Mario Yoshi Island Game

Posted : admin | On 14-05-2021

Perhaps the most revealing evidence that 'Yoshi's Island' is not a Mario game is its original Japanese title: 'Super Mario: Yoshi's Island'. Only when Nintendo brought the game to the States did the title 'Super Mario World 2' become associated with this release. Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, released on the SNES close to the end of its lifespan, is the first platformer in the Yoshi's Island sub-series of the Super Mario Bros. Franchise, starring Mario's Non-Human Sidekick, Yoshi. This game is part of our Island Games, Mario Games, Platform Games, Retro Games, SNES Games, Super Games, World Games, and Yoshi Games category.

Mario Yoshi Island Game

The Yoshifranchise is a video gameseries of platform games and puzzle games that is a spin-off of the Super Mario series published and produced by the Japanese gaming company Nintendo. The games have been developed by a variety of developers including Nintendo, Game Freak, Intelligent Systems, Artoon, its successor Arzest, and Good-Feel. Yoshi games have been released for Nintendo video game consoles and handhelds dating from the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) to the current generation of video game consoles. Some of the original Nintendo Entertainment System and Super Nintendo Entertainment System games have been ported to Game Boy Advance or the Virtual Console (both, in the case of Super Mario World).[1][2]

The series revolves around Yoshi, a green dinosaur character. He was first introduced in the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) game released in 1990, Super Mario World, where Mario and Luigi can ride on him.[3] The antagonists of the series are Baby Bowser, the young king of Koopas, and Kamek, a Magikoopa who was Bowser's caretaker as a child. The first Yoshi game was the Nintendo Entertainment System puzzle game released in 1991, Yoshi,[3] which was developed by Game Freak.[4] The first game in what is considered the main series, as well as the first to feature Yoshi in a playable main-character role, is the game released in 1995, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, which introduces the universe staples which are used in many following games. These staples include colorful storybook graphics, and several gameplay elements. One of the earlier games in the series, Yoshi's Safari, differs heavily from the rest, as it is a light gun shooter game.[5] The next game in the series is Poochy and Yoshi's Woolly World, a port of the Wii U game Yoshi's Woolly World, released in 2017 for the Nintendo 3DS. The latest game, Yoshi's Crafted World was released on the Nintendo Switch on March 29, 2019.

Cancelled games[edit]

Cancelled		Release years by system:
Cancelled - Nintendo 64[40]
Notes:
  • In 1996, Argonaut Games approached Nintendo with a tech demo of a proposed 3D Yoshi game for Nintendo 64. Nintendo however, rejected the pitch, ending all future business relations between the two companies. The game was then eventually developed into a similar but unrelated game called Croc: Legend of the Gobbos, produced by Fox Interactive for the PlayStation, Sega Saturn and Microsoft Windows, and eventually released a sequel in 1999 titled Croc 2.



Original release date(s):[41]
Cancelled		Release years by system:
Cancelled - Game Boy Advance[41]
Notes:
  • The demo was shown off when Nintendo first unveiled the Game Boy Advance to U.S. game developers. It was a tech demo that was mainly derived from Yoshi's Story. The gameplay drastically differed from the original game. For instance, Yoshi couldn't throw eggs or use his tongue. The demo was meant to show off the graphical capabilities of the Game Boy Advance and it was never released as a completed game.
