{{nihongo|'''Yoshi | {{nihongo|'''Super Mario: Yoshi Island'''|スーパーマリオ ヨッシーアイランド|, Suupaa Mario Yosshii Airando}}, often referred to as '''Yoshi's Island''', was developed and originally released in Japan, then localised as '''Yoshi's Island: Super Mario World 2''' on the {{c|SNES}} and later as '''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]''' on the Game Boy Advance. It is a [[platform]] game by [[Nintendo]] for the [[SNES]]. | ||
Despite the numeral ''2'' in the localized title, the game is unrelated to ''[[Super Mario World]]''. In fact, the original title of the latter is ''Super Mario Bros. 4'', whereas this game's original title is ''Super Mario: Yoshi's Island''. While featuring Nintendo's trademark Mario character, the game's innovative graphics and gameplay differed from all previous Mario platformers in that players control various Yoshi lizards<!--it is now established that most dinosaurs were covered in feathers--> rather than Mario himself, who appears as a helpless infant. | |||
The Game Boy Advance version contains new features, including six brand new levels, and a battle mode homage to the original [[Mario Bros.]] (which was included in every single version of Super Mario Advance). | The Game Boy Advance version contains new features, including six brand new levels, and a battle mode homage to the original [[Mario Bros.]] (which was included in every single version of Super Mario Advance). |
