Super Mario Sunshine/Unused or Unseen Map Geometry
| This article is a work in progress. ...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes. |
This is a sub-page of Super Mario Sunshine.
| To do: Images coming very soon. |
All levels in Sunshine have some sort of view of the other areas or islands, sometimes, they geometry that cannot be seen in normal play. Such as a completely modelled Corona Mountain or nearly the entire shape of the island being completely in tact.

Delfino Plaza
Bianco Hills
Bianco Hills' stage geometry shows off a lot of the other levels in the distance, however, this is one of the few times where a stage in the game is a partially complete model of the Dolphin-shaped island. There is also a creek that goes on for some way (which is boarded up
Ricco Harbor
Gelato Beach
Pinna Park
Sirena Beach
Pianta Village
Noki Bay
Depending on the perspective of where Mario is at in the level, you can see a lot of the hills in the distance to Corona Mountain, or just see a few big hills. However, Corona Mountain itself is fully modelled, including the top with a geyser modelled in. There are other levels that have very similar geometry regarding Corona Mountain, but most are either cut somewhere down the base of the model to possibly save resources and reduce load on the hardware (yeah, right). This is the only time in the game where the full model of Corona is actually used, although, it cannot be fully seen.
