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.

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.
