Mario and Yoshi is a Gameboy puzzler released back in 1992 that is also available on the Nintendo Entertainment System and Wii Virtual Console.

I was actually beginning to LIKE it! After a few more plays through a one player game I really enjoyed the game's quirky graphics and sound track. The idea is simple - you stack up little enemies in blocks of three and they disappear. But unlike most puzzle games, it wasn't a case of simply going on forever.
