Sûpâ Mario: Yosshî Airando

This game pits you as Yoshi, who made his debut in the previous Mario game, Super Mario World, which was one of the SNES's first games. This time, you must guide Baby Mario to his brother, who has been kidnapped by the evil Kamek.

The action takes place over six worlds, each comprising eight stages, plus two mystery stages that can only be accessed when all eight of the main stages have been completed with a perfect score of 100 (see below).

Loads of baddies exist. There are some familiar ones, such as Koopa turtles, Boo Diddlies, Lakitu and Goomba, as well as new ones such as Milde, Goonies and a different kind of Piranha Plant. As well as jumping on the smaller ones as per the previous games (and using shells exactly as before), you can also swallow baddies to make eggs to throw at other baddies and power-ups etc..

You collect coins as normal, with every 100 giving you an extra life, but as well as that, twenty red coins exist (most are disguised as yellow coins). You can also collect five flowers in each stage (if you can find them), which will give you an extra life if you get them all.

If Yoshi gets hit, Mario gets knocked off his back, and he has a limited amount of time to get him back on his back before Kamek's Toadies kidnap him, costing you a life. This timer normally starts at ten, but can be increased via power-ups and collecting stars.

When you reach the Goal at the end of each stage, your score for that stage is based on the number of stars you have (i.e., the level of the aforementioned timer, which has a maximum of 30), how many red coins you found, and how many flowers you picked up (each flower gives you ten points). If you have all 30 stars, all 20 red coins and all five flowers, you get a perfect score of 100 for that stage.

This game is brilliant, from the sumptuous graphics (with the obligatory Mode 7, particularly on the bosses) to the wonderful sound, and the gameplay is so slick and varied that even if you have Super Mario World, this is different enough to warrant a purchase. It's also quite challenging at times, particularly the bonus stages I mentioned earlier.

GET IT NOW IF YOU CAN!

I first played this way back as a kid, but Baby Mario's ear-piercing cries were so annoying, I couldn't finish it. I tried it again a few years later and finally got the hang of it enough to finish the game.

The story explains Mario and Luigi's origins and shows how their feud with Bowser all began and how Yoshi knows them.

Thanks to the Super FX2 chip, the games graphics are a step up from the SMW. The sprites are much better detailed and had beautifully fluid movements that reminded me of Donkey Kong Country. There were even some pre-rendered 3D graphics used cutscenes and for Baby Bowsers supersized advancing boss sprite.

I loved the cartoonish level layouts and backgrounds. The scenery is all hand drawn. The boss fights are more challenging, especially the final one where you must carefully and aim and throw red eggs at Baby Bowsers face before he destroys the platform you're standing on.

As a substitute for Mario, Yoshi really shines in this game with his very own move set that involves jumping, ground pounding, hovering, and throwing eggs at enemies. It really helped build him up as a true game character and hero instead of just a gimmick character to assist Mario.

There are more advanced and quirky vocalizations, like Yoshi's record-scratch call and tongue slurping sound, Kameks jabbering and Baby Bowser's high-pitched roars and growls. And, infamously, we've got Baby Mario's ear-piercing cries. I'm guessing the designers wanted to make him as annoying as possible to keep you on your toes and avoid losing him.

Returning composer Koji Kondo gave the game a soundtrack is as awesome as the predecessor like the catchy and playful Flower Garden and Athletic level themes. But best of all was the rapid and pulse-pounding heavy metal song played during the final battle against the super-sized baby Bowser.

Just like the prequel, Yoshi's Island is still fun to play and is available on the Nintendo Switch.

I love the Super Mario games, especially 3, Mario Land 2, and this one, the prequel to all the Mario games. The music is pretty cool and I love the cave levels and the way they look. Not too hard, but there are some difficult areas. The ending is especially satisfying cause it's Mario's biggest challenge. ***** out of *****. Here's my reviews of he the other Mario games(That i've played.)Super Mario Bros. ****, Super Mario Bros. 2 ****1/2, Super Mario Bros. 3 *****, Super Mario Land ***1/2, Super Mario Land 2 *****, Warioland: Super Mario Land 3 ****, Donkey Kong ****, Super Mario Kart ****, Mario Kart 64 ****1/2, Super Mario 64 ****1/2, Super Mario World ****1/2, and Mario's Time machine ***1/2.

This one surprised me. When I heard that the next Mario game would star Yoshi, I was a bit skeptical. Sure, I like that rascal, but hey, you can't upstage Mario (unless you're Luigi. How many other people out there prefer to be player 2?)! Well, once I played it, all my doubts went out the window. Original gameplay (flawless as always for the big N), beautiful and lively graphics, and shyguys a-plenty (my personal fave). Now, for anyone that says this game is too easy, I can assure you that they did not collect all the items in the game. Each stage has a letter rating, based on the amount of red coins, flowers, etc. you collect. The process of collection is never tedious, but always challenging, especially near the end. Sure, tearing through the game from start to finish might be a medium challenge, but doing it right is a challenge worthy of most gamers, one which will be a joy to complete.
