Super Mario Sunshine was released for the Nintendo GameCube in 2002 and follows Mario on Isle Delfino, where he uses the water-powered F.L.U.D.D. device. Its bright setting and distinctive character audio remain recognizable to players who grew up with the console. Short excerpts from the game later became useful in gaming edits, reaction videos, and nostalgic memes. Creators often group this type of clip with other classic Mario voice clips because both provide an immediate reference to Nintendo’s long-running platform series.
