Yoshi’s New Island release date and trailer
Yoshi’s New Island will be arriving in the UK on the 14th March, Nintendo has announced.
It’s fair to say that anticipation for this game is tempered by some lukewarm previews and a less than inspiring art style. Nonetheless the news that Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island supremo Takashi Tezuka is on board should mean that the game is at least worth a look. And it wouldn’t be the first 3DS title to look rough in screens and video, but pop nicely on the system itself.
UK purchasers who pre-order the game will receive a Yoshi Egg Game Case. In the mean time check out the new trailer above and keep your fingers crossed.
What an egg-cellent pre-order gift.

We have a favour to ask
Thumbsticks has a couple of main aims. We want to write interesting articles and cover games that most outlets won't, and we want to give opportunities to new writers and new voices. And right now, with the current state of online publishing? It's tough! We hate to ask, but if you want us to continue writing what others won't, or to keep covering weird indie games, or to be able to give opportunities to new writers – and only if you can afford it – then please consider supporting us on Patreon.
