It’s ridiculous how in this current generation Nintendo can get away with selling a standard definition gaming console, when every other market competitor has moved to high definition visuals that can be seen at home on your television, or even on the go via a Smartphone or handheld device. Kirby’s Epic Yarn makes you forget about the amount of resolution lines or fancy retina displays, to focus your attention to the game’s art direction, rather than the smooth edges and realism of the characters seen in high definition. It can be difficult for some people to admit how they adore the little pink ball of yarn weaving across the screen, which shouldn’t happen considering that amount of creativity that can be acknowledged and appreciated by all age groups and genders. There are many practical ways to unravel, rip, cut or tangle the yarn that keeps Kirby alive and mortal, all of which are absent in a child friendly, and at times, boring experience.
