Yoshi’s Island DS

Yoshi’s Island on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System has been heralded as one of the best toys ever released on the classic console, and now those people who spent countless time playing through the game on Super Nintendo can relive old memories with Yoshi’s Island DS for the Nintendo DS.

Unlike previous Nintendo DS games like Super Mario 64 DS, which are direct ports, or copies, of a previous game, Yoshi’s Island DS is a sequel to Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island on the Super Nintendo. Yoshi’s Island DS does a magnificent job in recreating the same look and feel that made the original Yoshi’s Island such a success way back when.

One thing that is sure to catch the attention of the young children in your family is, without a doubt, the colorful, childish art style in this kids’ toy. You will be hard pressed to find any game that looks more fitting for a toddler than Yoshi’s Island DS.

The great thing about Yoshi’s Island DS is that you don’t have to be one of the many who have played the original Yoshi’s Island. People who may not be big video game players, or younger kids who weren’t around during the days of Super Nintendo and SEGA Genesis, will be able to pick up and play without missing out on any of the fun. This is also true with the gameplay, which is both incredibly simple and surprisingly deep. In other words, young kids will find hours of fun just running around with Super Baby Mario and Yoshi completing levels, while the older crowd will be sucked in by their desire to look for all the hidden secrets.

On a handheld that is already stacked with quality titles, Yoshi’s Island DS towers above the majority of the Nintendo DS games library. Do yourself a huge favor and buy this game today.
