I never realized you could do this in SMW

In Super Mario World, if you're riding Yoshi and you press Y (or X), Yoshi sticks out his tongue low to the ground (see the screenshot on the left).



However, if you press Y while holding Up on the Control Pad, Yoshi sticks out his tongue higher (see the screenshot on the right).

I first played Super Mario World when I was a tiny tot, but until this week, I wasn't aware you could do this. I have a friend who told me about this. She seemed to think this was common knowledge, but it's not in the manual and isn't mentioned in any of the guides I could find.

This could be one of those "everyone else knows this except me" moments, but either way, I'm surprised I never realized this!
