SMW was a letdown after 3 but Yoshi's Island is beyond tedious.

I fucking hate yoshi Island. It triggers my autism and I find the game disgusting. Perhaps my strangest filter In All my vidya playing

Falseflagging thread?
Both SMW and YI are great games on their own.
SMW has insanely good physics with lots of different things you can do, from different ways of jumping in many different arcs, to grabbing and throwing objects in many different angles and doing crazy meta shit (shell jumping, etc).
It's the Super Mario platforming formula, maxxed, and I don't think they ever got more complex than SMW. The New series went back to being more basic. So it makes sense romhackers who makes stuff like kaizo want SMW.
YI, while being a spinoff of the Super Mario series, and being called "Super Mario World 2" in the west, plays differently from Super Mario games (for one, there's no run button), it was a new kind of game made from scratch by the Mario team, and it's also a masterpiece. As to why there aren't more romhacks for it, I don't know, there probably is at least some?

haters act like there isn't a fucking boss stage inside a frog's stomach

I fail to see why people compare SMW and Yoshi's Island. The real successor to how SMW plays is actually the Donkey Kong Country series, I'm not even kidding. Play SMW and DKC2 back to back and you'll see what I mean.

>>9785239
>yet you rarely if ever see mods for that title
Because the tools suck ass.
>but everyone is on the smw hype train
Because everyone has played that game, and the modding tools are braindead easy to use by now. Standard Mario gameplay is universally appealling.

>>9785239
>yoshi's island was much better overall
this but I'm not trolling. It's the best 16-bit platformer and in the top 10 16-bit console games of all time

>why do people pedestalize SMW so much?
>yoshi's island was much better overall
>incoming thread with Mario fans bickering about Mario games for 350 replies lasting several days
Why does anyone pedestalise Mario to begin with? There were so many better platformers.

literal baby game lmao
grow up or get a wedgie

World is more popular because it was a launch title and out for longer thus more people played it
not much to it beyond that

>>9785239
Yoshi's Island is fucking terrible. Out of all overrated games, it's the one that's straight shit. I can see the qualities and relevance of other overrated games like SM64 and OoT but YI is ass.
I will agree that the art is pretty hit and miss in World, most of the enemy redesigns suck and Mario's sprite is worse than 3's. Other than that it's a fantastic game.

>9785310 (low effort bait)
>"it's fucking terrible"

>"it's ass"
>doesn't explain why
Every time.

>>9785269
The real successor is Super Mario Land 2. But I agree that there's no comparison between SMW and Yoshi's Island. It's like taking Sonic 1 and calling it Flicky 2. They don't even belong in the same series.

>>9785258
15 posts in and no one's answered OP's question, I was posting the common complaints you brown faggot and you went straight to defense when the thread isn't even about Yoshi's Island, it's about the SMW scene. I was right and your reading comprehension is shit.

>>9785373
This thread has been made a million times. YI faggots can't be argued with. I just come in these threads to make OP mad and leave.

>>9785239
SMW is the more plain, safe game. Something I've realized is the more basic game has the broadest appeal. The more complex ones get criticized for being bloated or they just don't like the new features the game has.
OoT & MM, LA & the oracle games, Spyro 1 & Spyro 2, Sonic 2 & Sonic 3, SMW & YI.

Best monkeys in vidya, simple as.

>pedestalize
Was this bait thread just and excuse for OP to use their word of the day calendar?

>>9785239
They're very different games.
Despite being a sequel, it ditches every aspect of traditional (up to that point) Mario gameplay and does something entirely new.
It's a great game, but you can't go into it expecting more of what Mario 3 and World offered. Which is what most people expect when they see "Super Mario World 2".

>>9785270
SMW is easier to hack because it is basically an 8-bit game with extra background layers and better colors, and like half a dozen instances of mode 7 and transparency.

Yoshi's Island is way more technically advanced, you couldn't do the broken shit in it that people put in the SMW hacks.

>>9785239
Smw is good but 3 is vastly superior in pretty much every way. Yoshi's island is great but too different to compare imo.

>>9785239
Easy. SMW is the superior game while Yoshi's Island was crap, a disappointment & a crying baby Mario made the replay value go down to zero.

>>9785239
It's simple
It's the snes launch title and it knock it out the park. Despite having not amazing variety, it makes it up in level design
It's simply:
-Just great
-It's the game every has/had/knows
Even today it endures
We had Lunar Magic for years. Crazy Kaizo hacks. Crazy hacks that adds bosses from other games, etc. That really helped lengthen the legacy even longer
It truly was the perfect launch game
Yoshi's Island is amazing, but being a late release, and it being kind of expensive for forever, led to it being less popular. Also no level editors and barely any hacks at all (it's puzzling why that and Kirby Super Star doesn't). On top of that, the rest of the series kinda sucks, not helping the reputation

>>9785239
Because it's a spin off no one asked for instead of a proper 2d mario saying farewell to the snes like 3 was to the nes

>>9786319
> Kirby Super Star doesn't
that always baffled me too, wtf?
That was a great title again, no hacks, why are people so obsessed with SMW, it was a launch title, there were better titles after it.

>>9785239
I couldn't play Yoshi's Island on day 1 of the SNES's release, blockhead. And it's not strictly better than SMW anyways. SMW is a fun game with lots of levels, a shitton of secrets, fun castle levels, Yoshi riding. There's lots to like about it.

>>9785239
Do they? I always thought it was a terrible game.

>>9786792
yeah, especially that Kirby Super Star is the kind of game that you could probably just play on any custom stages at all and have fun no matter what

>>9785239
I was alive when Yoshis Island first came out. I was already obsessed with mario 3 and SMW. This game blew my mind when I rented it for the first time. A bunch of kids in my elementary school had it and even kids from other classes would discuss it with us. Being able to play the game and ignore the 100% but still beat the game was great. Then you had the option of going back and finding the secrets and using all those special items you were hoarding.

Going back to play this game as an adult, I realize how much effort was put into it and how much charm the game has. The fucking fat shy guys? They give you big eggs and are only in one level. The boss battles? Every one is unique and fun.

The only levels I disliked are the very looooooong cave (getting 100% was torture) and that special maze level in the swamp world.

For me it goes YI>SM3>>>SMW>>>SM2>>>>>>>>>>>SM1

Most sega fans are pedastilizes

smw=no bs fun
smw2=gimmicky fun
both=good fun
thread=closed

Best post.

>>9785239
What the fuck was wrong with Yoshi's Island? It's like degeneracy: the videogame
>Piranha Plant soft vore that spits you out (a first in the mario series)
>The fuzzies that send Yoshi on an actual drug trip
>The frog vore boss where it eats you and then shits you out when you defeat it
>That giant koopa boss that spits up eggs
>The objective of the very first boss is to attack it in order to remove its pants so it dies of embarrassment
You know what's the worst part? When you google image something and someone Deviantart page slips into the results with vore, the image fucking always has the same background as the frog fight. How many children's minds did it corrupt?

>>9788528
That's most of Mario's spinoffs, some degenerate at Nintendo keeps getting away with it. Ever heard of Bowser's Inside Story?<div class="xa23b"><span class="xa23t"></span><span class="xa23i"></span></div>

same I am no zoomie, I remember renting it and completing it within a weekend. Shit was pretty cash,so many interesting and unique mechanics in comparison to it's predecessors

>moon battle
>touch fuzzy get dizzy
>vehicle transformations
>creative use of eggs like skipping them on water to defeat naval piranha
>all sorts of variant enemies instead of the same seven enemies like every other mario game.
>unique takes on enemies
fat shyguys, wiggler butterflies, bandit shyguys, etc.

I don't get why everyone is shilling for SMW so much, it was alright in 1990, but there were any innovations after the fact.

>>9787312
again so much enemy, stage and gameplay variety in comparison to SMW. I just don't get it.

>>9785281
Yoshis island is technically the greatest side scroller with Mario 3 at #2. But it's unlikeable.

>>9788976
And the absolutely amazing transformation when you unlocked the final world. Oh shit now we got fucking skeleton birds dropping bombs and shit on us. That was cool.

>>9785250
Yoshi's Island is for the people who matter.
You on the other hand... lol uh, yikes sweetie

pedestal eyes pedestalize pedestal lies

>>9788528
I don't know what you're image searching so often that you're getting specific vore backgrounds, but it seems to me that you're the corrupted one.

>>9788717
Found out there was an inhale fetish because of BiS. Weirdest specific thing I've ever heard.

>>9785239
Fuck off with your 16bit Mario games. All trash.

SMW is not my favorite but it still has one of my favorite map system among retro games or even modern Mario games. I love the way the map hints and places you miiight be able to go and watching how it changes when you find a secret exit. The sense of exploration in SMW is pretty good among 2D platformers
