Actually with the sunglasses and t-shirt you can wear them in different levels you just have to find the guy around the map

[@DoctorFalchion]

Which also helps demonstrate the legitimate functionality of the sunglasses: the game gets brighter as you collect more shine sprites, and the sunglasses return the visuals to their starting brightness, which could even be very helpful for people whose eyes are hurt by the bright tropical colors. Just wish it was a toggle instead of needing to re-collect it each time you change areas X(

The underwater city in Noki Bay isn't abandoned and there's no dark backstory to it. It was only empty in that one mission because there's a giant eel in the way. The eighth mission has it fully populated with nokis and is super peaceful.

[@cannedhamburgers2682]

Ok I always like to think that the underwater city in noki bay is somehow connected to the city under rougeport in ttyd and I think it would make sense in a way because we do see piantas in both games and other similarities

I truly believe Sunshine takes place after Luigi's Mansion. This is because Luigi is never seen in Sunshine, implying he is staying at his new mansion still. Mario decided to go on a vacation after being saved by his brother. It doesn't make sense to me for luigis mansion to take place after sunshine, because if that was the case Luigi would be with Mario in sunshine

To add to the Unsettling Hotel Delfino point, it’s implied the occupants are somehow brainwashed to stay at Sirena Beach. You’ll notice throughout some of the levels that there’s some Piantas and Nokis on the beach. The singing sisters, some fans watching, a Noki running around, and a Pianta measuring the distance between two steps. However, as the missions go on, you’ll notice their dialogue changes as they keep doing the same things over and over. For example: the lady measuring her steps starts by saying “I think it’s about 80 paces from here to there.” and then “I’m pretty sure it’s 80 paces to there.” and on the final mission, she says “I think I’ve lost weight...” Rather it’s brainwashing or a time loop or some other explanation, it’s pretty weird stuff and I’m surprised I’ve never seen anyone talk about it.

[@runningoncylinders3829]

Maybe it could be a reference to Hotel California and the whole stage has a pocket purgatory-esque dimension, at least while it was haunted. Great observation Luminary of the Stars.

[@Sunflower41XD]

YOOOO awesome video!! What a blast to watch, and thanks again for having me in the video :D

[@ShyGuyXXL]

I have several theories for why Bowser Jr. ended up with the magic brush that don't include E. Gadd secretly being evil. 1. Bowser Jr. is "stretching the truth" when he says E. Gadd "gave" him the brush. He wouldn't admit that he's a thief when he's playing the good guy. Or he just straight-up doesn't see himself as a thief. In his eyes he was saving his dear mother and had to get rid of Mario at all cost, so there's no way it would be theft if it's for the greater good. Besides, he was raised by Bowser, who lies all the time. 2. Bowser Jr. already had his shapeshifting bandana at the time, so E. Gadd thought he was Mario. I don't think it's ever specifically stated where BJ got it from. Most people assume he created it WITH the brush, but it's possible he already had it. Maybe it was made with magikoopa magic. I mean Bowser Jr. came to the island to "outsmart" Mario, so it's possible he already had the plan to frame him, which would make sense if he could already pose as Mario. 3. E. Gadd didn't realize Bowser Jr. was Bowser's son. This was the first time BJ was seen in the Marioverse. Even Peach and Mario didn't know him yet. Maybe Gadd thought he was just some random Koopa person and didn't expect him to use the brush for evil. Maybe he just wanted someone to test the potential of his creation, but by the time he realized his mistake, it was already too late. Or he never realized it at all. 4. E. Gadd technically DID "give" the brush to BJ, but not to keep. I could see Gadd working on some machine, laser-focused on his work, when Bowser Jr. curiously walks up and spies over his shoulder like "Whatcha doin'?" Then E. Gadd is like "Hold this for a moment.", as he hands him the brush, without even looking up from his task. And before he knows it Bowser Jr. has run off with his invention. I could totally see Gadd be this absent-minded. ...or maybe he just lost his glasses and couldn't see who was in front of him. Who knows.

[@SomeGuyOnYT]

I thought maybe E Gadd might have a store? Where he sold the brush to like you said “some random koopa person”

[@Big_Marsh]

Awesome theories and honestly they all seem very possible

[@NightMourningDove]

SMG4 even kind of made a video on this lol

[@lingomaniac88]

I always thought of E. Gadd just being a tad eccentric that he doesn't always fully think about the repercussions of his inventions. The Luigi's Mansion series seems to portray him as such, at least.

[@strayorion2031]

I also think that he created FLUDD as a counter measure after he realized what happened

Edit: so i decided to play thru Noki bay and see exactly what the story is. Yeah its literally that they evacuated the city because of the mystery pollution (eel cavities poisoning the water) so once you finish the eel dentist shine they all move back in. You can see their houses floating at the surface as platforms to jump on, and in the last shine, all the noki have moved back to the underwater city and you get the 8 red coin fish they prepared for you. This is literally in game text information XD

I like to think Sunshine is directly after Luigi's Mansion, and is the reason mario is on vacation. Would also explain why Luigi isn't there, he's busy overseeing the creation of the A rank mansion.

I, for one, actually love the 100% ending screen in this game. I get that it might feel a little anticlimactic, but you just completed the game. What would be the point of giving you a cosmetic or whatever if you're already done playing. An alternate ending screen, however, gives you a sense of fulfillment like "hey gamer, you did it, nice job". Especially back in the day when the internet wasn't a big thing, so when you saw that screen you took a picture with your flipphone (if you even had one) to get epic bragging rights at school the next day. This has been my TED talk, thanks for listening.

Id like to think that the reason every level has a specific time frame is simply because Mario gets every shine from each area in one go. When he goes to Serena beach and fights the manta storm, he doesn’t just leave, He sticks around and continues through the rest of the episodes. After that he would likely just stay the night before returning to delphino plaza.

[@River_Betty]

Hotel Delphino is claustrophobic. And you’re right about the music being unsettling. It gets really weird too when you’re forced to navigate the hotel’s secret entrances like a maze. It’s also a little unsettling how you can invade people’s rooms, especially when you enter though seemingly impossible entrances (jumping through the ceiling of the bathroom and ending up in a bathtub on the second level). It’s like the hotel itself is something otherworldly and doesn’t belong on this plane of existence. There’s random fruit everywhere. It’s haunted by pink ghosts. There’s weird tunnels and stuff. It’s just a strange atmosphere for a Mario game.

[@Gordygoo12]

You can actually find a bunch of signs calling it that in Delfino Plaza, and I think also in the Z button map? With the fire cheep cheep, I don't know why, but I always assumed the "lava" in the volcano was just covered in lethal goop, probably because the outside of the volcano has water in it. I know that makes no sense considering they're on fire. With the hat being life support and Mario losing health in the sun, I just assumed it was supposed to be heatstroke.

About the Pikmin thing, it is canon that Mario takes place after Pikmin 3 or later, since there are Pikmin in Toadstool Tour. In other words, the Piantas are the fully-grown Pikmin, just like how the small insects and rodents increased in size after the dinosaur extinction.

They probably got rid of that darker goop because A. It looks a little too much like actual oil B. Part of the point of the goop is that it's colorful (a lot resembles melted ice cream) and tastes like sweets to foreshadow that the person behind this is childish, along with a lot of other mannerisms and creations even before the 10 shine mark. (tantrums, the giant sticking out of his tongue, graffiti use in general, tasting oddly sweet, enemy designs, etc) Bowser's Fury makes this a lot funnier in hindsight tho.

When I originally played through sunshine, I jokingly went through the feriss wheel cause I didnt wanna climb up and was shocked when I found out it worked

You can wear the glasses in other areas. Just talk to the same Pianta, he is in every area

Wait, I saw the original iceberg on reddit and said "I hope to see a video explaining this." and someone said "You want a video? Well, I guess I shall supply" I just realized you were that guy.

Sol coins probably became shines - sol means sun and with the train system it’d be a way to block progression to the next area until enough had been collected

31:07 my theory is that this resembles basicly the goop as a manyfestation like virus, when creatures like goombas, piranha plants and other creatures touch it, they get corrupted by it and overcome, like some virus, and maybe the wierd face is the goop, like hell the goop piranhas might be piranha plants corrupted. Kinda scary if you ask me Edit: i think they must be fully drenched, not just touch it, like mario does not fall under the influemce of it
