Just because Super Mario Sunshine is the most underwhelming game in the main Mario series (fact, not opinion), doesn't mean we don't want a water-based jet pack for our own. In fact, we'd be happy with a something-based jet pack of any sort ... unless it's a murder-based jet pack, of course.
Jet Levitation is out there using good old American ingenuity (curious, for a Canadian company) to make our dreams come true with the JetLev, a pack limited by a 30-foot range and powered by a jet ski motor. If you'd like to see for yourself, we've got a video after the break.
if an old man arrives first to a remote wilderness armed only with a link tunic and a psp go with rock band unplugged and a banana cream pie shake from sonic - is he really first or old if no one is there to confirm the event?
I know that I will face the wrath of the joystiq community for saying this, but I thought that mario sunshine was MUCH more fun than Galaxy. I got way more playing time out of it. And im totally saving up for this jetpack BTW that thing is friggin sick
@brodo, actually my friend you are correct, galaxy is not as good as sunshine. people just jumped on the hate bandwagon because its "mario 64 with a water pack." however, i had much more fun playing sunshine than galaxy, and i know galaxy is in space but i still felt very confined in it, the planets a lot of time were too small, imo.
Ha ha, murder-based jet pack! That really made me laugh. Also that part about mario sunshine being underwhelming. anso that part about this being "NEW"s.
I think the little retro levels scattered throughout Sunshine were pretty cool. And were also very reminisent of some Galaxy levels now that I think about it...
not unless it's in an obviously tongue-in-cheek way, i would think not. That is, if you're referring to my rants about the best and second-best games of all time
I think underwhelming perfectly describes Super Mario Sunshine. It doesn't say it is a bad game, it certainly doesn't say it is the worst game... It simply says that it didn't quite live up to the expectations that everyone had for a follow up to Super Mario 64.
I love the game, but I wholeheartedly agree that Super Mario Sunshine is the most underwhelming main entry in the Mario series.
For some reason to me this just seems like something someone would buy to live our their super hero or villain fantasy, Having hydro rocket power and all.
No, they fully re-enacted what the japanese show did, and confirmed that it was very dangerous (to your neck) and only launched you a few feet (straight forward and down onto rocks)
