I like Yoshi but I hate this game

Like others have said, instead of having a true challenge to face, you have to put in the effort to keep yourself interested. This game has less than half of the levels compared to "Yoshi's Island", its predecessor. And the bosses are really easy to beat. But there is more.
This game is really babyish. The whole game is a storybook, and the story itself is about a "super happy tree" with a giant heart that the Yoshi's have to rescue. Then in the levels, Yoshi has to eat 30 fruit (which is really easy), but you have to find 3 smiling hearts and when you beat each world a giant smiling heart pops out. Also the music is really corny. The predecessor of this game, "Yoshi's Island", was action packed, had 54 levels, and it applied to all ages. This game should only be played by kids 7 years old and under. If you are older and you buy it, just be in for a shock when you see all of the "happy hearts".
Another thing-- the art design of the game really stinks. This is becuase the game was supposed to look like a storybook, but the game makers failed miserably. For example, sometimes the backround will look like someone's jeans, the backround of caves looks like newspapers, and the backround of some jungles looks like a couch-- not realistic at all. When you get down to 5 fruits, a box will pop up and it will say "5 more fruits to make the Yoshis grow happier." And when the page turns from world to world, the box says "the page turned and the Yoshis grew happier." I mean, what kind of game would say that? For power, you have a smiling sunflower with petals in the top-left corner. Overall, this is a relly corny game, and in you are above 7, you shouldn't get this game. In this game, Yoshi is made out to look like a babyish cute creature. Hopefully in the future there will be a Yoshi game worth playing. I'd expect more of a Yoshi game. This game was obviously made in a rush-- effort was not put into this game.

Very bad

This game is so bad! story 1: Fruits, fruit trees PATHETIC!;. Graphics: 3 only yoshis look cool not the drawings. Gameplay: 1 gobble 30 fruits your done and move on to the next stage. Music 2: Were yoshi's nothing these songs were totally Gheto. Replay3: Don't ask for this one. Overall: waste of money.

These are the kinds of games that make make people call the N64 a "kiddy" system. This game is pure utter rubbish. Don't buy it. There is a borderline between cute and annoying, and Yoshi's Story steps over it. I cannot stomach this game, it makes me feel like I am gagging on a mixture of honey, maple syrup and molasses. But I suppose since I am 15 I would hate this... If you have very small infants in your household, or you yourself have the mental age of a 3 year old, then mabye you could consider RENTING it.

This game is awful

This is the worst game I have ever played. I bought it thinking it would be like most other mario games: challenging and long lasting. I brought this game home, finished it in half an hour, and have hated it ever since. Later, I decided to try to get some more game for my money by trying to find every secret of the game. That took me only another couple of hours. This game isn't worth the money.

Not that good

This game was not very exiting and the moves are so easy.
On a lot of levels there are cracks in the ground that you could fall into but all you have to do is hover right over them. This
game is totally for little kids. The bosses are wicked easy. The only good graphic is Yoshi. All the other parts are colored in crayon. (...)

ok

actually, it IS after a SNES game "Yoshi's Island". It is a cool SNES game, but is even worse in N64.

There Are Some Real Idiots Reviewing This

I can't believe anyone would enjoy playing this disturbingly Teletubby-like game. Run around and touch smiley faces, creating flowers that you can climb on! Whoo-hee. By the way, the reviewer Tanner is a complete idiot. It's obvious he's some 5-year-old who can't even spell Surprise. He thinks he can give us hints? He thinks levels are hard? For cryin out loud, you can beat this game in 5 minutes! But I don't wish to, I'd much rather be dead.
