Synopsis

Yoshi Touch & Go, known in Japan as Catch! Touch! Yoshi! (キャッチ!タッチ!ヨッシー!, Kyatchi! Tatchi! Yosshī!), is a video game that was developed and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo DS. It debuted in Japan on January 27, 2005, in North America on March 14, 2005, in Europe on May 6, 2005, and in Australia on May 19, 2005. As of August 2007, the game sold 197,337 units in Japan. Yoshi Touch & Go was produced by Takashi Tezuka and directed by Hiroyuki Kimura. The game was released for the Wii U Virtual Console on April 9, 2015. The game revolves around Yoshi and Baby Mario/Baby Luigi. Its graphical style and the cast of characters originate from Yoshi's Island. It is based around using the DS's touch screen capabilities and the microphone to control the characters. The game is endless and its challenge comes from replaying the same modes over and over to get the best possible score, similar to the classic arcade games of the 1980s. The game received mixed or average reviews from critics, with praise for its unique premise and gameplay but criticism for its lack of a storyline with a proper ending and its simplicity coupled with low amount of content.
