Yep, this is what happens when you don't treat Yoshi like a C-tier franchise and give it to a great developer with a decent budget for the game.

The game is 45 here, and I can get a 15 discount bringing it down to 30. This just looks like the perfect summer game. Going trough every level collecting everything. I'm going to wait for reviews to hit though.

Jeff hates everything.
Too true.
After PAL, probably September.

Finished it recently, it's below Yoshi's Island, slightly below Yoshi's Story too, but above everything else Yoshi related (well, apart from Yoshi Touch 'n Go!)

Poochy's been around since Yoshi's Island though.

Have they announced the Woolly World ambiios for US yet? I always miss the ambiio pre-orders, but I definitely don't want to miss this one!

You EU fans are very fortunate to get to play this in just a few weeks, super jealous.
Oh, I didn't know that, heh. I don't remember him being in Yoshi's Story on the N64, which I rented when it came out, so I'm unaware of him.
Looks gorgeous.. but I hate the way the collectible gems look. It completely breaks the art style the game is going for... but that's me splitting threads of wool (hair).
Gotta make them stand out so they're easy to differentiate from the background, I guess. That can be a problem in some games.

Can you say how long it took you to complete the game? I hope the game lasts me more then 20 hours when trying to 100% it.
Typical Amazon.fr, ha ha.

Thanks but could you clarify why you say it's below Yoshi's Story? I'm interested to know why you feel that way considering that's easily the lowest rated entry in the series both score wise and fan wise not to mention terribly bland level design.

Ok, I may have been a little too harsh xD
About Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, I absolutely love Through the Sky, but it's a remix tho...
Wait, are they releasing colors other than green, pink and blue? Can't watch the video at the moment.Yoshi amiibos plushy attack hug!! ヾ(◜▿‾ ( ´▿｀ ) ‾▿◝
I say it everytime a new Wolly World thread pops out but I really think this game is going to be the a true and worthy succesor of the all-mighty Yoshi's Island on SNES. 20 freaking years later oh my! Hope we can get a release date soon in 'murica during E3 next week because even if i'm having a blast with Splatoon at the moment, I'm a bit concerned we don't have new worthy games coming soon here in America...
No, that's to unlock "single-player co-op," where you control two Yoshis at once...
No, it is for double yoshi, just does exactly what you are doing. A copy.
Coop doesnt need an amiibo.
No. It only unlocks a power similar to the Double Cherry in 3D World, where a second Yoshi follows and mimics your moves.

This game looks better each time I see it, it wouldn't surprise me if I end up preferring this to Island because I've got a good feeling about this one.
Dislike that the double cherry like gimmickry is trapped behind the Yarn Amiibo though, it's like half the price of the game itself so that's a no go for me.
It's funny because while it is such a small thing I imagine you could get creative with it.
It's a brave new world for the franchise.
I wonder how long it's actually been in development? surprised it's taken this long to come out.

Wait, how much does the amiibo cost? I'm imagining the game will be $60 here in the US, so if it's half-price like you say, that's a $30 amiibo. (Normally they cost $13)

Well while prices vary it's usually around £30-35 for the game while the special edition hovers around £50 and stand alone yarn amiibos going for around £15-£20.
I expect in the US it would end up around $20? the yarn ones seem to be at a bit of a premium even from Nintendo themselves.
$20 seems reasonable, given the more specialized material. Your typical Nintendo plush is already around $13, so slap the NFC chip on the butt and that might bump up the price.

I might get this and a Wii U down the road. That art style is fucking DOPE.

Looking good, level design seems nicely varied.
Also, they've almost made Yoshi tolerable, so that's nice too

Heh heh.
Sites reported rumors that Good Feel was working on a Yoshi game for 3DS (obviously that part wasn't correct) as far back as 2011/2012.
After denying us regular N3DS, nothing NOA does surprises me anymore. But I'm sure there's some magical "marketing data" up in Redmond that convinced them Splatoon would bomb in the U.S. but not Canada and Europe if a finished Yoshi platform game was released here on time in June!

The alternative is more bitching about amiibo shortages

I don't care about Amiibo shortages. I care that an amazing looking, 100% finished platformer isn't being released here on time like all other regions. Thanks for the pointless subject change attempt though.
wow that is like another game entirely
