Nintendo has just announced that Super Mario Galaxy 2 will be hitting North American store shelves on May 23. That gives Nintendo fans exactly 3 months to save up for what is sure to be one of the biggest releases of 2010 and a much-anticipated sequel for Wii owners.
So get that money saved, as this Summer could be a wallet-busting frenzy for Nintendo fans. In the meantime, we'll have up some brand new screenshots and video of the game later today for you to check out, so stay tuned!

cool!
Gotta start saving up now for the release.....oh yea ,still gotta get super mario galaxy first
Yay! Never bought the first one but I'll get this one 'cos of Yoshi.
Wow, everytime I hear about this game, it's release gets bumped up.
MAY?! I need to rethink my purchases now, I was expecting this in August...!
Wait, MAY? Dude... I got HeartGold/SoulSilver next month, Monster Hunter 3 in April, and now Super Mario Galaxy in MAY?!
...ROCK ON!!!
Awesome!
woooohey!
Mario time!!!
Just preordered on Amazon. Now I am committed to get the money saved up to cover it before they bill me.
Calendar has been marked!
Let's hope that's around the same time over here.
Awesome! Can't wait to see the new footage and screens. :3
It-sa me... Mario... Haaalloo!
Huh, Mario and Metroid in summer. Maybe Zelda really is coming this year. I have to wonder what else could be the holiday release.
YES!!!!! Just 4 days before my birthday! Thank you Nintendo!!!
wooooooot!!!!!
Poor Sin and Punishment 2. It is slap bang in the middle of a Mario-Metroid sandwich...
Yeah, that does bode well for Zelda at holidays. This is good news for sure, can't wait. Looks as good as the other and very similar. you know what they say: if it ain't broke...
MAY!? I need to finish SMG1 ASAP!!
w00t, w00t and once again WOOOOOOT!
Can't wait!
So unexpected! I love it!
Between No More Heroes 2 and Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, Red Steel 2, Monster Hunter 3, Shiren the Wanderer, Super Mario Galaxy 2, and Metroid, this is turning into one awesome year for the Wii. This announcement will make the Wii-haters eat their words.
This is... too much... in one day... to process... with the announcements... Mario Galaxy 2... and Metroid... I can't contain--BLARF! [vomits from excitement]
I hope nintendo anounce it's European release date at the European media summit.
I'm sure that the European release will be just a few days later. Great that Yoshi is in this game!
Nice!!! I look forward to this day. Instant buy on day one.
OMG.
faints
Europe: TBA that would be right! Nintendo don't like announcing stuff for Europe, We're wait... Won't we, Yep.
YES!!!!!!!!!!
May? That's way earlier than I expected. With Sin and Punishment 2 and Metroid so close to each other its gonna be an exciting couple of months!
trailer is up at gametrailers
This year is already incredible, and so much we still don't have concrete dates for.
May? That's very soon! Hope we get it soon afterwards! Any news on an EU date?!
INSTA-BUY! (Already pre-ordered from last year btw!)
Alright! Looks like Summer will be better than ever.
I have my copy reserved already, and also I read online the orchestra music is back!
Just in time for my birthday! YAY!!! =D
(better be good)
Why is the release date so close to Lost Planet 2? WHY!? Stupid Nintendo and Capcom making me broke. That release date was seriously unexpected.
2010 is definitely Nintendo's year!
Holy crap! awesome news, Still need to play Tatsunoku Vs Capcom, Silent Hill, A Boy & his Blob, Muramasa, Dead Space Extraction, Wii Fit Plus, Pikmin ect....Sigh ;p
MM10 in only 8 days baby! time to celebrate.
Anyways, since SMG2 and Metroid Other M are being release earlier than expected that only means that Zelda Wii will hit before christmas.
My B-Day
My birthday is the day after this! I know my present!!!!
It's a real shame my mom's birthday is the day BEFORE...otherwise I would so "give" this to her.
School's out forever.
Also I better start playing Galaxy 1....
Please Nintendo announce the date for Europe.
YA!
2010 seems to be a great year. EXPENSIVE but GREAT! Now if only Amazon would give the $10 discount on pre-orders like it did for New Super Mario Bros Wii . . .
I'm so glad they got rid of Mario's Pointer controls for the traditional platforming parts of the game, because in the first it was in the way AND it made getting Starbits too easy, the same goes for killing enemies...
Anyways trailer looks amazing! hopefully the Koopa Kids are back, but i doubt it ;p
Nintendo, you are making me very happy. I want to hug you. Very tightly.
OmG thats 1 day before my B-DAY
. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh window breaks and screen moniter cracks OMGGGGGGG cant wait this is going to be one of the greatest gaming years ever
Yay! I love you, Nintendo!
Super Mario Galaxy 2, Hoo-Ray!
Geeze, I'm giddier than a school-girl right now
WHAT? I better start playing the first one. I though I had until August.
Epic Yoshi
About time we get confirmation. Looks like I'll have to save up more money.
Because I want it on launch.
Didn't see it mentioned on the site here (I'm sure it's here somewhere) but in case anyone else missed it a whole slew of videos are up on the NIntendo Channel.
So, does this mean a price drop for SMG or will both games still be $50? Seems like a perfect time to launch Players Choice, especially with all of the Wii games that have sold over a million copies worldwide.
And my prediction for holiday shoppers - Wii Music 2
YES!!!
I really hope they impliment lots of new things in this one. Yoshi is awesome, but maybe some cool new planet concepts? While there is nothing wrong with moer of the same (SMG was Amazing!) Im hoping for some new twists. Dont let me down nintendo!
I'm so relieved! In the new trailer Yoshi's eyes don't look as creepily blue.
Can't wait!
Here's my money Nintendo (holds out hand)...keep the change.
Galaxy 2!!!!!!!!!
