Nintendo Announces New Yoshi Title From The Makers Of Kirby's Epic Yarn

Nintendo was only able to offer a few details, and a little bit of gameplay, but the new Yoshi game for Wii U already looks incredibly charming.

This will be the first standalone home console Yoshi title since Yoshi's Story on Nintendo 64.

  • While I like Epic Yarn for the most part, it was way too easy and because of that it got a little boring towards the end. I hope this game is just as fun but a little more challenging.
  • First off, it looks amazing. I always liked the art style chosen for Kirby's Epic Yarn, and it seems perfectly suited for a Yoshi game. Secondly, I'm really hoping this plays more like Yoshi's Island, rather than Yoshi's Story.
  • Man, that looks pretty. I'm not normally a fan of Yoshi's games, but I may have to get over that fact for this.
  • The detail on this is absolutely amazing, especially on the zoomed in shot. I knew once I played the Yoshi Fruit Cart mini-game they were going to do something like this and I'm glad! Epic Yarn was such a well put together game, and I expect even more out of this, plus, THOSE VISUALS....
  • This looks fantastic. Epic Yarn certainly was.

  • I'm sure the art style's gonna put off some gamers like Epic Yarn did, but I'm also equally sure that those of us willing to give it a try will love the results. Can't wait!

  • Wow, that bottom pic looks pretty amazing, and it's so detailed. I got a question though. I've played Yoshi's Island (I beat it last year), but I never played Story. Is it a 3D platformer, or is it side-scrolling in a 3D environment, or something like that? In any case, I don't ever really hear anything super positive about that game.
  • pretty awesome visuals...i would totally play this

  • YES!!!!!! ...BUt I need a Wii U!!
  • Epic Yarn was pretty amazing, it was overflowing with adorableness and charm, so I can only assume this will too. I do need to see more of in in action however, the screen shots don't really look that impressive.

  • This new Yoshi title looks so gorgeous! I really can't wait for this game to be released. It's yet another reason why I NEED a Wii U! Hopefully, Nintendo will release some footage for this game soon. I can't wait for this!
  • Very cool. I did enjoy Epic Yarn, and am glad Nintendo is finally dishing out another standalone Yoshi game.

  • Cant wait!!! Nintendo won E3 2013!!!
  • If you think Lois`s story is surprising..., last pay-cheque my brother basically actually earnt $5155 grafting thirteen hours a week in their apartment and the're friend's step-sister`s neighbour done this for six months and made more than $5155 in there spare time at there mac. apply the advice from this address..http://nipp.me/d7t
  • OMG!!! That look astounding! I need to get a Wii U now! Ok, ok breath.  

  • Looks spectacular!

  • disappointed its made of yarn... but can't wait

  • Fantastic. Epic Yarn was an amazing game, and it's about time that Yoshi got another adventure. I can't wait.
  • With all this news, I really want a WiiU now.
