Future Shop:

I know it's placeholder text, but it comes across as very fake.

They wouldn't tout "glorious HD" like that.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

It is not a Yoshi's Island game. It's called Yoshi's LAND.

I too was wondering what people are reading lol

 

[Exterminieren]

Future Shop:

While that's generic as hell, I'm pretty close to being convinced that this listing is legit now. I highly doubt that Best Buy would make up info for a title that doesn't exist.

 

[Pharros]

Future Shop:

Wow, even a description. I am intrigued.

 

[Kerub]

Assuming this is a new game, please no:

1) Fucking New Super Mario Bros presentation. I'll vomit fire if "bah" moves to non-NSMB games.

2) Fucking Artoon. Ruined YS DS.

New Super Metroid?

 

[GimMick]

Shit just got real !

 

[Hero]

If this turns out to be a Yoshi's Island game and it's more like the original than the DS one then I'm all for it. Yoshi's Island is one of my favorite games ever.

 

[HAL_Laboratory]

Why exactly are people excited about a possible new Yoshi's Island? There hasn't been a good one since the original.

It's not Yoshi's Island.

 

[Tenki]

Future Shop:

I get something different.

Join everyone's favourite dinosaur in his first big starring role on Nintendo Wii U - Yoshi's Land. Utilise the power of the Wii U Touchscreen GamePad to enjoy dual-screen fun in this epic adventure with stunning HD graphics and connectivity with the MiiVerse.

why would a store go through the trouble of writing up a description if they didn't know for sure the game exists?

 

[Secret Fawful]

Ohhh, Nintendo would.

 

[Exterminieren]

Best Buy's got the same description.

 

[Barrel Cannon]

E3 Comes and game turns out to be a direct sequel of Yoshi's Story instead

 

[Kjellson]

Didn't the miiverse leak suggest that Nintendo was going to make some announcements December 10th?

What have I missed?

 

[Why would you do that?]

I hope Retro's working on it.

Wow, day one. Retro could totally do it, with their DKC experience.

Now I hope Nintendo trusts Retro to make more than one game at a time

Just to dampen things a little, didn't everyone hate Yoshi's Island 2 on DS for some reason?

The music. The horrible music. I mentioned before, but when I first played the game at a demo station with no sound, I really enjoyed it, but then I played the game at home, it was the most depressing thing...

 

[Anth0ny]

Future Shop:

bahahahaha

most placeholder description i've ever seen

 

[Meelow]

Didn't the miiverse leak suggest that Nintendo was going to make some announcements December 10th?

Wait what?

 

[Secret Fawful]

E3 Comes and game turns out to be a direct sequel of Yoshi's Story instead

And I would be okay with that.

 

[ffdgh]

But yoshi with a galaxy look and physics couldn't possibly be bad.

 

[brandonh83]

Imagine Yoshi's Story but full of singing baby Yoshis. Sounds like an excellent horror film idea.

 

[kittens]

New Super Metroid?

I would buy a Wii U without hesitation if a Yoshi's Island spiritual successor and a Super Metroid sequel were announced.

E3 Comes and game turns out to be a direct sequel of Yoshi's Story instead

This made me actually cringe IRL.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

hope they did not get this from GAF

I'll like to see a nice art styled Yoshi game fully featured if true

 

[chaosblade]

Assuming this actually exists, it's probably what Good Feel is working on.

Yep, thinking the same thing. They seem like a good fit for it.

 

[Lord_Byron28]

3D platformer developed by EAD Tokyo please

 

[ElFly]

Assuming this is a new game, please no:

1) Fucking New Super Mario Bros presentation. I'll vomit fire if "bah" moves to non-NSMB games.

2) Fucking Artoon. Ruined YS DS.

Yoshi was already ruined by his baby sounding voice, instead of his funky...sound effect...from super mario world.

Don't think both Best Buy and Future Shop are trolling...

Believe.

Even if it had the "bah-bah" music and dancing space pirates? :-D

 

[Exterminieren]

Best Buy's and Future Shop's different descriptions added to the OP.

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

GoodFeel I hope is working on it as well...

Epic Yarn looked great (and I liked the gameplay system too), far better than Kirby's Return to Dreamland in every conceivable way EXCEPT for not being a traditional Kirby adventure.

 

[DimmuBurgerKing]

A bit early, no? Do we know who's making it? I said the same when I heard of Wario Land Wii. NSMB DS was a huge letdown for me too... so poor track record for Nintendo as far as 2D revivals are concerned. I vote Retro.

But Wario Land Shake It WAS flippin' beautiful...

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Best Buy's and Future Shop's different descriptions added to the OP.

Awesome. Generic as it is, both websites have different description that just went up.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Ohhh, Nintendo would.

Serious question: Does any other Wii U game description point out HD graphics?

 

[EatinOlives]

Didn't Yoshi's Story have the bahs?
But With Yoshi voices.

Only in the title screen, IIRC, and it that game was supposed to be cutesie with the whole "DAWW LOOK AT THE BABY YOSHI!!". Didn't really mind it there.

New Super Metroid?

The last Metroid is in bahctivity.

The galaxy is at BAH-BAH!!

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Even if it had the "bah-bah" music and dancing space pirates? :-D

Thats for NSMB series. This is "independent yoshi"

 

[brandonh83]

New Super Metroid?

bah bah...

BAH BAH......

bah bah...

 

[Secret Fawful]

Even if it had the "bah-bah" music and dancing space pirates? :-D

I'm searching for the stars
You can't stop my shine
I'm loving Star Road
My head's in the sky

I'm Yoshi
I'm Green Yoshi
I'm Green Yoshi Yoshi

3D platformer developed by EAD Tokyo please

Why would you do this to me?

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

Yoshi's Story completely DESTROYS New Super Mario Brothers in terms of art and sound direction.

 

[Hiltz]

This is old news dating back to November 18th.

Nintendo's statement:

It has come to our attention that some people were able to access a mock up menu on Miiverse following the launch of Wii U in the US. Please note that this was only a mock up menu and has now been removed and is not accessible.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Yoshi's Story completely DESTROYS New Super Mario Brothers in terms of art and sound direction.

and yet, it's a worse video game

 

[Exterminieren]

Serious question: Does any other Wii U game description point out HD graphics?

I'm fairly sure New Super Mario Bros. U does. Remember the controversy over whether the game was actually 1080p or not?

 

[Yuripaw]

In 1080p HD!

I want that

Spoiler

final Baby Bowser boss fight in 1080p. It wasn't super hard, but I thought that looked so fucking awesome back then

 

[Revven]

December 10th, BELIEVE.

 

[stuminus3]

Who cares, you're all going to hate it anyway.

 

[Lord_Byron28]

Wait what?

Suggests that major gaming announcements may be made December 10th. Inside sources back in September said Iwata was going to make major title announcements shortly after Wii U launch.

This is old news dating back to November 18th.

Nintendo's statement:

There's a difference between data someone found on a debug menu alongside "Resident Evils", and actual retailer listings.

Come to think of it, I don't know if they have.

 

[kittens]

I don't understand what these bah jokes are referring to.

 

[KillerTravis]

My mind is telling me it's fake, but my body is telling me it's real.
