Looks like Nintendo Europe has released their Super Mario Sunshine visual style / icon suite.

They use WindowBlinds and IconPackager technology to do this.

Here's a screenshot:

You have to have a Gamecube to get these. I'm not sure if it's only applicable to Nintendo Europe or not. Will do more digging.

What do you mean, you have to have a Gamecube? Are they doing serial # verification?

Yeah, in my copy of Mario Sunshine (released today) there's a Nintendo VIP 24:7 card with a pin numnber on it, I've now got access to the theme, screensaver and players guide. I've also got 455 stars (200 for regging, 5 for the visit and 250 for Mario) :o ;) . Now, lets see if I can grab the gamecube theme...

I'm gonna install Windowblinds and this theme on Virtual PC on my Mac, that's a true test of Windowblinds performance skills ;)

Ok, Frogboy, I've downloaded the themes, they were in a zip with 3 files, "SuperMarioSunshine.sdtheme", "SuperMarioSunshine800.sdtheme" and "SuperMarioSunshine1280.sdtheme". What are these?

Heh. I also regestered my gamecube, I'm up to almost a thousand points now, they can be used to "buy" things from their site such as screensavers for PC and Mac, T-Shirt transfers, Wallpapers etc.

Aahhh, now come on.. That style is excellent. Exactly what I want to see from a professional skin. If I can get more like that tell me where, and what apps do I need??

As for Mario Sunshine VS, someone must have acidentally hosted that for a few hours inadvertantly allowing people to download it by mistake.

Hint, hint.

IM me at [email protected] if you have accidentally done this.

These are the wallpapers I have in my "treasure chest" from Nintendo as a gesture of goodwill:

I also have the Gamecube and Mario themes as well as something called "Nintendo Desktop Manager" so I guess that controls the themes.

Here's a list of the goodies I have by default:

    • Because of the EU (a good thing) newer android devices been getting 5 years worth of security patches. Except some Motorola which found the loop hole, and offer ZERO updates. In addition, Google for years have been making where it can patch some stuff by updating the core Google Play Store itself.  As echoed earlier,  you take the security risk in to your own hand beyond supported.

    • Yes for me, I installed 'old calculator' (Windows 7 calculator) in its place since it is more useful to me. I think paint is the only one I left installed
