[Update: Added what appears to be the first screens of the game, also from the keynote. Check the gallery for the goods.]
Not a shock, but it's nice for it to be confirmed: Nintendo president Satoru Iwata confirmed that there's an all-new Super Mario game in development for the Nintendo 3DS.
Being designed by the same team responsible for the Super Mario Galaxy games, all Nintendo was willing to really show today was the logo. As Iwata points out, the logo is temporary, but revealing. See that tail? Well, it means something, but Nintendo's not willing to get into specifics.
Any guesses?

That's what I'd guess. Only I think that Nintendo would do the pun of "tale" rather than "tail". Maybe call it Super Mario Tale?
*Fanboy Spasm* Raragragrahahuuhu
And this looks just like Super Mario Galaxy which is a very very good thing
I think the 3DS is going to be my favorite gaming device ever
I think we'll see everyone struggling to find ways to bring 3D into the actual gameplay, and this will be one of the few games showing everyone how it's done.
We'll see.
Still, I was hoping for a 2D Mario with 3D depth-of-field. Might happen down the road I guess.
I know, its funny how people freak out for PS3 ports to NGP, but getting a New Mario game being made by the SMG1/2 Team on the 3DS, is disappointing to these people. Yeah, a successor to two of the best reviewed games of all time, is really disappointing. I just don't get people on this site sometimes, how can they even call themselves gamers?
Their called 'opinions.'
So you know. Chill.
*They're*
Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one!
you speak wisdom. Sunshine had it's moments and Galaxy had no difficulty at all.
SO FUCKING HYPED
This amuses me.
Looks pretty interesting, though.
Well, as interesting as 4 screenshots can be.
I think we all can get excited for this...
Also, is that a comet coin in the bottom right screen?
You win the entire internets for that very clear piece of evidence. I just checked on Youtube, and the tail does indeed appear on the title screen.
