Super Mario Sunshine for Switch is not compatible with the GameCube controller

The game will be part of the Super Mario 3D All-Stars compilation, which will be released on September 18.

The 35th anniversary of the mustachioed man is being prolific when it comes to advertisements. Super Mario 3d All-Stars is the compilation with which the company wants to commemorate the plumber’s past, a past that this time focuses on several of his successes in three dimensions. Although the absence of Super Mario Galaxy 2 has been patent, Super Mario 64, Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Sunshine have managed to make the cut. Those who expected to enjoy this latest video game as they did with the original will discover that they will not be able to do so with the GameCube controller, since Nintendo has confirmed that it is not compatible.

Anyway, the Kyoto team have made a number of different options available to players. They can play with the two Joy-Con separated or connected to the grip, as well as with a single Joy-Con horizontally. The Nintendo Switch Pro Controller is compatible and can also be played in handheld mode.

The GameCube controller has been fully functional in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but Nintendo has not delved too deeply into the compatibility of this peripheral.

In Super Mario Sunshine, Mario, Peach and company visit paradisiacal islands, with the bad luck that Bowser returns to do his thing. Holidays in Isla Delfino are not as ideal as they expected, because as soon as he got off the plane, Mario will be accused of vandalism for dirtying the island. Confused with a look-alike suspiciously similar to yours, the authorities will provide you with a very particular talking tool, F.LU.D.D., who will become your companion throughout the adventure. Thanks to this device, he will be able to fly, propel himself and leave the ocean like jets of gold.

Super Mario 3D All-Stars will go on sale on September 18 in both physical and digital editions. Both will be limited, as Nintendo has announced that it will stop selling the product after March 2021.
