Accessories: Editorial Review: Product Description: Yoshi's Island: Super Mario 3 puts you in control of Yoshi for his wildest new adventure! You can even connect with three friends in a multi-player game of Mario Bros. Amazon.com Review: Oh no! It looks like your granddad was right--things really were better in the old days. At least they were if you liked 2-D platform games, and Yoshi's Island is indisputably one of the best ever made. Yoshi's Island goes back in time to recount the touching story of the various Yoshis' attempts to unite Baby Mario with his parents. You don't actually control the Italian plumber-to-be but instead his dinosaur pal, who has the curious ability to eat his enemies and then immediately turn them into eggs, which he can then fling at more enemies. Since Yoshi isn't particularly fast and can float in midair for a few seconds after making a jump, the whole dynamics of the normal Mario gameplay have changed, but the same incredible attention to detail and endless imagination that mark all of Nintendo's best efforts are still here in full effect. In fact they're joined this time, after the rather plain-looking prequel, by some wonderful pastel-shaded graphics that were jaw-dropping when the game was originally released in 1995 and still manage to impress now. As with the other Super Mario Advance titles, this game also contains a four-player version of the original Mario Bros. arcade game, making it even more of a bargain than it already was. --David Jenkins, Amazon.co.uk Average Rating:
 Rating:  - STILL a classic game by today's standards!Even though I like the more "modern" Nintendo games (for the DS in particular), Yoshi's Island stands out in the crowd as one game that you can play and enjoy. The colorful graphics and catchy music will have you playing "just one more" game before powering down for the evening. I had the opportunity to pick this game up again, and I am now glad that I did. It has all the pastel colors that lured me to it in the first place, and very responsive controls as well. Here's a breakdown below: Read More Rating: - Beautiful, simply beuatiful...Everthing about it sparks with glory...This game was the sequel to the most popular Super Mario World in the 1990's for the SNES, and is a platformer as is its predecessor, and not only that, it explains how Mario came to be. When the kind stork was carrying two baby orphans, Mario and Luigi, to their parents, flying across Yoshi's island, home to all Yoshis, it was assaulted by Kamek, the Koopa/Witch who worked for a little dragon named Bowser. She managed to snatch one baby, but the other, fell straight down onto Yoshis Island, and fell ...

And so if you get both you might play it more too. So try not to get super mario bros.3 okay? (-: Rating: - YOSHI ROCKSCant go wrong with this game. Yoshi is one of our favorite Nintendo characters and the game has alot of action. An adult may actually enjoy this game. Rating: - Yoshi's Island is a great gameWe purchased this game for my son(who is 10) and he really likes it. I asked him to tell me what he enjoys about it since I have never played the game myself. I figured the opinion of the 10-year-old player would be more useful. He gave it the 5-star rating. He says "It is cool that you can morph into different things and it has lots of different levels to play on." He also likes the "storyline" or "plot" of the adventure since Yoshi is one of his favorite characters. I can tell you that it IS NOT a ... Read More |
