This articles needs a story section--Widkid85 18:35, 29 April 2007 (EDT)

does this have hidden levels?

It should. 14:28, 23 August 2007 (EDT)

Needs WAY more info!!!
Orangeyoshi Way too short. Way too little information. The information we have is not the kind of information we need. There's a few sentences of general information, and then a list of levels enemies and bosses, and that's it. It's perfectly good information, but is that all there is to the game? Even the Wikipedia article is a lot better. It actually has information about gameplay, plot, presentation, reception etc. I think this article should be rewritten and expanded, or else have a very incomplete article about an important game.


 * You know that you can edit the article, right? --Blitzwing 16:57, 20 January 2008 (EST)


 * Yeah, but I don't know much about the game, I've only played the remake, and that was a long time ago. And I'm not good at writing wiki articles. And if I wrote it, it would be in the wrog tone. I'm not the kind of guy on this wiki who re-writes the articles that aren't good enough. I don't want to be lazy and tell other people to do it, but I think we need a SMW2: Yoshi's Island expert for reworking this article. -Orangeyoshi 09:49, 21 January 2008 (EST)


 * I'll be working on this article. [[Image:Paperjorgesp.png]] Paper Jorge [[Image:Paperjorgesp.png]]


 * That's good. What kind of things do you think you'll add? Oh good, there's a plot section now. There should still be a part explaining the gameplay, it's not like other platformers.Orangeyoshi 20:30, 22 January 2008 (EST) P.S. "Yoshi's Island (game)" should redirect here. How do I do that?

Missing an enemy?
Does anyone know the name of those little snowmen enemies that wear big polka-dotted pants and come in groups of 4 (1 "mother" and 3 children)? You can use the babies as bouncy eggs if you separate them from the "mother". I actually came here looking to find out the name of them. Pic for refrence.

 * Huffin Puffin I believe it was-BUT! It's not an enemy. It's more of an allie, altough it acts similar to Bumpty because they try to push Yoshi off. Paper Jorge ( Talk&middot;Contributions)&middot;

My version has different level names!
My copy has "Fight Baddies w/ Baddies" and "Crazy Maze Days", not "Fight Toadies w/ Toadies" and "Endless World of Yoshis". Is this an England / America difference or something? Avengah 13:02, 13 April 2008 (EDT)


 * I think you have the GBA version of the game. The GBA has different names for some levels. Paper Jorge ( Talk&middot;Contributions)&middot;


 * The levels in question are the Secret levels, which are not in the SNES version... Avengah 17:01, 13 April 2008 (EDT)
 * This is pretty important... Somebody answer... I would but I do not have GBA version. A Link to the Present 13:55, 9 April 2011 (EDT)
 * The GBA Version has the latter two. 17:41, 24 March 2012 (EDT)

What are these enemies called?
They are little green cactussy things that bounce a Needlenose up and down on their heads. You can eat the Needlenose, and the enemy will stay where it is for a few seconds, then go down. After a while, it will generate a new Needlenose. I'm not sure if this enemy is in the list.

Also, anyone know the answer to my question about the Secret Level names? Thanks! Avengah 11:41, 14 April 2008 (EDT)


 * This enemy is not included in the list, but I don't know how it's called, sorry. 12:01, 14 April 2008 (EDT)

Acording to Wikpedia, a 3DS and Virtual Console remake is coming out!--AnonymousPerson is a fraud! He does not like his talking doughnuts! 21:22, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
 * "The game has yet to be announced to be ported for the Wii's Virtual Console, however the game is slated for possible re-release on the Nintendo 3DS."

As of now, nothing is confirmed. 17:21, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
 * This game is among a large list of classic games that Reggie said in an interview were being remade for the Nintendo 3DS. Wii's Virtual Console? Still no word. A Link to the Present 13:58, 9 April 2011 (EDT)
 * A new remake? Sounds New Super Mario Bros. Wii-ish and pretty new to me.--Prince Ludwig 03:01, 1 June 2011 (EDT)

Debug Room
I found something that wasn't described here yet. It is a debug room from this game (picture on here: http://www.vgmaps.com/Atlas/SuperNES/SuperMarioWorld2-Yoshi'sIsland-DebugRoom.png) Do any of you think that there should be a section about this room? --Marioblender 22:32, 10 January 2011 (EST)

I'm rewriting the entire article. What do you think this article needs?

!¡!¡!¡!¡Yoshi's Island Beta!¡!¡!¡!¡
Okay, everyone. Look closely.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKzA-SCjnG4

The above is a promotional video for Yoshi's Island that was likely played on television screens in retail stores. It is not the same promotional video as the one featuring Ken Lobb.

What's exciting here is that this video features a **beta** version of Yoshi's Island. You'll notice some differences in background and enemy placement. I think these changes are worth noting somewhere on MarioWiki. As far as I can tell, no other website has ever noted these changes. This can be a MarioWiki exclusive. What differences do you notice?

too many pics. an article should be made User:JORDANDEBONO

realted
Super Mario world 2 is clearly part of the mario series and the next mario game after mario world. it's called mario world 2 in america,so in america it's related.japan and america have different mario bros 2 but noone says the current mario bros 2 isn't connected to the rest of the series.
 * Yoshi is the protagonist and therefore is a Yoshi game. Mario has to be the protagonist for this game to be a Mario game. 96.63.12.93 01:41, 24 August 2013 (EDT)

Added to version differences
Added more details about the version difference. There was actually two distinct pal releases. One was for the New Zealand and Australia, that feature the yellow border on the box and the yellow label on the cartridge itself, the other one was for Europe (game had a language selector allowing you to switch between English, French and German), that featured a box identical to the NTSC release, aswell as cartridge label.

An idea
I was thinking like the level articles in Donkey Kong 64 list the loations of the Golden Bananas and the New Super Mario Bros. (series) levels list the locations of the Star Coins, should we list the locations of the collectibles in levels here, or should we just list some like the Flowers?
 * I don't know. Listing the locations of all 20 red coins per level sounds like a pain. You shouldn't just list flowers either since since they are just part of the 100% process. For this game, in my opinion it's all or none. 14:47, 7 August 2013 (EDT)
 * It would be a pain, but I'm fine with doing the menial tasks. My only problem would be the Star locations because you get them all by bouncing eggs off walls as long as you get a good angle.
 * I think that's just an optional way of getting stars. You should focus on getting stars from blocks and ? clouds instead because those are definite locations. I'm not sure how you can list red coin locations. Describing it is good, but an image to accompany is even better. 15:47, 7 August 2013 (EDT)
 * My only problem with getting images is that I'm fairly certain they're not going to be the easiest thing to track down, other than on internet playthroughs, and I don't have a good program for cropping.

Something that would make this article a little easier to read...
It would be much easier to read if you'd only call it "Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island" in the opening section, and thereafter call it "Yoshi's Island". It'd incredibly tiresome to read the full title written out over and over again all throughout the article. 98.243.94.83 20:01, 27 March 2014 (EDT)
 * That is the full title however, it'd be informal to start using an abbreviation, just like we don't call Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story ML:BiS on the article.

New Reference
Isn't the "Powerful Infant" theme re-used in Super Mario 64? If so, can I put that as a "Reference in Later Games"? --Michael (talk) 16:21, 2 April 2014 (EDT)

The "Powerful Infant" theme is in fact, re-used in Super Mario 64, so, yes, you may put that as a reference.

This is chronologically the first Mario game.
I noticed that the article says Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island is the prequel to Super Mario World but the trivia section says It is the prequel to the entire Mario series which would make it the very first Mario game. Not the prequel to Super Mario World unless the original super mario bros never happened. I say super mario bros because Miyamoto confirmed that super mario bros 3 was a play and thus the events couldn't have been chronological to the mario series....unless Mario and his friends were reenacting the adventure in super mario bros 3

 * While the overall series's timeline is a little scrambled, Yoshi's Island is definitely one of the first - if not, the first - game in the series. Some would argue that the original Donkey Kong would be the first, as well. I actually have a theory about that, but another time!
 * As for why it's called "Super Mario World 2" ... no one really knows. In Japan, the game is called "Super Mario World: Yoshi's Island" but it's unknown why the "2" was added... (Alex95 (talk) 18:47, 29 February 2016 (EST))
 * I'm pretty sure they called it Super Mario World 2 so players of the original Super Mario World would be more likely to buy it. -- 18:56, 29 February 2016 (EST)
