Yoshi's New Island revisits the Super Mario World 2 formula with big eggs and pastel stages. Cute art direction, weaker level design and a divisive soundtrack. A lukewarm sequel for nostalgic fans.

Description
Yoshi's New Island 2D platformer with egg throwing. Published by Nintendo, released in 2014. Seven worlds, 40+ levels, watercolor aesthetics, classic Yoshi storyline. Released in Japan, Taiwan, North America and Europe.
Taiwanese edition of Yoshi's New Island, a regional variant locked to the corresponding Asian zone. The Taiwanese 3DS market received a limited catalogue, making this localization uncommon and distinct from the Japanese and Western versions in the eyes of zone collectors. Its interest rests on this territorial specificity rather than the content, common to all regions.
