Nintendo will have a 3D Mario to show on WII U at E3 this year.

If it doesn't release in november along with the console ill be disappointed.

Well then, I think you may need to prepare to be disappointed

The odds of having 2 3D and a 2D Mario within a year of each other are incredibly, INCREDIBLY slim IMO...

Not really, since SMB3DL was made by only one of the EAD groups. I wouldn't be surprised if EAD1 (they made Galaxy 1) were being trusted with producing a  Galaxy Spinoff/brand new 3D Mario Title for launch.

While i agree that 2 3D Mario's and one 2D Mario  in a single year is extremely unlikely, you're forgetting that 2D and 3D Marios are different, and you're also forgetting that 3DS releases have been top priority for Nintendo to increase sales on the console in the last 12 months.

Now, given the importance of Mario, and the high expectations of Wii U graphics, i would say Nintendo made a mistake  by making another 2D Mario for the WII U Launch (this is obviously what we're expecting in November), but regardless they need to show HD Mario in a 3D environment in order to seel the system.

I suppose you're right. I'd love to see a 3D Mario game for WiiU launch period at E3, but the New Super Mario Bros. Mii game would be more likely.

I think the 1st party games to show off the graphical capabilties will be the new Zelda, and Pikmin 3. Also, I'd expect Monolith's new game to really show off the graphical frunt, but I'd imagine we won't see that for a while...

And of course, Assassin's Creed, Rayman Legends etc. from 3rd parties. We'll know soon enough!
