Fired this up on the Switch first thing and it's even better looking and sounding than I remembered

Talk about a timeless game

I don't even count it as a Mario, tbh

it's the first game in the Yoshi (platforming) series

I think Mario 3 is the only one better. Yoshi's Island is sick though, man. Loved it so much I wrote a book about it!

Good stuff. Also my #2 Mario game behind SMB3 and the third best 2D platformer behind SMB3 and DKC2.

I didn't realize this was a hot take

To me Mario is about powerups and dying if you get hit if you're small. Yoshi is about retrieving baby mario, flutter jumping and ricocheting eggs.

This argument came up here before and someone pointed out that it actually isn't considered a Mario game as far as the mainline series goes, even Nintendo has said so.
Still, I refuse to honor that since it's truly the best, the Galaxy games are a very close 2nd place

Even if Yoshi's Island did count as a Mario game, it would still be middle of the road.

It's very clearly not a Mario game, the design of the two have nothing to do with each other.

Nintendo has never said this. In fact they have said the opposite. Suck it Yoshi haters.

so yes it is a branching point that launches the yoshi spinoff series but it is still a mario game lol

Its about as much of a Mario game as the first Mana game is a Final Fantasy game.

When we first made Yoshi's Island, we considered it part of the Mario series. After that, the Yoshi series continued on its own. As developers, do we consider it to be part of the core Mario series? The answer is yes. - Miyamoto

Well hot damn. @LeonhartFour
