Back in my day the best I could do was 119. Always wanted to grab that last star, but the 120 challenge is a young man's game.

I did it as a child. The only hard ones are the 100 coins in the last two levels just because they're really long

In all honesty Tick Tock Clock would've worked much better in one of the Galaxy games or something, there's just too much repetition for seven bland stars imo

I forget how many shines you can get in Sunshine from blue coins but last year I did the 120 minus however many shines that is Shine challenge. It is the best way to play Sunshine.

Yeah. The blue coins are lame, especially since they a lot of them are mission specific, so if you miss some and want to finish it 100% you have no idea where they could be and essentially have to beat every level again just to be sure. I don't think j ever got the 120 in sunshine

Bummer. It seems like it would be so easy to just map spin to a button, since 2 barely ever even uses the star bits for anything iirc.

i think they arent going to "map" anything, just if the wii game happens to already have classic controller support, that should work on wii u controllers

Yeah the Metroid prime stuff was untouched, which is fine there because that control scheme is nearly perfect, but after playing through 3d world on a pro controller is hard to play mario any other way

That is six seventy star play throughs (fewest you can beat without castle movement glitches) and you're now contractually required to do and stream them.

Beleive in yourself gamer

It took me from getting it for Christmas in 1996 or whatever until 2012 to finally knuckle down and complete the game, same save and everything. But now I've wasted so much of my precious time playing this game over and over I can do it in under 3 hours.

I'm pretty sure I have a Gamecube memory card with a Mario Sunshine save at 119 shines, but I don't have the game any more. It's a dumb blue coin shine though so I don't really want to have to do it.
