10 Laziest Super Mario Boss Fights Of All Time

10. Cloud N Candy - Yoshi's Story

It must be difficult for developers to program the first boss of a game. By the time the player has reached the end of the first level, they are still probably getting the hang of the controls. Because of this, the first boss shouldn't be too hard. Then again, a boss is supposed to pose a challenge so they can't be too easy.

Which begs the question - When is a boss that is supposed to be easy... too easy? At the end of the first World of Yoshi's Island, you must go head-to-head with the nefarious and puffy Cloud N Candy. Every time you lick the puffball, she decreases in size. She will eventually become so small, Yoshi will eat her, ending the battle in about 20 seconds.

Cloud N Candy's only form of attack is bumping into you. However, every time you take a piece out of her, you regenerate health, making the fight a cinch. Even if you couldn't heal, this bout would still be considered unchallenging. The fact that you can recover health makes this boss so simple, it's practically impossible to lose.

Also, why is a smiling cloud fighting Yoshi? Is Bowser struggling to recruit henchmen?
