Why does Yoshi look like that in Wonder

Everytime I look at him I feel... disturbed. This is not the Yoshi I know. What did they do to him.
 
He resembles how he looked in early Mario games before the GameCube redesign.
 
Slimmer body and half lidded eyes, if you look at them side by side you'll notice it
 
One of my issues with Wonder's Yoshi is I don't like how far his eyelids are protruding away from his eyeballs. This was a thing before Wonder but it's more pronounced than ever, and it just looks uncanny.

Maybe once I play Wonder my opinion will change but yeah not a fan.
 
@Jack Frost LOL he looks like he's made of shiny plastic. I don't dislike how he looks in Wonder but he does look a bit....strange.
 
The whole Yoshi front-view thing is so weird. Can he even see with that nose?
I would say yeah he can see, because his eyes go above it (the nose). But you can't see as much of his face that way. I just think from the side you can see much more of his head. Like you can see the nose, and his eyes and his cheeks and stuff, and his mouth, too.
 
Another reason why front-facing Yoshi sucks is that you can't see his mouth. That's one of the ways Yoshi expresses himself. But you can't see it when he's facing forwards so he looks so soulless.
