hot mario ranking tank: both Galaxy games are bad and don't have any of the fun exploring a somewhat open-ended level like Sunshine/Odyssey/64 but also lack the more platform-focused challenges of the original games or the 3D World games and end up just being glorified tours for 98% of the game until you unlock the final, actual fun levels

hot take: open worlds are bad please stop shoving them everywhere and kill rockstar for their sins

100%ing yoshi's woolly world is as hard as a coffin nail. great game too, shame it was released on wii u. i hope the switch one is as good as it.
i heard nothing about it as to whether it was good or not, good to hear that it has some of that old magic

There was the stealth sequel Yoshi's Island DS, but that game is weirdly difficult.

i liked it a lot, it feels very responsive, especially jump moves compared to the original, but other than that yoshi pretty much has the same old moveset. there's flowers, red coins and balls of yarn, which you use to unlock new yarn-yoshis. there's a whole army of them by the end! the art style is also really lovely and the music is great and the last world (even without trying to clock it) is harder than anything in mario odyssey.

gently caress i am talking myself back into playing through it again!!! great game. criminally overlooked

Open world games have been really awful but then Nintendo remembered what made them cool and fun and made the best ones in more than a decade last year.

I didn't think Yoshi's Island DS was bad, just that the second half of the game is merciless and if you're looking for a casual romp, you're going to have a bad time.
