Development
According to director Hiroyuki Kimura and designer Keizo Ohta, Yoshi Touch & Go was originally planned to be designed for the Nintendo GameCube as "Balloon Trip". A demo of the game was first exhibited during the E³ of 2004 and gained positive response. Thereupon, the executives of Nintendo green lighted the project. Shigeru Miyamoto considered that the game would create a bigger impact as a DS title.
Yoshi Touch & Go was produced by Takashi Tezuka and director by Hiroyuki Kimura. The game's musical score was created by Kazumi Totaka, Asuka Ota and Toru Minegishi. Baby Mario and Baby Luigi were voiced by Charles Martinet while the voice-over of the Yoshis was done by Totaka, including the 19-note song he did.

Famous quotes containing the word development:
“The experience of a sense of guilt for wrong-doing is necessary for the development of self-control.

I am filled with wonder of her knowledge, acquired because shut out from all distraction. If I could have been deaf, dumb, and blind I also might have arrived at something.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“I can see ... only one safe rule for the historian: that he should recognize in the development of human destinies the play of the contingent and the unforeseen.”
