Time for another review by IB122, this review this time is on Yoshi's Island for the Nintendo DS. This game is a sequel to Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island for the SNES, This game right here has introduced a whole lot of new elements in the Yoshi series like having newer enemies, newer babies each with abilities and with a lot of more goodies within this game as well, although this game got fewer levels, but to even it out, it's got a lot inside. Ok, enough with the intro, let's get going with the review my friends. The Graphics: The graphics in Yoshi's Island DS is pretty amazing for a handheld version, I think personally they really did a great job from the graphics they made in the SNES version, with this game, they made the colors blend in a little bit more than in the SNES version (although the SNES version was a 16-bit game). but still, I personally think graphic wise, this game came out really outstanding and all and all the character spites in the game look a little more clearer than they were in the SNES version, and with the new enemies out, on how they look, it's really outstanding, the only disadvantage I got to give with the graphics can be a tiny bit off here and there, but I personally don't think this'll be much of an issue though in this game. On how really great the graphics turned out in this game, I give this a 9 out of 10 ---- The Sound/Music: The sound effects haven't much changed than from the SNES version, although some have changed, it's really depending on what the effects are like the rocks and boulders crashing down sound a whole lot different than from the SNES version, the crashing sound sound a little more clearer and a little more smoother than on the SNES version, and a couple other sound effects have also changed as well, but most of them are recycled from the SNES version of Yoshi's Island. As for the music, the music really changed from the SNES version, in a way, I like both versions of the songs, but on the DS version alone I think the music is all pretty good, if's got more of a softer melody than on the SNES version had, but still, they both sound really nice though. Although most of the sound effects are recycled from the SNES version, but the music was really well done, I give this an 8 out of 10 ---- The Addiction Level: The addiction level is pretty good for this game, although this game isn't as addicting as the SNES version of the game, but still personally this game is a little bit addicting, although not a whole lot of people have this game but I think once you started playing it, you can start being hooked on it mostly if you happen to have a DS and don't have a SNES or can't be able to play it on an emulator so in a way, not a very addicting game, but it is addicting to a certain extent though if you feel like killing some time though. With what I mentioned above, I do happen to give the addiction level a 7 out of 10. ---- The Story: The story of Yoshi's Island DS takes place after the events of the SNES game, both Baby Mario and Baby Luigi. Yoshi and Baby Mario went onto a huge adventure to rescue Baby Luigi from Bowser (who was also a Baby at the time), and once the Babies returned, that was it, but think again. Kamek happens to steal the babies once again this time their plan was going good until the stork manage to free two of the babies (both Mario and Peach) while fighting back, and the babies falls to the ground on Yoshi's island again (like last time). So, once the Yoshis sees that the babies needs help once again to save Baby Luigi, they're off for yet, another adventure and this time, they start running into more babies like Donkey Kong, Wario and yes, even Baby Bowser (strangely), and once you get to the end, you battle Bowser once again and rescue Baby Luigi once again. This story is all well done and really wonderful, I give this a perfect 10 out of 10 ---- The Depth: Their have been a lot of changes from the SNES version, both good and bad, some of the good things I do got to mention about Yoshi's Island is that you can control 5 different babies, Mario, Peach, Donkey Kong, Wario and yes, even Bowser, and each babies all have a very unique powers and abilities to do like Mario's Dash, Peach's hovering, to DK's power, to Wario's coin-stealing, to Bowser's fire power, you really got a whole lot to do, but the only bad thing in this game from the SNES version is the lack of power-ups that were in the SNES version which at some extent could be a little useful in this game, but that's mostly it in this game though. Also, it's just not the newer features in the game, it's also some of the changes in the mini-games as well, personally I think the SNES mini-games are a little better, but these mini-games in the DS version are still as good as well. Also like I mentioned in the intro, they're not a lot of levels in the DS version, but to make that all up, each of the levels in this game really got a whole lot to fill in that missing gap and to add on top of that, you can also check out the enemy museum to see what all enemies you have taken care of in the entire game which is really fun to look at here and there. With what I mentioned about the Depth, I happen to give this an 8 out of 10 ---- The Difficulty: The difficulty is slightly harder than the SNES version, but not really by much though. In this game, this game is pretty easy to play if you're mostly on what you're doing in the game, but like typical games, it'll get a little more harder to accomplish the more later on you go on and when you face Bowser, it's going to take a couple attempts to defeat him in the final level but you'll be able to accomplish it and you're done with the game, but if you really want a hard challenge, try to complete it at a 100% (like getting all the stars, all the red coins, and all the flowers) in all of the levels and that can be pretty challenging but that's what we all like, a game with a challenge. So bottom line for the Difficulty in this game, it is pretty hard at first, but once you're used to the game, it can be pretty east. For the overall difficulty of the game, I'm going to say that this game's difficulty is a 8 out of 10 ---- Overall: Overall, what I got to say about this game, this game is a pretty interest game sequel to Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island for the SNES with newer adventures that Baby Mario and Yoshi's going to experience with including going with all of his friends as well. This game might not be like the first, but it is still a pretty fun and exciting game to try out if you haven't yet and you happen to own a Nintendo DS, I in a way would recommend this game, mostly if you happen to have a Nintendo DS with you and you feel like playing a Yoshi game, this game will be an interesting game for you to try out because it is a pretty fun game. With all I have mentioned about this one game, I would like to say that I'm giving this game an 8.3 out of 10, a pretty alright score, but my my opinion, I think the game could do a little better though, but still, not a really bad game nonetheless.
