This is a list of pre-release and unused content for the game Yoshi's Story.

Early ideas[edit]

The game's original name and logo.

The game's working title was Yoshi's Island 64. The early logo looks similar to the SNES game Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island logo, implying that Yoshi's Story was originally planned as a sequel to said game and would have been a title in the Yoshi's Island series.

Early builds[edit]

As seen in early footage and screenshots, there was originally going to be a playable Brown Yoshi and Purple Yoshi.[1] However, they were replaced by Pink Yoshi and White Yoshi in the final game. Special Flowers were set to appear in the game,[2] but did not make it to the final version. Big Shy Guys were going to appear[3] and Bone Dragons were to be purple, flesh-covered dragons rather than bony, undead ones. They also looked less sinister. Also it appears that these flesh-covered dragons would have appeared in a more vibrant looking cave rather than the dark one seen in the final game.

Stage 4-2: The Jungle Puddle was known to be much more menacing, with large bubbles and a Bone Dragon. Jungle Hut also looked different than the final version. Yoshi also used the same noises he did in Super Mario World and Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, likely as placeholders until the voice was decided on.[citation needed]

An unused theme can be found in the game's files. It may have been used for another Page.[4]
