We all know what to expect when playing a new Mario game: great level design, catchy music, vibrant graphics and having to save that stupid Princess that always ends up getting captured (honestly if I were Mario I’d would of given up in the N64 days).

It’s been a few weeks since E3 and not many people are talking about Nintendo’s press conference. One of the biggest surprises was having two Mario games announced and released in one year, New Super Mario Bros. for Wii being one of them.
New Super Mario Bros Wii borrows a lot of its features from the Nintendo DS game. One thing the DS doesn’t have is 4 player CO-OP, new levels, the abilty to play as two Toad characters and Luigi. The CO-OP is also competitive, each player will be ranked on their score, number of coins collected, and enemies killed. New items such as the Propeller Suit, and the ability to change into Penguin Mario are sure to add plenty of variety. Much more info will be available closer to the game’s release date this holiday season. Be sure to check back for further updates and for now feast your eyes on these exclusive screenshots.

Although I hate the name, it still could prove to be a blast when it hits its release date sometime by the end of this year.
