They've actually talked about that before, but I don't remember where, and they definitely didn't mention the Yoshi's Island part.

But I don't think Yoshi's Island significantly copied Plok. The former game was released 2 whole years before Yoshi's Island; in 1993 the game probably existed solely as design documents or concept art. The things that they have in common were in other platformers too, even the original SMB.If anything was pilfered from Plok, it was the instruments used in the soundtrack.

They seem to show up everywhere Plok is mentioned.

They also worked on another Nintendo game: Mario Artist: Paint Studio. It was originally going to be a 3D game where you could edit the textures on 3D models, their rotation/scale and even AI behavior. But Nintendo of Japan rejected most of their ideas.
