Why Yoshi’s Woolly World deserves a second chance on Nintendo Switch
Posted on 3 weeks ago by Ethan in Features, Switch, Wii U | 0 comments
Of all the Wii U titles that haven’t made the jump to Nintendo Switch, Yoshi’s Woolly World is absolutely one of the most deserving.
Early on in the Switch’s life span, Nintendo filled what would have otherwise been gaps in their release schedule with plenty of Wii U ports. Between Super Mario 3D World, Pikmin 3, New Super Mario Bros. U, and especially Mario Kart 8, many of that console’s best-received titles found new life on Nintendo Switch. Lately though, we haven’t been seeing many Wii U ports at all. Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition could be counted as one, but between the graphical overhaul and added story content, one could argue that it goes beyond that.
The point is, we likely won’t be seeing many more Wii U ports on Nintendo Switch or even Switch 2. Nintendo has, for the most part, ported all of its heavy hitters. However, we’re now talking about one particular Wii U game that has sort of fallen into obscurity: Yoshi’s Woolly World.

[Review] BAKERU
Posted on 5 months ago by Dawn in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: September 3, 2024
Developer: Good-Feel
Publisher: Spike Chunsoft
BAKERU is an interesting mix of past and present for Good-Feel. As the co-producer of the long-running Ganbare Goemon series, Etsunobu Ebisu has clearly brought his expertise from that here by creating what feels like a spiritual successor in tone and presentation, and with an impressive resume of titles of a similar genre on Switch (including Princess Peach: Showtime! and Kirby’s Extra Epic Yarn) this game represents the best of both worlds. Thankfully, it delivers on both fronts to be one of the best 3D action games I’ve played on the system this year.
Good-Feel seems to be the developer of Princess Peach: Showtime

March 6: Wondering who’s the developer behind Princess Peach: Showtime? That responsibility seems to fallen to Good-Feel.
Princess Peach: Showtime received a demo just a short while ago, and unsurprisingly, some fans are digging through the contents behind-the-scenes. A codename has been discovered, which is PJ037. That matches up with other codenames Good-Feel has been associated with.

Yoshi’s Crafted World dev Good-Feel teases new Switch game
Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Switch, Videos | 0 comments
Good-Feel, the developer of several Nintendo titles including Wario Land: Shake It!, Kirby’s Epic Yarn, Yoshi’s Woolly World, and Yoshi’s Crafted World, came out with its first self-published game Monkey Barrels last year. The studio is now working on its next project that’s been teased for Switch.
Good-Feel president Etsunobu Ebisu spoke vaguely about the upcoming game in this week’s issue of Famitsu. It’s an action game, but that’s only what’s been confirmed at the moment in terms of gameplay.
As part of the Famitsu interview, we’re able to get a look at storyboards and concept art, which you can see above. Ebisu mentioned that the Japanese setting stems from Good-Feel’s location in Japan and how the company understands what makes Japanese people laugh. At the same time though, he “has a feeling gamers outside of Japan will like it too…”
