Mario Super Sluggers, Wario Land dated; more details from Nintendo
Seems like Ninty doesn’t want to wait till E3 to spill the beans about its new games. Nintendo has released details and release dates for several of its upcoming games for the Wii and the DS, including Mario Super Sluggers and Wario Land: Shake It! Details in the full article.
Nintendo’s been pretty quiet lately after the smashing success of Wii Fit and the slew of Mario games before that. We thought they’d wait until E3 to announce their new games, but it looks like they couldn’t wait. So here, via press release, are details and release dates on several of their upcoming games for the Wii and DS.
We’re hoping we can get something more out of Ninty come E3, maybe new trailers and screenshots. Maybe they also have some surprises in store for the event for us, say, a sequel to Twilight Princess? Well, why not? At any rate, on to the games.
First up is Mario Super Sluggers for the Wii, which was announced earlier this month. Mario Super Sluggers is a full-fledged baseball game that stars the 30 characters from the cast of Mario’s world. The game will be released on August 25.
Coming on September 29 is Mario’s rather flatulent counterpart, Wario. The yellow, smelly menace is back in Wario Land: Shake It!, also for the Wii. The game is a side-scroller that has you shaking the Wiimote to execute a number of actions.
On the DS side of things, we have Kirby Super Star Ultra, which will be launched on September 29. The new Kirby game will have you going against King Dedede and Meta Knight. The game will have various minigames, and boasts fully rendered animated cut scenes.
Also coming for the DS is Mystery Case Files: MillionHeir, which will be released on September 8. The game is a detective story that has you searching for evidence, solving logic puzzles, and investigating characters to find the heir to a million-dollar fortune. Sounds like it’s going to be very reminiscent of Professor Layton.
