Yoshi's New Island is an upcoming title for the Nintendo 3DS, scheduled for release on March 14, 2014 in North America and Europe, March 15, 2014 in Australia, and in Summer 2014 in Japan. It is the third game in the Yoshi's Island series and is a direct sequel to Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, making it an interquel to Yoshi's Island DS.
Story
Right after the events of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, the couple to whom the Stork gave Baby Mario and Baby Luigi allege that the brothers are not their babies. It goes on searching for the real parents, when it finds Kamek wanting to steal the babies once more. Again, he proceeds to take only Baby Luigi away, and Baby Mario falls on the nearby Egg Island. He is found by a group of Yoshis who decide to take him to his brother and defeat Baby Bowser, since he is planning to turn Egg Island into his vacation home.[1][2][3]
Gameplay
Yoshi's New Island is a platform game which plays the same in style as its predecessors, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and Yoshi's Island DS. Much of the scenery and moves from the game are similar, as well.
So far, the main addition to gameplay is the ability to swallow extremely large enemies and turn them into colossal eggs, bigger than Giant Eggs. When thrown, they function similarly to Mega Mushrooms, wrecking everything in their path, the accumulating damage filling a meter that can provide Yoshi with up to three extra lives.
