Wow..... this has been reposted 3 times and not a single deal among them.... unless I am missing something? This isn't a bundle with the game included is it? Because that's not how it looks in the ad. But why wouldn't it be bundled, at least digitally?
if you were an actual huge fan you wouldnt even have to think about it, youd just buy it like the rest of us.
That's fanboy, not fan. And frankly they are a colossal disservice to the rest of us. Gamers who buy anything just because it has Mario stamped onto it are the reason we keep getting NSMB or Super Mario HD Lands instead of something truly innovative (like Galaxy was for Wii, Sunshine for GC, 64 for the 64, ect). They encourage laziness and reward Nintendo for farting out titles as cheaply/lazily/quickly as possible. So go ahead, give yourself a pat on the back...... and a swift kick in the ass while you are at it.
I consider myself a fan and I'm not going anywhere near this game. Why should I? The original Yoshi's Island was great, no doubts there. Yoshi's Story was fine but a bit simplistic and very short (short to 100%, much shorter if you don't play through everything lol). Yoshi's Island DS was a subpar platformer at best. If the trend continues, this new game will be a disaster. Needless to say I won't be getting any limited edition system either, I will never understand why simply stamping a character on a system or game suddenly makes it so much more valuable in the eyes of the fanboy.
If the reviews say this game is comparable to the original Yoshi's Island, then I'll consider picking it up, but Nintendo's history doesn't favor that. And, after the semi-decent reviews that horrid abortion Yoshi's Island DS get, I'm talking 9/9.5's across the board, anything less and I won't be willing to gamble on this brand again.
