    Classic Game Room HD reviews YOSHI'S ISLAND for Super Nintendo SNES from 1995! Also known as Super Mario World 2, Yoshi's Island is an amazing 16-bit side scroller with incredibly deep gameplay with intelligent design that separates it from the normal side scroller. You play as a variety of Yoshis (I didn't know there was more than one!) who are trying to rescue baby Mario's twin brother Luigi! Luigi was kidnapped!? Amber Alert! Yoshis embark on the adventure of a lifetime through 40 some stages packed with hidden items, coins, flowers and bad guys. Jump, hop, run and eat enemies. After eating them Yoshi can turn them into eggs which he shoots at objects or just spit them out as projectiles. Very clever! While it may look like a children's game Yoshi's Island is much more. Amazing visuals, well produced music and gameplay that is miles ahead of most games makes this one a must play for fans of Mario games and side scrollers. This CGR review of Yoshi's Island has gameplay from the SNES game cartridge, Yoshi's Island showing game play from Super Nintendo in action during the review of Yoshi's Island, Super Mario World 2.

    The two Super Mario World games are easily, by far, the best games in the classic Mario era.
    I'll take Yoshi's Island as my favourite of the two for a few things: the unique art style, outstanding graphics (even nowadays you are not seeing better-looking 2D games), the different playstyle to all other Mario games, and the fact it makes Yoshi everyone's favourite Mario character.
    The first Super Mario World game is still great, though, but I rank it lower for it not being much more than a refined Super Mario Bros. 3

    • @Jack_80
      @Jack_80 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      it surprises me how many people rank super mario world higher. yoshi's island has longer, more challenging levels, which gives it much higher replay value imo. smw is still a great game but it never amazed me the way yoshi's island still does to this day.

    I remember in the 6th grade one of my friends bringing a Nintendo magazine to school and there was a whole review on this game and it was coming soon to Australia. My mate and I were very pumped!! My parents bought me the game as soon as it was released and I was amazed!! This game is up there for me as the greatest game of all time!

    One of the most amazing things about this game was a feeling of ambiance in every level. You truly felt you were on a massive adventure as the Yoshis all tag-teamed to save both babies. Every boss battle felt original and absolutely unique...and EPIC! The art and music absolutely sucked you in in a way few other games have. This is a rare game from ANY era.

    Yoshi's Island is one of the single greatest videogames EVER created. It blows my mind how many reviews I see where people say it is "good"... you may as well as call Ocarina of Time good in that case. This game is every bit as masterful as the original Super Mario World,and in many ways, more. The level design is brilliant, the control some of the tightest and most consistent ever achieved. The graphics were pushed to the limits of the SNES. The music is incredible. The challenge level and reward for skill is unmatched in the entire Mario universe. Shame on anyone who does not see a 100/100 game when it ever so rarely appears on the market.

    Thanks for reviewing this. I got into SNES by accident, when my stepsister gotten PS and gave me her SNES like in 1997 (or 98). This one was my favorite game and I killed countless hours playing it with my cousins. I beat it, too. Also I had a mazazine (or guide that came with it), it was very helpful, had all maps, tips on how to get somewhere and how to kill enemies. But when my niece was pregnant I gave my SNES to her and that thing got broken...Thank god for emulation and hacked Wii!!!

    For those of you who don't know, this game was originally released for the Super NES as Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. The game was later ported to the GameBoy Advance as Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3. The game was then sequelized for the DS as Yoshi's Island DS.

    I actually own this game and two snes's version one the big clunky one and version two the slimmer model no.2. I actually own this game several times over, two snes copies, many rom copies, one on my psp, one on my gba, one on my wii. As well as the sequel however i do think this was one of Nintendo's best games ever made. Few live up to the pick up and play style.

I was not prepared for that final transformation. Easily my favorite moment in any SNES game ever.

Brings tears to my eyes...so much fun, such good memories and looking at crappy games now that kids play, its just horrible!

    My younger cousin told me he got Modern Warfare 2, and then he recently told me he beat the game. The first thing that came to my mind, is that games took me weeks to beat back when I was his age. Games like Yoshi's Island would last me a really long time, but now we have games that the single player portion can be beat in a weekend or afternoon.
