Despite the latest Nintendo handheld being marketed largely around its 3D capability, lets face facts: Mario kicks maximum ass just fine in two dimensions; and he’ll be doing so again shortly.
During yesterday’s investor presentation by Nintendo President Saturo Iwata, we learned that Big N is “planning to release a totally new side-scrolling action Super Mario in 2D as a key title for the Nintendo 3DS in the next fiscal year.”
No further details were given but the timeline would fall sometime between March this year and next. Personally, we’ll take side-scrolling Mario anyway, anytime we can get it.
I hope it is just as good as 3D land. E3 is going to be big this year for Nintendo.
I can’t wait.
3D land was amazing.
And New Super Mario Bros was sooooo fun !
Can’t beleive the amount of big games coming on 3DS these year.
