From his early days on the original 16-bit Nintendo system to his modern incarnations on the Wii, no other character has made me happier than Yoshii. I’ll never forget the first time I got to hop on Yoshii’s back and run around. I had never laughed so much in my life. My real infatuation with Yoshii started with Super Mario and the Seven Stars, Mario’s best roll playing game. You use Yoshii several times during this game, and even though the SNES is an ancient system by today’s standards, that game still holds up mostly because of Yoshii. Since then, Yoshii has made several more appearances in the Nintendo universe and is set to be in Super Mario Galaxy 2. From the trailer that just appeared at E3, it looks like Mario and the gang are set to have tons more fun with Yoshii.
What I really hope for is that Yoshii is set to have his own game for the Wii. The remote controllers for the Wii lend themselves perfectly to Yoshii’s unique movements. Although once this new game comes out, you may not need a separate Yoshii game since it looks like there will be plenty of Yoshii to play with.
