I know that Yoshi couldn't have survived a secret level very long before running out of fruit and that they would screw with the difficulty but it's not that hard to add a "Secret Course Bongos" music option, or is it now, Nintendo(n't)? Huh? HUH??????? *HUH??????!?!?!?!??!*
Interestingly despite not appearing in them, several Secret Stages are only accessible with Yoshi, and one is entirely Yoshi Island themed. It's (IMO) likely, that Yoshi was planned to appear in these stages but for whatever reason was cut. To be more specific "The Yoshi-Go-Round's Secret" is the most blatant example of this trend. Perhaps since a secret stage with yoshi would most likely require several yoshi eggs, as well as a hefty supply of fruit, they decided to abandon the idea for hardware reasons? Also of note, the various color of yoshi each generate a unique form of platform. This mechanic generally goes unused in the game since only one Shine REQUIRES a specific kind of platform (the fruit festival at ricco) to be accessible. I believe this mechanic would've been used as the gimmick in a Yoshi themed secret area.
I've had an idea for a long time about how a Secret Stage featuring Yoshi could possibly work. When you start, there will be a Yoshi egg and a fruit machine like the one in Ricco Harbor. You'll have to Ground Pound the buttons on top of the machine until you get whichever fruit Yoshi wants. Bring the fruit over to the egg to hatch him. Once you've hatched Yoshi, mount him and move forward to the first station, where there will be two trees; one with pineapples and one with papayas, either of which will turn Yoshi orange. You might get lucky if Yoshi is already orange, but if not, you'll need to either spray the tree until the fruit falls off, or try and jump high enough so that Yoshi can snag the fruit with his tongue. Once Yoshi is orange, you'll make your way forward to the first obstacle; a bunch of Flyin' Stus flying in different directions. You'll spray them with juice to turn them into platforms, making sure that you time it so you can easily get to the next platform without falling off, or before the previous platform disappears. You'll have to do this several times, as the orange platforms remain stationary. Eventually you'll reach the next station where you'll find two more trees, one with coconuts and one with bananas. Eat either of these to turn Yoshi pink. You'll make your way to the next obstacle; there will be a single Flyin' Stu that you'll have to spray to turn it into a pink platform. The pink platforms will start floating upwards after a few seconds, so you'll have to get to it before it starts to rise. You will reach the next obstacle right before the platform disappears, so you'll have to make sure to get off the platform before it does, get off the platform before it disappears (you'll have to use a Flutter Jump). The next obstacle is a large pool of water. You'll have to Flutter Jump over it to reach the other side. There will not be a whole lot of room in order to gain enough momentum to make the jump, but it can be done. If you land in the water, Yoshi will disappear and you'll have no choice but to start over. But if you make it to the other side, you'll reach the next station. This time there will be a single durian on the ground. Eat it to turn Yoshi purple, then make your way over to the next obstacle; two more Flyin' Stus which will be flying in opposite directions. Spray the nearest one to turn it into a purple platform. The purple platforms move forward. Get onto the platform before it starts moving. You will reach the second Stu right as the platform begins flashing. If you've timed everything correctly, you'll be able to spray the Stu and get onto the platform without too much effort. If not, you'll probably not be able to make it in time. You'll then reach the final obstacle. There will be a wall with a hole in it, which will be blocked off with that orange goop that you'll need to spray with juice in order to get it to disappear. You'll have to do a Flutter Jump in order to reach the hole. Once you've sprayed away the goop, do another Flutter Jump to jump through the hole. Once you're at the other side, you'll see the Shine Sprite in the distance, but there's a gap that you'll have to cross in order to get to it. Do one final Flutter Jump; again, you won't have very much room to gain momentum, but it can be done. If you're successful, you'll reach the Shine Sprite!
I know the description says yoshi is required for 2 special stages, but isn't it 3? -"The Yoshi-Go-Round's Secret" -"Secret of the Village Underside" -"Lily Pad Ride" Not trying to be pretentious just thought I should bring it up.
While yes although the Lily Pad ride is by definition a secret course, it doesn't fit the same style and aesthetic of the actual secret courses (No FLUDD, spacey background, and most notably, this track (albeit without the drums))
Multiple reasons but ultimately I think it could have been to fine tune the difficulty. These stages are meant to be difficult as its a return to classic Mario platforming without FLUDD and Yoshi just breaks any challenge with his float and crazy jump height
Gotta say that for this particular track, the drum beats kinda ruin the whole acapella vibe. Then again there's an acapella metal band called Van Canto; they have a drummer who plays actual drums, but all the other "instruments" are vocalized.
The drumming pattern is the same one they used for Gelato Beach. They probably wanted to cut some corners to avoid having to create a new pattern.
or this was never even decided to be unused and the video owner claimed it to be lol
@@t3ns1l84its a great fan remix lol
Okay, this means they at least considered having versions of the secret levels that required yoshi, and i must say, i wouldve loved that
I wish this was in the final game. :(
There’s a similar unused track with yoshi drums in noki bay
Fun fact: the reason this is unused is because the secret course music is presumably played by piantas so Nintendo figured it didn't make sense
Well, i always liked it ^-^ sadly, its not used :(
I always wonder how the stages would look like if you've to amount yoshi
BetaMelody same here.. i kinda had an idea of how it could have looked like.. but yea.. i still have no idea about this
Super Mario Sunshine Beta? xd

Uh yes?
It's a weird name for RUclips.
The most mysterious Beta of all time. Super Mario Sunshine is my favorite game too.

I can see why this went unused. The drums are louder than the rest of the song combined...
Could probably mod this in the level with yoshi

Put a fruit dispensing machine in the level
@@tehoneandonlyyy4074 Like from Ricco? Yeah I guess that'd work
