User blog comment:The RPG Gamer/Why Mario Is NOT Mental Part 1/@comment-30105035-20171111203415

Okay so one section of the Yoshi part was confirmed to be true by Nintendo. Mario is punching him but still, that's only 1/25 points proven right and it was a minor one too. There are still 24 other ones that are wrong. Also, some backup evidence Luigi, and the Toads also whack Yoshi on the head as well to make him stick out his tongue so it's not just Mario.

Also another thing I forgot to mention is that if Mario was dropping Yoshi of a pit in a cutscene or a scripted event, it would be canon and Yoshi would be dead (forever) but Yoshi still appears in new Mario games and Mario Party and Mario Kart alive and well...
