Yoshi (NES) 30th Anniversary Retro Review feat. Barry Carenza

Published: May 31, 2022, 5:05 a.m.

Can you believe it's been THIRTY YEARS since Yoshi's first self-titled video game?

Sure: his appearance in Yoshi on the NES isn't his most iconic entry in gaming... in fact, it's not even as iconic as his relatively minor role in Super Mario World two years earlier... but this is the first and only game simply titled Yoshi.

We're joined this week by a gaming historian named Barry Carenza who shares his experiences growing up with now-retro games, and working with Premium Edition Games to help breath a more retro aesthetic into the realm of modern indie games.

Happy Anniversary Yoshi!
