Two words: Yoshis's Story (no pun intended)

Furthermore, I am pretty sure Yoshidasan has discussed jumping in one of the LIVE producer letters in which he explains that jumping on mounts is highly unlikely to be implemented. If I knew just where to look I would post the Link, but alas the videos tend to be lengthy (one or two hours) and I am not interested in spending that much time searching for this.
