Note how it's on the actual game cover. The American release probably just had their own translation of ヨッシー. シ can be romanized a few different ways if you didn't know. C for example (http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/BLOOD-C) The point is, it's not a "romaji" reading. It's the first official reading...

If it was "brute-force romaji", the title would now have been "Yosshy".
