| '''''Yoshi's Island DS''''' is the direct sequel to ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', an indirect follow-up to ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', and chronologically the third video game in the [[Mario (series)|''Mario'' series]]. Compared to its predecessor, this game has fewer levels, remastered graphics (although still in "pen and pencil" style), new babies, and a whole new adventure. In this game, Kamek and the Toadies have kidnapped all the babies in the world, including Baby Luigi. Yoshi, Baby Mario, Baby Peach, and the Stork team up and attempt to save the babies. [[Baby Donkey Kong]] and [[Baby Wario]] debut in this game. This was the first ''Yoshi's Island'' game since the original which was released in 1995. A midquel, ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'' for [[Nintendo 3DS]], was released in March 2014.

| ==Story==
| |
| [[File:YIDS-Intro Background.png|thumb|left|250px|The beginning of the game's intro, which shows the events that previously occurred in ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''.]]
| |
| [[File:Stolen Babies - Yoshi's Island DS.png|thumb|[[Kamek]] and some [[Toady|Toadies]] stealing the babies.]]
| |
| [[Kamek]] and his army of [[Toady|Toadies]] steal all of the babies in the [[Mushroom Kingdom]], as well as in other nearby areas. The Toadies take the babies to [[Bowser's Castle]], but the [[Stork]] comes in and attacks two Toadies, making them drop the babies they are carrying. The two babies land on [[Yoshi's Island (place)|Yoshi's Island]] and are revealed to be [[Baby Mario]] and [[Baby Peach]].
| |
| | |
| The Yoshis find the babies and decide to help them. They figure out that Baby Mario, once again, wants to save [[Baby Luigi]] and the other babies from Kamek and his Toadies. The Yoshis take the babies with them and go to rescue the kidnapped babies. Later on in the adventure, sometime after the defeat of [[Gilbert the Gooey]], a group of [[Ukiki]]s kidnaps Baby Peach. The Yoshis and Baby Mario find another baby, [[Baby Donkey Kong]], who was left behind when the Toadies were kidnapping all the other babies. With the help of Baby Donkey Kong, Yoshi is able to rescue Baby Peach from the Ukikis. Baby Donkey Kong joins the team when the Ukikis are defeated.
| |
| | |
| Promptly after defeating [[Bessie Bass]] on a battleship, the Yoshis and the babies are swept away by a tidal wave in a storm. They eventually find [[Baby Wario]], who is also left behind. Baby Wario then decides to join the party.
| |
| | |
| When [[Priscilla]] is defeated, Baby Wario decides to join a team of [[Bandit]]s in hope of getting money. Meanwhile, after the Yoshis defeat [[Six-Face Sal]], it is revealed that future [[Bowser]] and future Kamek are the ones kidnapping the babies and that they are looking for the seven [[star children]]. The star children are young children that have magical stars in them. If one collects all the stars, then the owner will rule the universe. Kamek kidnaps [[Baby Bowser]] (while Kamek of the past tries to stop him), and Baby Bowser and Bowser get into a fight, ending with Bowser causing his infant self to fall out of a window of the castle. Baby Bowser lands on Yoshi's back and joins their team, although they are worried that he might attack them.
| |
| | |
| Baby Bowser does not stay for the rest of the adventure. When [[Big Guy the Stilted]] is defeated, he leaves with Kamek, who then returns to [[Bowser's Castle]] and uses a [[Crystal Ball]] to check every baby they have kidnapped (with the exception of Baby Luigi, who hides from it) to determine if they are star children, which they are not. Bowser becomes furious, and he sends the Toadies to keep looking for more babies.
| |
| | |
| The team finally arrives at [[At Last, Bowser's Castle!|Bowser's Castle]] where Baby Wario and Baby Bowser are arguing over who gets to keep some treasure. They then notice the Yoshis and help them travel through the castle. When they finally get to the top of the castle, however, Baby Bowser tells the Yoshis to leave. When they do not leave, Baby Bowser thinks [[Yoshi]] is there to steal his treasure. Baby Bowser fights Yoshi, but Yoshi defeats him.
| |
| | |
| Bowser then comes in the room and is angry at what Yoshi did to his younger self. He then fights Yoshi, but gets defeated just like his younger self. Kamek then uses magic to help Bowser become giant. The four babies with four Yoshis fight against the Giant Bowser using [[Giant Yoshi Egg|Giant Egg]]s and are eventually able to defeat him. Kamek escapes when Bowser is defeated, with four Toadies carrying Bowser right behind him. Baby Bowser decides to escape with Bowser and Kamek, and holds on to his broomstick.
| |
| | |
| The Yoshis save all the kidnapped babies, and the storks take all the babies back to their home, except for Baby Wario, who is homeless. Supposedly, the Stork adopts Baby Wario and takes him to a raft where Baby Bowser's treasure ends up. A flying rock hits Kamek's broomstick, and Baby Bowser lets go and falls down right in his treasure. Baby Wario and Baby Bowser start arguing about who gets to keep the treasure again.
| |
| | |
| It is then revealed that the seven star children are Baby Mario, Baby Luigi, Baby Peach, Baby Donkey Kong, Baby Wario, Baby Bowser, and a newborn Baby Yoshi, who hatches from its [[Yoshi Egg]] at the end of the game.
| |
| | |
| ==Modes==
| |
| [[File:YIDSmenu.png|thumb|The title screen is similar to that of the original game ''Yoshi's Island''.]]
| |
| ===Adventure===
| |
| Gameplay mainly revolves around adventure mode, similarly played out as the original. Throughout the five unique worlds, a different colored Yoshi takes on one out of eight levels, with a mini-boss in Level 4 and a boss in Level 8 of each world. Enemies, items, coins, and other collectibles litter the levels. Some items count toward a score of 100, which is then displayed in the level select screen. If every level in a world has 100, one level, the extra level, is unlocked.
| |
| | |
| When a Yoshi is hit by an enemy, the baby is knocked loose from his back crying, and the [[Star (Yoshi's Island)|star]] power - the source of the protective bubble that keeps the Toadies from taking the baby - goes down by one star per second. If that number goes down to zero, Toadies take away the baby and a life is lost. Yoshi, however, still has a small amount of time to recover the baby even after the Toadies have grabbed. Yoshi can rescue the baby by touching the bubble with its body or its tongue. If Yoshi hits the bubble with an egg, the bubble gets knocked down, making the baby easier to reach. The star power starts at ten in each level. If a baby is recovered with less than ten stars, the star power slowly reverts to ten. Additionally, groups of five stars can be found in [[Winged Cloud]]s and [[crate]]s, and goal roulettes give twenty additional star power, allowing the star power to max at thirty. Remaining star power also counts toward the score at the completion of the level.
| |
| | |
| Although Yoshi cannot be defeated in normal circumstances, he instantly loses a life if he touches [[spike]]s, [[lava]], falls into endless pits, or gets crushed. The mode also features the [[Island Museum]], which is accessible at any time. In this museum, all the enemies [[Yoshi (species)|the Yoshis]] have defeated with [[Yoshi Egg]]s appear as exhibits.
| |
| | |
| ===Minigames===
| |
| [[Minigames]] are unlocked in Adventure Mode:
| |
| | |
| *[[Tulip Shooter]] - Yoshi must grab and spit enemies into a tulip.
| |
| *[[Flutter Challenge]] - Yoshi must try to flutter-jump as far as possible.
| |
| *[[Bouncy Maze]] - Yoshi must maneuver his way through a simple maze of [[Bouncy|Bouncies]].
| |
| *[[Speed-Eater]] - Yoshi must try to swallow as many enemies as possible.
| |
| *[[Egg Toss]] - Yoshi must hit targets with [[egg]]s.
| |
| | |
| All minigames have a set time limit. Achieving a high score in any minigame awards Yoshi with lives. Harder versions of all the minigames can be unlocked by collecting all the [[Character Coin]]s in a world.
| |
| | |
| ===Time Trial===
| |
| Time Trial is unlocked once Adventure Mode has been beaten. It is similar to Adventure Mode, but, the player is timed. Yoshi has one hundred minutes to finish each level - even when the player presses the Start Button, the time continues. If the player collects [[Red Coins]], [[Smiley flower|flowers]], and [[Stars]], time is added to the time taken to finish the level.
| |
| | |
| ==Gameplay==
| |
| ===Controls===
| |
| [[File:Yoshiisland2-9.png|200px|thumb|The controls menu in which the player can choose from Hasty to Patient.]]

| ===Babies===
| |
| [[File:YIDS_Babies.jpg|thumb|Promotional artwork, showing the babies riding on Yoshis.]]
| |
| New to the sequel at certain spots are [[Stork Stop]]s, which let Yoshis change babies, providing different unique abilities. All four hidden babies in order can be unlocked by completing boss levels of the Adventure Mode.

| |
| |Baby Bowser can breathe fire, but Yoshi cannot swallow any enemies, meaning he cannot make eggs (although Yoshi can collect eggs). A fire blast often is the equivalent of an egg, being able to break winged clouds and destroy dirt walls as well as melting ice, but the blasts do not bounce off walls.
| |

| |
| | |
| ===Forms===
| |
| A Yoshi can morph into several different types of vehicle with the help of a [[Morph Bubble]]. To revert to normal, the Yoshi must either touch a [[Yoshi Block]] or wait until the time runs out, as the forms last only for a certain period of time. The Yoshi, however, must touch the Yoshi Block to progress the level; otherwise, he is directed back to the Morph Bubble. While Baby Mario stays protected in a bubble, Yoshi is also invincible while in these forms, but if he is hit, he is stunned and knocked into a certain direction, making him lose time. Yoshi also cannot attack in these form.
| |
| | |
| There are three forms:

| ==Similarities to ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''==
| |
| *The first piece of the first level of World 1 is same as the one from its prequel.
| |
| *In one level, there is a bush near the [[goal roulette]] containing a [[Shy Guy]]. If [[Yoshi]] passes through the bush, without defeating the Shy Guy first, a [[Bandit]] will swap it out for [[Baby Mario]], whom he tries to run off with. The Shy Guy will stay on Yoshi's back until he grabs Baby Mario back from the Bandit.
| |

| ''Yoshi's Island DS'' was developed by the company [[Artoon]], instead of [[Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development|Nintendo EAD]] like other ''Yoshi'' games were. The game was directed by Hidetoshi Takeshita and the lead programmer was Yuki Hatakeyama. [[Takashi Tezuka]], served as one of the senior producers of the game, with Naoto Ohshima being the other one.

| | |
| ==Reception==
| |
| ''Yoshi's Island DS'' received mainly positive reviews from critics. It was praised for having similar gameplay to its predecessor, as well as the artwork, although the gameplay's being too similar to its predecessor is frequently cited. Some critics also considered it the best portable ''Yoshi'' game released.
| |
| | |
| In a positive review, Craig Harris of IGN has praised the game for its design.<ref>[http://uk.ign.com/articles/2006/11/14/yoshis-island-ds-review IGN - Yoshi's Island DS Review ]</ref>. He has described the game more of a nostalgic reminder of ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' rather than an advancement of the series. As a result, he suggested that the designs stuck too close to original formula, ruining surprises for veteran players of ''Yoshi's Island''. He praised the different babies, although he felt that Baby Wario "was a last-minute edition and not tested properly". Although he noted that the dual screen gave the players a bigger view, but criticized the blind spot between the dual screens.

| | |
| Tom Bramwell of Eurogamer was reluctant to praise ''Yoshi's Island DS'' in the same way as ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'', as he considered the game to be a "distended version of Yoshi". He acknowledges Artoon's effort in the game and the variety of babies and levels. He also criticizes the developers' abuse of the blind spot between the two screens and that the developers failed to establish trust for the player to explore. He finally stated that "Artoon is cribbing from the same notes. It's a shame, because there are times when you catch glimpses of the sort of thing the Japanese team is really capable of[...]."

| ''Yoshi's Island DS'' was placed 46 on Gamesradar's Top 50 DS games. The small feature called it a fresh and new experience, a beautiful 2D world, and that they'd never tire of playing the game.<ref>[http://www.gamesradar.com/best-ds-games/]</ref>

| |''"It's hard to top a masterpiece, but that's just what Nintendo and Artoon have done with Yoshi's Island DS. By incorporating one major new feature and leaving everything else alone, they've produced a sequel that seems fresh and new while remaining every bit as awesome as the original. If you enjoy side-scrolling platformers, you have to play this one."''

| |''"Don't let the negative tone throw you -- Yoshi's Island DS is a great game. It's just a egg throw's distance away from having the same impact the original Yoshi's Island did more than a decade ago. It sets out to emulate everything that made the first game so great, and does a really good job doing that. But it runs into the problem of not doing enough to make it its own game. No huge surprises, and no significant additions to the genre...it's just a solid recreation of the Yoshi's Island elements in a two-screen-high format. It's fun and challenging with a couple of unpolished quirks."''

| *''Yoshi's Island DS'', initially titled ''Yoshi's Island 2'', was originally going to be compatible with Nintendo Wi-Fi. This was scrapped from the game for unknown reasons.
| |
| *Early screenshots showcasing a battle with [[Big Guy the Stilted]] seemed to suggest that Big Guy was once going to be organic, as he had no patches on him in that picture (although one patch is visible near his right foot, which may mean his graphics were slightly incomplete).

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *The box art shows [[Baby Bowser]] riding [[Yellow Yoshi]], and [[Baby Wario]] riding [[Light Blue Yoshi]]; however, they do not ride these Yoshis in the game (excluding when Baby Wario is in the final boss fight). This is because the babies are only playable in the last four levels on the world map, as opposed to the Yoshis they ride, which are in the first four.
