Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island is a 2D platforming game starring Yoshi and based on the Super Mario platforming games. In North America, the game was named to appear to be a sequel to Super Mario World. After several puzzle games starring Yoshi, this is the first platforming game in the Yoshi series, and was followed upon by Yoshi's Island DS and Yoshi's New Island. Yoshi's Island is one of three completed games to use the Super FX 2 chip, which allowed for more advanced 3D graphics, larger sprites, and more advanced graphical effects.
