Yoshi's Story

Post by Set »

Random person: But...that game is old! Why are you bringing it up now?
Me: 'Cuz I feel like it. *tosses nuclear duckie at the random person*

On a semi-unrelated note, I love Yoshies! They're so cute!

...What's the plural for "Yoshi" anyway? Yoshies or Yoshis? I think it's "Yoshis", but I tend to use the other spelling.

Mmmkay so I felt like digging up my copy of Yoshi's Story and playing it again. I looked up a few things online, and found instructions on how to get a purple Yoshi, and even Boshi. What I want to know is are they really in the game or is it just bogus?

The purple Yoshi would make sense, not sure about Boshi though. Why? Check out their shoes.

Yoshi - Shoes
Green - Red
Blue - Pink
Lt. blue - Purple
Red - Blue
Yellow - Green
Pink - Yellow
Black - White
White - Lt. blue

Going by this then, there's a purple Yoshi in there somewhere. Probably has black shoes too. Have any of you ever gotten him?

Well it is an older game. You'd be much better off trying to find it at a flea market.

I didn't find it at our local black market :( They threw out all there old PS1 and N64 games at the shop i went to as well! There mad!! Most of my games are retro, the originals are by far the best.

On that Smash Bros. game i fight Pikachu as Yoshi, its very unfair, Yoshi is far supirior.

I liked Yoshi's Island better. I completed Yoshi's Story within one afternoon. :(

Alot of people have complained that the game is too easy. If you try for the melon challenge, getting all the hearts and everything, it really isn't.

Yoshi's Island was really cool. Except, wasn't that the one with that annoying child? I hated that kid. That was one good thing about Yoshi's Story, there was no baby. (Correct me if I've got my games confused).

What, may I ask, is Boshi?

No, your right. But if you are a good gamer you won't lose that kid. :D

Well, I always got him back. But, after awhile I just found his whining annoying. Ugh.

Haha, yeah. But the overall gameplay was far more then Story. I at least had one day fun with Island.

Ehh... I played it years ago and now I find it sickeningly sweet. I feel like I could barf just seeing it. Give me giant demons impaling helpless conscripts anyday.

I Hated cuteness when I was younger. If it didn't blow stuff up, I wanted nothing to do with it back then.

...but now, as I grow older, I find that I enjoy sweet, happy, cute things more and more.Image

Yoshi Story is a game that is sorely missed in my collection.

...I intend to correct that error in the near future.

No no my friend, I'm reffering to the gameplay when I say that :evil:

I knew exactly what you meant.

-Whenever it is available, I play FPS games in "paintball" mode, or set the 'Blood/Gore' setting to Off.

-I am one of the few people in the world lame enough to learn and use the "Freindship" finishing moves in the classic Mortal Kombat games.

-I will often play WaveRace64 just to hear the super-enthusiastic announcer cheer me on.

-and even though I don't own the game (yet), I've played Yoshi Story, loved it, and hum the bubbly, happy-happy music to myself when I am bored.

Image ...obviously, I can't speak for both of us, but I find it much more satifying to be Jolly than Evil.

I didn't used to be like this...I've just grown into it.

But that's just me... Image I am such a DORK Image

Hmm... I've always loved violence and gore, played Duke 3D on mature mode since I was 6.

Well if you enjoy those cheerful things then good for you :D

It's that time of day again... back to the battlefield

So I assume no one's gotten either of them?

Boshi is a character from Super Mario RPG. He's a blue Yoshi with clawed feet and big red spikes on his neck. He wears sunglasses too if I remember right.

That's not lame. I used to do that too. (Of course...the only one I actually remembered without looking at the paper to see the button combination was Sindel's. I can't really do anything with Mortal Kombat anymore, I've forgotten all of it and lost the papers with all the moves.) I thought they were amusing, like the Babality finishers. (Those huge glasses on Johnny Cage cracked me up.)
