Yoshi’s New Island ROM Description

Yoshi’s New Island is a 2D side-scrolling platformer game developed by Arzest and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo 3DS. It was released in 2014 and is the third game in the Yoshi’s Island series.

The previous game in the Yoshi’s Island series, Super Mario World 2, has a successor called Yoshi’s New Island. The objective of this game is the same as that of its predecessor, which was to lead Yoshis while simultaneously safeguarding baby Mario and delivering him to his true parents. After the stork accidentally brought Mario and Luigi to the incorrect house, Kamek appears out of nowhere to grab the infants once more before the stork has a chance to remedy its dreadful error.

In Yoshi’s New Island, players control Yoshi as he escorts Baby Mario through a series of levels, using his unique abilities to defeat enemies and solve puzzles. Yoshi can use his long tongue to eat enemies and turn them into eggs, which can be thrown at other enemies or used to access new areas.

One of the key features of Yoshi’s New Island is the use of interactive environments, which can be manipulated using the Nintendo 3DS’ touchscreen. For example, players can draw clouds to create platforms or use the stylus to create gusts of wind to move objects.

The game’s story follows Yoshi as he tries to reunite Baby Mario with his brother, Baby Luigi, who has been kidnapped by the game’s main antagonist, Kamek. Along the way, players will encounter a variety of colorful characters and will have to use their skills and quick thinking to overcome challenges and defeat bosses.

Overall, Yoshi’s New Island received mixed reviews upon release, with some praising the interactive environments and charming characters, while others criticized the controls and difficulty. Despite this, it remains a popular entry in the Yoshi’s Island series and is worth checking out for fans of the platformer genre.
