About this product

Product Information

Yoshi's Story is a side-scrolling platform game that involves controlling one of six young Yoshis as they explore their home island in two play modes: Story and Trial. In addition to the unusual visual style, designed to replicate a picture book, what sets this game apart from similar platform titles is the lack of a specific "end" to reach on a level. Yoshi's Story spans six "pages," with each page representing one of four possible courses. While the game offers a total of 24 levels spread across six worlds, a game only consists of one page per world. To see all the levels, you'll have to keep playing new games while trying to improve your score. <br><br>Yoshi's task within each page is to find 30 pieces of fruit. It doesn't matter where he finds them or in what order -- once he gobbles up the last piece of fruit, he's ready to turn the page. To obtain these pieces of fruit, Yoshi can walk, run, swim, push items, jump, stomp on enemies, and pound the ground. The "pound the ground" technique allows you to reveal hidden fruit to add to your score or "happiness" level. As in previous games, Yoshi can still use his tongue to grab any fruit or enemy character he comes into contact with, but this time color is important: each Yoshi has a certain color preference that keeps him happy and increases your score. <br><br>Swallowing an enemy turns the rival into an egg ready to be thrown anywhere on the screen. Eggs can be launched to reveal hidden platforms, items, or secrets. Yoshi can also sniff the ground (like a bloodhound) to uncover tasty snacks. The game automatically keeps track of your name, high score, and progress for each Yoshi, so you have something to shoot for if you decide to play again. You can collect 30 melons on each page to reveal a secret, or find the three Special Hearts in each course to open up more pages. Cleared courses in Story Mode can then be played in Trial Mode, where the goal is to achieve the highest score possible.

    Great game and cartridge

    This cartridge needed a bit of adjustments to get it to work, but after a cleaning it worked just fine. Thank you for selling one of my favorite, overly cute games :) In good condition, no issues past that. Speedy shipment!!

    Ok well here's what happened.

    Got the game in a yellow envelope as opposed to a box The air pads in the envelope popped (duh it's a damn envelope) which resulted in a cartridge clip breaking. Not a big deal as the game still worked and a drop of super glue fixed the issue. But the whole thing could of been avoided if it would have been shipped correctly in a packed box. Great game though 👌

    An N64 Classic

    While it does not win any awards for gameplay, I have found it to be more than entertaining as a very casual game. Though, be warned- when my game arrived it was set to Japanese. Thankfully, after a rather confused five minutes or so, I discovered that there is an option in the settings menu to switch it to English.

    Love the game

    I miss playing the game, and it worked perfectly. I just wished the shipping didn't take so long, because I was most excited to receive this one, but it arrived 3 or 4 days after the rest (Yoshi was ordered the day before). It DID however arrive when stated, so it does not change my stars on the review. Thank you for the game! :)
