Yoshi is a popular video game character created by Nintendo.

He has appeared in many games for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES), Nintendo 64, GameCube, Wii, and other consoles.

Yoshi is a dinosaur-like creature who first appeared in Super Mario World for the SNES in 1990.

He has since become one of the most recognizable characters in video gaming.

Yoshi's appearance is often described as a green dinosaur with large eyes and an orange saddle on his back.

His name comes from the Japanese word "yōshi," which means good luck or fortune.

Yoshi can also change color depending on which powerup he eats; for example, eating a red powerup will turn him red.

Yoshi's main ability is to eat enemies and items with his long tongue and turn them into eggs that can be used to defeat enemies or collect coins and other items.

Yoshi also has the ability to jump very high, allowing him to reach places that Mario cannot reach alone.

Additionally, he can float in midair by flapping his arms like wings and use his tail to attack enemies from behind.

Yoshi also appears as a playable character in many Mario spin-off games such as Mario Kart and various sports titles like Mario Golf and Mario Tennis.

In some of these games, Yoshi has special abilities unique to him; for example, in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, he can perform tricks while driving karts similar to stunt planes seen in other racing games.

Besides appearing as a playable character, Yoshi also makes cameo appearances throughout various other Mario titles like Super Smash Bros., where he acts as an assist character that helps players out during battles; or even party games like Super Mario Party where he participates alongside other characters such as Toads or Princess Peach.

Despite being one of Nintendo's oldest characters having first appeared almost 30 years ago, Yoshi remains one of its most beloved characters today due to his friendly personality and unique abilities that make him stand out among all the other characters within the world of gaming.

Whether it's eating enemies with his long tongue or floating around with his wings, there are few things more fun than playing as Yoshi!
