Balloons also appear in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its reissue]], where they have smiling faces and come in different colors. They appear in [[Don't Look Back!]] and a bonus area in [[Beware The Spinning Logs]], and they continuously rise from the bottom of the screen. Stepping on one of them causes it to stop its natural rising, and using them too long results in their disappearance. They reappear with the same function in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'' in levels [[Windblown Wilderness]] and [[Superhard Acrobatics!]], and in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]''. | Balloons also appear in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its reissue]], where they have smiling faces and come in different colors.

They appear in [[Giddy Sky]] and remain still. If [[Princess Peach|Peach]] stands on them, they go down slowly. If she jumps off one, it makes a short rise. After being stood on the first time, they blink after a few moments and then vanish, reappearing in its original spot after a few more seconds. To make use of them, she has to jump repeatedly to reach new heights before they vanish. | ||
Balloons feature in ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', acting as they did in the ''Yoshi's Island'' games. Balloons can be popped by [[Bullet Bill]]s and [[Bull's-Eye Bill]]s. They can also be popped if they touch the ceiling. | Balloons feature in ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', acting as they did in the ''Yoshi's Island'' games.
