So wait.... if "Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island" (SNES) was the child of "Yoshi" NES.... but Yoshi was born from Super Mario World..... does that mean SMW had sex with it's child in order to make SMW2?

LOL yeah that was one of a couple things that bugged me about the "tree" cuz I thought that Yoshi's Island should be part of the direct line of Mario games, I mean it's not like "Yoshi" on NES was the first Yoshi game, it was a spin-off!

Edit: Nvm, I see that the timeline connecting all the Yoshi games goes back to SMW, which is true since it also spawned all the other NES and SNES games that used its graphics, themes and sprites like Mario Paint, Mario's Missing, Mario's Time Machine etc, so yeah disregard what I originally said lol.

The other thing that bugged me was the fact that they stuck Mario RPG way off to the side and lumped it in with all the random Mario games like the "educational" titles, but then they failed to connect it with it's proper lineage like Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi RPG games.
