Default Super Mario Sunshine Countdown



Only 5 days left until Super Mario Sunshine is released. And only 4 more days for some people whose software dealer is receiving the copies early.

Anyway, who has their copy reserved or who is going to get it?

I paid down the whole 54.11 (including NYC sales tax) about 3 weeks ago. I can't wait for the game, the store said they shall be receiving it on the 27th. I'm gonna see if I can use my sick hours from work on that day.

I'll get it eventually... but I have more money, and there are games I'd rather have than Mario... like NFL2K3 for PS2... But I have no money at all, so I don't even know when I'll be able to get that...

Only game I have pre-ordered is Zelda... (^__________^

I have reserved it

The thing is... I played the demo and I didn't like it at all. Mario Sunshine has seemed to lose it's older brother's Presentation greatness. When I played it, there was a general lack of excitement... especially if you want to compare how excited I was in comparision to Mario 64. (the Music didn't hypnotize me like M64 either)

It may be fun when I get it home, but from what I played it seems a little on the lame side.

Nothing IMO was more exciting than playing SM64. It was a giant leap so it's natural people aren't going to be as excited this time around.

I ordered it from Liksang.com

It will be in stock on the 28th, so by the 2nd/3rd of Sept I'll have it, with Eternal Darkness, and the utility disc!

Am I the only one who has never been phased by a game? I play games cause they are fun, but I don't have none of those "special" gaming moments. I guess I was generally on a later scale with it, I got SM 64 in like the summer of 99 so I had my hand full of 3-D games by then.
