Shaman King: Master of Spirits is an odd licensed game.

Yoshi has had it rough. Most will point to Yoshi’s Island as the pinnacle of the series. But even with excluding the puzzle games, there’s one other game I think every fan should spend at least some time with: Yoshi Touch & Go. 00:00 Yoshi ★ NES ★ Gameplay – TheMProductions 00:05 SNES Longplay [161] […]
