Several games on the Classic NES Edition mini-console had their own flashing effects removed (most jarringly the finale of The Legend of Zelda, which has a sort of washed-out lighting effect now instead of rapidly strobing through multiple colors), and we've seen old Nintendo games lose their screen flashes in other reissues as well. This change appears consistent with the company's ongoing efforts to remove any sort of high-contrast flashing effects from their older games. So, did Nintendo screw up? Did they foul the emulation through sheer incompetence? I'm guess the answer is no. On Super NES, the game flashes a quick single-frame burst of white light with a mosiac Mode 7 effect. Now, you instead see a blank background with a thin Mode 7 overlay for a split-second before the distortion begins. While the screen distortion is recreated in fine fashion, the effect you see at the moment of contact with a Fuzzy has changed. The effect does demonstrate one difference here from the original game. It's one of the game's most memorable moments, a wild effect that shouldn't seem possible on Super NES hardware, and I was eager to see it in action on the Super NES Classic Edition.Īs it turns out, the mini-console handles the effect pretty well:Īll's not perfect, though.

The entire level begins to warp and distort, and the buckling ground makes Yoshi wobble back and forth and causes platforming to become incredibly difficult. Making contact with a Fuzzy causes Yoshi to, as the saying goes, start trippin' balls. As the stage title says, touch Fuzzy, get dizzy. In Stage 1-7, Yoshi encounters tiny floating puffballs whose touch inflicts a hallucinogenic effect. However, the Super NES Yoshi's Island does appear on the Super NES Classic Edition, and one of my first questions when I sat down to play the system was: "How well does Yoshi's Island's wildest visual effect play out?" and which presumably were too demanding for Virtual Console as well. But in point of fact, the GBA version of Yoshi's Island offers a pretty good clue as to the original's ongoing absence: The Super NES game featured some crazy hardware-powered special effects that the GBA simply couldn't pull off. True, they remade the game for Game Boy Advance and have distributed that version pretty liberally.

It's been the one classic Mario game Nintendo has never put onto Virtual Console. Mission control for retronauts former EIC of 1UP.com and taking dapper (and frogs) back from the Nazis.Īs we mentioned on this week's podcast, Yoshi's Island has been missing in action for the past two decades.
