Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island is the first game in the Yoshi series, released in 1995 for the Super Nintendo. In America, the game was released as a sequel to Super Mario World, though it was originally known as Super Mario: Yoshi's Island in Japan. The game received an updated port to the Game Boy Advance, called Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3. In this game, Yoshi must reunite Baby Mario with Baby Luigi, after Baby Luigi is kidnapped by Kamek.
Boo Balloons appear as rare enemies, only appearing in 2-4 (Bigger Boo's Fort) and 4-3 (Don't Look Back!). They inflate after being hit with one of Yoshi's eggs. After three hits, they explode, yielding a prize of coins. A similarly-named enemy (which also inflates), the Balloon Boo, appears in New Super Mario Bros.
Bigger Boo is the boss of 2-4 (Bigger Boo's Fort). Being a Boo, this boss will become invisible when Yoshi is looking at him. To damage him, Yoshi must ricochet his eggs off of the walls, when facing away from Bigger Boo. Bigger Boo inflates every time he is hit, before he explodes.
Yoshi's Island DS is the sequel to Yoshi's Island, released in 2006 for the Nintendo DS.
The Gobblin enemy is an uncommon foe, which cannot harm Yoshi. Instead, Gobblins block Yoshi's path. To defeat a Gobblin, Yoshi must feed him six eggs, with the Gobblin growing with each egg eaten. After the sixth egg, the Gobblin will explode, clearing the path.
Yoshi's New Island is a video game for the Nintendo 3DS. It is the sequel to Yoshi's Island, for the Super Nintendo. In this game, the Yoshis on Egg Island help Baby Mario reunite with his brother, Baby Luigi, after Baby Luigi is kidnapped by Baby Bowser.
Mega Eggdozers and Metal Eggdozers are features unique to this game. Yoshi can create one by swallowing a Mega Guy or Metal Guy, respectively.
'World 2-1 (Koopa Canyon)'
'World 1-2 (Chomp Rock 'n' Roll)'
Yoshi also demonstrates this ability in one of the commercials for the game.
Yoshi's Woolly World is a platformer game released by for the Nintendo Wii U. In this game, Kamek transforms the Yarn Yoshis on Craft Island into Wonder Wool, so Yarn Yoshi must rescue his fellow Yoshis.
Yarn Yoshi bloats up whenever he consumes an enemy and turns them into an egg.
Yarn Yoshi bloats up bigger if he consumes an enemy whilst the player is using the 'Make all yarn balls big!' badge.
He can also unravel some of the scenery.
Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World is a Nintendo 3DS version of the original Wii U game. As a new feature of the game, there are unlockable stop-motion shorts, featuring Yarn Yoshi and Poochy.
In the 'Snooze Glutton' short, Yarn Yoshi ends up eating his noisy alarm clock, which continues to ring inside him.
In the 'Watermelon Munch' short, Yarn Yoshi stuffs himself by eating an entire watermelon slice, before spitting out the seeds.
Yoshi's Crafted World was released for the Nintendo Switch in 2019, and developed by Good-Feel.
Like Yoshi's Woolly World, Yoshi bloats up whenever he consumes an enemy. (More details to come when the game releases)

Yoshi's Woolly World |
---|
Also known as: Yoshi Wool World (JP) This game has unused areas. |
Yoshi's Woolly World is the first Yoshi game to be on a home console since the Nintendo 64. This game has a yarn art style, similar to Kirby's Epic Yarn. The gameplay is very similar to the Yoshi's Island games, but without any whiny babies to carry and chase after. Thank goodness!
The game received a port for the Nintendo 3DS, aptly titled Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World, which added even more amiibo and the ability to create custom Yarn Yoshi skins, among other extras.
To do:
|
mapdata has 42 archives for test maps. This seems to be used to test out various things such as engine rendering.
In mapdataepic_yarn_kirby, there are 78 stages which quite obviously belong to Kirby's Epic Yarn. However, these might be the files that contain the coordinates of certain map objects à la Super Mario 3D World, or XML-styled formatting.
To do: More test levels can be accessed by editing worlddata.txt in /data/ |
A simple stage with a few objects placed around. The stage appears impossible to complete, due to missing objects being replaced with placeholders.
This stage appears to be a slightly different version of the stage that was shown in Nintendo Direct 23 January 2013. Objects are missing from the stage and are instead replaced with placeholders, most likely due to the object data being missing from the game. It's not possible to complete the stage, as you can't travel to the other side. The level may also lack a goal ring entirely.
One of the more detailed unused stages in the game. It appears that Yoshi would have been able to switch between the foreground and background at least once during this stage, but due to missing objects, it's impossible to do so, and as such not possible to complete the stage.
In the root of the game, there is a test folder full of objects, shaders, and some Miiverse stamps. Shaders and Miiverse stamps are split into two different folders called shader and body_memo_sample.
There are three test shaders within this directory.
This directory seems to have been used for testing out the Miiverse features, such as stamps. While the final game does have stamps, these are done in a very different style. The folder also has .tga and.gtx versions of the stamps, along with an SDK tool for converting .tga images to .gtx called tga2gtxTEstTool.bat (sic). There is also a very humorous drawing of a Swapnote envelope with a body saying 'Hi'.
memo.tga
stamp_73.tga and stamp_73.gtx
stamp_80.tga and stamp_80.gtx
In charatest, there is leftover data for a test character. It may have been used for animation testing of some sort according to the archive size of TESTANIM00.gfa being around 2.4mb in size.
Located at /test/tr_coin_yellow and /test/tr_coin_red are models for the coins and the red coins like the ones found in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. Sequenced sounds exist for the objects in the bfsar.
120 - SD_REDCOIN01 to 129 - SD_REDCOIN10
194 - SD_COIN1
There are no other SD_COIN_x sounds.
There are two unused sequenced jingles.
108 - WSD_StageClrDemo
An early stage clear jingle.
109 - WSD_LODING
An early loading theme.
To do: Get this menu working (if it even can still be loaded) so both pause menus can be compared. |
Contained in env/in_game/pause_old.gfa is an older version of the in-level pause menu. This older variant contains a few early versions of existing graphics used in-game.

Interestingly, according to Merino.msbt (the game's text archive), Stamp Patches were once called Mii Beads.

Used for testing, it does not use a texture for filter.
Used for testing, it uses LutTest.gtx.
There is a hefty batch of 25 unused light parameter scripts for various test levels. Ranging from environment mapping, stages with UV scrolling, and other render methods such as photo realism.

sound/SoundDisableCallFrame.bson has text in it. The single kanji in this file (found on line 6) simply means 'Wednesday'.
To do: Any more? |
Despite the fact that the American version was released four months after all other versions and unlike more recent Nintendo games which had two completely different English translations, the American and Australian/European versions have only minor textual differences.
North America | |
---|---|
FINE! Burt, hitch up your trousers and GO BUST UP THAT YOSHI! | FINE! Burt, hitch up your pants and GO BUST UP THAT YOSHI! |
This change was necessary because 'pants' refers to outerwear in American English and underwear in British English. Even though the American meaning is used in Australia, the British English version of the line is still used; however, 'trousers' is technically still not incorrect.
A handful of Yoshi Design names differ between the American and European versions:

The scrapbook option has different names across regions.
Australia/Europe | Japan | North America |

Scrapbook Theatre | Memory Theater (おもいでシアター) | Scrapbook Theater |
In addition to all the enemies except Kamek having separate names for the Japanese localization, one entry was altered even in English.
Australia/Europe | Japan | North America |
---|---|---|
Giant Nep-Enut | Big Unbaba (blue) (ビッグウンババ(あお)) | Nep-Enut |
The red and blue variations of this enemy were previously translated as Gargantua Blargg and simply Nep-Enut respectively in English localizations of the Yoshi's Island series. The European localizers apparently didn't notice that no small version of a Nep-Enut exists in this game, or in any Yoshi game for that matter. This was caught by the North American release.
Yoshi's Woolly World's project name is Merino according to the game's text archive. Merino is a sheep breed that is commonly used for their wool.
