Weak Point

– It’s possible for the gauge to reduce when you’re exposed to an attack, so feed the gauge for a “Weak Point Smash” before it runs out
– One of the weak point opportunities is when King Dodongo opens his mouth
– If you throw a bomb in there, there will be a huge explosion in his belly
– This will transition into a Weak Point opportunity after this occurs
– Strike repeatedly in order to increase the gauge for a “Weak Point Smash”

Yoshi’s Woolly World will offer more challenge than Kirby’s Epic Yarn
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 3 Comments
Good Feel created Kirby’s Epic Yarn – a title that many would say was a bit on the easy side – and the company is now working on Yoshi’s Woolly World. Unlike the last game made by Good Feel, the Wii U game will offer a more challenging experience.
According to Nintendo’s Takashi Tezuka:
“With Yoshi’s Woolly World, we don’t intend it to be for younger players…we were going to make it a Yoshi game. The courses beyond what we have on the show floor will get more challenging. And if you try to get all the collectibles, you’ll find it pretty challenging. It’ll push back.”
Yoshi’s Woolly World doesn’t have Baby Mario, and you can also die by falling in pits. Tezuka said that these two elements make it “easy to raise the difficulty level as needed. It’s kind of like Mario.”

Xenoblade Chronicles X isn’t a direct followup to Xenoblade Chronicles. Rather, Nintendo has confirmed that the game acts as a spiritual successor with the two sharing some of the same philosophical notes. Nintendo’s Treehouse division shared the news during a live-stream of the game yesterday.
