Story
Intro and second cinematic: (Both Super CD and Super Game Boy variants have the exact same intro.)


 * Narrator: A long, long time ago... This is a story about Baby Mario and Yoshi. A stork hurries across the dusky, pre-dawn sky. In his bill, he supports a pair of twins. Suddenly, a shadow appears in a gap between the clouds and races towards the stork with blinding speed.
 * Kamek Sr.: "SCRREEEECH!!!"
 * Kamek Sr.: "THE BABIES ARE MINE!"
 * Narrator: WOW!!! Snatching only one baby, the creature vanishes into the darkness from whence it came. The second baby falls undetected towards the open sea... OH NO...
 * Meanwhile, here is Yoshi's Island, home to all Yoshies. It's a lovely day, and Yoshi is taking a walk. HUH?!? Suddenly, a baby drops in onto his back. The baby seems to be fine. This is very fortunate! Wha-? Something else fell with the baby... Let's take a peek... It looks like a map. Maybe the stork was using it? But Yoshi can't figure it out. Yoshi decides to talk to his friends.
 * Kamek Sr.: AAAAAAAAAAKK!!!
 * Narrator: Kamek Sr., the evil Magikoopa, and kidnapper of the baby, quickly dispatches his toadies, when he discovers that he missed the other baby!
 * Yoshi heads leisurely back to the other Yoshies, unaware of the danger at hand. Kamek Sr.'s forces are actively searching the island. Will these two children ever reach their parents safely?

Instruction Booklet Story:

The rest of the story: Throughout the journey, Baby Mario and the Yoshies fight off monsters altered by Kamek Sr. on their conquest to save Baby Luigi. Upon reaching the castle, it seems that Baby Bowser is the one behind the kidnapping, but it turns out that he was brainwashed and that Kamek Sr. himself is the one behind it all for his divination noted not only 2 heroes, but 3 that ensure his defeat. Wanting to become the king of the Koopas, he initiated the attack on the stork and placed Baby Bowser under his spell. As a last resort, he enlarges himself for the final battle, but the young Koopa King and a younger Kamek allies with the Green Yoshi and Baby Mario. After the sorcerer's defeat, Baby Luigi and the stork are saved. Just before they leave, the young Kamek promises to raise Baby Bowser the proper way. Afterwards, the stork takes the Baby Mario Bros. and resumes their delivery, which ends at the Mushroom Kingdom. After the credits of Yoshi's Island Deluxe, it shows a younger Magikamek pushing the unconscious Kamek Sr. on a wheelcart, swearing he'll get revenge.
 * This story happened a 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!
 * "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...
 * The kidnapper is Kamek Sr., 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 Sr. realizes that he missed the other baby. He orders his toadies.
 * "Go forth and find that 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!!
 * 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 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.

Gameplay
Gameplay is 2D platforming. Pressing Y lets Yoshi eat enemies, ducking with an enemy in the mouth makes eggs (total of 6), pressing Y again with the enemy makes Yoshi spit it out, pressing A prepares an egg to be launched (with a target system, can be canceled by ducking), L and R while an egg is prepared lock on a specific angle, A again throws the egg, holding B midair lets Yoshi flutter jump, Up and Down on the d-pad moves the camera in the respective direction while Yoshi looks up or ducks, and pressing Down in midair enables a ground pound. Each level changes between different Yoshis who carry Baby Mario. If they get hit, the baby is encased in a bubble while crying and a countdown begins, where the player must get him back before the timer runs out, which then shows the Toadies taking Baby Mario away, losing a life. The timer refills up to 10, but it can be extended by stars and Middle Rings (10 points per ring, acts as checkpoints).

Powerups and Items:
Some of the items are hidden in crates and pots. The following can only be attained through minigames and can only be used once from the pause menu:
 * Helicopter Yoshi Transformation: Fly with the d-pad. Hit the Yoshi Block before time runs out to progress.
 * Mole Tank Yoshi Transformation: Dig through certain dirt with the d-pad. Hit the Yoshi Block before time runs out to progress.
 * Submarine Yoshi Transformation: Move underwater with the d-pad and shoot torpedoes with the Y button. Hit the Yoshi Block before time runs out to progress.
 * Train Yoshi Transformation: Move with the d-pad, press up when near a train track painting to enter the track and reach new areas, which also gives you the ability to boost via Y or B to outrun the menaces in the walls. Hit the Yoshi Block before time runs out to progress.
 * Car Yoshi Transformation: Speed away with the d-pad and raise yourself with B to avoid enemy contact. Hit the Yoshi Block before time runs out to progress.
 * Powerful Mario: When a Super Star is touched, the current Yoshi is encased in an egg while Baby Mario gains a cape, invincibility, and the abilities to run on walls and glide with said cape. Collecting more Super Stars extends the transformation's duration.
 * Ski Yoshi: In certain snow levels, entering a house lets Yoshi acquire skiing gear to ski down mountains while Baby Mario dons a winter cap. Jump when there are certain ramps and hills as well as obstacles.
 * Snowball Yoshi: Failing to jump at certain points as Ski Yoshi encases them and Baby Mario in a snowball, which grants invincibility at the cost of being unable to control them or jump for a short time.
 * Melons: Green lets Yoshi shoot seeds, red lets them breathe fire, and blue lets them breathe freezing ice.
 * Stars: Gives Yoshi extra time to retrieve Baby Mario. One second and point per star. All enemies onscreen turn into stars if the Middle Ring is touched. When the timer is full, extra stars are changed to coins.
 * Smiley Flowers: 5 are hidden in each level, with each worth 10 points. Collecting all 5 gives an extra life.
 * Red Coins: 20 are hidden in each level. One point per coin.
 * POW Block: Defeats all enemies by turning them into stars. Can be used thrice.
 * Post: Ground pound to reveal secrets.
 * Key: Can be used to unlock doors.
 * Chomp Rock: A boulder that acts as a platform and can be pushed by Yoshi. When it rolls down slopes, it can defeat enemies by running over them. Gray ones go back to their origin when offscreen while brown ones stay.
 * Winged Cloud: Hit them with an egg or enemy to trigger an event or get stars.
 * Spinning Wheel: Can be ridden on, but the direction it goes is where its arrow was last pointing before Yoshi stepped on it. Blue ones return to their point of origin if left alone while tan ones only return offscreen.
 * Snowball: Similar to a Chomp Rock, but gets bigger the more its rolled.
 * Tulip: Spits out 8 stars when an egg, spat-out enemy, or shell enters it. Afterwards, it disappears.
 * Egg Block: Green ones produce eggs while others turn into eggs.
 * Eggs: Used as Yoshi's weapon. Green ones bounce twice, becoming yellow then red. Yellow ones yield a coin when they hit an enemy. Red ones yield 2 stars. Flashing Eggs are rare and yield a Red Coin when they hit an enemy. Giant Eggs are attained from eating huge enemies and when thrown, they cause a shockwave that defeats all enemies to make up for being thrown over a short distance.


 * X-Point Star: Increases the timer. 10 second and 20 second variants.
 * Anytime Egg: Maxes out Yoshi's egg count.
 * Anywhere POW: Acts like a POW Block, but turns all enemies to stars and can only be used once.
 * Anywhere Cloud Maker: Turns all enemies into Winged Clouds.
 * Super Watermelon: Gives Yoshi either a green, red, or blue watermelon, depending on the item used.

(Beating a level with all 5 Flowers, all 20 Red Coins, and with a full health of 30 results into a 100% score.)

 * Bullet Bills (This time, they're green. Yellow ones can bounce off walls they touch and are known as the Bouncing variant.)

Those that wear green are Green Gloves and use mitts to catch eggs to throw back at the player while those that wear yellow are Sluggers and use baseball bats to deflect eggs, seeds, and Chomp Rocks.
