This game really shows that you don't need fancy 3D graphics to be great

A pity it's gameplay and sound effects are annoying. Having a red yoshi from smw spitting fire would have greatly picked up the pace instead of what we got.

I consider Super Princess Peach to be a literal successor to the same soul that permeated Yoshi's Island.

Or maybe I just liked that you can fun full tilt in both games without having to hold down the B button? Control was snappy and responsive in SPP, too.

Yoshi's Island was being made 2 years before DKC even started development and the final game uses tons of gimmicks. The fake rivalry people push is stupidly embarrassing.

Im playing this right now and its not fun. Very easy, tepid. Feels like a fangame from Mario Fan Games Galaxy, but by an amateur. It has that same listlessness in the controls and level design. I get what you mean by it feeling like YI, but I consider it more of just TOSE aping the style than really continuing the style in earnest.

The amount of boomer coping really pisses me off
I grew up with great 2D and great 3D games. While Rayman 1 is unrivaled in visuallys, I'll never knock down Rayman 3 as one of my favorite looking 3D games, while I admire how everything in Rayman 2 was hand drawn to look like a painting.

3D can, and will, look as good as 2D .It's called having a vision, budget, and being a slave to the craft. Most people don't like being slaves, hence the push against it in the racial world. It's not a good thing the Japs still do it to themselves, just to prove a point. I rather they live happier lives than just being art monkeys.

No one shits on 3D. We are just saying that 3D doesn't necessarily mean better game like everyone thought in the late 90s. And yes Rayman 3 is a masterpiece. One of the greatest visuals in video games

They used the original iteration of the SuperFX chip, no shit they ran poorly. Yoshi's Island used the revision that ran at double the speed.

I mean the SNES is also hard-capped at like 15 fps for full-screen animation, and yoshi's island only animates part of the screen so it can do it at 60 fps.

SMW is fine, the graphics are repetitive because the half-megabyte cartridge is stuffed to the gills with level data and doesn't have room for graphics. sonic had the same size cartridge but filled it with graphics instead of levels.
