Jun 26, 2013 Red coins are a lot of fun when you're first going through the game because they they add an extra layer of challenge and slow you down just enough not to blow through all the levels in one sitting. But I find that often after you beat the game, it gets a little tedious getting all the coins, because it sort of becomes an achievement kind of thing. Character Coins, also called Baby Coins, are coins that the Yoshis can collect in Yoshi's Island DS. The Yoshi can collect a Baby Coin only with the baby on Yoshi's back that is seen on the coin. Collecting all eight Baby Coins in a world (or all seven in the case of world five) unlocks a minigame in the game's Hard Mode.

Yoshi's Island Game
I have played through this game so many times, and yet...I'm always missing one red coin in 1-7, preventing me from earning 100 points all across the board. I have scavenged every other level and managed a perfect 100, but that 1-7 just gets me every time.
Does anyone else fondly remember this game? Did you have the same trouble in Touch Fuzzy, Get Dizzy?
Incidentally, while I played this game as a child, my original copy was lost in a house fire. When I finally replaced it, the price was FORTY DOLLARS. It is, to date, the most I have paid for a Nintendo game and it was totally worth it!
