This is one of the most simply beautiful games I have laid my eyes on.

Cute overload!

 

[Metalmurphy]

TY!

 

[Hours Left]

This looks crazy amazing. A+

 

[Mojojo]

*save as*
Awesome, thanks kayhan.

 

[MikeE21286]

I get such an LBP vibe from this...looks great

 

[BorkBork]

See, this is how you avoid people complaining about the graphical limitations of your system- you make games that can look awesome FOREVER. Kirby is back

QFT. This will look just as gorgeous twenty years from now.

 

[SilverLunar]

holy shit this looks good

this better sell well.

Dude, it is Kirby.


At least one million copies.

 

[farnham]

Dude, it is Kirby.


At least one million copies.

in japan alone

people neglect the fact that kirby is a constant million seller in japan

 

[sfried]

Where's the INHALE? This isn't Klonoa damnit.

Looks fantastic otherwise.

Perhaps the reason why the world is threaded up: They took his mouth away!

Edit: Nope, looks like his mouth is intact, but can't inhale because he doesn't have mass.

 

[RPG_Fanatic]

The art style is pure bliss.
This game just oozes creativity.
I need this game as soon as possible.

 

[red shoe paul]

Buying it for my girlfriend and probably will play it more than her.

 

[Cosmozone]

The visually most impressive game from the conference. Looks great, but only one visual theme for a whole game isn't quite enough methinks.

 

[830920]

Wii has the least powerful hardware this generation but still manages to have some of the best looking games, all thanks to smart use of the system and amazing art; more horsepower just can't make up for that.

 

[GregLombardi]

This game was the most impressive game, on a gameplay level, that I have seen throughout all of E3. Fantastic fantastic.

But way too pink.

 

[ColonelColon]

Epic Yarn sounds like a variation on "cool story, bro"

 

[GhaleonQ]

So, you know how I whined like a bitch about how companies know how to use 2 kinds of animation and aren't tapping into the decades of animation innovation before them?

*taps Nintendo/Sora on shoulders* *zips up mouth*

Oh, and between yarn, crayon, sprites, ink, watercolor, and colored pencil, Kirby is now officially among the most interesting series of all-time, visually. Who'd have thought?

 

[harSon]

I'll definitely be purchasing a Wii within the coming months, Nintendo is currently on an amazing spree and I plan to join along for the ride. Zelda, Metroid, Donkey Kong Country and this... it all looks so god damned amazing.

Just don't forget the great stuff from the past from 3rd party developers. Nintendo's 1 for droughts, if you haven't noticed, so reward those who pushed through it.

 

[harriet the spy]

This is meant as a compliment, but there is a slight little big planet vibe from it (the feeling that a creative kid might have assembled the game itself). It's very cute
Big big hopes for that game.

 

[Big-ass Ramp]

this game looks sick. I gotta get a Wii.

 

[Mkliner]

This game just looks ridiculous. It's like someone took innocence and turned it into a video game

 

[rikichi]

i am very impressed with the visuals for this game.

glad to hear its coming out this year.

 

[Llyranor]

This is my game of the show. Love the artstyle. Love Kirby. Co-op <3

 

[POWERSPHERE]

Now THATS how Paper Mario should have looked like. Physical textures like a cut out playground, i've wanted something like this since Yoshis Story. Sweet.

 

[Soulstar]

God I love Kirby so much. Day One.

 

[TheUsual]

At first I was like "Huh?" with the art style, but that quickly turned into "HELL YES." The environment interaction with pulling that thread to pull parts together was awesome. Want this!

 

[Ken Masters]

this game almost makes me want to buy a Wii, make it $100 please

 

[Nemo]

Innovating 2D platformer

Anyone that's doing this gets my money, anyone.

 

[Kaako]

This looks sooo good. Love love love the art style.
Nintendo really surprised me with this baby.

 

[faceless007]

This game just looks ridiculous. It's like someone took innocence and turned it into a video game

That's a pretty awesome way of putting it.

 

[Brannon]

Look at this game.

Look at this god damned game.

How the hell does Nintendo keep doing this!?

[tim1138]

Absolute day one, this looks like its going to be well worth the wait.
I just can't get over how clean the graphics look, it's impressive why people can squeeze out of the Wii when they know how to work the system.

 

[sammy]

This is the coolest shit i've seen in a really damn long time. it warms my heart to see new ideas with 2d mechanics!!!

no words, should've sent a poet

 

[big_z]

nintendo is really embracing art style this year and it's paying off. the games this year look fantastic and this is the first time im excited to play a traditional kirby.

 

[Goldmund]

This game has me the most excited. I get a Yoshi's Island vibe from the level design, its dynamics -- so naïvely creative. The visuals are unique, too. Really, my favorite game of e3, so far.

 

[Salsa]

Day 1. Looks like the funest thing in the history of fun. Zippers!

 

[Prax]

I was dying of cute overload when I saw this.

I MUST have this game now!
Great style, great use of game mechanics from what I've seen, and KIRBY!

 

[Takao]

What a hideous name for such a beautiful game.

Spoiler

I did read the title as "Epic Yawn", and it felt like it would work in the Kirby universe.

wow, pretty shocked to see this control like NSMBWii (controller held sideways) I thought the swinging whip mechanics would mean a pointe style control with the wii remote.

interesting

Their videos never load for me.

 

[Sigmond]

What a hideous name for such a beautiful game.

Agreed. Should have been called "Epic Thread" instead.

 

[soldat7]

This is gorgeous. The only downside is it makes me y

Spoiler

e

arn for a Yoshi's Island remake...

 

[Kayhan]

Agreed. Should have been called "Epic Thread" instead.

:lol would have been awesome, actually

 

[Celsior]

So does this one have co-op, it seems like the clear thing in the later part of the trailer is your friend and kirby co-op is so good.

 

[UrbanRats]

Graphics are O-U-T-S-T-A-N-D-I-N-G-!-!-!

 

[McLovin]

I like the visuals, the gameplay looks fun too.

 

[Poyunch]

:lol would have been awesome, actually

At least it won't be difficult to think of a title for the OT when the time comes.

Amazing.

 

[The Technomancer]

So, did anyone else first think "Kirby: Epic Yarn, wow that sounds stupid" only to go "wait...its Kirby's Epic Yarn, oooooh, okay, thats much better"
