Lemur Crisis posted:The talk in the video about this game being divisive and "people who like this game" makes it sound like there are more than three people in the world who dislike it, which is pretty weird. Seriously, who has ever thought of the quality of Yoshi's Island as "controversial"?

The level of unfamiliarity with the controls of Yoshi's Island is kind of interesting to watch.

Didn't Yoshi's Island sell a lot less than previous Mario games did? I always figured it was unpopular because it was different. I too was super jealous of SNES owners because this game looked so cool, by the time I got to play it I wasn't as interested in platformers so I kinda rushed through the main stages and left it at that. I've been looking forward to this part of the LP, are you guys going to get all the secret stages?

I had a Genesis growing up, so I've never played Yoshi's Island. I really need to get around to that.Davinci posted:I can't believe you guys just flat out ignored that sick-rear end title screen music. I had no idea the Yoshi island song in Paper Mario was a remix!

That sure was a whole lot of hardcore glossing over prominent stuff just begging to be experimented with. When they ran right by that watermelon with their dinosaur that eats anything, it got clear that Kyle won't be buying what the game sells. They should just carry on to other games that they'll actually enjoy.

I highly recommend watching this, even for just a couple levels. Unlike some TASes it's actually pretty easy to follow what's going on, too.

You guys are terrible at Mario games, how is that even possible. Is this what Sega did to a generation? Is this the product of X-Box gaming? That you can't smile like a goon when you see Yoshi and his pals running through a technicolor dreamscape? This is because of New England. The lack of sunlight has frozen your souls into lifeless husks.

Mario RPG is great just because of the ways they use to get Mario to express himself. I hope there's a full playthrough, it's not like it's a hard or dull game. It might just take some creative editing to get past repeated fights, or hell in a slower paced game where there ARE repeated fights, it might go well their podcast-y type commentary.

The sparkly red egg had a Red Coin in it by the way, which is actually a very rarely-used and kind of stupid mechanic in this game they only ever use twice  also that mole tank powerup respawns. They always respawn, just in case you see that again in future before you start leaving too quickly and calling the game a bummer.Fawf posted:I'd assume lower sales at least partly had to do with the fact that by the time Yoshi's Island came out the world had seen Mario 64 and started moving on from the SNES Maybe top three in Nintendo overall, I'm not sure yet but definitely up there. It's got such a charm and colour to it, it's so beautiful in the way it handles backgrounds and foregrounds, the colouring scheme is just gorgeous, the bosses are fantastically fun for me, plus getting to do the game 100% is a massive loving challenge even by Mario standards, purely because the special stages (at least 2 of them) are just absolute fuckfests of hatred through physics on the SNES. I can't wait to see more of this now. I would not call it controversial at all though, I think you're definitely wrong there Kyle, just because it didn't sell well is not always because the game itself is bad as has been stated above. I've never known anyone to genuinely hate this game. Slowbeef I know tried to play this game and he wasn't into it, but he didn't HATE it rather. He does however hate Yoshi so that's purely subjective, cuz I dunno anyone who actually played this game and said "I really do not like this game". I mean personally so. ...also I love Keith's Yoshi voice, I find it hilarious. FinalGamer fucked around with this message at 18:11 on Aug 14, 2014 |

Being from Massachusetts I can attest to the fact that everyone is scary zombies. Also I'm pretty sure Yoshi's Island was legitimately meant to be set in the past when Mario was a baby and that it all made sense before they hosed THE TIME STREAM.

You guys, there's really no way that Keith and Kyle would do a full Mario RPG playthrough. That game is like 15 hours long, and they don't do post-commentary. Maybe they'd do it as a patreon LP though, if enough people wanted it. E: and not only that, with the amount of people that love the game so much (myself included) they would almost definitely hate it.

Yeah I should know better, it is just that the sadist in me really wanted to see them doing the Poochy stage. Also because I never got to see the later bonus stages myself. The collectathon aspect of this game is evil. Maybe I should look them up in youtube.

The solution is to bring Jonbutton in. Kyle and Keith will record their voices to a soundboard, and he'll just talk about how cool RPGs are while occasionally pressing a button to get a canned reply from the cousins, and they can go off with their girlfriends and just drive, just drive into the sunset, Patreon dollars fluttering in the breeze behind them, laughing.

I actually kinda like the crazy overdone parallax in Sonic games (and genesis games in general). Maybe it's just nostalgia, it was neat looking in 1993. Also english muffins blow.

There are diners all over that will do a Benedict with hash instead of ham. Like probably the Miss Worcester Diner and that dining car downtown that's open 24 hours.
