its a cool game for ds. people who are new to ds might enjoy this, but if you want the best nintendo ds moment, you should get nintendogs. i own it and i love it. yoshi touch and go is soo..................simple. but yet a very fun small game i personally play it every week or two and it dosnt get boring but...not what i expected for a mario game (if your a party mario, or a super mario fan you also might enjoy this) overall, a wonderfull simple cool game. but for 30 dollars, its not worth it.
Good Game

Yoshi touch and go is a great game. On like most of the ds games so far, it has a great use of the touch screen. The game is very fun, but there is no real story mode, just four different ways to play, and two have to be onlocked. But the multiplayer race mode is awsome.

I was nervous when I bought this game. Really, it's so unique, it will be a big hit or a horrable disaster. My worries were sort of at ease after I began the game. Instantly, I noticed some flaws. If your like me, you just touch a mode and assume they're going to explain the version to you, well they don't. Instead you have to look for a (fairly small) "Demo" button.
What kind of button is Demo? I mean honestly!
After you understand the whole game you can enjoy it much more. Just thought I would mentioned some flaws before I start my review.
Storyline 2/10: A stoke (bird) is carrying something very speacial... a set of twins. (Mario and Luigi.) I would like to point out now that Mario and Luigi are not twins! As stated from paper mario: "Hey BIG BRO, you got mail." or something like that. Unfortianatley, Kamek comes and knocks Baby Mario out of the stoke's cradle! That's it. Now I know your thinking 'That at least deserves a 3!' Well, let me explain. In order to know what the Storyline is, you must *gasp* read the instruction booklet. In other words they never ever explain the storyline!
Graphics: 3/10: Not impressed. They look like the graphics were ment for gameboy!
Strategy: 6/10: You must strategically place clouds to maximize points/survival/other. You must think hard yet quick, don't get me wrong though, this is nothing like meteos!
Cons:
-The whole point of the game is to make the high score list, not save mario!!!
-This seems like it could get extremely dull without a couple of people to compete for the high score.
-You can't enter your initials.
Overall: If you want to kill some hours, I would reccomend this. If you want a game that will last you forever, try nintendogs.
this game stinks big time

Yoshi touch and go sounds like a neat title. But no. I had the brains not to buy one because my approach was "Whoopdee-doo another 2d side scrolling game" I mean, come on Nintendo DS has amazing potentiol if you just utilized its power and didn't base games on your budget. Thanks for reading my review.
A completely new gaming experience

From the moment I first played Yoshi Touch & Go, I knew it was nothing like anything I had ever played before. The game uses the themes of Yoshi's Island from the SNES era, but in this game, rather than controlling Yoshi directly, Yoshi walks on his own and you have to draw clouds on the touch screen to help him cross pits and trap enemies and coins in bubbles so he can retrieve them. You can also tap Yoshi to make him jump, and keep tapping him to make him stay in the air longer. YT&G resembles an arcade game in many ways, such as the fact that the only goal you are trying to accomplish is to get the highest score (which can be very hard). You start out with 2 game modes, Score Attack (trying to get the high score) and Marathon (an endless game where you simply try to get as far along the path as possible). The very fast gameplay takes a while to get used to, but once you get into the game, you'll find it to be highly addictive and very fun.
they could have done so much more with this

I really want to like this game. Its stylus-action-game gameplay is very, very solid, probably even better than the gameplay of Kirby's Canvas Curse. But this game does so, SO very much less with the engine than the great game Canvas Curse does.
Some people will find enough satisfaction from this game playing for high scores in each of the four modes. As for me, I am only good enough at the game to complete one of the modes, and what I see just isn't enough to keep me playing to improve. Four modes - that's what this game has. The goal is slightly different in each one. But each one has just two stages - Mario falling, and Yoshi carrying Mario. And once you take a single hit from an enemy, it's game over and start from the beginning (or midpoint).
If you want this kind of stylus gameplay guiding the hero and keeping him safe with the stylus, get Kirby: Canvas Curse for DS. Though Yoshi probably has the better play engine, Kirby does so much more with his engine that he puts Yoshi to shame.
Lots of fun while it lasts, which isn't too long

It's frustrating how few games there are for the DS---my sons got one for Christmas but we have found very few games they enjoy for it, as there are very few games PERIOD! This one is a LOT of fun, for a short time! It's as if someone had a great idea for a game, but rushed it out and never finished it. Basically, you draw clouds for Baby Mario to glide down from a tree on, circling coins to throw at him to collect as the circles make a bubble to make them movable, and circling enemies to bubble them in and protect Mario. Yoshi catches Mario at the bottom of the tree, if you make it, and then you do a platform run that is similar, but horizonal---you make bridges with clouds and collect coins, and also fruit for Yoshi, so he can shoot enemies more directly. In one mode you are trying to get a certain score, in another, to get as far as you can. You unlock a few more modes by doing this. It sounds simple, but the levels are well designed, and in the marathon mode, they come up randomly, so you never know what's coming next. It's very addictive trying to get Mario further! However, we unlocked all the modes fairly quickly, and there really isn't anything else to aim for except getting very high scores---you don't WIN the game, you don't collect anything new to use, you just play on and on and on. We only have one DS---we did unlock a 2 player mode which my son tried with a friend---he said it really wasn't too different than anything else included except you were competing with another player for a high score. I can't say I didn't enjoy this game, but I don't think we'll ever play it much more---so it was a bit pricey and a little disappointing.
cirby vs yoshi
