People like maps, it seems.

every game is better with a map!

I used to read maps for fun.

Hey, the original poster can put these images up on the main post.  Found them on Mario Wiki, but no idea where they got them because I've seen no other place that snagged these specific scans from the Game Informer leak.  One of them shows Mii Characters in the backgrounds, andother shows the Yoshi bushes from SMW, and another shows Mario using the Ice Flower in Castle level (a non-lava Castle)

Just drag the pics into the posts (in rich text reply mode), better that way! :)

They look great! Curious about that orange bar in Boost Rush and the Miis in the background!

Take the overworld map, the Yoshis and the world map from Super Mario World; and add it to the excellent level design, challenge, spirit, and diversity of Super Mario 3 - and throw in all sorts of new improvements from Mario Galaxy 2 - and this will be the ultimate Mario game.

Does anyone knows if baby yoshi still eats everything on in front of him? I don't think I've seen it doing that yet, and that pic with lots of pirana plants cold really use one hungry yellow baby yoshi.

I don't think he'll grow up anymore, but using him as a vacuum cleaner in the level might be fun.

BTW... green baby yoshi was useless (I don't it even existed for more than 1 second too), but where is red baby yoshi? Pink looks cool and all, but we need a fire powered Yoshi! Hmm, maybe not... Fire Yoshi destroyed every  single usefull shell... blue yoshi broked the game... yellow yoshi was kinda useless too...

Maybe it's a good idea if they stay small.

im not gonna buy this game because of this spoiler! it ruined it for me

To me, the pic with the baby yoshi in front of all those lined up piranha plants definitely does indicate that they eat whatever they bump into.  And yes, I think they will automatically grow up after 5 or so gulps of enemies.

I'm hoping that nintendo learned from the SMW cape, in that it broke the game too much by bypassing all level design.  With this in mind perhaps they won't do another blue yoshi type thing.  We've seen pink yoshis in other videos inflating like balloons to help with floating.  We should keep in mind that most of what we have seen up to this point (perhaps excluding these game informer pics) will end up as past beta images.  Who knows what color yoshis will end up being available.

I hope they bring back the koopa with the flashing multi color shell though!

I still do.
