| '''''Yoshi Demo''''' is a [[tech demo]]<ref>[http://www.themushroomkingdom.net/techdemos.shtml#ystory The Mushroom Kingdom's Yoshi Demo information]</ref> that appears to be a [[Game Boy Advance]] port of ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''. It is also commonly regarded as [[List of unreleased media|vaporware]], though it is unknown if [[Nintendo]] ever had any intentions of releasing it as a full game. The first version of the demo is completely mute—it does not use any audio assets, but the second version contains music and sound.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epzocbp5wMs Video of version 2 of ''Yoshi Demo'']</ref> The demo's ROM image can be obtained only within the Game Boy Advance {{wp|Software development kit|SDK}}. | |

| As stated above, this tech demo seems to be based on ''Yoshi's Story'', though it has a few differences from that game. ''Yoshi Demo'' begins by showing [[Yoshi's Island (location)|Yoshi's Island]] rotating before cutting to an endless ''Yoshi's Story''-like [[level]].<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6gXrxx0140 YouTube video of the demo]</ref> At the beginning of this level, [[Yoshi]] is given three [[Yoshi's Egg|Yoshi Egg]]s. Though {{wp|IGN}} claimed that Yoshi can lay more eggs by eating enemies,<ref>(December 7, 2001). [https://www.ign.com/articles/2001/12/07/yoshi-demo Yoshi Demo]. ''IGN''. Retrieved January 22, 2023.</ref> this is not true and Yoshi's eggs actually appear to act as health in ''Yoshi Demo'', as he loses both a Yoshi Egg and a petal from his [[Health Meter#Yoshi's Story|Smile Meter]] when getting hit by an enemy attack and regains three petals upon collecting another egg. Health can also be collected by hitting [[Message Block]]s and [[Ground Pound|ground-pound]]ing the [[balloon]] that results. Also, when Yoshi ground-pounds, he does so with his head. ''Yoshi Demo'' introduces [[Toady|Toadies]] that attack Yoshi with spiked balls and [[Thwomp]]-like weight enemies.

(Yoshi losing both a Yoshi Egg and a petal from his health meter when getting hit by an enemy attack and regaining three petals upon collecting another egg.) Health could also be collected by hitting [[Hint Block]]s and [[Ground Pound]]ing the [[balloon]] that resulted. Also, when Yoshi ground pound, he would pound the ground with his head. Interestingly, ''Yoshi's Demo'' would have introduced [[Toady|Toadies]] that would attack [[Yoshi]] with spiked balls and strange weights-like enemies that look like a [[Kirby]] [[Stone (move)|special attack]] would have appeared. |
