Mario 128 and Pikmin 2 have been officially announced for a Japanese release later this year. No doubt that Mario 128 will be a true sequel to Mario 64 without the "Fludd" water pistol and will hopefully have the imagination in the worlds that Mario Sunshine missed.
Now 2004 is looks bigger and better than ever for European gamers and as seems that Nintendo is not ready to give up making its fantastic franchises like it did with the N64.
Also, the rumour is now bigger than ever that there is a 3D zelda in the making for a Japanese 2004 release, this news shouldn't surprise most of us for it has been a rumour ever since "Cel-Shading" was announced for Zelda: TWW.
No word on the European release, but they should be coming to PAL 'cubes everywhere around April 2004.
