Chill man, this is going to be a great game, is one of the most wanted games this year of a bunch of users around here, this is not "Mario" by the way, this is Yoshi, is quite different on its gampaly and aesthetics.

And we don´t have a proper home console Yoshi since 1994.

1997 if we count Yoshi Story as a proper Yoshi game, ehem...


I know, so I think it's great that those that buy will enjoy a lot.  even if it's in 70's/80's that's still a great score.

(but if you think about that it could have been a f zero or kid icarus 3d dk or something instead.... lol.)

First, big name platformers aren't very common anymore so Nintendo still showing the genre love is not a problem in my eyes.  A COD clone would be a much more unnecessary creation.  Not saying you suggest that, just making a point: when someone says something is unnecessary, in my eyes it means it is part of a very over saturated genre.

 

Second and more important, this isn't something as simple as "they could have made x game instead" due to the difference in studio skill sets and available resources.  The budget and resources used for this game are not necessarily equal to those of another title.  In fact, given a third party was brought in it almost certainly is not.
