The Nintendo 64's Yoshi's Story Arrives On Wii U Virtual Console Tomorrow
Yoshi's story is the tenth Nintendo 64 game to make its way to the Wii U's Virtual Console.
Released three years after the Super Nintendo's Yoshi's Island, Yoshi's Story was the game that truly separated Yoshi's Island from the Super Mario series of games. The game, which will be available tomorrow, will be the standard $9.99 Wii U Virtual Console N64 game price.
We gave the game an 8.5 when it released in 1998.

Our Take
I was never a fan of this sequel, and I am surprised to see it on the Wii U Virtual Console before games like Star Fox 64, Majora's Mask, or Mario Kart.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
