Here you go:
Yoshi's Touch-And-Go

The difference is very clear to me. Yoshi DS looks good, but it no longer looks like it was done with colored pencils like Island does. It lacks the visual richness, texture, and vibrancy of Island. Yoshi's Island is probably the most beautiful 2D game ever made.
Quote:Oh, and I'm quite happy to see drawn games on the DS. It's got N64 power so I was worrying that the fully 2d game would finally almost totally fade away... clearly there are still some coming out. Though obviously for some genres the 3d will do wonders... see: racing games...
I just hope that Intelligent Systems will make a proper 2D Metroid game for the sytem.
