Nintendo announces Super Mario Bros. Wonder with plenty of new screenshots

Anyone wondering how Nintendo plans on closing out 2023 for the Switch got their answer at todayโ€™s Nintendo Direct: with a return to Marioโ€™s 2D sidescrolling roots.

The game โ€” the first new Mario sidescroller in more than a decade โ€” is arriving on October 20th, and by the looks of things, itโ€™s going to be everything weโ€™ve come to know and expect from the iconic series, with a few new wrinkles added in. Nintendo has already released plenty of screenshots from the new game, so take a look, and start the countdown for October!
