Leaks just keep coming out of Canada today, first Wii Mini and now this.

Yoshi's Land was one of those games spotted when that guy stumbled into the MiiVerse admin menu. It could be that Futureshop's source is also that leak, but it's still pretty interesting.

Here is a source for this topic.

I would take this as a grain of salt.

Yoshi's LAND? Not ISLAND?!

[angelo07stang]

More info. Future Shop has added some info for the game:

Join everyone's favourite dinosaur in his first big starring role on Nintendo Wii U - Yoshi's Land. Utilise the power of the Wii U Touchscreen GamePad to enjoy dual-screen fun in this epic adventure with stunning HD graphics and connectivity with the MiiVerse.

Take Yoshi on an epic adventure to remember in Yoshi Land for Nintendo Wii U. Check out Yoshi as you've never seen him before: in glorious high definition. Enjoy dual-screen control thanks to the Wii U Touchscreen GamePad, while you'll also be able to experience full integration with Nintendo's MiiVerse service.

This description is something anyone can make up. All Wii U games have HD graphics, dual-screens, and most of the first party games will use Miiverse. An employee might've been required to include a description, and took something out of his/her butt.

Also, it seems that Best Buy has listed the game as well. You can find the listing here.

Agreed, I'm not saying it's genuine, just linking for discussion purposes. However that description is worth considering. Yeah, anyone could have made it up with enough knowledge of the Wii U and Nintendo characters, but that's not necessarily the same person who types up product descriptions. They're usually supplied by the publisher and making up a product description for a product that's only rumoured to exist is not standard practice for a reputable online retailer. Still... I didn't think Amazon would open pre-order for products with fan made covers on the page and they do that all the time.

Exactly, the description tell us nothing about the game, besides that the location Yoshi would be in would be known as " Yoshi Land" ( why not the island?). But since Best Buy is listing this too, I'm going to guess that the employees that are putting this up are easily assured that the game exists due to the Miiverse leak. But there's always a chance of this being legit. Nintendo did say there were more launch window surprises, this could be one of them. But I'd take it with a grain of salt, remember a few months back when some GameStop stores had display boxes for Donkey Kong 3DS and Kirby 3DS? They turned out to be fake, but I'd say Yoshi's Land seems more likely. Just due to the fact that Nintendo themselves had that information in Miiverse.

[TylerV]

Seems exciting. I'd definitely want this.

[Goom]

I want Goomba Land T_T

[Keviin]

If it won't be legit, then why would a big store chain like Best Buy post it? Then again, retailers have been stupid enough sometimes.

[Auzzie Wingman]

Well, at the very least feel free to give the idea hope.

Better than doom saiyan.

Remember Donkey Kong 3DS

[Tsuchinoko]

I hope this is real. Would be a great surprise for us. And does anyone have the source for Nintendo saying their were more launch window surprises?

[SoldMyWiiUAndLeftTheForums]

Hopefully this happens.

Interesting leak to say the least. I myself havem't played a Youshi game, but I'm sure I would on WiiU. Can't say how legit this is. Given this is one of the game's in the Miiverse leak and retailers are taking pre-orders, I think this might just be real.
