''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' introduces the concept of time-based health, a mechanic that is reused in future ''Yoshi's Island'' games. When the Yoshi comes into contact with an enemy, Baby Mario becomes separated from Yoshi, encased in a bubble and floating around in the air. While Baby Mario is in this state, a [[Countdown Timer]] appears, counting down in seconds until it reaches zero, in which time Yoshi must recover Baby Mario or Kamek's [[Toady|Toadies]] take Baby Mario, and the player loses a life. The timer starts at ten seconds at the beginning of each level, and can be increased to a maximum of thirty by collecting [[Star (Yoshi's Island)|stars]], using [[10-Point Star]]s and [[20-Point Star]]s, and entering [[Middle Rings]]. If the timer falls below ten, it increases back up to ten slowly after recovering Baby Mario. Entering a Middle Ring also marks the point where the Yoshi can continue from if it loses a life. | ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' introduces the concept of time-based health, a mechanic that is reused in future ''Yoshi's Island'' games.

This glitch must be done in [[King Bowser's Castle]], in the Door 1. The Player must go to an area where a [[! Switch]] near a long lava pit can be found. The player would normally have to hit the switch in order to get across the lava, activating the [[Dotted Line Block]]s.

*While the English version is called "Super Mario World 2", the original Japanese title is "Super Mario: Yoshi's Island". This was to draw a connection to Nintendo's earlier [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] success, ''[[Super Mario World]]''. However, this also generated a lot of confusion as to whether to call it a sequel or not, even if it is clearly a prequel to the entire series.
