Looks like a nice game, but it's actually a bit too easy and short.
User Rating: 6 | Yoshi Topsy-Turvy GBA
Yoshi Topsy Turvy, at first, looks like a pretty good game. There's a new piece of technology put into it that lets you tilt the game system and activate certain platforms and walk on most walls, nothing that I've never seen before on a Game Boy system of any sort, whether it be for the oldest Game Boy system, such as the classic, black-and-white-screened Game Boy, for example, or the most recently added, like the doulble-screened, full-colored Nintendo DS. There is a good number of missions in the game, but you are able to get through them quickly and easily, which is one of the game's big flaws that factors majorly into the overall game playing experience. The game's main character is, as the title suggests, Yoshi from the Mario Brothers series. He gets stuck inside of a pop-up book along with the classical Mario enemy, Bowser. Yoshi's main mission is to go through each of the four different chapters in the book by convincing the spirit there to let him through, and to do that, he needs to collect a certain amount of medals. With enough playing, one should be able to get to Bowser in just about no time flat. From there, actually beating Bowser might look like the most challenging level in the game, but after learning the best strategy of getting through the level, you should be able to beat him in about 5 minutes at the most, depending on your skill level. Overall, I'd say that this is a pretty good game for younger kids who are just beginning to become one of today's society's serious gamers, and should be left alone by the older, more experienced gamers out there for the most part.
