I purchased this for my 8 yr old and she loves it..She plays it all the time. She likes it better than Super Mario. I would recommend this product.

Yoshis Island DS is the sequal to the original Yoshis Island. It is basically the same game but with some added stuff. You still have the same abilities like swallowing enemies, shooting eggs, ground pounding, jumping and fluttering, and if you touch an enemy the baby falls off and you have seconds to get it back.

In the first Yoshis Island baby mario was always with yoshi but now there are more including peach, DK, Wario, and Bowser. Each of the babies gives yoshi different abilities.

MARIO: Sprint
PEACH: Hover Longer
DK: Climbing vines, swinging, and a dash attack
Wario: Attracts coins
Bowser: Shoot Fire

I have only got to DK so far and the babies keep getting better as you go along.

If You liked the first Yoshis Island you will like this one even more. If you havent then you should definitley pick this one up.

Pretty good game

I liked this game alot. It was the first game i bought for my Nintendo DS. Although the sound can get a little annoying, it is still a fun game.
I have not beat it yet and I have had it for about a month now. I recommend you buy this if it is one of your first games. It might be too easy for experienced people.

Not as good as SMW2: Yoshi's Island

Yoshi's Island for the SNES was a great game. This game is an ok game. What's different? Yoshi's Island DS is a difficult game. The SNES YI is easy to beat, but so fun that you will spend hours trying to get 100 on all the levels. YI DS will leave you either happy just barely getting through the level or just getting frustrated and turning the game off. What I miss most from the first game are the items. The items collected in mini-games made the mini-games worth playing. In YI DS the mini-games are harder, less enjoyable, and only get you coins and extra lives. Speaking of lives, you can get more than 100 in YI DS making getting extra lives pointless. Like many of nintendo's sequels lately (except the wonderful New SMB) it is an ok, playable game, but only if you've never played the original.

A GOOD GAME FOR ALL FAMILY

I was a huge fan of the original Yoshi's island as well as the GBA version.

I think this was one of my most anticipated titles on the DS. (i love yoshi)

I love it , have played to land 4 now, and am very happy to see an update in playablility, by adding the other babies, peach, kong, wario.

This is more of an update to the old game than a remake.

The game does not use the novelty of the touchscreen at all, it does however, use both screens to show your new side scrolling and vertical world of wonder, with updated graphics and new creatures all around.

A 'must have' DS title for any nintendo fan.

BEST PLATFORM GAME EVER!

This is the BEST Mario/Yoshi game EVER! (on par with the original Yoshi's Island). Many of the levels are the same from the SNES game with many added features. The game allows for more babies now to add different powers etc. If you are a pro at these games then its simple but going back through each level to find all of the bonus stuff can be more challenging and fun. The graphics are pretty great too (but only really just a bump up from the original) The graphics have more color though along with lengthier levels added giving it more guts. You can also look up or down to look for hidden things making good use of the dual screens. The game is actually a perfect game, perfect controls, perfect graphics (cmon its a Yoshi game folks!), perfect for any fan of Mario/Yoshi!

Is this truly the Best platform game ever made!

The Super Nintendo version of Yoshi's Island was a favorite and I was super thrilled when this came out. It wasn't what I was expecting it to be... Not as much action in it.

Way too kiddish --

I bought this game because I thought it would be like New Super Mario, which I really liked. This game is for really little kids. There is no challenge value, and the game is pretty boring. Don't get this if you are an adult player!
