For those who?ve been asking ?Where?s Mario??, we finally have the beginning of an answer.
The GameCube has the dubious distinction of being one of Nintendo?s few console systems that launched without an accompanying Mario game. Super Mario Sunshine is the latest adventure to feature the big N?s mustachioed mascot, and?based on these screens?the play engine looks remarkably similar to that of Super Mario World for the Nintendo 64. In Sunshine, Mario has been framed as a graffiti artist, and in order to clear his name, he must erase random doodlings with the help of his trusty water-pumping backpack. Other details regarding the game are sketchy at this point, but we?ll shed more light on Sunshine in upcoming issues of GamePro.
