Yo Yoshi!
New year, new Yoshi
It’s Mario day—oh, you didn’t know? Well it is indeed. The 10thof March is marks the march of Mario, so says Nintendo, and the Big N is more than happy to hit us with a surprise announcement.
In just eleven days, on the 21stof March everyone’s favourite greedy green dinosaur Yoshi will have his newest game release. Called Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, this new title follows the tradition of the Yoshi franchise, bringing more unusual, experimental mechanics to the platformer genre. Nintendo has released a trailer for Yoshi’s new game, and you can watch it below.

Playing videogames, writing about videogames, considering videogames—that about sums it up. Videogames are the one hobby that I’ve kept since I was only little, zapping ducks on the NES or knocking out MR. X. And when I’m not enjoying classics from the bit generation of games or checking out those earliest of polygons, I’m probably playing something from today’s age of modern gaming: if I’m not complaining about it. Something I’m doing at the moment? Finally tackling Octopath Traveller 2.
