I just hope this game isn't super simplistic, like Story or Epic Yarn. I dug both of those games, but they could have been a little more mechanically complex/challenging.
What was that company that was working on a SE AAA port? Straight Right? What are the chances it is Lightning Returns?
Awww, isn't he adorable!!! Too bad i don't have the knitting skills to bring him to life.
Another small gripe- If you're going to make a spritual sucessor to Yoshi's Story why not use fruit as the collectable? I am down with the Epic Yarn-like aestetic, but they should be going out of their way to assure people this isn't just a repurposed Kirby game.
It's hard to imagine this game was first predicted pre-TGS 2011.
That list of rumors was basically 100% accurate.
I'm hoping Retro breaks free of Nintendo, actually. Same with Monolith.
I like how the yarn shy-guys shadow shows up as a regular shy-guy
I hope it retains the score attack-y nature of Yoshi's Story. It's the reason I loved Yoshi's Story.
Cool, I really dug Kirby's Epic Yarn - at least in terms of art style - and I've been hoping Nintendo would take the "yarn" motif and apply it to other franchises (Yarn Zelda next please!). This looks pretty fun.
If we know this, Nintendo have to know it too. Here's hoping!I Loved the Visuals of Kirby but the game was so easy and boring...
Soul Hackers mmmmm
WHAT LIST? The one that had Bayonetta 2, Bayonetta CG movie, Monster Hunter Tri G 3DS, Monster Hunter Portable 3rd HD and etc before they were revealed? That one?
Are people really crediting LBP for the yarn aesthetic? I know it's been pointed out, but Yoshi's Story has it beat by like a decade. Anyway, the game looks pretty, but the difficuly/level design will be the deciding factor between a day one purchase and a price slash purchase. My feelings are mixed. As a sucker for side scrolling platformers I'm interested, but obviously this isn't as exciting as an internally developed game. Even among the companies Nintendo outsources these types of games to I find Tose more competent than Good Feel. My biggest concern is that the level design will be too vanilla based on the dev's track record.

You're looking for Armature games and their impressive resume since "breaking free".
You're joking, right?
Already done.
Hold on, are you saying NSMB was dog shit?
I didn't say they weren't competent, just that Tose is more competent. And for the record, Shake It! is decent (at its best when you're speedrunning a level imo), but for me it's a pretty middle tier game within the series. I don't even know that I'd put it in my top 10 platformers of the generation.Good feel made epic yarn and wario land shake it. Both games are very competent the latter might even be top 10 material
I let out an audible sigh when I saw that Yoshi was 2D and made of yarn, but these other screenshots with 3D Yoshi are giving me hope! More stuff like this please, but in 3D:
Please, no Yoshi's Epic Yarn!
And stop hating on Yoshi's Story you old farts!
I'll always remember that day. My balls still hurt from it...F-U?
You weren't there in 1998. Loading up Yoshi's Story, salivating at the awesome looking graphics and AWESEOM music only to realise how FUCKING AWEFUL the game was!
It was like a kick in the balls. Probably the biggest bait and switch betryalton in gaming history.
Awesome music is in my head.
da da daa da da.
I hear it's bad a lot, but how so?
Is it too easy? Like, Epic Yarn easy...?
The game is a score attack game where you have to eat 30 fruits to finish the level. To get the max score you have to find the 30 melons in the stage. There is no end to the level and you have to search for fruits to eat. That also mean that you can finish any stage easily by eating all the fruits you see.
The game was okay I would say.
Oh, so it's (on a broad level) like Yoshi's Touch and Go. Being score attack. But it looked like it might be a new Yoshi's Island so people are all argh.
