Well, at least most of you guys will be happy if it happens. It will be really creepy if it does now that I've dreamt it.
It may not seem likely, but up until it was announced, I didn't think Luigi's Mansion 2 was very likely either. I don't think it would be a wise move though, Sunshine was the least beloved of the 3D console Mario games, and Nintendo should be aware of this, plus the Gamepad doesn't seem to lend itself to FLUDD. (Though ironically the Wiimote does, much more than even the Gamecube controller)
For me, Sunshine's lack of variety was too bitter a pill to swallow. Mario 64 conditioned me to expect a 3D Mario game to offer a broad range of challenges across diverse environments, and FLUDD and the tropical setting just didn't cut it. Plus I found the level design pretty dull.
Furthermore, I want Wii U's 3D Mario to be as fresh and mind-blowing as Mario 64 and Mario Galaxy were, not a sequel to something we've already seen.
