Nintendo of Australia has announced a whopping two days have been shaved off Yoshi's Woolly World's release for Wii U, bringing the creative platformer to June 25th, instead of June 27th. And yep, it's still sickeningly cute and we can't wait to play it.

As a reformed Nintendo fanboy, life got so much easier when I finally admitted to myself that The Big N made games for kids, which once I did, could then accept that they're games for kids, everyone can enjoy. Even adults. Like me.

Here's a bit about Yoshi's Woolly World:
Once upon a time in Craft Island, a paradise located in the middle of Handmade Ocean, the peaceful lives of different-patterned Yoshis are rudely disrupted by the dastardly Kamek, who has kidnapped Yoshis by turning them into balls of yarn using his magic. Having escaped the surprise attack by this notorious villain, Yoshi must set out on an adventure spanning various Worlds, with beautiful landscapes ranging from lush woolly meadows to fluffy mountain peaks. And at the end of it all…well, Yoshi might encounter an even fiercer villain behind this pesky plot…

On this journey of discovery, Yoshi must Ground Pound, Flutter Jump, and gobble up woolly enemies, which can be turned into Yarn Balls - both big and small - to lob at obstacles and other enemies standing in Yoshi’s way. As a classic staple in the Yoshi platform series, Yoshi can also transform in certain levels, so don’t be surprised to encounter a fast-swimming Mermaid Yoshi, a quick-firing Sky Pop Yoshi aeroplane, and even a Moto Yoshi, where Yoshi turns into a high-speed motorbike.

But while Yoshi’s adventures will be action-packed, there is no time limit to finish each level, and if a level is getting particularly tough, you can switch the game to Mellow Mode at any point and play as Winged Yoshi. With the power of flight, Yoshi will find the action a little easier to manage! In addition, and in the spirit of two Yoshis being better than one, a co-operative feature allows one of your friends to join the platforming fun as a second Yoshi and play the entire adventure alongside you.
There's also a new trailer you can watch embedded below and, hey, it's okay adults - you can admit you're into this.

I would argue they're not games aimed at kids, they're games aimed at everyone.

I'm seriously more excited for Wooly World than any other game this year. Yoshi's Island is tied with Mega Man X for me as the best 2D platformer ever.
