Shine Get 5 - Clean the other bell tower. Start sliding off the left-most green area and alternate using jumps, butt stomps and hovering slash rocket jumps to reach the Shine at the bottom. Use the U-turn jump and hover mode (or simply rocket jump) to the green pipe into a mini-stage.

Shine Get 4 - In the same area of the lighthouse, you should spot a series of green islands that you can hop. Note that some box set ups require you to use an existing stack of boxes to reach. This is an excellent opportunity for you to learn the height of Mario's jumps and to stop him in mid-air using butt-stomps. Do this twice (enter/exit) for two easy Shines. Head inside and challenge the owner to break all the boxes in the shop in 30 seconds or less. An Islander woman with a flipped on the side basket on the ground is nearby (and can be seen at the same time you see the door). Ford the river to the other side and find an open door (a black space) near an open air cafe (just the ones in Paris or Berkeley). Shine Get 2 and 3 - From the statue where Mario starts, head to the center of town where the river is. Shine Get 1 - At the base of the lighthouse that has the entrance to Mamma Beach, use the Spray on that end of the beach to find an area of sand that needs to be washed off. Since they are not listed in no particular order, you can get some Shine Sprites as soon as you begin the game, before you even enter the first world. Be sure to check out some of the Shine Sprite locations listed. The last thing - butt stomp all the manholes in Delfino Plaza and navigate the sewers for coins, 1-ups, and blue coins. You may be surprised at what several U-turn jumps and a brief spite of Hover will get you. You will have the opportunity to earn these Shine Sprites events eventually (at 10, 20, 30, etc.) so when in doubt, head to the area described and take a look. Unlike Mario 64, there is no minimum limit to the number of Shine Sprites needed to complete the game, merely the fact that Mario finds and defeats the Imposter Mario each time it is encountered.ĭelfino Plaza has many surprises in and unto itself, so it comes to no surprise that the town has some Shine Sprites. Mario Sunshine is a relatively large game, and so long as you focuse on completing Stories in order to free the next 'Episode', you will make progress. The whole town will experiences change slightly as Mario finishes 'Stories' in each stage. The town serves as a nexus (hub) to all the other stages in the game in addition to serving up some surprises of its own.
