7 games that show Yoshi is the best Mario character

It's MAR10 day! But in the spirit of celebrating the quirky plumber who has given us so many amazing games over the years, I think we need to focus on the real star of the show. In November 1990 (1991 in the US), Nintendo fans were given a gift. Super Mario World hit the shelves and introduced perhaps one of the best, if not most adorable, video game characters of all time: Yoshi. This green dinosaur added a refreshing new game mechanic to the legendary platformer and became a fan-favorite character who would eventually star in the game's sequel (Prequel? I'm not sure; Nintendo timelines are weird.)
