For your information CashCrazed, Yoshi's Island was one of the most beautiful and technically astonishing games on the Super Nintendo (aside from the Donkey Kong Country games...). Yoshi's Island used the Super FX chip (which was built into the cartridge), which allowed for some pretty spectacular tranparancy effects and "morphing" effects...the chip also enhanced the graphics engine a bit (much like the Expansion Pak on the Nintendo 64). The graphics still retain that "cutsey" look that previous Mario/Yoshi games had, only they're a lot more detailed and even more cutsey!
Yoshi's Island will be a great technological achievement if Nintnedo can manage to port the entire game onto a tiny GameBoy Advance cart.
Super Mario World must've been hard enough, since it basically used up most of the memory that GameBoy Advance carts can hold!
(I can't wait for Metroid on GameBoy Advance!)

"Bwa ha ha! Guess who it is, loyal Mario fans...
It is I, King Bowser... ruler of all Koopas, big and small. I have come to take over the Mushroom Kingdom (no, not the place...I mean the WEB SITE!)! Deezer, you will surrender your troops to me, or else you will never see your precious Mario again! Bwa ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
