Shigeru Miyamoto wanted Mario to have a dinosaur companion ever since Super Mario Bros., but it wasn't thought to be possible at the time due to the technical limitations of the NES. He wanted to implement Yoshi in Super Mario Bros. 3, but again could not. Two power-ups were created to fill the gap - Raccoon Mario and Frog Mario. Co-worker Takashi Tezuka once speculated that Miyamoto's love of horse riding had influenced Yoshi's creation.
