Yoshi's Island should be explored here, and may be the best location that is in danger of an attack. Let's bump up that female representation and give Luigi his girlfriend. I also think we need to bring Daisy into the mix here. After all, we do need some time to focus on Yoshi, so DK could get in the way of that. Our core cast has to return (ie, Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad and Bowser ideally with at least a cameo from Donkey Kong, but I wouldn't be opposed to him taking a back seat in favor of his own film).
