After many long years of absence from his own platforming series, Kirby is returning with Kirby’s Epic Yarn for the Nintendo Wii. The new game, which launches this fall, takes Kirby in a new art direction as the game features a yarn / thread based graphical style. Everything in the game looks as if it were constructed by yarn, and most things function in accordance with that make up.
The announcement trailer for the game, shown below, gives you a glimpse of just how cool the style looks in motion. The Nintendo Wii may be, technically, the weakest system on the console market, but Nintendo continues to prove that they know how to get the most out of their little console.
I guess that I can officially add Kirby’s Epic Yarn to my want-list for the year...
