SpikeTV/GameTrailers did get the exclusive reveal for The Wonderful 101.
So you're wishing for another soulless pseudo sequel and dull game like Yoshi's Island DS? Not cool with me...

Yeah, kind of.
I mean, EAD Tokyo is probably doing a 3D Mario so I'd rather have variety and it be a more "edgy"(I hate using words like that) title to mix it all up, especially since there's been a lot of effort and time put into it.
With that said, I envisioned E3 hitting and Retro's game being Donkey Kong Country Returns 2 and many people being completely let down but because it's Retro and I like games like that, I'd find the positive.
Now if they made a game like Tetris, I'd consider it a waste
Even the Mario Club?

Nope beautiful yoshi mmo mix and make your own colored yoshi and venture out into the yoshi land with other players on miiverse.This is going to be 2D, right?
Man, I want a 3D Mario or Yoshi game
:lol
You're right. That was true much to our disappointment. I mean, people would have rather seen that game revealed at the actual E3 conference. It's just that as far as the actual VGAs goe, it has historically been anti-Japanese friendly. Of course, this is a commercialized western gaming event hosted by annoying celebrities appealing largely to fellow dudebro gamers. It's understandable why they generally don't give two shits about acknowledging - let alone awarding - Japanese-developed games in general. These guys even had an award category based on Mountain Dew for god sake.
They did get Miyamoto last year and put Zelda in the hall of fame.

Yes, I don't see Nintendo ever giving them any kind of announcement for this event, it doesn't make sense for any side. The W101 reveal was still at E3, so...
Well this has been rumored for ages, as a GoodFeel game, I can hardly be surprised that its real at this point.
It's kind of weird though, does the WiiU really need yet another 2D platformer right now? I would love to see it, but we have little else announced for next year it would be a bit strange with Mario and Rayman already leading the charge on that front. Particularly if the announcement is forthcoming.

Is this sequel to the legendary thread on 11/18?

I'll pick this up if it's real
I'd buy the shit out of that.
I'm getting a Wii U and the only thing I want for it is Zombi U.
Sorry for hoping that something I personally find interesting is announced.

Would GoodFeel be capable of making a more challenging, big kid platformer? Kirby Epic Yard was too easy, and I haven't played Shake Dimension.
I still hope it's Retro.

In my mind, that is evidence of Retro's sequel to Donkey Kong Country Returns (being worked on by their second team).
Yoshi's Land is being developed by Good-Feel.
I hope.
p.s. I'm also imagining the Yoshi's Land logo having some sort of overlapping or doubling of the letters 'i' and 's', (Yoshi's Land) both as an homage to Yoshi's Island and a hint at its intertwining gameplay based on time travel between past and present (and possibly future) versions of Dinosaur Land.
Yeah.

Well, not if it's a Yoshi game? Even Yoshis Island is ridiculously easy.
Though that doesn't change that Epic Yarn was still incredible.

Yoshi's Island is way harder than just about any Kirby game. And that's fine. I just wonder if GoodFeel would be up to the task of making a different style platformer. I don't know much about their work.

I would too, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed it wasn't something that was graphically impressive with a more serious art style. Either way, Yoshi's Island will be gorgeous if it really does hit the Wii U.
The Metroid series is fairly stylised, certainly compared to something like Uncharted. All it tells us is that they're probably not working on anything with a highly realistic graphical focus, which most people would have expected anyway.
I'm pretty sure "hand painted" is basically just a term for "not photographs" here. I also wouldn't read to much into that posting, unless you also think the project's coming to the Gamecube.
A crayon-shaded Yoshi's Island on the Wii U by Retro could be graphically impressive as fuck, although not in the same way as something like Uncharted.
Fake edit: This prospect of a Retro-developed Yoshi's Island is really bringing the four letter words from me today. Maybe it's some sort of repressed desire from those dark days when swearing wasn't allowed on gaf.

While I am excited about this, not sure if I really want two 2d mario platormers this soon after launch.
I'm hoping for a 3d game!

At this point, I'd take 3D over 2D for pretty much any of Nintendos platforming series. Wii was 2D overload, even though mostly excellent but simply too much. Doesn't help that Rayman also went back to 2D now, ugh.

They just want you to love them!
Why would you do that?

Watch vids of it on YouTube. Epic Yarn compared to Shake It/Dimension is like comparing Nintendogs to, uh, Seaman.
It isn't cute, nor overly easy, nor calming and soothing.
(I recommend the game, btw. I don't even like the Wario series, but liked that game.)

all of my money if true.
Yoshi's Island is one the best games OF ALL TIME.

I hope this is a full fledged game with a similar art style to the original. "Yoshi's land" isn't a good name though IMO
Same here. Except Donkey Kong Country. The Wii game looks really cool.
Don´t be that guy. Of course, it doesn´t have to relate to the Yoshi Island, but it can and makes sense. End of story.

Epic Yarn was way harder than Kirby's Return to Dreamland if you were attempting to Gold Medal the levels.
The later levels are basically one hit, BAM, you're out of the running.

Epic Yarn haters are the worst kind of people
I don't think "power" has the same sexy appeal it once did

When the system has come out and people are doubting that it can even handle ports from systems that released 6-7 years ago...I think it's a valid concern.
I have no doubts that Nintendo will do some amazing looking things on it...it'd be nice to get a glimpse of what those things are.
I like to imagine that the reason they didn't do a Wave Race/1080/Excite Bike (Truck doesn't count) et al on the Wii was because there was no real power jump and they were waiting to really show off the tech on a new HD system.
But I'm wrong a lot.

Trailer will go alittle something like this...
Starts with footage of classic Yoshi's island then suddenly we hear "BAH, BAH," and the screen does a transition and we see Yoshi's island in new super Mario bros style graphics.

for my reaction to this, just imagine someone staring off into the void.
Sure, but the Wii was so successful based on its ability to be played by everyone. Its success was predicated on people who don't normally play buying one. I don't see the Wii U being the same.
