Exactly. Sunshine is fucking brilliant. Haters just want something to bitch at. I feel sorry for you if you can't see the greatness that is Mario Sunshine.

Mario Sunshine a gimmick game? Sir you don't even deserve to play platformers. With all the bullcrap and free-roaming adventure elements that developers put into 3D platformers, Mario Sunshine had some of the purest, tightest platforming gameplay ever to grace the third dimension. OOOHHHH BUT MARIO HAD A SQUIRT GUN... GIMMICK! Shut up.
The Super Mario Sunshine hate is unfounded. Calling the FLUDD a gimmick is rather weak. The platforming was solid, and the FLUDD-less stages are some of the best platforming this gen.
There are probably a 100 different usable characters in the Mario universe. You've got all the charcters from every Mario game, plus every DK game, every Wario game, every Yoshi... Then you've got the generic characters that can be cloned a million times if need be, Koopas, Toads, Piantes, Kremlings, Shy Guys...
I don't know how many teams there are going to be, but they should be able to fill enough.
Eh. SMS was a good Mario game... not anywhere as good as Super Mario Bros. 3, though. I still think the forced progression/linearity was the main problem.
