Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World is a platformer game in the Yoshi franchise for the Nintendo 3DS. It is a port of Yoshi's Woolly World, which was released for the Wii U in 2015. The game includes the entirety of the original game's levels, along with a bonus mode called Poochy Dash in which the player controls Poochy and tries to collect as many Beads as possible. It also introduces Poochy Pups, who assist the player in discovering secrets when playing in the easier Mellow Mode, Yoshi Theater, which features 31 Yoshi stop-motion videos, and the ability to design custom patterns for Yarn Yoshi. The game uses up 974.125 MB (7,793 blocks) of free space on the SD Card, if players purchase and download the game off the eShop.

Changes and new features[edit]

It has been requested that this section be rewritten and expanded to include more information. Reason: it lacks (detailed) information on the custom pattern editor, more changes are likley

Screenshot of Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World showcasing a "Choc Mint" pattern for Yoshi created by "Nintendo AUNZ" with the comment "Have a Happy Easter!" This image was posted by Nintendo Australia and New Zealand on social media websites alongside the following text:How many chocolate Yoshi patterns will you design this Easter in Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World on Nintendo 3DS?
A custom "Choc Mint Yoshi" pattern created by Nintendo Australia and New Zealand
  • This port features more extensive amiibo support than the Wii U version. Like in the Wii U version, various amiibo can be scanned to give Yoshi patterns based on those characters, but several newer amiibo now have their own patterns of Yoshi as well.
    • The game now has alternate costumes for: Princess Daisy, Waluigi, Boo, Lucas, Roy, Ryu, Corrin, Waddle Dee, Wolf Link, Callie, Marie, and all Animal Crossing amiibo figures. All of them give a generic design in the Wii U version.
    • Similarly to the Japanese and international color variations of the R.O.B. amiibo in the original game, the game also recognizes the Splatoon recolor variants of the Inkling amiibo and Super Mario–line Wario amiibo as a specific amiibo as well. This does not apply to the female Corrin amiibo, however.
    • The game does not recognize the Cloud or Bayonetta amiibo as specific amiibo, despite doing so for the Corrin amiibo.
  • A Yarn Poochy amiibo was released alongside the game; tapping it during a Yoshi level will put Poochy in the level for Yoshi to ride, while tapping it in one of the bonus Poochy stages will enable them to be played in Time Attack mode. If these Time Attack stages are completed, exclusive Poochy designs will be unlocked.
  • Poochy was added to most of the game's cutscenes.
  • If a Smiley Flower is collected at the end of a stage, instead of playing a Bonus Game, a Gold Rush for Poochy Dash is unlocked where Poochy can collect Beads from a Gold Lakitu.
  • There is no longer a results screen with Yoshi looking at it, due to the collectibles being shown on the touch screen.
  • A Yarn Yoshi amiibo can be used to store a custom Yoshi pattern and transfer it to another copy of the 3DS game.
  • Stamp Patches have been removed from this version, and are replaced with Pencil Patches, though these appear in the same locations.
    • Multiplayer mode has also been removed, even though the introduction still shows two Yoshis escaping from Kamek.
  • There is now a Craft Yoshi Editor mode, a mode that lets the player create custom Yoshi patterns.
    • The player can obtain more craft material for the editor by collecting Pencil Stamps.
  • The worlds and levels are on a straight linear path going left and right (akin to Super Mario 3D Land) instead of being connected through fully controllable hub worlds (like Super Mario 3D World).
    • The player needs to press X Button instead of A Button to play with a Yoshi.
    • The game progress is shown and hidden with +Control Pad up and +Control Pad down instead of being shown when the player stays still for 10 seconds.
  • The game features enhanced performance on New Nintendo 3DS systems, running at 60 frames per second (like the Wii U version) compared to 30 frames per second on standard 3DS or 2DS systems.
  • The Shell Patch enemy has been added to the Scrapbook Theater's enemy list.

Reviews
Release Reviewer, Publication Score Comment
Nintendo 3DS Daniel Krupa, IGN 7.1/10 "Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World remains one of the cutest games around. Even though most of the tactile charm of the Wii U original has been lost to the 3DS’s technical limitations, there’s still plenty of fun to be uncovered in this colourful and often inventive platformer. Incidentally, it also brings some of the happiest, catchiest music ever to the 3DS. Yoshi’s faithful Poochy is loveable new addition, but he feels underused; he appears only in a handful of animated shorts, a sparse challenge mode, and as little more than a series of assists in the super-easy ‘Mellow’ mode. He definitely makes tracking down all of the numerous collectibles more enjoyable, but it’s a shame this instantly likeable character doesn’t have more to do that’s unique to his skills."
Nintendo 3DS Kallie Plagge, GameSpot 7/10 "Though the gulf between two very different difficulties is not fully fixed by its additions, from the updated Mellow Mode to the extra Poochy levels, Poochy and Yoshi’s Woolly World gives you what you put in--it can either be almost frustratingly hard for a determined collector or a good fit for someone who’s just looking for a fun, relaxing few hours of platforming."
Nintendo 3DS CJ Andriessen, Destructoid 7/10 "Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World is as fun on the 3DS as the original is on the Wii U. The levels are just as crafty as before, the visuals take a slight hit but are still colorful and creative, and the soundtrack is so gosh darn charming. It's the best Yoshi game on the 3DS, and if you don't already own it on the Wii U, I would suggest picking it up."

It's a mad dash for beads in the new Poochy stages: dodge stumps, mush down snowy paths, chase Lakitu, and unearth hidden paths and items. Sniffing out secrets is always a charm in Mellow Mode, thanks to the curious Poochy Pups.

As you find collectables, you'll unlock rewards, from extra stages to new Patterned Yoshi. You can also design and play as your very own Yarn Yoshi, or share it with friends via the StreetPass function! When you want a break from exploring, peek into the lives of Yarn Poochy and Yarn Yoshi in 30 hilarious stop-motion shorts. It's time to get crafty!
