Finished up Yoshi's Island. Fantastic game and shows off how far ahead Nintendo was back then. My biggest complaint is that near the end there were way too many autoscrollers and maze levels. (mastodo.neoliber.al)

Overall not as good as Super Mario World (the GOAT), but I'd put it in the same tier as Super Mario Wonder. If you have any interest in platformers it's definitely worth playing even if you're not into #RetroGaming

YI is a really great game as long as you don't go for 100%. There are some truly heinous optional levels.

If you're into the romhacking scene at all, I highly recommend Flutter. It's equal parts difficult and fun

@[email protected] thanks for the recommendation! I haven't gotten into any sort of romhacks for the SNES but I really need to. So many games, so little time
