New Super Mario Bros for Wii was a pleasant 2D surprise amongst all the motion control monkeying around at E3 earlier this year, and while we knew it would be out in time for Christmas, we’ve now got the launch pegged down to the day. Read on to find out when you can get old school, mushroom style once more.
Taking its cue from the Nintendo games of old and the New Super Mario Bros DS adventures, New Super Mario Bros is a manic platformer with all the pipes and power-ups you’d expect, plus a few surprises like fantastic multiplayer thrown in, and Ninty has confirmed that it’ll be out in the UK and Europe wide on 20 November.
New Super Mario Bros for Wii: hands-on video
If you’ve peeped our New Super Mario Bros hands-on video already, you’ll know we’re already hooked from our first play, and Nintendo has let slip about a few more features to make it more enticing: there’s also a penguin power-up to slide across levels on your stomach, and a dynamic help feature, which will show you how to complete a level if you get stuck. It’s shaping up to be the one of the prime titles this Winter so stay tuned for more coverage.
Out 20 November | £TBC | Nintendo
