Is it really competitive, like can you actions affect your friends? I know you can make more enemys appear, but what else can you do if anything?
Can you get a different yoshi, or are you stuck with the green one?
Theres only one multiplayer stage correct?
Its fun right?
Couple more comments on the game as well. It seems that the game gets harder the better you get at it. At first it seems hard because of the controls, but once you get over that it becomes hard because of the multitasking. Each play of score attack gets more and more intense because I get more and more aware of how little I have to work with to score. Also I still have trouble with the dual screens, I find myself paying attention to one and something on the other will pass me by. I also HATE when Yoshi goes up to the top. Still the game is a lot of fun, but I really do wish there was a few different levels. So far I could give it a strong 8 out of 10.

The higher combo you get, the more enemies that appear on your friend's screen (must have at least 3 in the combo)...That's all you can do to affect your friend, but it really works well by itself...
Can you get a different yoshi, or are you stuck with the green one?
Just Green Yoshi...
Theres only one multiplayer stage correct?
Yep...
Its fun right?
I don't think we would have played 99 rounds in a row if it weren't... ^_^

The facts about multiplayer:
- it's single cart, and it takes about 20-30 seconds to download
-there's only one stage
-each player has a green yoshi, but the "dowloader" carries Baby Luigi and the "downloadee" carries Baby Mario. The top screen always shows your opponent.
- there are two types of enemies: little green balls of spikes, and big red balls of spikes
-the big red balls appear on your screen based on your opponent's combo. 3 enemies withone egg is the minimum for a combo, and it makes 3 enemies appear on your opponent's screen. 4 enemies = 4 spikes, and so on.
-the race is 1000 meters long, but it's often just a matter of survival
-it keeps a win loss record. Huzzah!
There's a little more to the multiplayer than that, but if I told you, you may be able to beat me

When I played my 99 rounds with my friend today, we only finished the race 3 times...

I also wanted to know what everyones high score is for marathon. I enjoy that mode the best.
My high score is 7,014 yards for marathon.
My high score is 205 points for score attack.
My high score is 2170 yards for challenge
I haven't played much of score attack or challenge mode yet, but soon will.

When Yoshi and Mario are together, constantly make Yoshi run on clouds and don't waist eggs on things like that huge swarm of green spiky things at the very beggining where Yoshi runs off of that mountain.

Score Attack: 374 points

By the way, what does the Pic next to the rankings do, if anything? I've just been putting a picture of what killed me (if I got hit) or just a random picture (if I won).

I finally cleared 400 in score attack, my new score is 411. I so proud of it, those Lakitus really help. I also got under three minutes in Time attack with a score of 2:59:6, really intense moment. With that I got the baloon popping game and achieved a score of 111, does anybody know what makes you lose in that?

Yeah, the air stage is the key in Score Attack. I got 171 in just the air stage, so when I got to the ground part I could hold 60 eggs and there were ALOT more enemies. The only drawback is that the more eggs you can hold, the faster Yoshi runs......It took me like 5 tries just to reach the end.....
Score Attack - 497 (so close to 500 ;___;)
Marathon - 6716
I don't really play the other modes.... I did break 4:00 in Time Attack, but that's not really saying a whole lot

), 4,306 in Marathon, 3:54:2 in Time Attack, and a measely 1731 in Challenge), but I just got the game yesterday evening, so give me time This game is wicked fun, I must say. I'm usually not big on High Score games, but it's such a fast-paced, ingenius, fun game I can't help but like it. It's amazing how quickly you adapt to it (at first, I couldn't hit anything on the top screen with my eggs but now I'm ace). I love it. I'm playing it so much my computer monitor seems to scroll, it's insane.
I'm using the bullet shy guy as my score picture. I think the picture instead of initials is a really cool idea.
Edit: Okay, change that 302 to 366
Edit: Okay, change that 366 to 394

I wrote a shortish review on my site
http://www.hm-fusion.co.uk/fullfeature.php?subaction=showfull&id=1113293985&archive=&ucat=24
A the end of the day I just feel a bit empty about the experience, it's too much like a glorified mini-game.
Great graphics and music tho!

They're that hard? I beat them the first couple days I had it, and it only took me that long because it's one of the first games my girlfriend has ever actually played (I bought it for her more than me (I SWEAR!))
Anyway this is I think the best game on DS right now, if you ask me, because it's just so hard to put down and go to sleep when I'm playing it.
Also the levels are not the same; they change every time you go through it, just with general similarities, even in Score Attack,
EDIT: Hey can we get a page on the main site that lets us post our high scores? Or maybe I'll make one...yeah tomorrow morning I'll make one but maybe we should say you have to include a digital picture of it...hmm...though I don't have a digi camera readily available...I just don't want cheaters! and no pro action replay

Post by: Caterkiller on August 13, 2005, 08:39:36 PM
I got home late from work a few nights ago and my brother wakes up and goes "Matt I got a white Yoshi in Yoshi touch and go." I told him he was dreaming and to go back to sleep. That next morning he turned on the game and under Marathon was a 4th place White Yoshi. I was told it goes pretty fast and has unlimited eggs but I can't seem to get it myself(but I really didn't try much). Maybe its already known at gamefaqs or something, but I sure didn't know about it. He told me that you have to kill every enemy on screen befor you pass on Mario to the next Yoshi, no matter what color you have.

Gamefaqs.com lists the requirement to get Light Blue Yoshi as "Get 0 points in time attack", but that doesn't match up with what Mario said. The reqirement to get White Yoshi is simply listed as "Performance Related".
Bronze Yoshi is gotten by 10,000 meters in Marathon mode. Also, there's apparently a Purple Yoshi to be had if you somehow manage to go 20,000 meters in Marathon mode. Good luck confirming that one.

My Marathon score is only 8759 yards... i'll have to work on that.
