Yoshi's Safari is a video game made for the Super Nintendo in 1993. In this game Mario and Yoshi have to save King Fret and his son Prince Pine of Jewelery Land from King Bowser Koopa and his Koopalings. Unlike most Mario games, it is a rail-gun shooter, with support for the Super Scope light gun.
In the game, Yoshi's head is always visible, and shooting at it causes a loss of health. The super scope could fire automatically, which quickly drained power, collecting fire flowers increased the amount of time that the scope could shoot before recharging.
Although not a regular Mario game, there are a few milestones to be found here. For one thing, this is the first game where Princess Peach is referred to by that name in the US release, predating even Super Mario 64 (which most fans seem to associate the milestone with). This game also marked the last appearance of the Koopalings until Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga, released ten years later.
