Forgot to mention it here, but for anyone following this thread, BS Mario Excitebike and BS Mario USA credits went up.

There was only one name we couldn't confirm for Mario Excitebike: 高橋 暁 -- family name is probably Takahashi, and the given name can be Akira, Satoru, Satoshi, Toru, Aki, Kyo, Gyo...

I got the titles already, but the names are going to give me trouble. I have someone who might be able to help, though.

Edit: I finally took a look at the names, and thanks to the Aoni Production site (http://www.aoni.co.jp - they are listed under Special Thanks) I know who all the voice actors are except one: 呑奈　純, the voice of Pink Birdo.

Latest News / New Mario Wii bundles coming for the holidays

« on: October 11, 2011, 11:23:30 PM »

Just in time for the holidays, Nintendo will offer two different Wii bundles, combining Mario games with the new Wii model. The "newly configured" Wii has a slightly different look and does not play GameCube games.

Nintendo of America released details on Tuesday of their upcoming New Super Mario Bros. Wii bundle, which includes a black Wii console and a Super Mario Galaxy soundtrack CD. According to the press release, the bundle will be released on October 23 with a MSRP of $149.99. NOA has no plans to sell the Super Mario Galaxy 2 music CD separately.

Currently only announced for Europe, a blue Wii and Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games bundle is scheduled for a November 18 release.
