Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (frequently referred to simply as Yoshi's Island) is a 2D platform game for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, developed by Nintendo EAD. The game is the prequel to Super Mario World, and it stars Yoshi and the Yoshi clan who, while carrying baby Mario, travel across Yoshi's Island to rescue baby Luigi from baby Bowser and his Magikoopa minion/caretaker, Kamek. Instead of relying on jumping and a power-up system for combat as in the traditional Super Mario platformers, Yoshis use their tongue and eggs to overcome obstacles, as well as the introduction of many other different mechanics. The game is notable for introducing a time-based health system rather than hit points, an anomaly to what many platform games typically did in this game's time period. Rather than relying on powerful pre-rendered graphics just like its contemporary Donkey Kong Country, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island employs a very distinct, stylized arts and crafts style to stand on its own. The game makes use of the Super FX2 graphics chip (one of only four commercially released SNES games to do so), which allows for larger, more detailed sprites and more advanced effects that emulate 3D space.

Although Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island was not as financially successful as its predecessor, the game's highly positive reception and unique style have spawned a new series of platform games from the Yoshi franchise, although it is the fourth entry overall. The game has received various adaptations into manga, such as receiving volumes dedicated to it in the Super Mario-kun and Kodansha's Super Mario manga series and extensive merchandising. This is the only Yoshi's Island game to be released on a home console. The game has received a remake on the Game Boy Advance, Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3, which was released on Virtual Console for the Nintendo 3DS (with owners applicable for the Nintendo 3DS Ambassador Program being able to download the game for free) and Wii U. The original SNES version of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island is included on the SNES Classic Edition, and although it was never announced for release on Virtual Console on any other system, it is one of the 20 launch titles for Super Nintendo Entertainment System - Nintendo Switch Online on the Nintendo Switch. A sequel, Yoshi's Island DS, was released in 2006 for the Nintendo DS. In 2014, the Nintendo 3DS game Yoshi's New Island continues the story told from the first game.

Story

Artwork of Yoshi and Baby Mario in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (Reused for Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3)

Yoshi carrying baby Mario.

Kamek, one of the main antagonists, as well as the kidnapper of baby Luigi

From the first cinematic of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island:

Narrator: A long, long time ago... This is a story about baby Mario and Yoshi. A stork hurries across the dusky, pre-dawn sky. In his bill, he supports a pair of twins. Suddenly, a shadow appears in a gap between the clouds and races towards the stork with blinding speed.
Kamek: "SCRREEEECH!!!"
Kamek: "THE BABIES ARE MINE!"
Narrator: WOW!!! Snatching only one baby, the creature vanishes into the darkness from whence it came. The second baby falls undetected towards the open sea... OH NO...
Meanwhile, here is Yoshi's Island, home to all Yoshies. It's a lovely day, and Yoshi is taking a walk. HUH?!? Suddenly, a baby drops in onto his back. The baby seems to be fine. This is very fortunate! Wha-? Something else fell with the baby... Let's take a peek... It looks like a map. Maybe the stork was using it? But Yoshi can't figure it out. Yoshi decides to talk to his friends.
Kamek: AAAAAAAAAAKK!!!
Narrator: Kamek, the evil Magikoopa, and kidnapper of the baby, quickly dispatches his toadies, when he discovers that he missed the other baby!
Yoshi heads leisurely back to the other Yoshies, unaware of the danger at hand. Kamek's forces are actively searching the island. Will these two children ever reach their parents safely?

From the second cinematic of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island:

Narrator: This paradise is Yoshi's Island, where all the Yoshies live. They are all in an uproar over the baby that fell from the sky. Wait! The baby seems to know where he wants to go... The bond between the twins informs each of them where the other one is. The Yoshies decide to carry the baby to his destination via a relay system. Now begins a new adventure for the Yoshies and baby Mario.

From the instruction booklet:

This story happened a long time ago...this is a story about a baby and Yoshi...
A stork hurries across the dusky, pre-dawn sky. In his bill, he supports a pair of twins, who are to be delivered to their parents as soon as possible.
Suddenly, something appears between the clouds and races towards the stork with blinding speed!
"SSCCRREEEEECH!!!", it screams. "These babies are mine!"
Snatching only one baby, the creature vanishes into the darkness from whence it came.
Oh no! The second baby falls undetected towards the open sea...
The kidnapper is Kamek, an evil Magikoopa from the Koopa Kingdom. Having divined last night that twin babies born this morning will bring disaster to the Koopa family, he arranged for an early morning ambush. Returning to his castle, Kamek realizes that he missed the other baby. He orders his toadies.
"Go forth and find that other baby! Don't let his parents get him back! Ever!!"
Meanwhile, the second baby does not fall into the sea after all...it lands safely on Yoshi's back! And right after him drops a map!!
This paradise is Yoshi's Island. And on this island lives lots of different Yoshies. These Yoshies are naturally laid back and relaxed, but this a calamity and everyone is in a state of panic. As the Yoshies frantically yell over each other, the baby insistently points at something.
Yes! The baby can sense the other baby's location. All the Yoshies quickly agree to help carry the baby to its destination by using a relay system not unlike the old pony express.
The Green Yoshi draws first honors.

The story of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island takes place while Mario and Luigi are in their infancy, referred to as baby Mario and baby Luigi respectively. A stork was about to deliver the newborn twins baby Mario and baby Luigi to their parents, but is ambushed by Kamek on the way there. While Kamek was successful at capturing baby Luigi and the stork and imprisons them at Bowser's Castle, baby Mario plummets into the sea, only to find himself on a Yoshi's back on an island. The Yoshis then discover that baby Mario also has a map with him, which reveals the location of Bowser's Castle. Kamek has then figured out that he has missed baby Mario and then has dispatched his Toadies to kidnap baby Mario. While the Yoshis discuss what to do with baby Mario, baby Mario then notifies the Yoshis which direction to go due to a powerful twin link, where the Yoshis then employ a relay system to transport baby Mario across the island. After overcoming obstacles and fighting bosses that Kamek has enlarged in various forts and castles in the island, the Yoshis finally manage to defeat Kamek and baby Bowser and rescue baby Luigi and the stork, allowing the stork to safely deliver the babies to their parents.

Gameplay

Yoshi aiming his egg at one of the enemies.

Like the early titles of the Super Mario series, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island is a two-dimensional, side-scrolling platform game. In addition to the typical run and jump controls, the Yoshis can also catch enemies and manipulate objects using their tongue. After catching an enemy, the Yoshi can either spit out or swallow them, although if Yoshi keeps an enemy in his mouth long enough, he eventually swallows it (with the exception of enemies he can only hold and spit out and not swallow). Swallowing most enemies allows the Yoshi to lay a Yoshi Egg, which it can carry up to six of; eating another enemy results in the egg at the front of the line to be discarded. While Yoshi has some eggs, the player can aim with a constantly moving target reticle and throw them to damage enemies, activate objects, ricochet them off solid surfaces, and skim them across water. This reticle can be locked into one position while aiming, and while Yoshis are aiming their eggs, they can still move around and jump. While most eggs come in green, some are yellow and red, and they release coins and stars when shattered respectively. While a Yoshi throws an egg, the egg changes color depending on how much it has bounced off walls. Green eggs can bounce up to three times, yellow eggs bounce only twice, and red eggs bounce only once. Power-ups also exist in the form of metamorphosis bubbles, which allow Yoshi to transform into various forms, and the Super Star, which lets baby Mario turn into Powerful Mario. In addition to these moves, Yoshis can use Hovering Jumps multiple times in the air to increase the distance they travel. The first Hovering Jumps can increase the height of the jump, but subsequent Hovering Jumps mostly serve to prolong the duration of the fall. Yoshis can Pound The Ground to smash stakes and defeat certain types of enemies. Camera controls include looking up to see upper areas of the level and ducking to force the camera down.

Yoshi about to free baby Mario from his bubble imprisonment.

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island introduces the concept of time-based health, a mechanic that is reused in future Yoshi's Island games. When the Yoshi comes into contact with an enemy, baby Mario becomes separated from Yoshi, encased in a bubble and floating around in the air. While baby Mario is in this state, a Countdown Timer appears, counting down in seconds until it reaches zero, in which time Yoshi must recover baby Mario or Kamek's Toadies take baby Mario, and the player loses a life. The Timer starts at ten seconds at the beginning of each level, and can be increased to a maximum of thirty by collecting Stars, using 10 Point Stars and 20 Point Stars, and entering Middle Rings. If the Timer falls below ten, it increases back up to ten slowly after recovering baby Mario. Entering a Middle Ring also marks the point where the Yoshi can continue from if it loses a life. Other ways Yoshis can lose lives are if they touch spikes or thorns, if they fall off a cliff, if they touch lava, if they get eaten by a Lunge Fish, or if they get crushed by moving platforms. In these cases, Yoshi's death is shown onscreen, either by spinning and collapsing or flying offscreen. If the player runs out of lives, they receive a Game Over.

There are six worlds in this game, and each world has nine levels total. The objective of each level is to reach the Goal Ring roulette. There are ten spots on the roulette, and five of the spots can be made winning spots by collecting the five Special Flowers in each level. Landing on one of the flower points allows the player to play a Bonus Challenge. These Bonus Challenge allow Yoshis to either gain lives or Special Items for use in levels. Two levels in each world are forts and castles, and the goal in those levels is to reach and defeat the eponymous boss that resides in those establishments rather than reach a Goal Ring. Most bosses are regular enemies that are enlarged by Kamek prior to the fight, with a few exceptions.

Scattered throughout each level are three types of collectibles: thirty Stars, twenty red coins, and five Special Flowers. At the end of each level, the player's score is tallied with a maximum of 100 points, with flowers worth ten points each and red coins and Stars one point each. Attaining a perfect one hundred points in all eight levels in a world unlocks a Bonus Challenge and an "extra" ("special" in Japanese) level on the level selection map. The extra levels are designed to be more difficult than any other level in the game, and each one has its own unique gimmick. However, the player can always choose to exit an extra level by pausing the game and pressing ; in other levels, this can be done only if the level in question has already been cleared.

If the player succeeds in attaining a perfect one hundred points in the extra level of a world, a Star is added to the top of the title screen the next time the player turns on the game, for a maximum of six Stars.

Controls

The option mode for the control settings.

There are two controller configurations: Patient and Hasty. By default, Patient is selected. The control setup can be swapped at any time on the world map by scrolling over to the button with the Super Nintendo controller next to the "Score" option and selecting it; additionally, at some points, there are Message Blocks that allow the player to swap control configurations. The only difference between the "Hasty" and "Patient" settings is that with "Patient" the player must press to target and press it again to throw an egg, while with "Hasty" the player must hold to target and release it to toss an egg.

Yoshi's Island

The setting of the game takes place on Yoshi's Island, which is the first world setting of Super Mario World. The island portrayed in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, however, is much larger in scale and comes with a larger variety of biomes and characters endemic to the island as players progress through the game. The game contains six worlds with eight regular levels each, retaining the eight level per world structure first normalized by Super Mario Bros. 3, having a consistent amount of levels per world, and every fourth and eighth level of the world features a boss fight against an enemy enlarged by Kamek. All worlds have particular themed biomes, such as World 1 having a grasslands while World 6 has a stronger theme around caverns and lava as the player closer approaches King Bowser's Castle; this theming of levels has been carried in further entries of the Yoshi's Island series. Unlike Super Mario World, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island does not employ use of a world map and relies on a level select screen, which is represented by color-coded folders containing icons that preview the levels, and these levels are named after their features than rather than using generic numbered identifies, such as the third level of World 3 being called Nep-Enut's Domain rather simply being called World 3-3. One notable aspect of the level icons is that all Yoshis in their previews are Green Yoshis, despite Green Yoshis being used only in the first levels of each world, the Extra levels and King Bowser's Castle. While most levels have players moving on their own accord, a few levels are autoscrollers, with the first one being encountered in Hop! Hop! Donut Lifts in World 1.

Every world contains an unlockable level known as an Extra levels, which are unlocked when players get a 100 score in all levels of the worlds. These levels feature a gimmick and are shorter and more difficult than other levels of the game, often do not contain Middle Rings and they are optional to complete in regards of general progression of the game. These levels do not feature unique icons that display a preview of the level and are instead represented by a star with a number and identifier. In addition, when players first play the game, they play through a level called Welcome To Yoshi's Island, which serves as a short tutorial guiding players basic controls of the game. Once completed, it cannot be replayed, effectively making it an unrevisitable area.

Due to the light arts and crafts aesthetic of the game and usage of the Super FX2 graphics chip, levels and their backdrops are rendered reminiscent of drawings rather than the more organic approach that Super Mario World has done, and their backdrops are dynamically rendered with a more complex palette. For example, the primary backdrop for Watch Out Below! from World 1 uses a soft palette and hills having an emulated colored pencils aesthetic, clouds and hills contain visible shading streaks to communicate their shadows, environment features such as waterfalls and crystals in cave levels such as The Cave Of Chomp Rock and The Cave Of The Mystery Maze are animated, Goonie Rides! renders a shimmering ocean with a large flock of the Goonie species and variants flying in the background, while the general aesthetic of World 6 primarily uses warm color palettes to communicate players that the world is lava-themed and the final world of the game.

Characters

Playable characters

The Yoshi species are the primary playable characters of the game and this appearance is their first starring appearance in a platformer title. All Yoshis play identically to each other, and Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island introduces even more color variations to the Yoshi species: in addition to the Green, Red, Blue and Yellow Yoshis that are present in Super Mario World, Pink, Light Blue, Purple, and Brown Yoshis are introduced. While Pink, Light Blue, and Purple Yoshis become mainstay colors in future installments of the overall Super Mario franchise, Brown Yoshis remain exclusive to this title, being replaced by Orange Yoshis. The Yoshis in this game retain their long tongues and their abilities to eat most objects from Super Mario World, though the game introduces Hovering Jumps, turning enemies and objects into eggs that can be used as projectiles, and pounding the ground.

The Yoshi colors are specific to the levels they are played on.

Name	Playable levels	First level	Last level
Green Yoshi	The Green Yoshi is playable in the most levels of all Yoshis, with a total of eighteen, as it is always playable in the tutorial level, the first level of each world, extra levels, Mini Battles, and King Bowser's Castle.	Welcome To Yoshi's Island	Castles - Masterpiece Set
Pink Yoshi	The Pink Yoshi is always playable in the second level of each world.^a	Watch Out Below!	The Cave Of The Bandits
Light Blue Yoshi	The Light Blue Yoshi is always playable in the third level of each world.	The Cave Of Chomp Rock	Beware The Spinning Logs
Yellow Yoshi	The Yellow Yoshi is always playable in forts, the fourth level of each world, and always fight against bosses here.	Burt The Bashful's Fort	Tap-Tap The Red Nose's Fort
Purple Yoshi	The Purple Yoshi is always playable in the fifth level of each world.	Hop! Hop! Donut Lifts	The Very Loooooong Cave
Brown Yoshi	The Brown Yoshi is always playable in the sixth level of each world.	Shy-Guys On Stilts	The Deep, Underground Maze
Red Yoshi	The Red Yoshi is always playable in the seventh level of each world.^a	Touch Fuzzy, Get Dizzy	KEEP MOVING!!!!

^a - The Yoshis' positions on the map screen are swapped, with the Pink Yoshi at the seventh level and the Red Yoshi at the second. This was corrected in the Game Boy Advance version.

Supporting characters

While Yoshi games prior feature adult Mario in a starring role while Yoshi accrues a more passive role, such as Yoshi, Yoshi's Cookie, and Yoshi's Safari, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and further entries in the Yoshi's Island series flips the roles in which the Yoshis are the primary, controllable stars while Mario, as baby Mario, rides on Yoshis and acts as their timed health meter should they get hurt by enemies or objects. Baby Mario is directly controllable only under the effects of the Super Star as Superstar Mario where he dons a yellow cape and becomes invincible. Luigi makes his debut in the overall Yoshi franchise as baby Luigi, though his role mirrors Princess Peach of the Super Mario franchise in that he is kidnapped and the overall goal of the game is to rescue him from Kamek and baby Bowser's clutches.

Two supporting characters are introduced in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and make recurring appearances throughout the Yoshi franchise. The stork, designed after the white stork representing an animal of folklore known to deliver babies to parents, gets ambushed and kidnapped alongside baby Luigi at the start of the game. The latter character Poochy is a dog-like creature that follows Yoshi around and Yoshi can ride on who can run on dangerous terrain such as lava and spikes.

	Baby Mario	Mario as an infant. The Yoshis have to transport him and take care of him throughout the game. Players can control him when he obtains a Super Star.
	Baby Luigi	Luigi as an infant. He is kidnapped by Kamek and, similar to Princess Peach of the Mario series, he needs to be rescued.
	Stork	The bird that delivers baby Mario and baby Luigi to their parents. The stork is captured alongside baby Luigi.

Bosses

Yoshi finishing off Raphael the Raven on the moon in the level Raphael The Raven's Castle.

Yoshi fighting the boss of World 5, Raphael the Raven.

Each world features a midway fort (the fourth level) and an end-world castle (the eighth level) with a mid-boss and a big boss respectively. Every boss is just an enlarged version of a basic enemy that Kamek super-sizes with his magic. The only exception is Froggy, who remains at his normal size while Yoshi and baby Mario are shrunk; he then eats them and the battle is located in his stomach.

Mid-bosses

Image	Name	Description
	Burt the Bashful	Burt the Bashful is the mid-boss of World 1, fought at the end of Burt The Bashful's Fort. He is an enlarged Burt that Yellow Yoshi must defeat by throwing eggs at him. Burt attacks Yellow Yoshi by bouncing around. Whenever Burt is hurt, his pants lower; he is defeated when his pants are gone entirely. It takes six hits to defeat him.
	Bigger Boo	Bigger Boo is the mid-boss of World 2, fought at the end of Bigger Boo's Fort. He is an enlarged Big Boo that chases around Yellow Yoshi when Yellow Yoshi is turned away. When Yellow Yoshi looks at Bigger Boo, he turns invisible and therefore, cannot be hit. To defeat Bigger Boo, Yellow Yoshi must ricochet eggs off walls so that it hits him while he is following Yellow Yoshi as Yellow Yoshi looks away. Every time Bigger Boo is hit, he grows larger; hitting him five times defeats him.
	Froggy	Froggy is the mid-boss of World 3, fought at the end of Prince Froggy's Fort. He is a normal Frog Pirate that eats Yellow Yoshi when he is shrunk by Kamek. The battle takes place in Froggy's stomach, where Yellow Yoshi needs to hit the uvula at the top of the stomach with eggs. The main hazards in this battle are the gastric acid and the Shy-Guys (appearing big to Yoshi) Froggy eats.
	Marching Milde	Marching Milde is the mid-boss of World 4, fought at the end of Marching Milde's Fort. She is a large Milde who attacks by walking left and right, where she hurts Yellow Yoshi from the sides. To attack her, Yellow Yoshi needs to Pound The Ground below her from above, which causes her to split to two extra large Puchipuchi L. Yellow Yoshi needs to Pound The Ground on them again to turn them into common sized Puchipuchi L, and then again to turn them into regular Mildes. Once all Mildes are defeated, the boss battle is won.
	Sluggy the Unshaven	Sluggy the Unshaven is the mid-boss of World 5, fought at the end of Sluggy The Unshaven's Fort. He is an enlarged Sluggy whose weak point is a heart that Yellow Yoshi needs to attack in order to damage him. To reach his heart, Yellow Yoshi needs to throw eggs at his gelatinous skin, which exposes the heart with every hit. Sluggy does not damage Yellow Yoshi, but he can push Yellow Yoshi over a pit if he advances far enough.
	Tap-Tap the Red Nose	Tap-Tap the Red Nose is the mid-boss of World 6, fought at the end of Tap-Tap The Red Nose's Fort. He is an invincible boss that attacks Yellow Yoshi by jumping onto the Yoshi. To defeat the boss, Yellow Yoshi needs to destroy the blocks on the floor to create a gap that leads to the lava and then push Tap-Tap the Red Nose into the lava by throwing eggs at him.

Big bosses

	Salvo the Slime	Salvo the Slime is the big boss of World 1, fought at the end of Salvo The Slime's Castle. He is an enlarged Slime where Blue Yoshi must defeat him by throwing eggs at him.

	Roger the Potted Ghost	Roger the Potted Ghost is the big boss of World 2, fought at the end of The Potted Ghost's Castle. He is a large ghost growing from a pot that is a stationary target.

Roger can also lunge and shoot fire at Blue Yoshi.
	Naval Piranha	Naval Piranha is the big boss of World 3, fought at the end of Naval Piranha's Castle. It is an enlarged Wild Piranha that attacks Blue Yoshi with Nipper Spores and its two buds. Its weakness is the bandaged bump where Blue Yoshi can throw eggs at. Blue Yoshi can also defeat Naval Piranha in one hit before it even enlarges by throwing an egg at it before Blue Yoshi approaches the area.
	Hookbill the Koopa	Hookbill the Koopa is the big boss of World 4, fought at the end of Hookbill The Koopa's Castle. He is an enlarged Koopa Troopa who attacks by lunging towards Blue Yoshi. Blue Yoshi needs to toss several eggs at Hookbill's head or arms to topple him over, where Blue Yoshi needs to Pound The Ground on his belly to damage him. After Hookbill has been damaged, he retreats into his shell and pounds the ground repeatedly. Once this attack is finished, he resumes his normal attack pattern.
	Raphael the Raven	Raphael the Raven is the big boss of World 5, fought at the end of Raphael The Raven's Castle. He is an enlarged Raven where the battle takes place on the moon. Blue Yoshi needs to pound on stakes on the opposite side as Raphael in order to damage him. Raphael attacks by chasing Blue Yoshi, as well as Pounding The Ground to create shockwaves that circle the moon. Every time Raphael is hit, he obtains a faster attack pattern; three hits defeats him.
	Baby Bowser	Baby Bowser is the big boss of World 6, fought at the end of King Bowser's Castle. He is one of the antagonists of the game and has two phases. The first phase involves baby Bowser in his normal form, where he tries to Pound The Ground on the Green Yoshi to ride on him. Green Yoshi can attack baby Bowser by Pounding The Ground, using the shockwaves as an attack.
	Big Baby Bowser	In the World 6 castle King Bowser's Castle, when Green Yoshi delivers three hits to Baby Bowser, Kamek enlarges baby Bowser, starting the second phase of the fight. In order to attack Big Baby Bowser, who approaches from the background, Green Yoshi needs to obtain Giant Eggs from Baron von Zeppelins that occasionally fly in. Big Baby Bowser attacks by sending flying rocks, breathing fireballs at Green Yoshi, and charging into Green Yoshi. He is defeated when Green Yoshi hits him seven times. If Big Baby Bowser gets too close, he destroys the platform Green Yoshi is standing on, defeating Green Yoshi.

Transformations

Metamorphosis bubble

Entering a metamorphosis bubble causes Yoshi to be transformed into one of several different types of vehicles, each with their own unique capabilities. While in this state, Yoshi is allowed to move around as the vehicle without baby Mario for a limited time before being pulled back to the metamorphosis bubble and being turned back to normal. If the player is able to hit a Yoshi Block while transformed, the transformation is automatically reversed at that location.

Image	Name	Description
	Helicopter	Allows a Yoshi to fly around for a brief time.
	Mole Tank	Allows a Yoshi to tunnel through sections of dirt.
	Submarine	Allows a Yoshi to move around underwater and fire torpedoes.

Other transformations

Image	Name	Description
	Powerful Mario	Collecting a Super Star causes baby Mario to be temporarily transformed into Powerful Mario. While in this state, baby Mario can run around without needing to ride Yoshi, completely invincible. Powerful Mario is also capable of running on walls, ceilings, and spikes, and can glide with his cape.
	Ski Yoshi	Attained upon entering a house in certain snow levels, this causes a Yoshi to don ski equipment to traverse across hills and ramps. The Yoshi stays in this form until the level is completed or he fails. If a Ski Yoshi hits an obstacle or fails the ramp jump, the Yoshi rolls over and becomes a snowball. While in this form, the Yoshi is invincible, but the player cannot control the Yoshi and cannot jump.

A Yoshi can also eat these and spit them out to another area. If a Yoshi falls off to an area where the Yoshi cannot reach the spinning wheel, it respawns in the location it started at. There are two main types of spinning wheels: the blue spinning wheels disappear if a Yoshi jumps off one and does not ride it again for a while, while the tan ones stay there until Yoshi leaves the room or goes at a far enough distance away from the tan spinning wheel.

Soundtrack

Main article: Super Mario: Yossy Island Original Sound Version

A soundtrack CD was released in Japan on November 25, 1995, titled Super Mario: Yossy Island Original Sound Version. The disc contains 26 music cues from the game's soundtrack, as composed by Koji Kondo.

The instrumentation for this game's music was sampled from the Akai S1000 synthesizer; E-mu Systems' Proteus synthesizers; the Korg 01/W; Optical Media International's Universe of Sounds Vol. 2; Roland's L-CD1 synthesizer, Sound Canvas SC-88 module, and R-8 drum machine; and the Yamaha TG77 and TG100. The Roland Sound Canvas, in particular, would go on to become one of the longest-used sources of instrumentation in Super Mario franchise music, with samples from both the SC-88 and the later SC-8850 model being used in numerous games during the next four gaming generations. Some of the game's sound effects are samples of stock sound effects: the jungle ambience heard on the title screen and baby Mario's cry are taken from Sound Ideas' General Series 6000 library, while Yoshi's tongue sound and the noises made by Piranha Plants come from Rarefaction's A Poke in the Ear with a Sharp Stick.^[14]

Promotion

Culver City event

Flyer promoting the Culver City event.

An event was held in front of a Toys "R" Us in Culver City, California on October 5, 1995 at 3:00 PM to promote the North American release of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. At the event, there was a trailer and a large model Yoshi Egg surrounded by hay. The trailer held a banner with the words "Play It Loud" and stock art of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. The Yoshi Egg held a banner with the word "Nintendo". The event centered around "hatching" the Yoshi Egg. After the hosts interacted with the idle audience, children were lined up and given small, green hammers which they used to break open a designated area at the bottom of the egg. The Yoshi Egg, when breached, yielded stringed paper and a large model of the game cartridge. Group photos were then taken of children with the cartridge.

The organizers of the event also pledged to donate five hundred dollars to local schools on the condition that the principals of these schools sit on top of the Yoshi Egg for fifteen minutes. A person in a one-piece Mario and Yoshi costume also was seated on top of the Yoshi Egg. Participants could go on and off the egg by means of a forklift.

A raffle was then held with one winner receiving an SNES which included a copy of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. Other winners may have won t-shirts. Discount coupons were also distributed.

Material

Front and back of Nintendo Power's "Super Power Club" cards.

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island was the cover feature of Volume 77 of Nintendo Power. Nintendo Power also distributed eight promotional cards of some of the game's bosses part of their collectible Super Power Club series of cards which began in October 1992 with Volume 44 of Nintendo Power. The front of each card has an in-game image of the character and the reverse had a brief description of the character. The cards include:

Raphael the Raven
Roger the Potted Ghost (titled "The Potted Ghost")
Bigger Boo
Burt the Bashful (erroneously titled "Bashful Burt")
Hookbill the Koopa
Sluggy the Unshaven
Tap-Tap the Red Nose (titled "Tap Tap the Red Nose")
Naval Piranha

Videos

The A Magical Tour of Yoshi's Island VHS.

Nintendo of America distributed Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island: A Magical Tour of Yoshi's Island, a six minute-long promotional VHS. The video featured Ken Lobb and the same person who narrated the Donkey Kong Country: Exposed promotional VHS.

Another promotional video, titled The Invasion of Nintendo, was included with a copy of Nintendo Power and featured Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island alongside some other Nintendo games. Ken Lobb made another appearance.

There exists another untitled promotional video that was likely shown on monitors in video game stores. It is about fifty seconds long and consists of clips of the game along with some narration.^[15]

Adaptations

The adaptation of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island is covered in volumes 14 and 15 of Super Mario-kun. It begins with the original "Koopa Empire" arc from volume 13, in which Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi are transported to a future where Bowser triumphed. After stopping his reign, Bowser decides to go back in time and prevent Mario from ever being born. The three follow him with a time machine and, after rescuing Baby Mario from Kamek's clutches, not trusting the hungry Yoshis, they take Baby Mario with them and goes to rescue Baby Luigi, all the while Bowser and Kamek are trying to stop them. In this version, Baby Bowser is absent: Bowser from the future takes his role after a POW Block shrinks him to a baby size during the last chapters.

In the Kodansha Super Mario manga series, a three-volume miniseries titled Super Mario: Yoshi Island was also released. The first two volumes are based on the stories from the game, while the end of the second volume and the third have an original follow-up story arc about Yoshi and the Baby Mario Brothers founding the Yossyi Helper Team to stop Baby Bowser's mischievous plans.

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island was also adapted as part of the 4koma Gag Battle series, also titled "Super Mario: Yossy Island".

An issue from the Game Picture Book series of the Super Mario Ehon series, Super Mario Game Picture Book 4: Hang in There, Yoshi (「スーパーマリオゲームえほん 4 がんばれヨッシー」, Super Mario Game Ehon 4 Ganbare Yoshi), is loosely based off the story of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.

Staff

Main article: List of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island staff

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island was directed by video game designers Takashi Tezuka, Shigefumi Hino, and Hideki Konno and programmer Toshihiko Nakago; the four had worked on previous titles in the Super Mario series, with all except Hino being directors for Super Mario World. Konno had earlier worked as a map and level designer in the previous Super Mario games and served as map director for Super Mario World. This is the first Super Mario-related project to involve Yasuhisa Yamamura, who has most notably worked on the dungeon design in the The Legend of Zelda series. The C.G. design the game employs is credited to Yoshiaki Koizumi, who previously worked on Super Mario Kart as the illustrator. The soundtrack was composed by Koji Kondo, well known for creating the Super Mario franchise's iconic tunes. Shigeru Miyamoto had heavy involvement with the game's development and served as the game's producer, while Nintendo's then-president, Hiroshi Yamauchi, was the executive producer.

Development

In an interview with game journalist Steven Kent, Shigeru Miyamoto stated that he wanted to make a game starring Yoshi as far back as Super Mario World's development.^[16] Miyamoto disliked previous Yoshi games (specifically mentioning Yoshi's Cookie, Yoshi's Egg, and Yoshi's Safari, the latter being mistranslated as "Yoshi's World Hunters" in the interview) and wanted to make one more authentic to the Yoshi character.^[16]

An early version of the game was demoed to Nintendo's marketing department, who rejected it due to the visuals "lacking punch" in comparison to Donkey Kong Country's pre-rendered 3D graphics.^[16] In response, Shigeru Miyamoto developed a more stylized and "cartoony" art direction for the game, which was accepted. Some of the pre-rendered sprites used in the opening of the game are leftovers from the original graphical pitch.

According to Hisashi Nogami, the hand-drawn style was created by literally drawing the characters by hand on paper, scanning them and then carefully copying them to make the sprites "a pixel at a time".^[17]

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island was one of three completed games to use the Super FX2 graphics chip, which allowed for larger sprites and more advanced effects such as sprite scaling and rotation (advertised as "Morphmation" technology), basic polygonal rendering, and advanced parallax scrolling.

Reception

Critical reception

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island was critically acclaimed upon release, with most reviews praising the level design, the platforming mechanics, the personality, the graphics, the soundtrack, and the creativity of the game. The game remains critically lauded, garnering a 96.00% on GameRankings based on 5 reviews.^[18] The most common criticisms surrounding the game come from baby Mario's crying when he is trapped in a bubble after Yoshi takes a hit from the enemy, often being cited as "annoying". IGN retrospectively said in its article "Is There a Bad Mario Game?", "The game earned instant acclaim and rightfully so for its brilliant stage design and platforming mechanics. Yoshi's Island doesn't beat you over the head with trial and error to teach you how to play, but it also does not hold your hand with a numbingly dull tutorial."^[19] Kaes Delgrego of Nintendo Life has referred to the game as "Perhaps the greatest platformer of all time" in his review, giving the game a score of a 10/10.^[20] Delgrego called the time-based health mechanic "innovative" for its time and described it as influention on later titles, comparing it to Halo's time-based life mechanic. While he admitted that the game itself isn't revolutionary, Delgrego praised the creativity of its puzzles and pastel-style graphics. Delgrego's only criticisms focused on the easy boss fights and baby Mario's crying when Yoshi takes damage from an enemy. Reece Warrender of Cubed3 gave the game a 9/10,^[21] praising the game's new and interesting mechanics, such as swallowing an enemy to create a projectile of it, as well as having simple and enjoyable mechanics that players of any age can enjoy. Warrender praised the quality of the game's graphics and sound while criticizing the easy difficulty and the short length, citing that the game can be completed in five hours despite the replay value of the points system.

Retrospective reviewers often rank Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island as one of the greatest video games in the medium's history. Among others, the game was placed 18th in the 100th issue of Nintendo Power's "100 best Nintendo games of all time" in 1997. It also placed 185th in the 200th Issue of Game Informer's "Top 200 Games of All Times", the lowest ranked Super Mario franchise game. Tony Mott listed the game in the 2013 revision of his reference book 1001 Video Games You Must Play Before You Die, making it one of 26 SNES games to be featured, while IGN included Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island in the 2003, 2005, 2007, 2015, 2018, 2019, and 2021 lists of the top 100 video games of all time.

Reviews
Release	Reviewer, Publication	Score	Comment
SNES	Kaes Delgrego, Nintendo Life	10/10	"Yoshi's Island isn't just a great platformer: it's a reminder of why this silly little hobby of ours is so wonderful. Sure, the game contains no political satire, no poetic justice, no character development. But if what Miyamoto and Tezuka crafted isn't a work of art, then the definition of "art" needs to be amended."
SNES	NEXT Generation Issue #14 February 1996	5/5	"You'll find yourself baffled at the task of completing this gargantuan game, but you'll definitely enjoy trying."
SNES	Reece Warrender, Cubed3	9/10	"Super Mario World was possibly the most popular game to be released on the SNES console. Following a large change of direction in the sequel you will find yourself controlling different Yoshi's in an attempted to protect a baby Mario. The game sounds unappealing, but after giving the game a fair chance you will experience a platformer like no other."
SNES	Rob Hamilton, Honest Gamers	10/10	"Yoshi's Island may not be perfect, but it provides pure gaming bliss, taking the tried-and-true Super Mario Brothers style of play and adding its own personalized touch. Just stay away from those Fuzzies. The withdrawal is pure agony!"

Sales

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island has sold over 4 million copies, with the Edge publication stating that the game was "a radical sequel to Super Mario World whose anarchic gameworld and illustration-style visuals win it loyal fans but less dramatic total sales".^[22]

Pre-release and unused content

Main article: List of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island pre-release and unused content

Animated graphics of the unused metamorphosis bubble transformations.

According to Shigeru Miyamoto, the marketing department at Nintendo wanted him to use pre-rendered 3D sprites like in Donkey Kong Country for the game, rather than stylized 2D sprites. Additionally, found in the game's data are several sprites that go unused, such as several Super Mario All-Stars sprites and three unused Yoshi forms. There are also three unused Mini Battles that can be seen in the game's code.

The game was originally intended to feature the prefix Super Mario Bros. 5, which was shortened to Super Mario in the final Japanese release. A similar concept would be carried over to the international edition, which uses the prefix Super Mario World 2; the original Super Mario World was previously subtitled Super Mario Bros. 4 on the Japanese release.^[23] It has sometimes been nicknamed Super Mario Bros. 5: Yoshi's Island (or Super Mario Bros. 5 for short).^[24]

Glitches

Main article: List of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island glitches

Constantly full mouth

By jumping through a Middle Ring and spitting out an enemy at the same time, Yoshi constantly appears to have a full mouth, despite still being able to stick his tongue out and not being able to spit anything out.^[25]

Giant Egg anywhere

By going into any level with a Fat Guy and carrying a Giant Egg to the end of a level, the player must go to the edge of the screen past the exit and throw the egg up, then use Yoshi's tongue to push it slightly into the edge of the screen. By finishing the level like this, the next Yoshi will collect the egg as it appears to take baby Mario, allowing the player to take a Giant Egg into any level in the game.^[25]

Version differences

TCRF article: Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island/Version Differences

Later versions of the Japanese release pluralize the collectables in the score screen and alter the number of dots that connect each term to its respective counter. The line in the Red Coin counter is increased by one dot, while the line in the total score counter is decreased to account for the pluralization of "Total Point."

Regional differences

This is the first first-party Super Mario game with French and German localizations. (Some third-party games, such as the PC and SNES versions of Mario is Missing!, were localized in French and German earlier.) Accordingly, the PAL release gives the player the option to select a language at the start of the game.
The title screen in the Japanese version of the game is rendered in katakana. International versions replace this with a new logo written in English.
The European release omits the ® symbol from the Super Mario World 2 prefix on the title logo.
In the map selection screen, the thumbnail tiles for the extra levels in the Japanese versions of the game are a red and orange background. They are also called "Special" stages.
In the Japanese release, the thumbnails for extra and bonus stages consist of stylized katakana logos; the extra stages all read スペシャル ("Special") and are suffixed by the world number, while the bonus stages each list the name of their respective bonus game. In international releases, the extra stage thumbnails depict a numbered star with "EXTRA" written below, while the bonus stage thumbnails depict a numbered Special Flower with "BONUS" written below.
The score thumbnail in international versions of the game has a completely different sprite than Japanese versions of the game, depicting a pencil drawing a line rather than a pencil writing "100" on an index card. The SNES controller in the North American version of the game also has its buttons changed to purple, though the control options menu retains the multicolor buttons seen on the Super Famicom and European SNES.
The thumbnail for the Popping Balloons Mini Battle is slightly tweaked in international versions of the game, rounding the balloon down at the edges of the thumbnail and increasing the size of Yoshi's hands.
The thumbnail for World 4-6: Lake Shore Paradise has a slightly altered Flopsy Fish in international versions of the game, featuring larger and more angular pectoral fins.
In the European version, as well as US Revision 1.1, the font is much thicker than in the Japanese version, though graphics such as controller buttons were left the same. This thicker font was later used in all versions of Yoshi's Island : Super Mario Advance 3.

v1.0

v1.1

International versions of the game remove onomatopoeia words from the chalkboard tutorial graphics and the Popping Balloons Mini Battle. Additionally, the symbol that appears when popping the correct balloon in the latter is changed from the kanji 当 ("win") surrounded by stars to a star pattern made of stars.
In World 6-★: Castles - Masterpiece Set, the pathed-moving platforms in the Japanese version of the game spelled out "YOSSY", Yoshi's alternate romanized Japanese name. International versions change this to "YOSHI".

-'''''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''''' (sometimes referred to simply as '''''Yoshi's Island''''') is a 2D [[Genre#Platform|platform]] game for the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]], developed by [[Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development|Nintendo EAD]]. The game is the prequel to ''[[Super Mario World]]'' and it stars [[Yoshi]] and the [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi clan]] who, while carrying [[baby Mario]], travel across [[Yoshi's Island (location)|Yoshi's Island]] to rescue [[baby Luigi]] from [[baby Bowser]] and his [[Magikoopa]] minion/caretaker, [[Kamek]]. Instead of relying on jumping and a power-up system for combat as in the traditional ''Super Mario'' platformers, Yoshis use their tongue and eggs to overcome obstacles, as well as the introduction of many other different mechanics. The game is notable for introducing a time-based health system rather than hit points, an anomaly to what many platform games typically did in this game's time period. Rather than relying on powerful pre-rendered graphics just like its contemporary ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' employs a very distinct, stylized arts and crafts style to stand on its own. The game makes use of the Super FX2 graphics chip (one of only four commercially-released SNES games to do so), which allows for larger, more detailed sprites and more advanced effects that emulate 3D space.

+Although ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' was not as financially successful as its predecessor, the game's highly positive reception and unique style have spawned [[Yoshi's Island (series)|a new series]] of platform games from the ''[[Yoshi (franchise)|Yoshi]]'' franchise, although it is the fourth entry overall. The game has received various adaptations into manga, such as receiving volumes dedicated to it in the ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' and [[Super Mario (Kodansha manga)|Kodansha's ''Super Mario'' manga series]] and extensive [[List of merchandise|merchandising]]. This is the only ''Yoshi's Island'' game to be released on a home console. The game has received a [[Reissue#Remakes|remake]] on the [[Game Boy Advance]], ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]'', which was released on [[Virtual Console#Nintendo 3DS|Virtual Console]] for the [[Nintendo 3DS]] (with owners applicable for the [[Virtual Console#Nintendo 3DS Ambassador Program|Nintendo 3DS Ambassador Program]] being able to download the game for free) and [[Wii U]]. The original SNES version of ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' is included on the [[Classics#Super NES Classic Edition|SNES Classic Edition]], and although it was never announced for release on Virtual Console on any other system, it is one of the 20 launch titles for [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System - Nintendo Switch Online]] on the [[Nintendo Switch]].

 [[File:Yisland3.png|thumb|left|Yoshi aiming his egg at one of the enemies.]]
-Like the early titles of the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'' series]], ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' is a two-dimensional, side-scrolling platform game. In addition to the typical run and [[jump]] controls, the Yoshis can also ingest enemies and manipulate objects using their tongue. After ingesting an enemy, the Yoshi can either eject or swallow them, although if Yoshi keeps an enemy in his mouth long enough, he will eventually swallow it (with the exception of enemies he can only ingest and spit out, and not fully swallow). Swallowing most enemies allows the Yoshi to lay a [[Yoshi's Egg|Yoshi Egg]], which it can carry up to six of; eating another enemy results in the egg at the front of the line to be discarded. While Yoshi has some eggs, the player can aim with a constantly moving target reticle and throw them to damage enemies, activate objects, ricochet them off solid surfaces, and skim them across water. This reticle can be locked into one position while aiming, and while Yoshis are aiming their eggs, they can still move around and jump. While most eggs come in green, some are yellow and red, and they release coins and stars when shattered respectively. While a Yoshi throws an egg, the egg changes color depending on how much it has bounced off walls. Green eggs can bounce up to three times, yellow eggs bounce only twice, and red eggs bounce only once. Power-ups also exist in the form of [[morph bubble|metamorphosis bubble]]s, which allow Yoshi to transform into various forms, and the [[Super Star]], which lets baby Mario turn into [[Superstar Mario|Powerful Mario]]. In addition to these moves, Yoshis can use [[Flutter Jump|Hovering Jump]]s multiple times in the air to increase the distance they travel. The first Hovering Jumps can increase the height of the jump, but subsequent Hovering Jumps mostly serve to prolong the duration of the fall. Yoshis can [[Ground Pound|Pound The Ground]] to smash stakes and defeat certain types of enemies. Camera controls include looking up to see upper areas of the level and ducking to force the camera down.

-''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' introduces the concept of time-based health, a mechanic that is reused in future ''Yoshi's Island'' games. When the Yoshi comes into contact with an enemy, baby Mario becomes separated from Yoshi, encased in a bubble and floating around in the air. While baby Mario is in this state, a [[Countdown Timer]] appears, counting down in seconds until it reaches zero, in which time Yoshi must recover baby Mario or Kamek's [[Toady|Toadies]] take baby Mario, and the player loses a life. The Timer starts at ten seconds at the beginning of each level, and can be increased to a maximum of thirty by collecting [[Star (Yoshi's Island series)|Star]]s, using [[10-Point Star|10 Point Star]]s and [[20-Point Star|20 Point Star]]s, and entering [[Checkpoint Ring|Middle Ring]]s. If the Timer falls below ten, it increases back up to ten slowly after recovering baby Mario. Entering a Middle Ring also marks the point where the Yoshi can continue from if it loses a life. Other ways Yoshis can lose lives are if they touch spikes or thorns, if they fall off a cliff, if they touch lava, if they get eaten by a Lunge Fish, or if they get crushed by moving platforms. In these cases, Yoshi's death is shown onscreen, either by spinning and collapsing or flying offscreen. If the player runs out of lives, they receive a [[Game Over]].

 There are six worlds in this game, and each world has nine levels total. The objective of each level is to reach the [[Goal Ring]] roulette. There are ten spots on the roulette, and five of the spots can be made winning spots by collecting the five [[Smiley Flower|Special Flower]]s in each level. Landing on one of the flower points allows the player to play a [[Bonus Challenge]]. These Bonus Challenge allow Yoshis to either gain lives or [[Special Item (Yoshi's Island series)|Special Item]]s for use in levels. Two levels in each world are forts and castles, and the goal in those levels is to reach and defeat the eponymous boss that resides in those establishments rather than reach a Goal Ring. Most bosses are regular enemies that are enlarged by Kamek prior to the fight, with a few exceptions.

 The setting of the game takes place on [[Yoshi's Island (location)|Yoshi's Island]], which is the first world setting of ''Super Mario World''. The island portrayed in ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'', however, is much larger in scale and comes with a larger variety of biomes and characters endemic to the island as players progress through the game. The game contains six worlds with eight regular levels each, retaining the eight level per world structure first normalized by ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', having a consistent amount of levels per world, and every fourth and eighth level of the world features a boss fight against an enemy enlarged by Kamek. All worlds have particular themed biomes, such as [[World 1 (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|World 1]] having a grasslands while [[World 6 (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|World 6]] has a stronger theme around caverns and lava as the player closer approaches [[King Bowser's Castle]]; this theming of levels has been carried in further entries of the ''Yoshi's Island'' series. Unlike ''Super Mario World'', ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' does not employ use of a world map and relies on a level select screen, which is represented by color-coded folders containing icons that preview the levels, and these levels are named after their features than rather than using generic numbered identifies, such as the third level of World 3 being called [[Nep-Enut's Domain]] rather simply being called World 3-3. One notable aspect of the level icons is that all Yoshis in their previews are Green Yoshis, despite Green Yoshis being used only in the first levels of each world, the Extra levels and King Bowser's Castle. While most levels have players moving on their own accord, a few levels are autoscrollers, with the first one being encountered in [[Hop! Hop! Donut Lifts]] in World 1.

 Due to the light arts and crafts aesthetic of the game and usage of the Super FX2 graphics chip, levels and their backdrops are rendered reminiscent of drawings rather than the more organic approach that ''Super Mario World'' has done, and their backdrops are dynamically rendered with a more complex palette. For example, the primary backdrop for [[Watch Out Below!]] from World 1 uses a soft palette and hills having an emulated colored pencils aesthetic, clouds and hills contain visible shading streaks to communicate their shadows, environment features such as waterfalls and crystals in cave levels such as [[The Cave Of Chomp Rock]] and [[The Cave Of The Mystery Maze]] are animated, [[Goonie Rides!]] renders a shimmering ocean with a large flock of the [[Goonie]] species and variants flying in the background, while the general aesthetic of World 6 primarily uses warm color palettes to communicate players that the world is lava-themed and the final world of the game.

 The Yoshi species are the primary playable characters of the game and this appearance is their first starring appearance in a platformer title. All Yoshis play identically to each other, and ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' introduces even more color variations to the Yoshi species: in addition to the Green, Red, Blue and Yellow Yoshis that are present in ''Super Mario World'', Pink, Light Blue, Purple, and Brown Yoshis are introduced. While Pink, Light Blue, and Purple Yoshis become mainstay colors in future installments of the overall ''Super Mario'' franchise, Brown Yoshis remain exclusive to this title, being replaced by Orange Yoshis. The Yoshis in this game retain their long tongues and their abilities to eat most objects from ''Super Mario World'', though the game introduces [[Flutter Jump|Hovering Jump]]s, turning enemies and objects into eggs that can be used as projectiles, and [[Ground Pound|pounding the ground]].
-The Yoshi colors are specific to the levels they are played on. Green Yoshis see the most usage, as they are used in the first levels of every world, extra levels, Mini Battles, and King Bowser's Castle, while the rest of the worlds feature levels in a set order of colored Yoshis; Pink Yoshis are always used in the second levels while Yellow Yoshis always fight against bosses in forts. Blue Yoshis are the least used Yoshis in the game as they are not used in the last castle, with a Green Yoshi taking the role instead.

 ===Supporting characters===
@@ Line 361: / Line 570: @@
 Two supporting characters are introduced in ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' and make recurring appearances throughout the ''Yoshi'' franchise. The [[stork]], designed after the {{wp|white stork}} representing an animal of folklore known to deliver babies to parents, gets ambushed and kidnapped alongside baby Luigi at the start of the game. The latter character [[Poochy]] is a dog-like creature that follows Yoshi around and Yoshi can ride on who can run on dangerous terrain such as lava and spikes.
-Five more species of helpful, generic characters assist Yoshis should they meet them and are typically exclusive to this game. They are all harmless characters and help Yoshis either navigate through the course or provide Yoshis with ammunition such as [[Melon Bug]]s and [[Huffin Puffin]]s.

The only exception is [[Froggy]], who remains at his normal size while Yoshi and baby Mario are shrunk; he then eats them and the battle is located in his stomach.

 ===Metamorphosis bubble===
 Entering a [[morph bubble|metamorphosis bubble]] causes Yoshi to be transformed into one of several different types of vehicles, each with their own unique capabilities. While in this state, Yoshi is allowed to move around as the vehicle without baby Mario for a limited time before being pulled back to the metamorphosis bubble and being turned back to normal. If the player is able to hit a [[Yoshi Block]] while transformed, the transformation is automatically reversed at that location.

 ==Adaptations==
-Volume 14 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' mostly focuses on the events of ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'', with the arc concluding in volume 15. The ''Super Mario-kun'' version of the story features Mario and Luigi traveling back in time to stop adult Bowser and Kamek alongside Yoshi and baby Mario.
+The adaptation of ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' is covered in [[Super Mario-kun Volume 14|volumes 14]] and [[Super Mario-kun Volume 15|15]] of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]''. It begins with the original "Koopa Empire" arc from [[Super Mario-kun Volume 13|volume 13]], in which Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi are transported to a future where Bowser triumphed. After stopping his reign, Bowser decides to go back in time and prevent Mario from ever being born. The three follow him with a time machine and, after rescuing Baby Mario from Kamek's clutches, not trusting the hungry Yoshis, they take Baby Mario with them and goes to rescue Baby Luigi, all the while Bowser and Kamek are trying to stop them. In this version, Baby Bowser is absent: Bowser from the future takes his role after a [[POW Block]] shrinks him to a baby size during the last chapters.
-A standalone manga, titled "''Super Mario: Yossy Island''" from the [[Super Mario (Kodansha manga)|Kodansha ''Super Mario'' manga series]], was also released. The series, spanning three volumes, was written by Kazuki Motoyama, who had previously written a manga based on the game [[Yoshi (game)|''Yoshi'']], and published by Kodansha Limited. The first two volumes are based on the stories from the game, while the third volume has original stories that use the game's characters and themes.

 According to Shigeru Miyamoto, the marketing department at Nintendo wanted him to use pre-rendered 3D sprites like in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' for the game, rather than stylized 2D sprites. Additionally, found in the game's data are several sprites that go unused, such as several ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' sprites and three unused Yoshi forms. There are also three unused Mini Battles that can be seen in the game's code.

 Later versions of the Japanese release pluralize the collectables in the score screen and alter the number of dots that connect each term to its respective counter.
