Nintendo announced that New Super Mario Bros. Wii has been dated for November 15 in America, three weeks before another heavy Nintendo hits: Zelda: Spirit Tracks on the DS.
If you're not familiar with this game check out Chad's hands-on preview from E3 -- he loved it so much that he gave it a 9.5 score. (We don't do preview scores, and that's not a review score. It's a special Chad's happy-magical-fun-time-rainbow score.)
Unfortunately that's all they have revealed about the game. We did get some new screenshots and a high-res render of Mario riding Yoshi that you can check out in the gallery below. Now that this is in the pipe, we expect news on Super Mario Brothers Galaxy 2 to also rear its head sometime soon.

I like the Angry Video Game Nerd's name for this game:
"Asshole Mario"
Because it really is. LOL.
hahaaha jk jk
CAnz 360 haz star fox?!?!
hahaha, NINTEND-OWNS!
Anyway, I'm excited for Mario. I just hope to God it's longer and much more of a challenge than the DS game.
I hope they optimized it. It was chugging at E3 and even Miyamoto commented that it was pushing the hardware to the limits. It's a really fun party game, I hope people give it a fair shot.
And just in time for my birthday and Christmas :)
Agreed. That pause looks so insanely annoying that it is nearly on par with tripping in Brawl. Please take it out, Nintendo!
(Ugh. I doubt it. The game is likely done by now and off to be manufactured.)
This is what Super Paper Mario should have been.
<3 Nintendo
Actually Super Paper Mario rocked the way it was. :D
lol sorry i had to..
I enjoyed SPM, but there was too much story and not enough classic gameplay, in my humble opinion. Not to mention the part where you have to run on that hamster wheel for 20 minutes, unless you look online for the password to that damned door. How is that even fun? Holding down a button while I watch TV isn't fun, Nintendo.
Also, their whole explanation for this not having online is that there are too many things going on at one time, and it'd be too much for Wii to handle. Really? Then how come Smash Bros. and Mario Kart are able to have online?
I agree 2 toads is terrible though. How about the SMB2US lineup? If Peach is unavailable due to the storyline, they could have used any of about 1000 other characters.
Now, let's hope they fix that PAUSE deal while you snatch a power-up... An option to turn it off would be swell. But we all know Nintendo... They hate giving players options in their games. Why? I do not know.
Anyway, Nov. 15 better hurry the hell up! So excited! =)
Yeah, I remember that part of the game with the wheel... However, there was a spot where you could find the code by flipping to 3D. I can't remember where it was, though, but I found it eventually.
I agree, too much story was present, but it was a part of the RPG series. Going into it knowing that helped, I guess.
