Nintendo Producer Expresses Interest In Super Mario Sunshine Sequel

Nintendo’s Takashi Tezuka has expressed interest in a sequel to Super Mario Sunshine. Tezuka, who serves as the producer of a multitude of Wii U and Nintendo 3DS games, would also like to revisit The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask. He is currently working on two upcoming Wii U titles, Mario Maker and Yoshi’s Woolly World. Mario voice actor Charles Martinet previously demonstrated his yearning for a sequel to the Nintendo GameCube classic.

Is there any hope for a Mario Sunshine sequel or a 3DS remake of Majora’s Mask?

Tezuka: [laughs] This is my personal opinion, let’s start with that. I mean, of course I wish we could. I personally would like to enjoy those again but I don’t have any information.

  1. That would be neat, would love to see F.L.U.D.D. again. If they don’t do that, hope we at least get an HD rerelease of Sunshine.

    1. They should make a 3 pack HD collection with sunshine and both galaxy 🌌 games (maybe Mario 64) and then come out with one big sequel that combines all 4 games….epic!!!

        Instead of an island resort, we’d get to use FLUDD on multiple beach planets. xD I like this idea!

    1. I’d be down! But we already have 2 Galaxy’s. I’d say a Sunshine sequel or a brand new one player Mario game.

                1. Mhm, yet you come onto here and bash people, I believe you are the lowest form of human. I don’t even think you’ve got a functioning brain XD

                  Go home dork, you’re dumb

  2. I would love to see both games on Wii U and 3DS it would amazing with the first game foray per Mario sunshine and 2 game with it.

  3. Oh please not on the 3DS… Majora’s Mask Remake would be perfection on the Wii U. BUT a sequel to that TLoZ game and /or Mario Sunshine (obviously on the Wii U) would be even better, if that is even possible.

  4. Nintendo Commander's Conscience

    Super Mario Sunshine blow harder than Richard Simmons on this knees “playing” his 19 year old Latino house keeper that teases him by wearing guess jeans cut off Apple bottom shorts.

    1. You put a new sunshine on the Wii U, I will flip my shit. Literally, okay maybe not literally but you get the point.

      One of my favorite Mario games, such found memories.

      1. For me it was Galaxy>Sunshine>3D World>SM64=Galaxy 2
        Just my opinion. But keep in mind, all these games are masterpieces

        1. Tallon Ridley XIII: Kalas

          Since we’re fighting over opinions, you are both wrong. It’s Super Mario World>Every Mario game in existence. >.<

      2. 3D world was an amazing and beautiful game that combined all the elements from past 3D mario games. PLUS the added bonus of four player multiplayer, you can play 3D mario with your friends and family, making it either co-op or competitive using that point count-up at the end. Furthermore, the cat power up has been the most inventive new power-up i’ve ever seen and each stage has its own unique personality with a gimmick that makes you come back to it just to relive an unforgettable experience. The game also has amazing graphics and music that’ll get stuck in your head just like that mario 64 theme. Not saying the other games sucked, but 3D World is much better than dogshit, and maybe even mario 64…

  5. I’ve never played Super Mario Sunshine, but I would appreciate another game like it. I really enjoyed Galaxy. I’d prefer an HD remake of the games on Wii U rather than a 3rd one. I really don’t want to go in space again, I’d prefer something newer. Mario’s been milking it a lot recently and I think it would be a better idea to just chill out for a second as Nintendo works on a bigger and more expansive Mario game while possibly giving an HD remake to hold people over.

            1. Ouch, horrible mistake is right lol thankfully i still own a 1st generation wii console and still works perfectly! :) I had to it send it to nintendo once cause the graphics card started showing pixels on the screen haha that was due to the WiiConnect24 service and it was a problem for other people too! I still use my Wii :)

  6. More Cheese Than Oprah

    Super Mario Galaxy 3 pliz!
    Super Mario Sunshine 2 pliz!
    Super Metroid FPS pliz!

    Anyways, to some important business, what qualifications would an individual have to duplicate if he were attempting to steal the attention of that Treehouse Host girl? That girl looked hella humble, really interested in the gig, and just all around cute! Not your generic, annoying Jessica Chobot(speaking before the marriage) or Naomi whatever, and there are some others.

    Gotta be something Nintendo does to people, ya know!

  7. The anonimity of the anatomy of a sea anemone

    This company isn’t about that life! We at Xbox really bring the noise, we the real McCoys, this were the girls be at, where the ammo be at, where explosions be the loudest, nintendrones don’t want none of this work, we’re really about that. Go Team Xbox, 4 Da win!!!! Playstation, you aiight!

        1. Tallon Ridley XIII: Kalas

          Oh well. Just have to be happy with the new IPs they do have coming. What? Not the IP you wanted? Well you people only said you want new IPs. Not Nintendo’s fault you people didn’t specify the genre. >.<

      1. I swear by the gods Sasori… One day your stupidity will be the end of you, until that day I await your judgement patiently. Nothing but a parasite in a much larger disease.

        1. Who the hell is that? Wow, you dorks really don’t have any brain cells XD

          I’m surprised you were even born.

          1. What not many think is that console are PCs, they are specialized for gaming only while PC may cream the consoles, they can do just as much…otherwise we wouldn’t get hulu, amazon, Netflix of any other apps…hell even VC so all of your arguments are invalid fuckers and snowman takes the cake.

        2. If Nintendo makes and publishes a game, it’s not coming out in PC, it’s coming out on Nintendo consoles.

    1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

      And yet you kneel before our sacred games…

      Exposed for being a slave like I said…

        1. Tallon Ridley XIII: Kalas

          Coming from the guy that wants Nintendo franchises for his PC so badly. Sorry but the only way you’re playing Nintendo’s games on PC is through emulation like a loser. (This is not an insult to those that only use PC emulators for games they can’t get from Nintendo, anymore.)

  8. Tallon Ridley XIII: Kalas

    Super Mario Sunshine 2? Fuck yes, please! Super Mario Galaxy was good, not great, and I wasn’t too interested in Super Mario Galaxy 2, so Super Mario Galaxy 3 would not be a purchase for me not unless they did something big with it like say 2 player co-op: one person plays using the Gamepad & it’s screen while the 2nd player plays with a Wii U Pro Controller & uses the TV, or vice versa if player 1 wants to use the pro controller & TV while the 2nd player uses the Gamepad.

      1. Tallon Ridley XIII: Kalas

        Yeah. I want to see Super Mario Bros in full 3D to continue the 3D Mario games. Maybe they can call it Super Mario Bros ReUnited.

  9. Revisiting Sunshine would be so awesome. I don’t care what system or whether it’s a remake or sequel or whatever. Just to play that style again would be so awesome.

      1. Wow, take a chill pill dude. And let the guy fend for himself, I’m sure he is perfectly capable of doing so. :)

      1. Real PC Master Race

        Calling Console gamer’s peasants yet they have more money than you to spend of games, consoles and such, whilst you try to penny pinch on games… Irony

  10. I love Sunshine. I replay it every couple years or so, but I don’t think the game really needs a sequel. I think I speak for a lot of people when I say that Nintendo needs to put out another Mario game where your movements and exploration aren’t limited to what a gadget will allow Mario to do in the game or timer for that matter. Mario 64 needs a true sequel. There doesn’t need to be a theme to the game. Give us the archetypal Mario worlds but expanded upon and let us parkour our way though them, so to speak.

  11. Why does everyone hate on 3D World? I never understood that. Nintendo never intended for it to be a full blown 3D adventure like Galaxy or 64. It’s still the best Mario I’ve ever played so I will heavily defend it for what it is. >:(

    1. Thank you, I loved SM3DW so much best levels and you could play as rosalina, super Mario sunshine such an overrated piece of shit, clunky mechanics, forgettable levels and the voice acting God was it a slap in the Mario franchise, anyone that puts it at number one in front of SMG are nostalgic turds

      1. Tallon Ridley XIII: Kalas

        #1: Super Mario World
        #2: Super Mario 64
        #3: Super Mario Sunshine
        #4: Super Mario 3D World
        #5: Super Mario Galaxy

        Nothing wrong with letting nostalgia effect your decisions. It just means that game had a huge impact on you. So call me a whatever insult word you can think of to accompany the term nostalgic. It won’t change MY opinion.

  12. This is the kind of stuff that baffles me from nintendo. You have very legacy driven games and franchises and they let them sit dormant and do nothing with them. Take Mario Galaxy series, been over 4 years now since Galaxy 2 and no word on a follow up sequel. Same thing with Metroid Prime series. Been 7 years on that and these games above I just mentioned sold extremely well and have some of the highest rated titles in the history of video games. Games that get 97, 98 scores on MetaCritic. Nintendo HAS to capitalize on that kind of success.

    1. Mario Galaxy sold 12 million
      The sequel sold half that

      Don’t remember a single Metroid game that sold well so…

    2. Well, everyone’s been saying they want a new franchise. We got that and now everyone complains saying they only wanted sequels and HD remakes.

  13. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis is jealous of the United States and American citizens in general. Your pathetic with your sasori church trolling, get outta here with that shit! This is a site we all come to enjoy Nintendo news and interact with individuals who actually have a passion for Nintendo. Sigh…

    1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

      Jealous of your extremely high crime rates, your obesity, warmongering, creationists, global warming, racism, homophobia, economic state, IQ 85, The Microsoft Realm and Xbots…

      Yes, I’m extremeley jealous said no one ever…

      1. Tallon Ridley XIII: Kalas

        Don’t forget our own version of religious extremists like the Westboro Baptist Church. I’m not a fan of war but picketing the funerals of dead soldiers & picketing the funerals of gay people is despicable. Filthy, disgusting, lowlife, scumbag, lower than insects, lower than dirt, religious cultists!

        1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

          To be honest, insects are way higher life forms than humans…

          So I would say lower than apes…

  14. Well, it has been pretty long since Sunshine. And Mario is in great need of another sun-soaked vacation. I’m glad that people are showing interest. Super Mario Sunshine was a special game. I myself felt like I was on a tropical vacation during that summer when I first played it. Sweet memories. I even liked that cheesy commercial.

  15. Real PC Master Race

    I’d love a new Sunshine :D
    But I would love it if they didn’t used the voice actors from the first game and fixed some of the gameplay.

    1. Tallon Ridley XIII: Kalas

      didn’t use Bowser’s voice actor* Fixed. >.<

      If I hear a voice like that for Bowser EVER again, I will break something. The other voice actors were fine… except maybe Bowser Jr. I hope Japan got the better voice actor because Nintendo of America apparently thought a deeper, scarier voice would be too traumatic for the kids.

      1. Real PC Master Race

        It wouldn’t make much sense if Bowser never talked.
        I think they should just scrap the voice acting and stick to the speech bubbles.

        1. Tallon Ridley XIII: Kalas

          I’d prefer Bowser just talk with growls & roars like he did in Super Mario Galaxy. Off-topic: this is how I want Ridley to talk, too, with subtitles to let us know what he’s saying, if he ever talks in any future Metroid games.

  16. Why do Nintendo haters constantly barrage this place with hateful comments, I don’t get it, don’t they have something better to do, like get a girlfriend, hang out with friends… have a life(if there is one outside their pc)

    1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

      Obviously their so called “superior machines” are so boring that they have to come here…

  17. I think the FLUDD was better than anything in Galaxy games. Nintendo should make Super Mario Sunshine HD and a sequel.

  18. I’d be down for a sequel. This is my list of most wanted Mario sequels:
    1. Super Mario Galaxy 3
    2. Super Mario Bros. 4
    3. Super Mario Sunshine 2
    4. Super Mario RPG 2

    1. You do know that Super Mario World is essentially Super Mario Bros. 4 right? Actually, I believe it was even called that in Japan.

      1. Tallon Ridley XIII: Kalas

        According to wiki, it was subtitled Super Mario Bros 4. Like how Super Metroid & Metroid Fusion were subtitled Metroid 3 & Metroid 4 respectively.

    1. You hit the nail right on the head. Sunshine made my childhood.

      (<<< is part of a Gamecube generation no one seems to care about or even notice to exist)

  20. oh my gosh, Mario sunshine into opinion was the best Mario game. that game was the first game that I bought for the GameCube and is now one of few games I would actually hook up my GameCube to go back and screw around in. if they put Mario sunshine on the wii u I would pre order it the day pre orders go on sale. is prefer sunshine on wii u but to be honest I’m also okay with it on 3ds just because I want to visit that land again with a new story.

  21. YYYYEEEEESSSS!!!!! Best Mario game in the world! I could die in happiness if I got to play Super Mario Sunshine 2. During E3 I actually thought Splatoon’s intro was for Super Mario Sunshine 2.XP

  22. I know it may seem redundant now, but i think if they were to release at least Sunshine in the same vein as Windwaker HD, I think it would really benefit from having that hand-drawn, cel-shaded look that was seen in Windwaker HD. Maybe they can mix the 2, marrying them both to find Sunshine’s own style, but i just always thought Mario Sunshine and its tropical-like world would be amazing in that art style.

    If it’s not broken, don’t fix it

    1. Tallon Ridley XIII: Kalas

      Super Mario Sunshine 2 in an artstyle similar to Wind Waker? I’d buy that on day 1.

  23. ray_besser@yahoo.com

    I bought and played this game recently…
    I still hate the game. The game leaves me feeling like I took a 10 hour swim in chlorine water, my eyes felt burnt and I generally felt like crap.
    The game is a fucking chore to play. The Pinata people are the most annoying characters. They’re like tropical Jews.

    So no Mario Sunshine thanks, a new Mario game with a different concept would be the way to go.

    If they’re gonna do Galaxy, NO FUCKING BOWSER PLEASE!
    Bring back Tatanga, why?
    Because he’s a friggin’ Alien from outer space.

  24. Honestly, they should start with an HD remake for sunshine. Then, once they get a new console, if the HD remake did well, make the sequel. Because if they don’t have the remake the newer people might not know what sunshine is or have heard of it but never played it. And in the future, if they do make it I hope it isn’t on the hand held. It bugs me how they put luigi’s mansion dark moon on the 3ds, so I would like it if sunshine was on the console.
    And for the love of god, no galaxy 3. As good as those games were, we don’t need a third.
