I've had it since it was released, and I have 95 shines. I still play at least a couple hours every week, but I don't even remember the last time I got a shine (usually I just mess around accomplishing nothing in the hub world).

I have 80 or 90 something last I remember before I stopped. I beat the game, and just felt the task of finding every blue coin was just too daunting.

I'm at 119 with about 6 blue coins left to find, but I put the game on hold a couple months ago. It was taking far too long to track down the last blue coins.
I don't use faqs or guides, since that defeats the purpose of playing... so, finding the last blue coins gets a little tough.
But, I'll go back at some point and finish it up. It was getting tedious to go through each episode again after I'd just played through the game. If I go back in a couple months it'll be fun to re-visit the levels.

80.
I'll never get them all, the blue coins are stupid and the timed red coin challenges in the platform stages are too frustrating. It's just not worth bothering with, given the limited amount of gaming time I have. I'd rather play something else that's fun, rather than messing with those tedious tasks.

Only have like 30 on my current game, and I probably won't get them all. I consider it retarded that they are wondering where all the shines are, then they turn around and sell them to you for coins....:roll:

117 for me. A lot of those blue coins are too hard to find. I don't mind "collecting" things when they're out in the open, but when you have to try spraying every little spot in every episode of every level, that's too much for me.

I ended up around 100 I think. I only got the blue coins that I happened to spot. I hated those ones where you have to spray a spot and then run halfway across the level before the blue coin disappears.
I still have a couple of regular episodes to finish.
I think I'm the only one that actually liked the timed red coin secret levels. That is old school gaming right there baby!

73 now. But Im at an annoying part on all the remaining episodes. 
Those freaking chuckers will nudge you and toss you off into space. Im lined up and I swear the guy will nudge me off a bit before he chucks me. I hate those bastards.
