But while most of these characters look like Easter eggs, Yoshi appears to be a major part of the plot. We see Toad's reaction to a dinosaur randomly joining the team, and the teaser ends with Yoshi (now babysitting Baby Mario and Baby Luigi) facing off against an actual dinosaur, presumably a nod to Super Mario Odyssey. We don't know how that will end up, but the two clearly aren't part of the same species.

After a quick teaser during the September Nintendo Direct, a new trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy movie has been revealed. The sequel to The Super Mario Bros. Movie is scheduled to be released on April 3, 2026, and it once again features the vocal talents of the 2023 film's cast, including Chris Pratt as Mario, Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Peach, Charlie Day as Luigi, and Jack Black as Bowser.

The livestream will be available Wednesday, November 12, at 9:00 a.m. ET for the special Nintendo Direct. "Please note that no game information will be included in this presentation," the company cautioned. Still, that gives us the rest of the day to wrap our minds around whichever new stars have been cast to bring the latest trip back to the Mushroom Kingdom to life.

While we still await the first trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, an unlikely source has provided a great look at Yoshi in the sequel. A Pillsbury box showcases the green dinosaur alongside Mario as part of a promotional collaboration for the film. Tops Friendly Markets, a supermarket chain in the northeastern US, listed the Pillsbury sugar cookies shaped like Yoshi eggs over the weekend.

With the holiday season fast approaching, now is a good time to start grabbing a few affordable stocking stuffers or party favors. And if you have a Super Mario fan on your shopping list, you may want to check out this mystery box of Yoshi toys before Amazon sells out. Amazon is selling a 12-pack of TOMY Yoshi Wind-Up Figures--with the box included--for only $24.41.

Nintendo is dropping a slew of Mario-related announcements this morning as part of the franchise's 40th anniversary, including a new game starring his dinosaur companion. Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is coming out for Switch 2 in the Spring of 2026 and the brief bit of gameplay we saw plants it squarely in the cutesy yet intriguing tradition of past Yoshi platformers.
