Post GameTrailers compares Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Sunshine (Joystiq)

Filed under: , ,


Bad news, friends of the Lumas. After an extra week of reviews, Super Mario Galaxy has slipped to the number two spot on GameRankings, returning a certain ocarina-wielding Hylian to his long-held number one spot.

To commemorate the super-duper astroplumber's brief stint as king of all videogames, GameTrailers has whipped up a graphical comparison between Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Sunshine, the last of the home console Mario games. It's common knowledge that the Wii is just two Gamecubes duct taped together, does this mean Galaxy equals two Sunshines? You tell us.

Ocarina is still more deserving of #1

Nice comparison, I still love Mario Sunshine as well as Galaxy.

Interesting what a difference Galaxy's orchestral soundtrack makes, it makes Sunshine's (still excelent) soundtrack sound really dated.

No duh. Higher poly models, more fluid animations and higher res textures.

Edit: Not to mention better art design.

Apart from the obvious technical improvements I really do like the presentation and overall theme of Sunshine. For which one I think looks and sounds the nicest overall (despite the technical upgrade of Galaxy), I really don't know, maybe Sunshine.
