+ZeeOwlMan I feel like he needs to be in the end slate for the final episode of the project. Have Yoshi just rapid fire eggs at him and him get all sorts of happy. He FINALLY got an Egg!
Hilarious coincidence, in the intro to this video, the exact moment when John was saying "What could go..." my internet went down for a few minutes and cut him off. XD
+TheBrianJ Yeah, I really didn't think he'd pull it off. I was so happy when he made it!! Now that's a moment to put in a cheering audience, Nintendo. ;D
+TheBrianJ Sorry to burst your bubble but that's really not a great moment. A great save, yes, but that's about it. Speedrunners actually end Baby Mario early on purpose, jump on that baseballbat guy and flutter to the end to skip the Bonus.
3:00 It's Karate Duo #1! 11:38 Revenge! 16:34 Jon used Thief! It's super effective! Red Coin was stolen! Bandit became confused! Bandit fled! 21:55-22:30 The make-Goker-laugh-progressively-harder way. 23:50 Fantasy indulged!
Useful tip: When there's an item with a Chomp Rock on top of it (like the Key in Kamek's Revenge or some of the Red Coins in 6-3), you can ground-pound the Chomp Rock and get the item without having to move the Rock off it. It's quicker AND safer.
Honestly, I can't think of a section where I'd rather use a melon than eggs and tonguing. Eggs are quicker than melons, have a longer range, and can be aimed and go through certain obstacles to collect flowers and coins. And Yoshi's tongue can be used in places where you want to conserve eggs/make more eggs. On the other hand, if you have a melon in your mouth, you can't make more eggs. So if you're out of eggs, you're stuck with whatever melon you have in your mouth until you get rid of it (and the item melons have more ammo than the ones Yoshi can find normally). And the only items that really matter are the +stars items which Jon already has a lot of, so inventory space isn't important, not even for casual players like Jon.
That's not how they intended you to get that Flower in World 6-1, it's very possible to get it with a low enough angled shot. It's a somewhat tricky shot to get, but it's very doable.
+ShadyKnight9 Yeah, what you want is a rough 45 degree angle shot such that the egg bounces directly off the spikes right below the stone block sticking out of the roof. Thing is, you need to be patient enough to wait for the reticule to come back down, you start ever so slightly past the angle you need and have to cycle all the way around.
I have played through Yoshi's Island numerous times and never knew about those secret rooms in 6-3. It is amazing what you can learn from LP's about games you think you have mastered. Thanks, Jon!
Jon sounded like he was about to burst into tears of happiness when "that" part happened. I also like the irony of the boulder that screwed him also being what ultimately saved his life.
6:35: "Last episode was the 'Rage Episode.' This episode is the 'Emotionally Drained Episode.'" I'm sure that's how I feel every time I'm done with Kamik's Revenge. I love the last world but that one level puts you in a down mood. Also 22:40 - 24:00: Memorable Moment.
Jon, something you can point out next episode: in 6-4, after beating the first slime, check out baby mario's hat when leaving the room! It's the only point in the game where his hat does that for some reason.
The flower you got around 10:41, you CAN get that with a shot while simply standing to the right of it. When you first aim your egg, it's not at its lowest point. If you let the reticule move up, and then back down, it will end up at a lower point than it started at. You can get the flower that way. Also, if you Ground Pound on a Chomp Rock that is hiding something 'inside' it (like the red coin at 32:25), you'll get that item that way too.
18:20 "Alas, poor Yoshi. I knew him, Mario." Wouldn't surprise me if somebody already made that joke, but searching the comments for the same joke isn't on my to-do list.
18:00 yoshi's hitbox counts as a target too. that's why eggs can pass through clouds and such if yoshi is blocking it. look at it again in .25 speed to see. Holy... 23:55 was SICK wow nice job!
The part before 7:57 reminds me of the movie "Final Destination" where Yoshi cheated death by the first chomp falling through leaving him and Baby Mario unharmed but then the next one comes out of nowhere like exactly those freak deaths in the movie series. As for this game's difficulty, while I am sure it was designed to be easy enough for even young children to complete, I would also say that ProtonJon has played so many Kaizo-like ROM hacks that the original levels for any Mario game may seem like a cakewalk by comparison (but still challenging enough for the average casual gamer). On a side note, just wait until Mario Maker is released and the endless variations it brings ;).
10:35 That's not. If you stand on the right ledge and aim as far down as you can, the egg should reach. 32:24 & 32:44 Like with the key in Kamek's Revenge, you can ground-pound these rocks to get the coins easy.
When you screwed up the Powerful Mario segment _and won and got the last flower anyway..._ Well, I guess you earned a break after the Ski Trip From Hell last episode.
Only 2 more months! But in all seriousness, I love your LPs, I love your reactions and luck. And to be fair, even if it took a year I'd gladly wait that long for your vids. You're one of the only people who entertains me this much. Take your time, keep up the quality. You're amazing!
I tested this in the GBA version since my SNES copy is in storage, but the shot around 10:30 where you turned around and trick shot the egg to the flower was actually an abstract way. If you stand 1-2 steps behind the ledge and shoot the egg on the spikes underneath the lone stone block, it will trickshot to the flower, I THINK that's how I've always done it. but I don't recall.
This is seriously the longest LP that I have ever watched: not that there are that many episodes but this LP has almost reached one year mark XD Congrats (I guess) ;)
Woohoo! I was just thinking about this LP! Actually, I haven't played Yoshi's Island for a while. I stopped on this stage simply hers use the last one took almost all night. This LP inspired me to get this game because I never had the privilege of owning it growing up. Seriously love your content, Jon. Keep it up!
I never knew about that 1-up trick with the Bandits! And I call myself an expert on this game... Did you know you can actually give yourself a fighting chance in Popping Balloons by going after whichever balloon the Bandit's headed toward and intercepting him? I actually improvised it in my own LP, and it worked pretty well! ...I know, something I came up with actually worked. I'm just as shocked. >_>
I like how JUST as I'm checking my subscription box, I see this episode. By the way, the Flower at 10:40... you're supposed to aim as close to far down diagonally as possible from where you're standing... the way you did it though was COMPLETELY UNORTHODOX!! Doesn't mean it isn't awesome, but still... On a different note, the Death Tally is at 48 as of this episode... Counting 1 cut-out Death.
I'm pretty sure the intended solution to the flower at about 9:30 is to stand on the right edge and aim directly below the stone block there? That looks like it should get it.
I'll be honest here. It's taken until now for me to be able to tell the difference between a normal coin and the red coin while they're in the game world.
Ahh, beware the spinning logs. Welcome to the level I played the most as a kid. I freaking loved that level. And to this day I remember the order of those doors. Welp, better go play it again, Its been to long. Glad you played this game john.
23:23 Game: Well this should F him over and give his viewers something great to watch, I'm gonna go have a bagel. Jon: Hang on indulge me in my fantasy for a moment. *One moment later* Jon: Indulge me indulge me, oh my god! *Game comes back* Game: PROTON! You had one job!
"One more will kill me, let's not do that" **does it anyway** "or it will completely snap me out of it, okay cool" - ProtonJon, on the subject of drugs. Remember, winners take more drugs!
Every time Jon uploads a video, a maniacal man wearing shades recieves an egg.
+ZeeOwlMan YOU WILL GIVE ME AN EGG! BUT NONE FOR YOSHI! ....he keeps throwing them...
(⌐■_■)
+ZeeOwlMan I feel like he needs to be in the end slate for the final episode of the project. Have Yoshi just rapid fire eggs at him and him get all sorts of happy. He FINALLY got an Egg!
Man I was in 8th grade when Yoshis island was a thing at least when Jon did world 6
Hilarious coincidence, in the intro to this video, the exact moment when John was saying "What could go..." my internet went down for a few minutes and cut him off. XD
+Petronio39 He doesn't spell his name with an H.
Sorry, force of habit.
You're the one channel that I would stay subscribed to for years with no updates, just in the slim hope that one will come. Awesome video, Jon!
This. ⤴ 4 years later, still this.
This actually aged well!
23:38
GREAT MOMENTS IN LP HISTORY
+TheBrianJ The moment he defeated Naval Pirahna without properly fighting it was pretty legendary too lol!
+TheBrianJ Yeah, I really didn't think he'd pull it off. I was so happy when he made it!!
Now that's a moment to put in a cheering audience, Nintendo. ;D
+TheBrianJ Seriously footballed the end of that level.
+TheBrianJ Sorry to burst your bubble but that's really not a great moment. A great save, yes, but that's about it. Speedrunners actually end Baby Mario early on purpose, jump on that baseballbat guy and flutter to the end to skip the Bonus.
+Soma Cruz That's actually coded into the game... no way a glitch or something like that. Just an easter egg that skips the fight. Easy to do too.
3:00 It's Karate Duo #1!
11:38 Revenge!
16:34 Jon used Thief! It's super effective! Red Coin was stolen! Bandit became confused! Bandit fled!
21:55-22:30 The make-Goker-laugh-progressively-harder way.
23:50 Fantasy indulged!
Yea! Somebody else remembers Karate Duo #1.
that laughter. It's the laughter of someone who has finally lost their mind because of this game
23:56 Well, that's another laugh to go on the soundboard of funny ProtonJon noises. XD
A murder that isn't foul would be killing someone right after they finished getting a shower.
I have a dream, that one day, Protonjon WILL have a regular upload schedule.
+tao master Waka It's good to keep on dreaming!
+tao master Waka I iss castlevaia.
Don't let your dreams be dream!
+GamerFreak2341 JUST. DO IT.
+tao master Waka Woah! You are talking nonsense, dude, NONSENSE!

You could use some of the watermelon items in the place of eggs since otherwise they're just taking up space.
+edfreak9001 people underuse those. people really should be making them more useful
+edfreak9001 Eggs are much more versatile though, and you can't eat anything while you have a melon in your mouth. :(
venescas Yes but they're just taking up space, and if you CAN use watermelons for a section that means you'll have eggs for later if you need them.
Honestly, I can't think of a section where I'd rather use a melon than eggs and tonguing. Eggs are quicker than melons, have a longer range, and can be aimed and go through certain obstacles to collect flowers and coins. And Yoshi's tongue can be used in places where you want to conserve eggs/make more eggs. On the other hand, if you have a melon in your mouth, you can't make more eggs.

"BREAK THE WALL DOWN CHRIS JERICHO!"
That made my day.
"Treat him to something nice, loney guy" lol missed your LPS!
23:49 Ahh, the glorious moment of WHY DID THAT WORK!?
That's not how they intended you to get that Flower in World 6-1, it's very possible to get it with a low enough angled shot. It's a somewhat tricky shot to get, but it's very doable.
+ShadyKnight9 Yeah, what you want is a rough 45 degree angle shot such that the egg bounces directly off the spikes right below the stone block sticking out of the roof.
Thing is, you need to be patient enough to wait for the reticule to come back down, you start ever so slightly past the angle you need and have to cycle all the way around.
This. I remember doing simple shots and getting it with no major issues.
23:23 All that Kaizo paid off, didn't it Jon? ;)
If this was your Twitch stream, there would be celebratory footballs for what happened from 23:25 to 24:00
I am happy today. Proton Jon has bestowed upon the world another video.
I'm beginning to think your neighbors progressively think you're getting crazier and crazier
(23:25) That was amazing! Not only did Jon survived the spikes, he also made it to the goal while collecting the last flower.
I have played through Yoshi's Island numerous times and never knew about those secret rooms in 6-3. It is amazing what you can learn from LP's about games you think you have mastered. Thanks, Jon!
Jon sounded like he was about to burst into tears of happiness when "that" part happened.
I also like the irony of the boulder that screwed him also being what ultimately saved his life.
"See you in 5 months"
And 5 months TO THE DAY later part 17 is posted.
Holy shit Jon is a clairvoyant.
My mind is now blown.
When it comes to Bandits, watermelon seeds work just as well as eggs. Use a green S-melon in 6-2 and get shooting to end up SWIMMING in lives.
"One more will kill me, let's not do that." *immediately does it anyway*
I really enjoy the subtle Chris Jericho reference in the vid.
I'm re-watching this series, and this is still my favorite episode title of the entire LP.
I'm re-watching this series again, and this is still my favorite episode title of the entire LP, _still._
6:35: "Last episode was the 'Rage Episode.' This episode is the 'Emotionally Drained Episode.'" I'm sure that's how I feel every time I'm done with Kamik's Revenge. I love the last world but that one level puts you in a down mood.
Also 22:40 - 24:00: Memorable Moment.
AND HIS NAME IS CHOMP CENA!
+prankstered Get out
Okay, that rock/baseball moment was one of my favorite LP moments ever.
Best moment of the LP. Way to save yourself on that stage. Just wow that was amazing.
Hmmm... For some reason, I feel as though Jon *doesn't* want to play Super Mario Maker...
Jon, something you can point out next episode: in 6-4, after beating the first slime, check out baby mario's hat when leaving the room! It's the only point in the game where his hat does that for some reason.
The flower you got around 10:41, you CAN get that with a shot while simply standing to the right of it. When you first aim your egg, it's not at its lowest point.

Also, if you Ground Pound on a Chomp Rock that is hiding something 'inside' it (like the red coin at 32:25), you'll get that item that way too.
the sound of Jon's happiness is very enjoyable
Jons victory laugth at the end of the Bandit cave was just amazing xD
18:20 "Alas, poor Yoshi. I knew him, Mario."
Wouldn't surprise me if somebody already made that joke, but searching the comments for the same joke isn't on my to-do list.
These past two episodes have been a joy to watch. Thanks for making me laugh Jon!
That second level end... PURE FOOTBALL.
I would love it if one of these Yoshi episodes had a rondom back dashing Soma "HA" screen transition.
18:00 yoshi's hitbox counts as a target too. that's why eggs can pass through clouds and such if yoshi is blocking it. look at it again in .25 speed to see.
Holy... 23:55 was SICK wow nice job!
The part before 7:57 reminds me of the movie "Final Destination" where Yoshi cheated death by the first chomp falling through leaving him and Baby Mario unharmed but then the next one comes out of nowhere like exactly those freak deaths in the movie series.

10:35 That's not. If you stand on the right ledge and aim as far down as you can, the egg should reach.
32:24 & 32:44 Like with the key in Kamek's Revenge, you can ground-pound these rocks to get the coins easy.
I love how he's avoiding finishing this because he promised he'd do Superman 64 afterwards.
When you screwed up the Powerful Mario segment _and won and got the last flower anyway..._ Well, I guess you earned a break after the Ski Trip From Hell last episode.
That flutter jump over the spikes is the reason you're a top tier LPer
"Last episode was the rage episode, this is the emotionally defeated episode."
Yeah, that describes my life pretty freaking well in 2015.
Only 2 more months!
But in all seriousness, I love your LPs, I love your reactions and luck. And to be fair, even if it took a year I'd gladly wait that long for your vids. You're one of the only people who entertains me this much. Take your time, keep up the quality. You're amazing!
Good to see you back, Jon. Hope everything goes well for you.
🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈 In today's episode, ProtonJon pulls a Chuggaconroy!
27:01 - 27:03 There was a secret up there. It was the secret to having a heart attack in the middle of a game.
Mmm. I love me some emotionally defeated Proton Jon. Worth it for every reason.
I tested this in the GBA version since my SNES copy is in storage, but the shot around 10:30 where you turned around and trick shot the egg to the flower was actually an abstract way. If you stand 1-2 steps behind the ledge and shoot the egg on the spikes underneath the lone stone block, it will trickshot to the flower, I THINK that's how I've always done it. but I don't recall.
Love that you're keeping this up. Thanks man
I wish the guys at Rifftrax had mentioned "Touchy Fuzzy Get Dizzy" during the "Drugs are Like That Too" short.
THANK GOD HE IS STILL ALIVE
23:53
Jon snatching victory from the jaws of defeat.
That shit on the spikes after you lost the power star was straight up Witchcraft.
The 1st level in the episode reminds me of the minigame in MP1 where you spin the stick to push your opponents towards the spear shy guys.
"see you in 5 months" 2 months to go boyz
That ending to the second level was clutch.
I swear, the minute I finish my homework I'm watching this.
Forget the homework, it can burn.
This is your brain.
This is your brain on Fuzzies.
FUZZIES: NOT EVEN ONCE
"Hover shove it" sounds like it's meant to be a futuristic insult
23:58 That laugh of yours was priceless.
17:40 Chris Jericho is confirmed Karate Guy.
This is seriously the longest LP that I have ever watched: not that there are that many episodes but this LP has almost reached one year mark XD Congrats (I guess) ;)
"Murder most foul, as in the best it is. But this most foul, strange, and unnatural."
Thank you for uploading this c:
+Google lets you have exactly 100 characters in your name so that is exactly how many I have in this. You sir, have a FABULOUS username.
24:09 that was the epitome of awesomeness for this game.
Stop what I'm doing now to look at a new Protonjon episode.
Everyone lay down your ProtonFootballs in chat please
16:36 That red bandits animation rate is aligned with the recordings frames and so he's just ice skating away. It's pretty funny
+Caleb Filozof 18:40 s bandit is also. (typed while watching the episode, there might be more but I'm good for now)
Woohoo! I was just thinking about this LP! Actually, I haven't played Yoshi's Island for a while. I stopped on this stage simply hers use the last one took almost all night.

cannot get enough of this series XD

Did you know you can actually give yourself a fighting chance in Popping Balloons by going after whichever balloon the Bandit's headed toward and intercepting him? I actually improvised it in my own LP, and it worked pretty well!
...I know, something I came up with actually worked. I'm just as shocked. >_>

Jon's brush with death was quite sobering.
I like how JUST as I'm checking my subscription box, I see this episode. By the way, the Flower at 10:40... you're supposed to aim as close to far down diagonally as possible from where you're standing... the way you did it though was COMPLETELY UNORTHODOX!! Doesn't mean it isn't awesome, but still...
On a different note, the Death Tally is at 48 as of this episode... Counting 1 cut-out Death.
Man, I saw ProtonJon before what video and I thought Aria of Sorrow, but still happy for this!
The sound they use for the fuzzy kills me every time xD
The pure joy at the end of spike segment. Haha
23:30 The start of one of the best moments of this LP

HE'S ALIVE!!!! HE'S ALIVE AND BROUGHT ANOTHER VIDEO! AWESOME!!
The end slates are always the best apart of the episode :D
I'm pretty sure the intended solution to the flower at about 9:30 is to stand on the right edge and aim directly below the stone block there? That looks like it should get it.
"Amuse me." I have been amused!
I had a dream where the lyrics of 'when you're gone' was replaced by 'proton jon'. I missed you buddy
I'll be honest here. It's taken until now for me to be able to tell the difference between a normal coin and the red coin while they're in the game world.
Ahh, beware the spinning logs. Welcome to the level I played the most as a kid. I freaking loved that level. And to this day I remember the order of those doors. Welp, better go play it again, Its been to long. Glad you played this game john.
23:23 Game: Well this should F him over and give his viewers something great to watch, I'm gonna go have a bagel.
Jon: Hang on indulge me in my fantasy for a moment.
*One moment later*
Jon: Indulge me indulge me, oh my god!
*Game comes back*
Game: PROTON! You had one job!
Nice save there at the end of 6-2, Jon!
Don't be salty Jon, I'm thrilled you have a new video

"One more will kill me, let's not do that" **does it anyway** "or it will completely snap me out of it, okay cool" - ProtonJon, on the subject of drugs.

He's on the air again! Hooray! (Sometimes I feel like I am listening to news from the front lines when a new Proton Jon video is released.)
What a fantastic end to 6-2. I salute you
