1. Yoshi's Crafted World Game Length 1

[Nintendo Everything Podcast] – episode #60 – 2019 Game Of The Year: Oni Dino Galen Game Awards

• Between the overall length and repetitive music, I was worn out by the time I reached the end of the game. Yoshi's Crafted World is a good game that exudes charm and creativity; I still think back on some of the stage concepts, and I'll definitely replay the game in the future.
• Mar 31, 2019  The game could’ve used more challenges, and perhaps even more worlds, and it’s not quite worth the retail price at release, but if you’re starved for something new, it will definitely do the trick. Yoshi’s Crafted World was released for Nintendo Switch on March 29th.

This week, Yahtzee reviews Yoshi's Crafted World. Did you know that the Wii U is remembered by history as a failure? I mean, unless you want to call Wikipedia a liar. There it is, right under the Vectrex and the Virtual Boy on the list of commercial flops. I was a little surprised! Jun 22, 2015  Cute, colourful, quilted: Yoshi's latest outing is surely a contender for the cutest game of the year. All Choices in Yoshi's Crafted World Cutscenes - Duration: 11:52.

It’s the last episode of NEP of the decade! Join Oni Dino and Galen as they give their personal awards across the nightmare-scape that is gaming in 2019. Biggest surprise, biggest embarrassment/controversy, best new character, and so much more. The gang employs a process of elimination that requires bargains, arguments, concessions and a whole lot of passive aggressive love. What will win? How will we compromise? Who won’t make it out alive?

What’s good, spider balls and morph balls! It’s bonus time! We had so much to talk about in NEP 026 that we made it double the length! We’ll also be doing an EXTRAepisode during the week: a spoilercast for Chocobo’s Mystery Dungeon: Every Buddy!

In this episode of NEP, we discuss Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Thieves, the controversy of Persona 5 not being announced for Switch and the community’s negative reaction. This leads us to talk about reality vs expectation, vocal gaming culture and how some gamers handle disappointment. We then lighten things up by talking about Super Mario Maker 2’s upcoming release, Nintendo’s financial briefing (including Pokemon and E3 details), and some more information about Nintendo and Tencent Holdings partnership to break into the Chinese market with the release of Nintendo Switch. And even more!

We hope you enjoy the extra effort this week! As ever, we would appreciate your help in growing the show by sharing the podcast with a friend!

You can read our full translation of the interview below. In it, the team talks about how it settled on the final art style, the surprising kindergarten inspiration and how the game was built around that, the creation of the flip side gimmick, and more.

Yoshi’s Crafted World dev explains how the game came to be and how Switch influenced the project

Posted on 11 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch 0 comments

After making Yoshi’s Woolly World on Wii U (and eventually 3DS), Good Feel continued with the IP to produce Yoshi’s Crafted World on Switch. Members of the development team spoke about the project in-depth in this month’s issue of Nintendo Dream.

According to director Masahiro Yamamoto, talks with Nintendo began before Switch launched. It was actually Nintendo who asked Good Feel is the company wanted to make another Yoshi game as opposed to the other way around. Also, due to Switch’s nature of playing with others and a home console that can be taken on the go, that acted as a major point of influence and led to the idea of having two sides to the different stages.

Yoshi’s Crafted World launched worldwide on March 29. Through March 31, the game sold a bit over 50,000 copies in Japan. Media Create now shares further information about the game’s performance.

Yoshi’s Crafted World sold through 35.96% of its initial shipment. To compare this to recent entries in the series: Yoshi’s Woolly World, which released in July 2015 on Wii U, sold 31,000 units in its first week, while the semi-follow up on the 3DS, Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World, initially sold 40,000 units in that same timeframe. The sales of Switch, however, were down to 50,000 units (89.78% of the previous week), the lowest of the year. Media Create says this means there is no marked influence of the game on hardware sales.

Yoshi’s Crafted World assistant producer Nobuo Matsumiya from Nintendo commented on the game’s difficulty in the latest issue of Nintendo Dream.

Speaking with the magazine, Matsumiya explained that the team wanted Yoshi’s Crafted World to be approachable for all players. The challenge and replability factor comes in if you wish to collect everything. Matsumiya further added, “While there may be some players wanting the same play challenge as Yoshi’s Island, I think there may also be players who want to enjoy the world but find the gameplay bewildering.”

[Review] Yoshi’s Crafted World

Posted on 11 months ago by Campbell(@CampbellSGill) in Reviews, Switch 0 comments

System: Switch
Release date: March 29, 2019
Developer: Good Feel
Publisher: Nintendo

Few games have put a smile on my face as much as Yoshi’s Crafted World. From its gorgeously “crafted” graphics to its adorable, friendly characters, the game is a distillation of simple joy. Even though it doesn’t do very much that’s completely new or innovative, it excels at providing an excellently-presented game that’s bursting at the seams with gameplay that anyone can enjoy.

Yoshi’s Crafted World – “Nintendo Switch My Way” commercial

Posted on 12 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Switch, Videos 0 comments

Nintendo has issued a new North American commercial for Yoshi’s Crafted World. Get a look at the “Nintendo Switch My Way” advert below.

Nintendo’s green dinosaur is about to make his Switch debut soon with the upcoming Yoshi’s Crafted World, and as we get closer to release, details and gameplay footage from the platformer are starting to come in thick and fast. Now, we have one more important detail.

The game’s page over on the Nintendo Switch eShop is confirming that it’ll take up 5.3 GB of memory on your system storage- which sounds about right, considering the file sizes Nintendo Switch games usually end up at, and the fact that Yoshi’s Crafted World doesn’t look like too intensive of a game. With an SD card, 5.3 GB should be perfectly doable (and hey, not a lot of time needed to download the game, which is good).
