Okay, I see a commercial for "Super Mario World 2," then a little later it's like the game never existed. When I get a Super Nintendo I try to rent it, but nobody's heard of it. I finally find "Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island" at Best Buy for an insane price. I figure it's worth it to get a continuation of "Super Mario World," so I buy it.
I get home and pop it into the system, expecting something close to "Super Mario World" and there's this fruity scenery and a bunch of cartoon dinosaurs that look like they were drawn by a 4 year old and awful music. When the dumb setup is over I'm not even playing Mario, no, I'm a goofy-looking Yoshi with a BABY Mario in the worst world Nintendo programming has ever devised. And it doesn't get any better.
THAT is a Nintendo horror story, the horrendous disappointment of "Yoshi's Island."
