Features:

Yoshi's New Island keeps the series' fun game-play mechanics, such as Yoshi's Flutter Jump, Ground Pound and Egg Throw, while also offering new abilities. For example, use the giant-sized Mega Eggs to destroy objects, obtain coins and reveal hidden doors.
Using the Nintendo 3DS system's gyro sensor functionality and the new binocular ability, players can move the system around to uncover hidden areas as well as better aim Mega Egg throws.
Throughout the game, different worlds feature a variety of art styles, including oil, watercolor and crayon.
