Who else misses old school Yoshi?

[Anonymous No.4658454]

And why does Nintendo make everything bland eventually. (NSMB, etc)

[Anonymous No.4658478]

I really don't see the difference, OP. I guess that Yoshi looks a bit cartoonier, but that's to be expected since it's a comic.

Absolutely. I was obsessed with the character when I was a kid. He was a cute little dinosaur friend with a super chill look in his eyes every time you saw him. Yoshi's Island was fantastic too.

Then came Yoshi's Story.

Now Yoshi's nose was a perfect 3D sphere on his face, his saddle became a weird tiny turtle shell thing, his dorsal spines along the back of his neck became three little round bumps on the back of his head, his cute little dinosaur arms became massive human hands with oposable thumbs, And now he basically has no tail.

And then the fucking voice... I'll never understand why Yoshi had to become a fucking pokemon.

Modern Yoshi sucks balls. I miss my dino bro. What sucks is when they create new 2D artwork of Yoshi it almost looks half way decent, even if it does still have some of modern Yoshi's garbage design choices, but in 3D, he looks horrible.

Nintendo went bad when they gave Mario a voice. The entire Mario aesthetic since then has been 100% bland. Nothing scary, weird, or strange, just sanitized, squeaky-clean, on-model, shiny 3D characters (except for allowed side trips like Paper Mario or retro throwbacks).

Also: it’s a hat.

Basically, bland things don't offend anyone and appeal to the largest group of people. So theoretically your sales should go up.

Sadly, it works. Look at the WWE and the democratic party. Both now totally bereft of personality or what made them what they are. Both kid friendly to a psychotic extreme. Both more popular than ever in spite of this.

Idk. I'm a nintendo hatin, republican votin, beer swillin white man. So i don't have much to say on any of it, lol.

Nah both of those things are uncool as shit right now. Kids think the Democrats are lame cause they wanna be edgy. These movements get the most annoying right before they die just like evangelism did in the 90s

To be fair, the Yoshies on Yoshi's Story are supposed to be babies, not adult Yoshi.
But for some reason they stuck with that design forever.
I miss old chill Yoshi with his "pew-puh" sound effect.

Not anymore apparently.

But they already had a design for Baby Yoshi. Baby Yoshi was this stoned looking mother fucker.

It's cool that they brought them back for NSMB games, but the damage is already done, and I half suspect that Nintendo's going to treat "Baby Yoshi" as it's own species.

How are you supposed to play tennis with no thumbs, idiot?

Even if you ignore the fact that they're cartoons and the way they grasp doesn't have to make sense there's ways around that.

[Anonymous No.4659740]

Say what you want but the Yoshi's Story design is the absolute best. Fuck longneck fags.

See I don't really mind Yoshi having thumbs, what bothers me are when they give him gigantic monkey hands as opposed to the tiny dinosaur arms.

Also his artwork always did a good job at potraying him as a chill and kinda dopey dinosaur that loved to eat. New Yoshi is boring and his art just says "Hey I'm a Mario Character, please don't forget to buy another Yoshi amiibo"

Apparantly it was always meant to be a Shell, since Yoshi was originally going to be a type of friendly Koopa.

That's dumb though. It looks like a saddle.

Because you're faggot who didn't catch up with what Nintendo has been doing lately. Seriously, fuck off with the "bland" overused buzzword and go back to /v/.

What a bland post.

[Anonymous No.4660593]

I do. He was a cool dinosaur friend.

Now he's a weird faggot, always turning his back to the player and I feel the urge to punch him.
And the voice... his fucking voice...
Fuck Totaka.
