I was just watching a YouTube clip on the best games of last year and in it, the subject of Super Mario Sunshine came up. That was my favourite Mario game ever, personally, even though I think most dislike it. In the video, the game reviewer said that Super Mario Sunshine was clearly the most difficult of all the Mario games ever made.
This surprised me since I think it's the only one I actually finished 100%. I remember finding it pretty tough but not overly so. My buddy Steve would come over just to watch me play, I didn't think it was a big deal, but yeah I kind of remember those 3D levels with the really cool music and the rotating wood blocks you had to navigate.
Did you guys find that Mario to be the toughest? I don't remember it being impossible at all. But it was definately my favourite.

It's the most difficult one, for sure. Just play-for-play and 100%, barring the grotesquely unfair SUPER MARIO BROS 2 (i.e., the real one, LOST LEVELS or whatever). The controls are sketchy compared to the GALAXY games, and the whole FLUDD unit thing is weird and not very "Mario," whose abilities are usually intrinsic (barring fireballs).Black Barney wrote: Hey FATties,

It's not the toughest. New Super Mario Bros. Wii U might be the toughest, especially with the Luigi expansion. Then again, does that count? What is the "core" Mario series at this point, the 3D ones starting with 64 or the 2D side scrollers? Is there a separation or not? If not, doesn't that make Mario Maker the hardest?
I know that when the subject of "most favorite video game series" comes up, I'm always ready to cite Castlevania, but I feel like that might be for aesthetic alone. When you really get down to it, how could Mario not be the greatest series in video games? Almost every game in the series consistently set new standards, and they are and will continue to be timelessly enjoyable. There really isn't anything else out there that can make that claim, not even the Zelda series. Sunshine doesn't seem to get as much love, but I think that's more the popularity of the Gamecube, not the game itself. Which GC game isn't underrated?

Mario Galaxy 2 isn't the hardest, but the green star challenge actually pushed that game toward some really fun and creative platforming.
The New Super Mario Bros. games get ridiculously difficult in the later stages. I actually am not really into NSMBU because it feels like work to play. That's a terrible thing to say about a Mario game.

I forget that was a GC exclusive initially. I've bought the game 4 times now (once on PS2, once on Wii, once on PC, and on Wii again after I traded it away and realized it really was the best version). Couldn't tell you how many times I've played it all the way through, it's definitely in my top 5.
Dunky is great. His Skyrim and Mario 64 videos absolutely kill me.
"Oh, shit, I forgot! HE'S GOT ME CAUGHT IN HIS ULTIMATE TORNADO SLAM!"
