To give some insight into how much nintendo will hype SMG....
This is a direct quote from the Official Nintendo E3 Press Kit, under their news stories that they are promoting. The specific quote comes from an article entitled "Nintendo Reveals Incomparable Breadth of Upcoming Games"...
Super Mario Galaxy : The latest masterpiece by legendary video game designer Shigeru Miyamoto puts a smile on the face of everyone who plays it. Until now, no game has matched the sheer fun and sense of delightful awe produced by the groundbreaking Super Mario® 64. Using the Wii Remote and Nunchuk™, players navigate iconic hero Super Mario™ through a series of planets, each with its own gravity, chaotic challenges and power-ups. The game bursts through the screen in vivid artistic detail, and a second player can even provide some assistance along the way. It blasts off Nov. 12.
The line that I put in bold there tells me that Nintendo is well aware of the Gem they have based on the reactions from reviewers. I seriously doubt they are going to let a Franchise Cornerstone like Mario go unnoticed when they have feedback so overwhelmingly positive.
