When the new Game Boy Advance was announced, Nintendo shown a Yoshi’s Story tech demo, to promote the power of the console. The demo looked almost as nice as the N64′s Version, but sadly it was never developed into an full game. After some years, a rom of the Yoshi’s Story GBA tech demo was leaked thanks to one guy from Youtube (josdog6): the ROM has no sound or music, it will start with a 3D “yoshi’s island” spinning on the screen, while the gameplay is basically an endless level, just to show the graphics (of course). You have eggs, but you can’t shoot them, if you hold start, an egg will appears in the left of the screen. Select button will remove your health bar. When yoshi dies, you’ll see the same animation from the N64 version, with yoshi deported into the castle.

That wouldn’t have been a bad game. I’d like to have tried that, but the last time I played Yoshi’s Story(on the N64) I found it far too childish.

Yoshi Story Was a good game. Though I agree with you , ObviouslyNot since I played Yoshi Story last time I felt like I was playing a kids game. The GBA version is ok. Sadly there is only one Yoshi and he looks sad in one of his animations.
