This is a sub-page of Super Mario Sunshine.

Eely-Mouth

Belly

The giant eel boss in Noki City has its esophagus and stomach modeled with a significant amount of polygons. Even though one of its attacks involves swallowing Mario, the camera never follows him inside, so the insides are never seen.

Extra Teeth

This boss battle requires you to clean eight teeth, with each tooth being a separate model controlled by bones labelled "ha1" through "ha8" in Eely-Mouth's body model. However, two additional bones named "ha9" and "ha10" exist near the corners of the mouth. With how they are partially hidden by the corner of the mouth, they would have been even more difficult to clean than the other teeth, which is likely why they were removed.

Gooper Blooper's Cork

The cork Gooper Blooper has in its mouth in the first part of the boss fight, bgeso_kolk and bgeso_kolk_break, says either "bsgeso kolk" or "bsgeso 2002" on the side. Since most of the cork is in Gooper Blooper's mouth and it breaks almost immediately upon being pulled out, this cannot be clearly seen at all.

Il Piantissimo's Real Face

While portions of Il Piantissimo's real face can be seen in-game, he never removes his mask. Through hacking or other methods, removing his mask reveals that he is really...

(gasp)

Interestingly, it seems Piantissimo is in fact the Running Man from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (or the Postman from Majora's Mask), though here he has an angrier expression, darker skin, and a goatee.

Mecha-Bowser's Control Panel

Super Mario Sunshine Mecha-Bowser Controls.png

During the Mecha-Bowser battle, it is possible to catch small glimpses of the cockpit. The bottom portion of the front can be seen when the head cover bobs up and down during the idle animation, and the back of the seat can be seen when the roller coaster moves behind the head. However, it is impossible to see the entire control panel due to how it is obscured by the seat and head cover. Even the pre-rendered cutscene after the boss does not show the face of the control panel itself.

By looking at the model directly, it is possible to see that the panel has a dozen gauges and two large levers. A 3D version of the red lever can be seen in the post-battle cutscene when the camera is behind Peach.
