    I never was too interested in buying Wii Fit. And this hint about a new Mario game makes me wonder...
    maybe Nintendo will make a Mario Wiiware game?

    if it's sports, I'll be SOOO mad

    that really won't help sales any

    but what would be cool is a mix of all the 3D Mario games, lyk you could explore the mushroom kingdom, peach's castle, dalpheno island AND go into space
    but it better have less invisible walls

    I really hope its a platformer 2D or 3D because all Mario platformers are good.

    Just as long as Mario isn't cleaning again. Although I really wouldn't mind a new Luigi's Mansion. I think it would translate well with the Wiimote.

    Oh crap! Hopefully the new mario game is a new Mario Galaxy! That game rocked!

    They said "new" guys, not remake. And Gamespot's right, it's sadly too early to pray for Mario Galaxy 2 (one of my faves on Wii). Hopefully it's not something lame like Mario basketball or whatever...

    a 3D remake of Super Mario World?!?
    that's my dream

    whatever it is, it better have other characters than just Mario and Luigi.
    mabey Wario Waluigi and Peach, and all able to ride Yoshi

    "...numerous Mario franchise," ha ha. Mario's the gaming equivalent of a rabid adulterer...

    I thought Nintendo makes only 1 3D Mario Platformer, each game console. But this time 2? Hopefully Mario 2 wii going to be good.
