A preview of sorts of Yoshi's Woolly World.

Can't say I feel inspired to buy it, sounds like it's at risk of suffering from the lack of polish most of the Yoshi series has suffered from and the art style isn't going to carry it for me. Yoshi's Island was brilliant, Story was light but fun enough in its own ways. Since then Topsy Turvy, Touch & Go, DS and New Island have shown you can't trust the Nintendo name on this series so that red flag remains raised.

Just as long as Nintendo themselves are making it and not some s****** like artoon I'm sure itle be fine.

It's made by the people who did Kirby's Epic Yarn so I'm totally on board.

Likewise. Hopefully I can get an Amiibo for it (my first and likely only) so I can play it co-op with the kids.

[wakka]

You can play coop without an Amiibo, I'm pretty sure. The Amiibo unlocks an AI controlled second player I think.

That makes more sense. I was pissed at Nintendo trying to nickle and dime me like most other publishers.

Don't need the Amiibo then.

Still want it

EDIT: Or not. Discover and explore new areas in 2-player cooperative multiplayer (additional accessories required for multiplayer mode; sold separately)

Second controller needed info probably.

[wakka]

Yeah pretty sure that's just indicating you need another controller mate.

Haha, probably. It never occurred to me that most people just have one console with a controller and that's it.

Their wallets are probably healthy than mine, too.

[Neon Ignition]

Some of the info posted on the GAF forums from Nintendos financial reports suggests Nintendo is still gunning for Devils Third to get a western release in 2015 and for Starfox to still arrive this year too

Zeldas now marked entirely as TBC rather than 2016 now

[endo]

So for the next console then...

Hate to say it but
