One of Nintendo’s Most Beloved Characters Debuted 35 Years Ago Today (And Their Next Game Is Coming Soon)

It might surprise you to learn that Yoshi didn’t appear in a Nintendo game until Super Mario World in 1990. This fifth game in the Super Mario series introduced the charming green dinosaur to players for the very first time. Released on November 21st, 1990 for the Super Nintendo, Super Mario World allowed the world to meet Yoshi. Interestingly, his original appearance was quite different from the version we know today, the one who would go on to star in his own fun Mario spin-off games. Now, as we celebrate Yoshi’s 35th birthday, let’s take a look back at the history of this beloved Nintendo character.
