Mario 64 set the standard for 3D gaming right off at the beginning of N64's lifetime...
Sunshine was the first official Mario game since M64, it meandered about somewheres in the middle of the cube's lifetime looking like an upgraded N64 game, and I believe some people complained that it didn't bring anything new to the table outside of what some folks labeled a "gimmicky" water pack... thing (which probably wouldn't have been quite as big a deal at the time were it not for the fact that Nintendo hid it in previews like it was some big secret... Not featuring it in screenshots and the like)...
But a 92% rating on Gamerankings is hardly a "bad rap"... Personally I thought the game started off quite fun until I completely lost interest somewheres around the halfway point...
