E3 2012: New Super Mario Bros. 2 Jumps onto 3DS 19th August
Posted by Mike Mason
Get your fire flowers ready
Hold onto your hats: New Super Mario Bros. 2 will be coming to Nintendo 3DS in the US on 19th August.
The latest pillar of the 2D Mario revival was scheduled at Nintendo's E3 press conference. We'll learn more about the game tomorrow at a show just for 3DS tomorrow night. It'll be broadcast live on e3.nintendo.com at 6pm Pacific, 9pm Eastern, 2am UK time.
For now, we're told "it's all about the gold". Are you looking forward to shining with Mario once more in summer?

Even though Mario has been done to death lately, it's still nice to have the classic platforming action that he's know and loved for!

Wario BETTER be in this game. It just screams for his involvement.

This looks fun. Between Mario and Wario are there any gold coins left in the mushroom kingdom? They're probably richer then House Toadstool 10x over.

The problem I see with this game is that it'll be easy to get 1ups. FAR easier...
Also.. Why is this under New Super Mario Bros U? lol

Apparantly this title may have different difficulty settings according to ONM.
Insta-buy, not DL.
