How do I use Tumblr

Clay models of a variety of creatures from Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, used during the game's development for conceptualization purposes. This photo was shared in a 2026 issue of the Nintendo Dream magazine.

funny enough this topic came up in my discord server this morning frye has 2 kinds of eels: real ones, that can use ink but aren't ink-based (like master mega, the salmonids, and big man), and 'fake' eels that are purely ink-based. The real eels have black eye masks and are the ones seen swimming in the water.

The 'fake' ink-based eels have no eye mask. in the cutscene at the end of ROTM, it's a horde of only these fake eels that morph into a tornado of ink.

in frye's boss fight, the 'fake' eels poof into nothing when shot, while the real ones don't disappear like that and get flung back at her.

Previously, I have posted about a mysterious screenshot published on the IGN forums in 2000 claiming to be a preview of a Yoshi game for the Game Boy Advance. While being unrealistic in terms of the smoothness of the graphics and usage of dynamic shadows, it was claimed to be sent in by "a Japanese correspondent".

It has been discovered that the image was in fact taken from a mock-up in an issue of the Japanese Famitsu 64 magazine that was only recently scanned. While it was generally assumed that the picture was fake to begin with, this is finally definitive proof that it was never official.

At E3 2003, an official Jimmy T cosplayer took pictures with visitors at the Nintendo booth and gave out in-universe business cards.
