Welcome to Modojo, 
Coming Soon: Yoshi's Island DS
Written by Modojo on Wednesday, November 8, 2006
With all the Final Fantasy goodness, thanks to XII, V, and III being released within weeks of each other, it's easy to overlook other games coming out at the same time. Yoshi's Island on the original SNES was an underappreciated jewel of a platformer, and Yoshi's Island DS is no different. The visuals bring a smile to my face because the heavy outlines and bright colors remind me of how much fun I've had in the SNES version. Those familiar with the original should feel right at home with this one, as it controls the same.
With all the next gen craze, it's good to see what looks to be a quality platformer. It's endearing when developers are still interested in making a fun game even if it's not the most technically advanced game out there.
