While I did know about the physics system for Mario 64, I never actually payed enough attention to Mario Sunshine to notice all that. However, looking at it now, you are totally right. They really did go into a lot of detail in the physics, and he does react differently in ALL ways depending on surface and not just reduced running speed. I think I have grown too complacent in trying to figure out the physics of games to get an idea of how the programmers went about making the game.
Thanks for pointing all that out to me!

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
