Welcome to the cheats for Super Mario Sunshine for the GameCube. Below are the cheats.
Ending bonus
Successfully complete and save the game. You can pay 10 coins to use a boat near the clock tower where Yoshi is found to return to the Airport level at the start of the game.

Alternate ending screen
Successfully complete the game with all 120 Shine Sprites and the ending screen will show all the characters in the game. There are 240 Blue Coins and 120 Shine Sprites. You need 50 Shine Sprites and have level 7 completed on all seven stages to get to level 8. You only need 117 Shine Sprites to complete the game to get one ending. Get the last three Shine Sprites to see a different ending. Get the shirt and glasses for a different appearing ending.
Sunglasses
To get the sunglasses, talk to the man wearing glasses on the beach in Dolphic Plaza. The sunglasses tint your screen as if you were actually wearing them. He is also found in many other levels. He will not give them to you if you have less that 30 Shine Sprites. -From: kjb@rochester.rr.com
Get Yoshi
Progress though the game till you get 25 Shine Sprites. Go to Pinnal Park and complete Story #4 . You will now be back in town. The Fake Mario will appear with an egg. Chase him down to get Yoshi.
Yoshi juice
After eating a fruit, Yoshi can then spit out juice to defeat enemies.
Higher jumps with Yoshi
Do Mario's spinning technique when on Yoshi to jump higher. He can also spit juice in this form.
Yoshi's Spritzer Squirt
Press R, then press A.
Avoid dying
Pause the game when you are about to die and select "Exit Area". You will be teleported in front of the level you were at and not lose a life. Note: This does not work if you are falling.
Avoid losing health when falling
When falling from high places, press L to do a Ground Pound. This will make you fall very fast and not lose health.
Easy cleaning
Instead of taking a bath each time Mario gets dirty, do one or two spin jumps.
Jump onto buildings
Use a Ground Pound on a manhole cover then immediately jump up. This will send you high into the air. Use a Hover Nozzle to get on the building. Note: Some items, such as Shine Sprites and Blue Coins, can be found on roofs.
Spinning jump
After jumping, you can do a spin by rotating the Analog-stick once in a circle.
Sprinkler Water Spray
To execute the Sprinkler Water Spray easily, do a Spin Jump and hold R.
Faster transportation
To make Mario get around a little faster, use the single spray nozzle and shoot a small amount of water in front of him. Run and press B to do a belly slide. He will slide through the water and keep going at a high speed. This will continue as long as you do not hit anything.
Swim faster
When swimming, switch to your hover and press R. It will give you a little boost while swimming. Not only can you hold R with the Hover Nozzle while pressing A to swim fast; if you hold C-stick Up as well, you can swim very fast. The C-stick trick also works when Mario is wearing his "scuba gear", which is great for the Red Coin fish stage.
Select files with moves
When you are selecting a file you can do a Spin Move and the Side Jump to get onto the blocks.
Sunglasses and shirt Pianta location
The following is where the Pianta man that gives you the sunglasses is located in each level:
Easy lives
Whenever you complete a level, go to the water directly next to where the boats go in and out. Dive all the way to the bottom and you will see a 1-Up Mushroom. Whenever you return from a level or start from the beginning, it will be there.
Finding coins
Find a patch of flowers and spray them all quickly. Four or five Coins will appear from the middle of the patch.
