Key Points:
- Nintendo is adding Super Mario Sunshine to the Nintendo Switch Online GameCube library next month, marking a long-awaited release for the summer-themed game.
- Originally announced as part of the GameCube Classics app before the Switch 2 launch, the 2002 title is finally becoming available after a significant delay.
- Super Mario Sunshine features Mario on Isle Delfino, using the FLUDD water cannon to clean up vandalism caused by a shadow version of himself while embarking on a princess rescue mission.
- The game is known for its unique mechanics but is also divisive due to its challenging difficulty, wonky physics, and early 2000s camera system.
- Its addition completes the lineup of home console 3D Mario games on Switch 2, though the 3DS-exclusive Super Mario 3D Land remains unavailable on the platform.
