Super Mario Sunshine on Switch – What it Offers

Super Mario Sunshine will be released to the public on the Nintendo Switch as part of a limited-time offering alongside the Super Mario 64 and the Super Mario Galaxy games in the 3D All-Stars package. It will be launched on Friday and will only available until March 2021.

What starts as a holiday for Mario, Peach, and the toads on the sunny tropical paradise quickly turns into a nightmare as Mario is captured for a crime he isn’t responsible for. Take part in clearing his name by going through a series of challenges, collecting Shine Sprites, and more.

Game Highlights Exclusively Available on the Nintendo Switch

Eighteen years after the game was released on the GameCube in 2002, the star of the show is still the Flash Liquidizing Ultra Dousing Device, otherwise known as FLUDD. And for a good reason. After all, this rugged device helps you douse water all over the island, making clean-up a breeze.

For the Switch edition, however, players can enjoy better experiences thanks to a variety of nozzle upgrades using the FLUDD. FLUDD is now more powerful than ever, thanks to these new features and additions. Among the different nozzles available for use are the squirt nozzle for cleaning the town and blasting enemies and the hover nozzle for flying.

Other Upgrades

The graphics and visuals of the game have also been improved and optimized to provide players with a smoother and more seamless gameplay.
