Yoshi's Island Roulette
Yellow Yoshi after flipping the Kamek card in the Bonus Challenge Flip Cards in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. Bonus Challenges are Bonus Games in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, its remake, and Yoshi's Island DS. When a Yoshi reaches the goal roulette and the roulette lands on a flower, then a Bonus Challenge can be instantly played. In the original Yoshi's Island, a specific Bonus Challenge can also be unlocked and played anytime after getting 800 points in a world; in the later two games, they can be accessed after getting 700 points in a world. The list of Bonus Challenges are below. In Yoshi's Island and its remake, the Bonus Challenges available after getting a flower at the goal roulette depends on the world currently being played, as follows:
Trivia[edit]
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
When originally announced at E3 2006, Yoshi's Island DS was tentatively titled Yoshi's Island 2.The game's early box art also featured a Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection logo, implying that this game was at one point going to have Wi-Fi features that were scrapped before the final version was released. The Goal Ring, also called the goal roulette or GOAL! Ring, is a ring found in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3, Yoshi's Island DS, Yoshi's New Island, Yoshi's Woolly World and Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World. It is found at the end of every level, acting as the goal point. The Goal Ring is a circle consisting of all the flowers the player collected. When getting a Big Egg (as in World 2-7), you can carry it to another level. Go to the Goal Ring and past it to the right side of the screen. Aim the Big Egg straight up, launch it, then lick it. Bonus 5: Roulette. In this bonus challenge, you have two roulette wheels to spin. The wheel on the left contains eight + signs and six × signs, meaning the number of lives you'll win will be either added to your total or multiplied. The wheel on the right contains numbers: seven 0's, four 1's, two 2's, and a single 3.

(3) THE STORY
This story happened a long long time ago...
This is a story about a baby and Yoshi...
A stork hurries across the dusky, pre-dawn sky. In his bill, he
supports a pair of twins who are to be delivered to their parents as
soon as possible.
Suddenly, something appears between the clouds and races towards the
stork with blinding speed!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
(4)
“SSCCRREEEEECH!!!”, it screams. “These babies are mine!”
Snatching only one baby, the creature vanishes into the darkness from
whence it came.
Oh no! The second baby falls undetected towards the open sea...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
(5)
The kidnapper is Kamek, an evil Magikoopa from the Koopa Kingdom.
Having divined last night that twin babies born this morning will bring
disaster to the Koopa family, he arranged for an early morning ambush.
Returning to his castle, Kamek realizes that he missed the other baby.
He orders his toadies.
“Go forth and find the other baby!! Don’t let his parents get him
back! Ever!!”
Meanwhile, the second baby does not fall into the sea after all...it
lands safely on Yoshi’s back! And right after him drops a map!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
(6)
This paradise is Yoshi’s Island. And on this island lives lots of
different Yoshies. These Yoshies are naturally laid back and relaxed,
but this is a calamity and everyone is in a state of panic. As the
Yoshies frantically yell over each other, the baby insistently points
at something.
Yes! The baby can sense the other baby’s location. All the Yoshies
quickly agree to help carry the baby to its destination by using a
relay system not unlike the old pony express.
The Green Yoshi draws first honors.

(11) THE BASIC RULE
If you get struck baby Mario will fall off your back. Watch the timer!
To clear a Stage, jump through the GOAL! Ring, and pass baby Mario on
to the next Yoshi.
If baby Mario becomes separated from Yoshi, the Countdown Timer will
begin. You only have a short time to reunite Yoshi and baby Mario
before baby Mario is swept away by Kamek’s toadies.
Do not allow the Timer to reach 0...
HELPFUL TECHNIQUES
When baby Mario floats way up, you can hit him with an egg to bring him
closer. Additionally, Yoshi can hit him with his tongue by shooting
his tongue upwards.

from the beginning of the Stage.

(14) THE GOAL AND THE SCORE
It is difficult to get a perfect score of 100 points in any Stage. At
first your objective should be to simply clear the Stages.
