A surprisingly depressing announcement was made at today's December Nintendo Direct event, as Nintendo's President Iwata announced the launch of Sonic Lost WorldDLC based on a Nintendo property. Introducing the Yoshi's Island Zone, a DLC pack of what appears to be 2DSonic Lost World levels set in a setting based on the upcoming Yarn Yoshi Wii U title. Today's Nintendo Direct had an unexpected amount of Yoshi's Island content.

I say surprisingly depressing, because this is a Sonic title, man. It's pretty depressing in itself that Sega has had to get Nintendo to publish its games on the Wii U, let alone now requiring Nintendo-themed level DLC to help their game sell better. Ugh, just thinking about how far Sega has fallen since its days of waging a war against Nintendo grosses me out.

The DLC itself looks fine. In fact, this may be more than we've ever seen of the actual Yarn Yoshi Wii U game and oddly enough it's SonicDLC. Plus, I think 2DSonic levels are much more interesting than 3D levels, due to their iconic nature. Sonic is just meant to be in 2D, yo.
