety. The setting killed this game for me.
Considering Sunshine was made in only 18 months is astonishing and a testament to the ones working on the game. It may not be the best Mario game but its certainly nothing to scoff at.
You are incorrect about your floppy drive capacity and it having higher capacity than a N64 cartridge. The average capacity of a N64 cartridge was 64mb while the maximum amount of storage for a floppy was about 4MB if you were using special products and some serious compression for the files the average storage capacity was about 1.44 MB. How can 1.44 MB ever be greater than 64MB. If you were talking about CD and DVD then you could potentially have a higher capacity for the system but you wouldn't be able to save to the game itself. When I say could I'm talking about formatting and many other things but your average would be between 1 and 4 GB.
I think it's worth mentioning, about the whole "L is real 2401" thing. If you look closer it actually says "Eternal Star" which makes a lot more sense. Crazy coincidence though nonetheless.
Great video! But just a correction, Super Mario 64 was NOT the first mario game voiced by Charles Martinet. That game was actually Mario Teaches Typing. 😊
Mario 64 is still my favorite 3D Mario. There’s something so charming about the graphics, the soundtrack, the sometimes wacky controls and camera (Lakitu!). But I love it. While Mario Galaxy is IMO the overall best 3D Mario title, 64 remains my favorite. Love these kind of videos.
You are a Mario enthusiast and it shows. In a good way. There is so much negativity going on and being grumpy and hate things are so common nowadays it´s getting on my nervs. I don´t agree with you in some statements, but it´s really nice to see how much you like these games. Out of the 3D Mario games I played only 3D World, 3D Land and Odyssey and I think they are great. Played the game boy games more and to my shame I have to admit, I never completed Mario Land... The best thing about the Mario games for me is, how it binds generations together. Nearly everybode can pick up a Mario game and have fun. I have shown the games to my 7 year old nephew, while he does not like the old ones, he was blown away by 3D Land and completed it. What I really dislike about the Mariogames in general is this stupid lag when you collect a powerup. Especially in the multiplayer there is a big chance you mess up if someone gets hit or is getting bigger. That really needs to change. Really good and ambitious work. I had fun watching it.
3D land was the only game I ever finished 100%. After collecting all of the starcoins in all of the 16 worlds and finishing them with both mario and luigi with the golden flag you unlock a secret insanely hard lavel. That game was truly a good game.
Sunshine is still incredibly underrated, even to this day. Gets no respect for how unique it was relative to the other titles. Mario controls like a dream in that game.
I wanted to buy the all star pack for nintendo switch... but I was too young and didn't have a switch then. I always found sunshine more... "Unique" in a similar way to galaxy kinda...
Sunshine is completely goated. I don't care what anyone says
Controls like a dream??? Literally has the worst controls and physics in the series lmao
@@Mkdenn I disagree. If you only count when Fludd is locked away, then maybe so. But Fludd is an extension of Mario's full control. Everything is way more responsive than what we had at the time. Even jumping and sliding felt good.

Same I found he had Mariogasms left and right
As someone studying music theory and composition, the Mario games, especially the 3D ones have always amazed me and been a big inspiration. I can't begin to explain what these games have meant to me, growing up with Mario Galaxy one and two is probably the reason why I even love music so much or that I am who I am today.
Mario galaxy is my biggest inspiration for my music
I fell half asleep while watching the super Mario Odyssey part and what you were saying influenced my dream and I was dreaming of a game that would be the perfect sequel to Odyssey
Next time I go to sleep I'll loop the Odyssey retrospective video and try to remember the dream I have of it
Bro that happens to me every time I fall asleep to a gaming related vid it’s so dope
Wow bro, thats extremly impressive
10:33 "while mario says his iconic line, assuming the sexuality of bowser", hilarious.
The Super Mario Galaxy Part brought tears to my eyes 🥹
What a beautiful game it was….💙💜
This is an outstanding retrospective. I've watched it twice since yesterday! I'm looking forward to what else you come up with.

This is only a compilation of content he already uploaded months ago. No wonder it doesn't get as much traction, it's just a repost.

great vid man. 2:12:43 I love how that theme in Mario 3d world with the boxes is a remix of the character select theme from super Mario bros 2
Sunshine is undeniably so underrated, just compare the graphics and plot to other games, it was insane for a 2002 game
realllyyy good video, i respect you for making this long video
This entertained me so much! People like you should be at the top of the for you page for Mario fans because this is AMAZING

Actually, Charles Martine's first "game" debut was in "Mario Teaches Typing" from 1991 :) But Nintendo themselves seem to have forgotten that fact as we saw in the Charles Martinet retirement post/video :D
Also, you are able to get hints for the purple coins in Odyssey from the Bowser Odyssey Amiibo. I know, it's locked behind a gadget you have to buy, but the possibility is there. The next Mario game should just allow anyone to use those hints without paying for it.

3. Sunshine
4. Galaxy
5. 64 DS
6. 64
7. Bowser's Fury
8. 3D World

To be honest with you Super Mario Galaxy is irreplaceable to my heart. I think it one of the best 3D Mario game ever.. just look at it!!! Ahhhh... nostalgia ❤
HERE WE GOOOO
I love long videos talking about my favourite videogame franchises!
Thank you for making this three hour long video for people like me
2272, Tokyo. The last living gaming historian who keeps records of pre-internet electronic gaming consoles is killed in a botched medical procedure. The legacy of Super Mario 64, and all games made before mass pod-living acceptance, is dead.
You get that SM64 DS is the better version when you play it on Wii U with installing the app for the analog controls. There’s no better experience of the game.
1:51:28 my favorite game series is the legend of Zelda and I remember being so excited when I got to this part of the game.
This video is perfect. I wish it was 9 hours long because I love deep dives but you manage to say so much in 30ish minutes for each game that it has the content of a 9 hour vid. Kudos
Super mario 3 d world is one of my favorites. I got it when my daughter was pretty young and this got us into gaming together. We would mess around and dad would get through the harder stages. So many memories
37:34
I actually straight up enjoyed both of those segments. Thought they would make decent mini games in Mario party.
The blooper riding was harder but once mastered was very enjoyable.
Awesome work dude. You deserve way more subs.
fell asleep to a random youtube video and woke up to you praising super mario 3d land so i know the videos good
will watch the rest when i'm not unconscious
59:39 he isn't running for his life! He's running INTO battle, to save Peach!
Your commentary reminds me of Summoning Salt! Very nice to gently fall asleep along.
1:06:42 You were playing Mario Galaxy in a switch?? Wait but how did you control the spin and the cursor star
the switch has motion controls dude….
Pinna Park is my favourite level in sunshine, but it has a few safety hazards…
1. The boats do a full loop
2. You need to do a jump to get on the ferris wheel
3. The clams eat you
4. The Yoshi-Go-Round is broken
5. There are Electro-Koopas everywhere!
6. The roller coaster has a giant robot attacking it
I always loved how super mario 64 was made. It didn’t make you go one way and let you do almost anything. It was awesome. And I would ALWAYS play 64 DS on long car rides
I fell in love with games when I came across mario bros on nes back in late 2001, ive been playing games almost every day ever since.
Wish these videos didn't have so much forced emotion in the scripts, but I do love seeing these old games.
Yeah it’s too overly dramatic. Lol 😂
UA-cam video essays be like.
Having never played them I disagree. I enjoy hearing how the game made someone feel and not just technical gameplay...there are heaps of those already.
Wow Mario 64 came out 27 years ago today! (September 26th 2023)
Its so refreshing seeing someone give 3D land the respect it deserves. Maybe it’s because of nostalgia and the fact that I haven’t played 3D world yet but it’s my favorite mario game and I barely see anyone talk about it which kinda sucks since the levels are so fun
Aggreed
You're growing dude! I've been following you since some months ago. Congratulations!
Peach's Castle Is so beautiful!!! Structurally talking!!! I'd love to see it in 1:1 scale, like a Museum to be visited, with the possibility to go and visit the Garden in the Front, The Backyard, the Basement and the Upstairs too, with every room and paintinga 🤩🤩😍😍
Good luck. The closest thing is Nintendo world.
@@jaguar4120 I know that, I'm looking forward to visit Japan and Universal Studios Osaka and Super Nintendo World
i don't get the moon complaint, i like being able to go anywhere and find one, makes exploring feel worth it. it's also funt to complete, idk
In Asutralia we had at launch Mario64, wave race, poilet wings still got my original 64 that my nan bought me with mario 64 and wave race
2:44
i'm gonna be honest here, i don't see the bad in Hotel Mario
the voice acting might be weird but back then the voices wheren't standardised
and i do like the looks of the cutscenes: there charming and entertaining
“Assuming the sexuality of bowser” had me ROLLING
30:43 it's definitely a huge detriment. I don't play 3d Mario games for realism/immersion. I play them for fun and variety. The setting killed this game for me.
2:59:40 the safari outfit is from mario's picross on snes
Considering Sunshine was made in only 18 months is astonishing and a testament to the ones working on the game. It may not be the best Mario game but its certainly nothing to scoff at.
Dude, I'm not gonna lie, the controls of SM64 DS is why I never completed that game as a kid, barely touched it because of that reason.
That was the first game I beat as a Kid
This was incredibly enjoyable!
You are incorrect about your floppy drive capacity and it having higher capacity than a N64 cartridge. The average capacity of a N64 cartridge was 64mb while the maximum amount of storage for a floppy was about 4MB if you were using special products and some serious compression for the files the average storage capacity was about 1.44 MB. How can 1.44 MB ever be greater than 64MB. If you were talking about CD and DVD then you could potentially have a higher capacity for the system but you wouldn't be able to save to the game itself.
When I say could I'm talking about formatting and many other things but your average would be between 1 and 4 GB.
Fun fact: The slot room's blocks are synced to the tempo of the song. So you can win big prize if you time your jump correctly.
Thank for actually giving us high quality Mario content to quench my thirst.
I think it's worth mentioning, about the whole "L is real 2401" thing. If you look closer it actually says "Eternal Star" which makes a lot more sense. Crazy coincidence though nonetheless.
Oh my god I fell asleep with this playing and I heard every second in my dream. Mental
SAME WTF
Great video! But just a correction, Super Mario 64 was NOT the first mario game voiced by Charles Martinet. That game was actually Mario Teaches Typing. 😊
Mario 64 is still my favorite 3D Mario. There’s something so charming about the graphics, the soundtrack, the sometimes wacky controls and camera (Lakitu!). But I love it. While Mario Galaxy is IMO the overall best 3D Mario title, 64 remains my favorite.
Love these kind of videos.
You are a Mario enthusiast and it shows. In a good way.
There is so much negativity going on and being grumpy and hate things are so common nowadays it´s getting on my nervs.
I don´t agree with you in some statements, but it´s really nice to see how much you like these games.
Out of the 3D Mario games I played only 3D World, 3D Land and Odyssey and I think they are great.
Played the game boy games more and to my shame I have to admit, I never completed Mario Land...
The best thing about the Mario games for me is, how it binds generations together. Nearly everybode can pick up a Mario game and have fun.
I have shown the games to my 7 year old nephew, while he does not like the old ones, he was blown away by 3D Land and completed it.
What I really dislike about the Mariogames in general is this stupid lag when you collect a powerup.
Especially in the multiplayer there is a big chance you mess up if someone gets hit or is getting bigger. That really needs to change.
Really good and ambitious work. I had fun watching it.
Great retrospective!
3D land was the only game I ever finished 100%. After collecting all of the starcoins in all of the 16 worlds and finishing them with both mario and luigi with the golden flag you unlock a secret insanely hard lavel. That game was truly a good game.
That Yoshi 3D game that got denied end up becoming Croc for PS1, one of my favorite platformers.
Thank you for making me realize I was dumb to ever get rid of Mario 3D World for Switch! Got a used copy at Gamestop today! Great video! :)
I was watching SML while going to sleep, and this was on after i woke up
i watched so many mario ice berg videos this summer... time to watch some more mario!
Holy frijoles I thought this was a 30 minute video and i looked at the time and its been *3 hours*
This vid is great 👍
