Throwing Balloons

Throwing Balloons is a Mini Battle featured in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3. Yoshi and Bandit toss a slowly expanding balloon back and forth until it pops, deciding the loser and consequently the winner as well.

Whenever Yoshi receives the balloon, the correct buttons shown must be pressed in time to toss it back to the Bandit, who will then attempt to do the same. There is a set time limit in which the buttons must be entered. If Yoshi or the Bandit make a mistake, the timer restarts. There are a total of three modes, with four, five and six buttons featured respectively. If Yoshi wins, he receives an item; or one, two, or three extra lives. Using the cheat code from the World Map unlocks a multiplayer version of the game in which the Bandit is controlled by a second player.

In stages, this Mini Battle can played behind the locked doors of shacks in The Cave Of Chomp Rock, What's Gusty Taste Like?, Jungle Rhythm..., The Cave Of The Lakitus, BLIZZARD!!!, and KEEP MOVING!!!!. It is the only Mini Battle that can be played in at least one stage of each world, and is playable only by Green, Pink, Light-Blue, and Red Yoshis.
