Old Games: Encyclopedia Bombastica: Yoshi's Island

Touch fuzzy, get dizzy, and spit truths about the SNES platformer that Patrick didn't realize needed any defending in the first place.

You've found yourself at the base of Giant Bomb's Old Games.

UNRELATED RANT: How Jeff ever got away with dismissing such an amazing, important game still baffles me. Like imagine if Brad just said "yeah, GTA IV wasn't really grabbing me in the first 4 hours so I shut it off and I will literally never give it another shot again." Or if Roger Ebert was like "yeah, Godfather Part II wasn't really clicking with me in the first 5 minutes so I shut it off and yeah it's terrible."

P.S.: Patrick was probably a little drunk.

I remember playing this game back in the day, and LOVING it... everything about it was just awesome as a platformer, it just mixed everything great about the SNES in one last great Nintendo game and executed it perfectly... cant really see what is "wrong" with it... i really really cant understand Jeff´s point... to this day, this game is the responsible for many of Nintendo´s platformer mechanics and platformer themes used over and over again! - If it really was a bad game, then not much of that stuff would´ve been re-used!! - Anyway, I totally agree with Pat, this game is just beautiful and deserves its place in the videogame world!! :)
