The Japanese packaging uses a vertical design, which is pretty normal for a Japanese Super NES game. As for the artwork, the Japanese version has more of a laid-back feel, while the U.S. Box features Yoshi and Baby Mario rushing towards a Nep-Enut.

Yoshi's Island Huffin Puffins

  • Fridge Horror - When you get eaten by a Blurp in 'Jungle Puddle,' you don't see Bowser's Toadies take you away right away. After the screen fades to black though, you get the regular screen showing your Yoshi crying as it's taken into the castle. How did they get the Yoshi out of the Blurp?
    • The boss of the Cloud Cruising level is a giant ball of what appears to be cotton candy named Cloud N. Candy. As you fight the boss, the happy poofy clouds and the big smile on the boss's face distract you from the fact that you are eating him alive.
      • To be fair, that's basically what you do to most enemies in the game, granted this is a bit more drawn out, but at least Cloud 'n' Candy is never turned into an egg that is then used to destroy a fellow enemy.
  • Fridge Horror - The Bowser battle. In Yoshi's Island, it's justified because he'd grown exponentially large and powerful, but here, you're just fighting...him. He throws Bob-Ombs, but you can throw them back. He breathes fire, but you're too far from him to not see it coming. He tries to pound you into the ground ala Yoshi's Island, but it's easily dodged. And you're throwing live bombs and exploding eggs at him. His only protection is the series of ghosts he rides on, and even then, you can knock spikes down from the ceiling that can nail him in the head. When the ghosts disappear, obviously, you're not letting thebastardmove. Need I remind you he's still an infant?

    • Come to think of it, where did the ghosts come from?...
    • The Yoshis are newly hatched, so isn't this infant on infant violence? Where are the adults?!
  • Huffin Puffinn provides you with her own children as boomerangs... that is disturbing on its own. But there's also the fact that Yoshi growls at her when she's near, and Yoshis only growl at enemies. What's the deal with Huffin Puffin?
