New Super Mario Bros. 2 announced

A new New Super Mario Bros. game is coming to the 3DS. This will be a side-scrolling Mario title in the same vein as the New Super Mario Bros. for the DS and the Wii, and should not come as much of a surprise considering how well-received both of those games were. What does surprise me a little bit is that this 3DS New Super Mario Bros. will be out by August. This Mario title follows hot on the heels of Super Mario 3D Land, and I'd wager there will be a sequel to 3D Land within the next year or so (much like Nintendo did with Super Mario Galaxy).
