@LtSarge Wasn't there already a full sequel on Switch, called Yoshi's Crafted World or something? I'm pretty sure I've played it. Real simple, but real charming, too.

Does this mean I'll actually turn my Switch on and play a game on it again?

@RogerRoger Yeah there was, although I haven't heard many people talk about it. It could be because it came out early on during the Switch's life cycle and it was «just another» 2D platformer from Nintendo. I do want to give it a go down the line though.

Well it's interesting you say that because Nintendo is actually shutting down the Wii U eShop next month. I can't imagine how crazy expensive games for the system are going to get from then on. So it's probably a good idea to buy everything that I want to get now.

I actually liked the New 3DS version of Yoshi's Woolly World quite a bit more, since it also ran at 60fps, made fantastic use of the system's 3D capabilities, and felt more at home on a portable system. Also, some added content that wasn't in the Wii U version. You lose co-op, but I never liked playing that game with other people anyway.

It's a 10/10 platformer no matter where it's played, though.
