This is a list of beta elements of the game Yoshi's Island DS.

Early builds

  • Yoshi's Island DS (which was initially titled Yoshi's Island 2) was originally going to be compatible with Nintendo Wi-Fi.
  • Speaking of said early title: what you are about to read is all true. There was this person who got Yoshi's Island DS for the first time. Before his mom started to pay for it, he saw an actual... Yoshi's Island DS Beta... Right there. That was the only time he saw it. No one knows after that. "Not sure if someone has it... Or beta got recalled." Pretty similar to the famous Super Mario Galaxy "Rated M!?" story and the not so famous Pokémon Crystal Rated "PGL16" said the sticker, eh?
  • Early screenshot showcasing a battle with Big Guy the Stilted seems to suggest that Big Guy was once going to be organic, as he had no patches on him in that picture (although one patch was visible near his right foot, which may merely mean his graphics were slightly incomplete).
  • One screenshot of an unknown origin shows a Black Yoshi traversing a flowery area with Baby Peach. The particular event illustrated in the picture doesn't seem to be left in the final game.
  • Baby Peach's cry was also going to sound more adult-like Template:Refneeded.
  • The level "Donuts and Eggs" wasn't themed in the mid-west, as shown in an early trailerTemplate:Refneeded.
  • Originally, the player could only destroy enemies by jumping on them with Baby Mario, as seen in the E3 demo version.
  • Original box art of Yoshi's Island DS. Notice the name (Yoshi's Island 2) and this box art's Wi-Fi logo; Wi-Fi compatibility was later canned in the game.

Unused data

Although never used in the game, graphics for Baby Wario and Baby Bowser Character Coins exist[1]. Similarly, graphics exist for at least two different title screens[2], and at least one of them was entirely complete when it was scrapped. It's also worth noting that all were static images, unlike the final game's rotating shot. Two of the scrapped title screens have a Yoshi's Island 2 logo.


  • The two unused baby coins. Their graphics were found in the ROM, entirely complete.

  • The unused title screen. Notice the resemblance it has to the Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island's title screen.
