I will definatly get Mario Sunshine, its just Starfox looks more promising and well.... better. I can positively say i enjoyed Rareware games on the N64 more than i have Nintendo games, and even Myamoto says rareware make games as good and even better than nintendo.

I don’t care what you say; I’m getting Mario Sunshine. Even though that may sound hasty, the video from the pre-E3 press conference makes this game look amazing.

You can ride dolphins, Yoshi, and loads of other cool stuff, the water backpack thing looks jokes and it opens up hundreds of new puzzle opportunities.

I. can’t. wait.

Well, if they are to be released at around the same time I will only get one of them then, and the other a while later.

It's probably be Mario first for me, as a Mario game is what you look for immediatly with a Nintendo console, and each one is also better than the last one - even if they are slightly shorter and easier.

Starfox still looks a great game, but Mario's always first for me.
Plus, Starfox Adaventures: Dinosaur Planet looks very RPG-orientated and i'll probably still be playing A Zelda game or maybe even another RPG when this one's released. So it can wait a little while, and I canm always go back to Lylat Wars, or even try and find a copy of Starwing on the SNES.

Fair enough on the age point but yes one came in feb and one in March. And it is incredibly sad that I know that. But for two major RARE platformers they were very close.

Eh? I thought they were released at the same time.

Oh and since when did age restrictions ever stop anyone? I bet you've got/played perfect dark and you're not 18.

Except for the small fact Conker's Bad Fur Day is aimed at adults and came out in February and Banjo Tooie is aimed at a younger age group and came out in March.

Just like what happened with CBFD and Banjo Tooie then.
