Yoshis Island next?

At first I thought it was 'of its time', in that whilst clearly decent looking for the era, it was still a tad clunky and if anything, hampered in retrospect by the 2D plane/3D visuals thing. However, on closer inspection it has plenty of neat ideas and the controls are quite tight. It's not Earthworm Jim in terms of variety thus far, but it's early days and the whip bash/whip swing mechanics work well. The puzzles (I think it's fair to call them that) add variety too, and the Tallarico soundtrack is quite banging as it goes. It shits on Pandemonium for sure, and plays like a mish mash of that, the Bruce Willis Apocalypse thing (hardly a corker, yet underrated) and [insert something whippy swingy I can't think of off the top of my head]. Would've been all over this if it were a Saturn game circa '97, but by late '98 I was too eager to ignore things while I waited for a Dreamcast. My only real complaint, other than the oversized levels that go with the territory, is that the rig/whip is a bit random as it flicks out, which makes me wonder if I should be playing this with the analogue setting on.
