14 Video Game Bosses Who Will Defeat Players With Their Own Abilities

Shadow Mario – Super Mario Sunshine

While the game certainly has some structural problems, Super Mario Sunshine also did a lot right as it tried to iterate on the formula of Super Mario 64. 64 was groundbreaking for literally creating how a 3D platform game should work and how players would move within a 3D space, including the camera. Mario can certainly move, very deftly with the right hands as well, so with Super Mario Sunshine, having their shadowy doppleganger challenge Mario with knowing how to confidently move through the space by using his distinct moves made a lot of sense. If only the idea had more time to bake.
