ProfileEdit

Player's Guide description: Brrr! It's mighty cold in the frosty peaks of Yoshi's Island. A smart dino knows there's only one thing to do: hop in the closest chalet and strap on a pair of skis! Keep climbing, and when you run out of solid ground, hop on a winged pal to take you even higher. Uh-oh. Not all birds are of a friendly feather, though. Before exiting World 5, Yoshi will go nose-to-beak in a ground-pounding battle with Raphael the Raven, who would love to squawk "Nevermore!"[2]
