    Yoshi's latest adventure simply proves that it really doesn't matter which way you look at a mediocre game -- it's boring from every angle, and no amount of spin can prove otherwise.

    If the colors were more vibrant, the tilting felt more responsive, and some of the stages weren't such an outright pain in the saddle, this game would easily get the X-Play stamp of approval. Not this time.

    Topsy-Turvy's sensor isn't quite so advanced -- it only picks up three moves: left, right, and neutral. This gives you far less control over the onscreen action, and can be especially frustrating when you want to roll that boulder just a tad to the right so that you land on it instead of that pit of spikes after you jump.

    This is a rushed job and one of Nintedo's worst in several years. Are these games filled with broken tilt mechanisms? You decide.
