My prediction is that the new Mario game will be a launch title for Revolution. Nintendo has always relied on spectacular Mario launch titles to sell its consoles in the past (Super Mario Bros., Super Mario World, Super Mario 64) and the mediocrity of Luigi's Mansion was a big reason why GameCube was not as popular as previous Nintendo consoles.

...I'm still hoping they release something big and unexpected come October (for the 20th anniversary of SMB). Perhaps they're being vague and mysterious about this title on purpose...?

Go Moon!

*wonders how long it will be before people start discussing the Nintendo 512*

Luigi's Mansion (a good game) had nothing to do with GameCube's poor sales.

Is there any other sites that have confirmed this besides SPonG? Until that happens, I won't believe it.

Fez: Guys, what happens in Cat & Mouse if the cat is retarded?

all I got to say is, DUUUUH!

I knew they would be saving it for the Revolution.

I wonder if Mario 128/256/512/whatever is really ever going to come out. Still though, a Mario launch title with this much secercy for the Revolution would be awesome.

Looks like it's going to be on Revolution.

i cant believe this.the only Mario platformer(by that I mean Mario as a playable character)had to be a game like SMS.that game was dissapointing IMO. Super Mario 64 is great compared to its lame sequel.hopefully Mario 128 ( or whatever its gonna be called )will change all that and will fix the flaws in SMS.

I don't want to post a new topic, and I'm not going to be mean, but what is the big deal of SM128 for Gamecube? You could just buy the Revolution which is only going to be less than $300. I also want to address how SM64 is overrated. What's the matter, you can't even afford the Revolution? I can afford the Revolution and I have every Mario game for Gamecube. I got them when they all came out. So 10 x 50 = $500. So what?

The price isn't the problem. If they save it for Revolution, that's less regular Mario games overall. If they released it for Gamecube, then they could make a whole new regular Mario game for the Revolution. We really, really need more Mario platformers. Having at least 3 main Mario games per console, like in the old days, isn't so much to ask for, is it?

Yipee, more for me to miss out on!

Who cares if there aren't main Mario games? Spin-offs are what introduce new stuff. I like main Mario games as much as the next guy but I like spin-offs better.

Delaying SM128 to revolution wouldn't change how many games we have. It's Super Mario 128. It's not Obligatory GameCube Super Mario Game or Obligatory Revolution Super Mario Game.
