I'm playing it right now on WiiU,
that game is crap... It brings nothing new to the series besides the yarn graphics.

It's slow, and the gameplay is really weak.

But well, my girlfriend is a beginner, so it's a right fit for her.

But seriously guys? how can you love this game? Rayman Legends is a 100 times better than Yarn Yoshi

I loved it, completed it 4 times, the game was well received for fans and has good reviews, maybe is just not your thing.

yoshi is always fun IF you like to explore. It does not mean to be a pure platforming game. 

I had a blash 100% it with my gf (the coop mode is really awesome), but i probably wont play it again in a short time as i personally dont like slow pace game that much

You got a WiiU to play the superior version of these games in HD on your TV. I am fine with that. Don't like the idea of console games getting ported to handhelds?

NX could be for you.

I own both a Wii U and a 3DS and I don't have a problem with these ports.

I've never had a problem with ports in general whether it has been on PS4, Vita, XB1, Wii U, 3DS, NX, etc. We know new games are coming anyway and it's not like main teams are wasting their talent and resources as the ports are often done by 3rd party studios like Tantalus Media, Bluepoint Games, Sumo Digital, Sanzaru Games, Armature Studio, Straight Right, etc.

I just think this shows that it would make sense for Nintendo to secure a shared library between their next handheld and home console. Wii U and 3DS already have many games that are more or less similar in gameplay and/or visual style.

The PROS:

High chance of the Daisy amiibo being compatible, and not just a generic amiibo Yoshi costume either.

More speedy Poochy levels.

The CONS:

Probably 30fps, vs the 60fps Wii U version

Less detailed visuals.

I did enjoy Kirby's Epic Yarn more in coop, since it was much easier to play with less skilled players.
Also it felt like it had more charm.

Good reviews, I understand, because a reviewer has to review it for all demographics. But all those "fans that received it well" they're just trying to justify their WiiU and game purchase. 

In a few years that game will be long forgotten and those "fans" that are incapable of objectivity today will be like : "it's an ok game, but this one and this one are better"

Are you suggesting that I'm lying when I said I liked it and all the people that liked it is lying too just because it didn't click for you?

Freaking incredible.

feels like classic yoshis island for me, way better than their 3ds attempt
