Further to its confirmation of a North American release date yesterday, Nintendo has just this moment confirmed a UK release date of June 11th for Super Mario Galaxy 2.
The release date is even earlier than the mid-summer prediction muttered earlier today and will delight the platform holder’s legion of loyal fans.
Though the game – which was originally conceived as a ‘remix’ of Super Mario Galaxy – will feature some content seen in its predecessor, it is said to now contain around 90 per cent new material.
It is expected to be one of the year’s best sellers and, considering Nintendo’s proven ability to keep its products performing at retail, could yet challenge for Christmas chart supremacy.
