It actually is by many people in retrospect. It never got the love it deserved when it first came out because it was released during the death of Super Nintendo and the birth of N64. If I remember right. But you'd be far from alone in calling it the best platformer when plenty of people consider it their favorite game of all time.

Lucem, you're right, it's silly to talk about what I would or wouldn't do IRL. Glad you brought it up. Maybe you should write an instrumental about it. I recommend a piano paired with a clarinet. With ambient sounds of you hanging from your shower curtain you ****ing failure.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.

Yoshi's Island is definitely one of my favorite games of all time.

TBH old school games aren't "better" (if they are) because they're better, they're better because they have less ways to **** up. More memory, more graphics, more potential also means you have exponentially more ways to completely ruin a mechanic that might have been satisfactorily explored in a more low tech game that didn't have the option of adding more things to "flesh it out".

Bruh I have USB SNES controllers now and it's all I do now. $10 and now I have an SNES with every single SNES game ever made. I'm now highly considering buying either a SEGA or an N64 USB controller. N64 cause obvious reasons and SEGA because the six buttons will open up MAME arcade emulation in all its glory.
