Yeah, but the Emperor was much more prepared for Yoda than he was for Mace. Also, I believe that there was some sort of discrepancy with Samuel L. Jackson being adamant about having a cool death that made his character look powerful - and I think Lucas appeased him to get him to star as Windu. So, I think business might have affected George Lucas's vision in the book and the movie...

Let's think about this. Mace was about to ice the Emporer before Anakin stepped in. Yoda, however, was toasted by lightning & was tossed around the senate chambers like a toy.
Wrong..
The Emperor tried to run away from Yoda as soon as he saw him, he tried to keep Yoda away from him and he succeeded, sort of. Until Yoda threw his attacks right back at him.
Yoda was owning him and the emperor was scared, his most powerful attacks failed, it did destroy Yoda his lightsaber how ever. Throw the two in another arena and then let them try again and Yoda will win.
Just like he would beat Mace. Yoda is seen by everybody as the wisest and most powerful Jedi ever, probably for a reason

OK, I'm really sick and tired of hearing this Sidious>Yoda thing. Not true guys. Yoda clearly gave palps a big time run for his money. Sidious had to lead the fight into the Senate Chambers so he could keep a little distance from the little green guy. Why? cuz when it came down to lightsabers, Yoda was clearly better. Yoda is not any weaker than Sidious. He could counter everything Sidious threw at him.
Indeed Sidious was constantly trying to get Yoda away from him, did you even see how scared he was when Yoda landed on the pod next to him...
Did you see Palp his face when Yoda was blocking his attack? He was scared incredibly scared, he knew Yoda was more powerful... He was lucky to hang on. He laughed because Yoda his lightsaber was destroyed, he was incredibly happy because of it. Troopers would walk in at any moment aand Sidious knew that, that would be Yoda his end.
