Also, "Yoshi", which involved classic mario monsters (squid, goombas, shy guys) and getting them trapped between two halves of an egg. pretty fun too.
Qix is another game i can recomend, not quite a puzzler, but still racks the brain sometimes[/quote]
I think the Yoshi game you are referring to is Yoshi's Cookie.
Others that I can recommend are Kirby's Star Stacker, the Tetris games, The original DOnkey Kong.[/quote]
No. He is right. There is a game called "Yoshi" that isn't Yoshi's Cookie. In it, baddies like Goomba and Boo dropped from the top, and Mario at the bottom had to place them together. By putting the same pieces together, they would disappear. Egg's could be turned into Yoshi's. It was an okay puzzle game, that had two player mode. I have it for the NES.[/quote]
The game you are describing, IMO, sounds exactly like Yoshi's Cookie. That is the only Yoshi puzzler that I know of for the GBC/GB/GBA. Do you maybe have a link to the other Yoshi game? I have never heard of that one.[/quote]
*sigh*
Yoshi: Mario villains fall from the top of the screen. Your goal is to get the villains into Yoshi eggs. Bottm shell, villians, top shell, and poof. No more baddies. If I'm not mistaken, they also vanish by getting enough of the same kind in a stack. Mario is at the bottom of the screen and can switch columns of pieces.
Yoshi's Cookie: You start with a square or rectangle of cookies. Your playing piece is a cursor, which you can use to shift the rows or columns of cookies. To get pieces to vanish, you need to have an entire row of the same piece - five by five? You'll need five of the piece in a row, then. More pieces fall from the top and the right side of the screen. You can earn Yoshi Cookies, which are essentially wild card pieces.
I KNOW this is right - I have them both for the NES. Don't make me pull out my beating stick...
Back on topic: Assuming you don't get a glitchy copy, Super Puzzle Fighter is amazing. Pokémon Puzzle League is a completely different kind of puzzle game, but it's easier to find and it should definitely be cheaper. I'd also suggest good old Tetris, as it's still one of the best out there.
