Talk:Yoshi's Island (location)

Under protectors it states Baby Mario/Luigi and Mairo and Luigi. Shouldn't we delete one of those (probably the baby ones, since their real names are Mario and Luigi, not Baby Mario and Baby Luigi), seeing as they are the same thing? --Bentendo 12:41, 4 April 2007 (EDT)


 * It's correct they are the same, but in the game Partners in Time they saved the land as well as Mario and Luigi. So the four of them saved Yoshi's Island, at the same time.

Congratulations
Now the pictures of the other Yoshi's Island stages are deleted. Credit goes to. Now how to get them back? It is not possible to restore them. - 04:50, 21 July 2007 (EDT)
 * Don't blame Knife. How would you liked to be insulted like that. I can get them back, don't worry.
 * I'm just a bit upset now. Why where the images removed from the article anyway? They would have been needed with the infobox, too. And I also don't like it that unused images have to be removed the instant they are no longer used. We should somehow wait at least a single day before deleting them. Sorry Knife. - 04:55, 21 July 2007 (EDT)
 * That's a great idea, I'll put it on Talk:Main Page. Thanks for the idea, hopefully Images won't be deleted that quickly anymore. Also, I already re-uploaded the Images, so don't worry. Cobold, just so you know, don't insult other Users.
 * Was it an insult? I guess it can be considered one. I'm very sorry if it was. Thanks for re-uploading. About the main page, I've already done that. - 05:01, 21 July 2007 (EDT)
 * I know. Lol. BTW, to me, an insult is anything that is purposely offensive to someone. As for the Images, no problem. Another thing, I hardly think adding 200 letters to a page is a Minor Edit :P

SMW picture
There's something wrong with the picture from Super Mario World. It has water in the wrong place. And the water is the wrong color. It's covering the front of the island. Did someone change the picture, or what happened? There should be a picture of how the island really looks in that game.Orangeyoshi

And by the way, I'm going to add a bit more to the Super Mario World section. (Wait, I geuss I don't really need to say that.)Orangeyoshi 20:13, 22 January 2008 (EST)

Lavalava Island
Hey, I posted this on the Lavalava Island discussion, but no one ever goes there, and it is relevant here too. So, heres a copy of what I posted:

I've completed Paper Mario and Yoshi's Island, and I've noticed Lavalava Island and Yoshi's Island appear to be one and the same. The first clue was Yoshi's village, that was on Yoshi's Island in Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time. Secondly, what about Raphael the Raven? In Yoshi's Island, he was native to Yoshi's Island, but in Paper Mario he appears in Jade Jungle on Lavalava Island. I suppose he could have flown from one island to the other, but I doubt that. There are loads more similarities between the two Islands, they are both tropical, they are both volcanic, they both have dense jungle and most importantly it was stated in Paper Mario that Lavalava Island was where all Yoshis live, but Yoshi's Island (DS version I think) stated that Yoshi's Island was where all Yoshis live. Obviously all yoshis can't live in two places!

So could they both be the same island?

-Scruffy

I think it is nessecary to put this on the Yoshi's Island Page. Plus, on the Yoshi's Village page, it states Yoshi's village is on Lavalava Island, but in Mario & Luigi Partners in time, it is quite obviously on Yoshi's Island. I'm gonna post this on the Yoshi's village discussion as well. -Scruffy


 * Nintendo has problems with consistency. Generic statements like "this is the home of all Yoshis" don't hold much water when it's been made clear that Yoshis are found all over the Mushroom World. There may also be multiple villages on the multiple islands, and characters often turn up all over the place (i.e. Yoshi seems to live on both Yoshi's Island and the vastly different Yo'ster Isle). Long story short, it's best to avoid speculation and just assume they're different places for now. Similarities could be noted in the Trivia sections, but that's all that can be said. - 10:08, 15 April 2009 (EDT)

Split into Yoshi's Island (Super Mario World 2) and Yoshi's Island (Super Mario World)
In Japan, Yoshi's Island is two different places: Yoster Island and Yoshi Island. You could say that, after Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Super Mario World's Yoster Island was renamed Yoshi Island and completely redesigned, but Yoster Island appears again in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time as it was in Super Mario World. So, apparently, Yoshi lives (well, lived until he moved to the Sky Station Galaxy) on Yoster Island while the Green Yoshi that saved Baby Mario lives on Yoshi Island. Should we split this article in two, as it's two different places ? Koopalmier 01:03, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

Species
Does someone mind filling in the species from SMW2: YI and YIDS? I am too busy to finish it.

Paper Baby Luigi 05:37, 4 July 2011 (EDT)


 * I removed the SMW2 and YIDS species because if we added that in, it's basically listing all the enemies in those games. I just made links to the articles which list the games' (and Yoshi's Island's) enemies instead. Look here: (SMW2: YI; YIDS)

M&L: Partners in Time
Can I get confirmation of the inhabitants of this island? It doesn't seem like their are any Yoshis here. If there are, can we add this?Paper Baby Luigi 14:43, 4 July 2011 (EDT)
 * Their are Yoshis there but if recall they were eaten by Yoob

Yos'ter Island
It stats in this website http://www.smbhq.com/who.htm that Yos'ter Island is Yoshi's summer home and NOT the actual Yoshi's Island. Should that be included somewhere in the article?
 * No i don't think that website is official

Is World 6 in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island in a different place?
In this page World 6 (Koopa Kingdom) of Yoshi's Island is reported, but from the title screen, the text and the small cutscene before entering it seems to be in a different place than Yoshi's Island. I would like to know if this is actually true or if I just misinterpreted what the game said about the last world.

Split into and
So this article is effectively talking about two fairly distinct locations muddled by localization. One is the small, tropical, and squarish "Yo'ster Island" that appears in Super Mario World, Super Mario RPG, and Partners in Time. It is generally depicted with some polyhedral brown mountains covered in grass in the back and full of plants bearing those fruit Yoshi eats. The other is the sprawling, multi-biomed, rounded "Yoshi Island" that appears in the Yoshi's Island series proper, Yoshi's Story, Mario Golf, and Fortune Street. This one consistently has a cluster of domed blue mountains covered in snow in the center and seems to have more rainbows than fruit. Both these differences are especially visible in the mash Bros. games. Despite both being "the home of the Yoshis," the same is said about Lavalava Island, Yoshi's Tropical Island, and even Yoshi Desert, so it's not like that's ever been too consistent either. I think these should be split for clarity. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 02:49, September 16, 2021 (EDT)
 * I honestly don't think Mario Golf supports your argument - while the giant fruits are an obvious nod to Yoshi's Story, it is a tropical area with no sign of those blue snow-capped mountains. Additionally, while the huts in the Partners in Time incarnation seem to be inspired by Yoshi's House, there are also a lot of Yoshi franchise references there: the SMW2 title screen music in the village area, the Yoshi egg-patterned door at the summit, Kamek's involvement (and him outright calling back to the events of SMW2), Chomp Rocks appearing in Yoob's Belly, and just the fact that it's a Yoshi-themed area in a game where the baby bros. are main characters. There's a notable divide between the Rare and Retro Studios versions of Donkey Kong Island, and we don't split that. 19:24, September 16, 2021 (EDT)
 * Honestly this seems pretty arbitrary considering just about every recurring location in the series has inconsistent portrayal. I don't think this would help readers at all. -- 19:32, September 16, 2021 (EDT)
