Can any of you help me remember a games title from way back? I believe it was for the original NES and you were a boy with a yo-yo. You used the yo-yo to "flick" your enemies. It had a series of mazes and puzzles to solve if I remember correctly. I wanted to buy it as I rented it a few times back then but could never find it on the shelves. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Earthbound or something? Sounds like Ness in SSBM.
I think I might have found what you are looking for or I am just wayyy off.
Goonies II? here's the link if you wanna see what I'm talking about. it's the second one down.
Goonies II
i was thinking Tropical Starsign. maybe that's the name. i know it has "tropic" in it. maybe Star Tropic. it was sorta like an RPG overworld, the an isometric action based when you entered caves. your main weapon was a yo-yo as well. i'd link you to a wiki, but Wii browsing doesn't have tabs or copy/pasting
Goonies II had the playable character's default weapon as a yo-yo, although you could pick up the slingshot and the boomerang quickly enough. That, and it was all about maze-like levels. I'm not familiar with the other games mentioned.
I also think it was EartBound since the description sounds like Ness.
I think it was earthbound too.
At first I thought it was Earthbound but not so sure about all the puzzles and mazes. This game does sound very familiar though.

I think that's it!! Star Tropic. Thanks alot!!!
Yeah, it wouldn't have been Earthbound. Thats an RPG. No mazes in that game to my knowledge.
It is Star Tropics

there are the details on the game. This is also one I remember from back in the day too. Since it is a first party Nintendo game, I think it should eventually make it to the VC!
Good day all
