But I didn't have a problem with that place.

It's okay to say the levels of YI2 are too easy and cheap. But do you really think the levels of the original Yoshi's Island were better? I don't think so.


@S1x: Thanks for the support


@Codie (again)

They are just placed right beside, when is't essential to switch the baby to come further. You don't always find these signs.
But tell me what they sould do otherwise. You come to a place in al level where you can just get along with Peach - but don't find a possibility to change the baby again or just one where you have to walk a far way back.
IF they would have done it this way, you would have complained, too.


Okay, that were TWO levels -.-
And you could easily master these parts even with the gap. I didn't have a problem with it.
The only hard thing was when you tried to get a flower or red coin. But for this challenge it is okay to have to play a level more than once.


Oh my god...
If you don't even try to get the 100-points score, it's obvious that you call YI2 easy, boring and cheap...


Yes, it is. Remember Tetris? Just a boring game with placing one block onto another. It just gets challenging because of the highscore you try to get.

Because seeing a rope, switching to DK with the stork pad that's placed right next to it, climbing said rope, seeing some wind, switching to Peach with the stork pad that's placed right next to it, sailing up said wind, seeing some dotted blocks, switching to Mario with the stork pad that's placed right next to them, and hitting said dotted blocks is really solid.

If you can do that while a giant rolling spiny thing or chain chomp is chasing you, you're a better man than I.

It might take 5 seconds, but I often found myself doing it every 5 seconds. Not only does that botch up the pacing of the game, it only works on the stationary stuff, not the moving stuff that goes back into the blind spot when you land.

Boring level design isn't exactly a little complaint.

How does finding a bunch of worthless trinkets fix a main game that sucks? If the main game is crap, why would I even want to find all the optional crap, fighting boring level design, slippery controls, and that stupid blind spot along the way?

Because it's okay to make a pissy game where all the challenging stuff is optional, and "challenging" means "finding a bunch of worthless trinkets".

No, but the screen size did.

Loved it. 100'd every level, including the bonus ones.


Where are these lemmings going? Not the Super Nintendo Super Shire! They know to go to Codiekitty.com now!

If I think there's something in the sky or something below me that might be not visible because it's within that "gap", 90% of the time I can either look up a little, or push down-X or up-X and switch screens, look quickly for anything while it's scrolling, and scroll back. If there's something that needs timing, like that rotating egg cloud, I either count the timing or jump to reveal it. Nearly every problem I think you can think of with that "gap" can be resolved that way. And it only takes about 5 seconds. That one issue was basically your biggest complaint; anything else I read was just minor complaints blown up too much, because all it takes to get around those is timing your jump a little differently or hovering a little bit.

Getting through the levels themselves without caring about score is easy enough, but for the really challenging parts, like collecting all the coins, flowers, and not getting hit, you don't even want to attempt that? I don't think I have the right to call something I own "easy" unless I try the difficult parts. The extra and special levels gave me trouble, even though I've pretty much mastered the SNES game.

As for other stuff... I agree that the music could have been more exciting and colorful. Graphics basically don't deviate much from the SNES game, but that's not exactly a bad thing. The ironic part about the crying is that it makes you really want to get back to that baby just to shut him up, which was also true for the last game. And Yoshi's size didn't really change much since before.

Wait, what did you think about the original Yoshi's Island, anyways?
You guys, what is going on?



P.S. My dad sneaked into here and tried the last few functions. Sorry...
