Mario Chat / Re: Super Mario World VS Yoshi's Island

« on: May 01, 2001, 07:21:41 AM »

I bought "Yoshi's Island" expecting it to be about as good as "Super Mario World," or at least as good as "Super Mario Bros."  When I started playing it I was so disgusted I considered returning it.

"Yoshi's Island" is the most disappointing video game ever connected to "Mario," and an embarassment to Nintendo.  It didn't sell, and pretty much everybody agrees that it was lousy.

I wrote an in-depth review of it, but I haven't put it on my site yet due to computer problems.

Just curious: What is a "perhiphial?"  The word looks like a Greek cognate, but it's not in the dictionary.

Oh, I thought it had to be a non-"Mario" game.  For "Mario":

1. "Super Mario Bros. 3"
2. "Super Mario Bros."
3. "Super Mario Bros. 2: The Dream Machine"

Comparing "Super Mario World" and "Yoshi's Island" is like comparing "Aliens" and "Alien 3," or "Batman Returns" and "Batman Forever."  One has almost everything, the other has nothing and just drags the first one down with it.  The graphics, music, controlling, enemies, items, and replay value are all noticably better in "Super Mario World" than in "Yoshi's Island."  And, for Yoshiboshi, "Yoshi's Story" is better than "Yoshi's Island" (not by much, though).

To my knowledge, Nintendo has never said specifically that there is NOT a Yoshi egg in "Super Mario 64," so it is theoretically possible.  I just personally doubt it.  It is probably made up, or maybe the result of some misunderstanding.

The cutest character is definately Yoshi.  Especially the little Yoshi that hatches from the egg in Special.

I think he should sound like he did in the show.

I personally thought "A Little Learning" was surprisingly deep for a childrens' cartoon show.

As I mentioned before on this board, Crow points out the similarity between one of the evil scientists in "Parts: The Clonus Horror" and Mario.

"Super Mario Bros." is by far the most glitched-up "Mario" game.  Most bugs (humorous and annoying alike) only apply to the original Nintendo cartridge, though, since the "Super Mario All-Stars" and "Super Mario Bros. Deluxe" clean up a lot of them to make gameplay easier.

We all miss the Koopa Kids!

I think they were last in "Yoshi's Safari" (unless you count the baby Bowser in "Yoshi's Island") as a Koopa Kid).  I haven't played it, but it doesn't seem to be too popular among "Mario." fans.

My favorite is Ludwig (Kooky in the show).

PenguinWizard-Don't expect intelligent replies from this board.  Whenever I post something deep and thought-provoking none of the responses are relevent to what I said.  : )
