@SimbabbadNo way, Yoshi's Story was the epitome of basic platforming, zero challenge, incredibly irritating music, loose controls and lack of variety. Such a HUGE step down from Yoshi's Island. Just an enormously mediocre title. Graphics were pretty though, I'll give it that. Gawd, just thinking about the terribly tedious process of having to *SNIFF-SNIFF* areas of a stage to find those freakin' melons fills me with buyer's remorse all over again. And it's been well over 10 years since I bought that game. Blech. EDIT: Btw, I'm not sticking up for Super Paper Mario in any way. I wasn't terribly impressed by that game, either. It's just that I think that Yoshi's Story is the worst thing Nintendo has ever made, ever. Nothing is going to rinse that proverbial 'awful taste' from my mouth. |

Simbabbad said:You're mistaken. Yoshi's Story is an excellent game and a much better platformer than DKCR, incidentally. You guys ever read something and it hits you with such force that it actually has a physical effect on you? Like, your heart starts beating faster and you reel back in your chair, overwhelmed by the information you've read and the myriad of ways to respond to it? That just happened to me. Both DKCR, Kirby 64, and Super Paper Mario all had something very important that's missing from Yoshi's Story: CONTENT! Seriously, the game is like 20 minutes long. And this could've easily been salvaged if the melon hunt was any fun, but combing each level in a stop-and-go sniffathon is about as tediously slow as gameplay can possibly get. At least DKCR's flowers were fairly sparse and not invisible hiding spots that you'd never know were there unless you blow on everything in the level. On a related note about Yoshi's Story, Nintendo has always been "cute." Pokemon's cute, Kirby's cute as heck, even Mario's cute. But Yoshi's Story went beyond the pleasant charm of the usual Nintendo game and became something far worse: cutesy. Cutesy-ness is cute in a bad way. It's the Teletubbies of the world, the Barneys, the exact spot where the line is drawn between "acceptable, adorable, funny, and charming" and into "embarrassing." And I love cute stuff! Enough to make comics about it! But Yoshi's Story just went down a scary road, and one that I hope Nintendo doesn't return to anytime soon. |
