Goonie: Difference between revisions

'''Goonies''' are white birds which most prominently appear in the [[Yoshi's Island (series)|''Yoshi's Island'' series]]. They are likely based on the {{wp|snowy albatross}}, which is also called a "goonie" or "gooney bird", although they have been described as "{{wp|Gull|seagulls}}".<ref>{{cite|quote=I think those are seagulls back there.

In ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', Goonies (also known as '''Bomber Birds'''<ref>{{cite|quote='''BOMBER BIRDS''' Flocks of these birds fly through several of the Pages of ''Yoshi's Story'', offering free rides or headaches to the unobservant.

Gray Goonies also appear in Stage 5-4: [[Shy Guy's Ship]]. They cannot hurt the Yoshis directly in this game and constantly make an "Aa-ho!" noise, based on their Japanese name.

Goonies (here called '''Little Birdies'''<ref>{{cite|author=Stratton, Bryan, and Steve Stratton|date=2001|title=''Mario Kart: Super Circuit'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Official Game Guide|page=37}}</ref>) make a cameo appearance in [[GBA Cheep-Cheep Island|Cheep-Cheep Island]] in ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]''. Like [[small bird]]s in later titles, they simply fly away temporarily if the player drives into one.

Goonies reappear in ''[[Yoshi's Crafted World]]'' as rare enemies alongside their flightless counterparts. Their appearance and behavior are mostly unchanged from previous games. Goonies first appear in the course [[Windward Way]]. Their main use in this game is to transport Yoshi from pit to pit.  

 

Goonie and Flightless Goonie crafts can also be found in the courses [[Pirate Pier]], [[Windward Way]], [[Bombs Away on Pirate Island]] and [[Open, Shut!]] respectively. There is also a constellation of a Goonie on the front side of [[Ride the Stars]].
