Throwing Eggs with stylus sounds like a ton of fun, even though this will probably never happen.

I will say, graphically the game looks f*** fantastic

Unfortunately Epic Yarn was bad and this likely will be too

It looks like it has a bit more depth than Epic Yarn. I haven't played EY myself, so I can't say much. I'm glad another console yoshi game is being released, though.

Seriously

It was a game clearly designed to appeal to children
It wasn't interesting or challenging
It wasn't a Kirby game at all
It left a bad taste in my mouth until Return to Dreamland released

they aren't going to change the entire game, tid

That's how you attack in Yoshi Touch & Go!

And hey!... Yarn Yoshi! :wee:

can you read

They gave me a Kirby game that wasn't a Kirby game at all. All of Kirby's key abilities were removed from it in place of ones that make more sense with the art style. The art style is nice, but visual aesthetics don't make a game. It was clearly designed for children (young children) as can be seen with the storytelling, the art style, and of course the difficulty. It is completely impossible to die in the game, the only hint of challenge comes from getting the collectibles. The new mechanics (such as pulling the yarn/moving into the background etc) worked really well with the environment, but it simply wasn't enough to keep me interested through a whole new game.

As its own entity, it's a game for kids that I can ignore. As a Kirby game, it's bad, and frustratingly so since it had been ages since the last Kirby (Which was Squeak Squad I believe). I've forgiven them for it since Return to Dreamland came out and was 110% fantastic, though.

Yes, but
none of this implies it's a bad game, just a different game

You're the one who's claiming that a perfectly good game is terrible just because they put the Kirby logo on it to sell more copies.

Digression aside, this looks just as good.
