Say something about Yoshi's Island.

Nintendo's take on Plok!

Yoshi a cute! CUTE!

The conclusion to 16 bit.
Masterpiece.

I don't get why they don't reissue them.

The MOTHER Original Soundtrack got reissued. It even got released on vinyl. But I don't think that had any involvement from Nintendo. Nintendo would rather you subscribe to NSO and download their stupid app than allow you to buy soundtracks and own them forever.

>>12750573
it's ok, i guess

Something about Yoshi's Island.

>>12750573
One of the worst games of all time
>>
>>12750573
To this day, I still have no clue what they were going for with this game's health system.
>>
>>12750593
those soundtracks are you 2 5 1 jazz turnarounds, you can literally just play those yourself with some basic music theory
>>
>>12750696
to make you work for hitless run, or to farm those casino minigames for infinite stars
>>
>>12750696
Lower skill floor but higher skill ceiling. Especially since Mario's stars will replenish up to 10 points.
All levels can be beaten pretty easily, but all levels are a challenge to beat with 100 score.
Items are provided however that let you cheese the 30 stars if you reach the end of the level with all 5 flowers and 20 red coins, so hitless runs are not required (but encouraged).
There's also the red egg trick if you need to farm stars from enemy kills, where viable.
>>
>>12750573
Fun game, great music, interesting levels, cool transformations. 100%ing the game is cancer though.
>>
>>12750573
Good game as long as you don't go for 100%.
>>

>that let you cheese the 30 stars
>the red egg trick
You didn't 100% the game.

never played it because it looked gay

He's literally being delivered by a stork at the start. And judging by the hat he was probably on the way to a gay couple.

>>12750573
Yoshi is cute and I would have sex with him

>>12751286
Having Artoon (now Arzest) develop the DS sequel (and 3DS sequel) made them total ass.

They make overly gimmicky decisions in all of their games that badly disrupt flow and lack forgiveness. Boss fights tend to be tedious and long drawn whilst denying the player the opportunity to perform quick-victories through skill expression.
>>
>>12751393
Japanese devs go full retard when they make minigame compilations or games targeted at very young children. They ruined Paper Mario by letting those people take charge of the series.

>gay
Holy projection
>>
>>12750573
i play the first 3 worlds, get bored of the game, shelve it for a year or two, am reminded that it's a "must play" then repeat the process.
that's what i have to say about yoshi's island.
>>
>>12751937
holy adhd
>>
>>12750573
i just started playing this and i'm a little shocked of how not easy it is. i think because it's a mario game i thought it'd be easy. it's not hard by any means but there's some levels that had me struggling a little.

also the game is fucking beautiful. you can tell it was made by devs that had complete unparalleled mastery of the system. the intro cutscene is insane.
>>
>>12752876
also: do lives reset or something between worlds? i had like 15 of them near the end of world 1 but then partway through world 2 i got a bonus stage and saw my lives were back down at 3.
>>
>>12752882
I believe they reset any time you shut the game off.
>>
It's not in any way shape or form Super Mario World 2, and I hate them for focusing only on Yoshi's island, and making it a gay little sunshine rainbow land, and ignoring the giant Dinosaur Land area (supposedly) behind it. Also causing all future games to focus on said gay little island only.
>>
>>12752918
oh it's that gay time padding shit. the donkey kong games did it too.

Nope, Nintendo and Itoi co-own Mother and Itoi's company, Hobonichi, has released Mother merch.
>>
bump for a game i hate
>>
Speedruns of this game are insane
>>
>>12750573
Yoshi's island for the SNES is a fantastic game, a masterpiece even. Shame about the series it spawned.

has the best looking yoshi

It's insane how the minigame VS mode was hidden behind a secret method.
It actually makes me mad because I could have enjoyed playing it with friends and siblings back in the day but I just had no clue.
The worst part? I actually owned magazines that gave it away, but it seems I was too dumb as a kid to read all of the pages and just skimmed through looking at the pics.
>>
>>12750573
It was without a doubt one of the games I've ever played.
