| It is a great game that capitalizes on the successful features of the past Yoshi's Island games, while introducing special elements of its own. 30.83% (1,208 votes) |
| This game is decent in its own right, but it does not add anything substantial to the Yoshi's Island series as a whole. 32.59% (1,277 votes) |
| The new installment is a poor attempt from Nintendo to continue the Yoshi's Island series, and it does not live up to the standard created by the other games. 12.69% (497 votes) |
