A total of four new Mario games were announced during Nintendo's press conference at E3. First up is a sequel to the fabulous Super Mario Galaxy, surprisingly titled Super Mario Galaxy 2 — must have taken them ages to come up with that one! Miyamoto has promised that more than 90 percent of the game will be new, maybe more, as the team are using ideas that they couldn't fit into the first one. So expect plenty more upside-down, running around odd little planets and asteroids, let's just hope the camera positioning can be improved even more.
Next up, a brand new Super Mario Bros for Wii. Taking a leaf from the underrated "Zelda Four Swords" game, this time out Mario is accompanied not just by Luigi, but by two other characters — Toads initially, but who knows what you can unlock later.
The DS has two games coming soon. In the fall, the DS Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story RPG will be released in a localized version, in which the characters move through Bowser's body on the lower screen, while Bowser is up to his own mischief on the screen above. And if you can't wait that long for a new Mario fix, Mario vs. Donkey Kong: March of the Minis is a Mario puzzler game, downloadable from the DSiWare service on Monday.
