Miyamoto Acknowledges "Super Mario 4"

[AutoSaver]

Shigeru Miyamoto has confirmed to Korean website Betanews that Super Mario 4 is a project that his team over at Nintendo are working on. The translation is a little rough as expected as it’s not absolutely apparent whether Super Mario 4 is the Nintendo 3DS game Nintendo confirmed it’s working on or Super Mario Wii U.

“We have Mario team in company, so we are making Super Mario 4. But only I can say is, we just announced that game. More details will be revealed later.”
- Shigeru Miyamoto

I'd have to agree. It is a bit confusing on whether he is talking about the Wii U game or the 3DS one.

More confusing they are calling it Super Mario 4. Is Mario World now retconned?

At this point, I couldn't care any less about the series. A 3D platformer may be interesting, but as long as it's in a style that hasn't been done before.

Besides Japan, where was Mario World called Super Mario 4?

I'd like another like Mario 64, with flying! Galaxy had flying but wasn't used very much and didn't return for the sequel. T__T 3D Land should of had flying, but they ruined the Tanooki.

I consider it, it just wasn't named that over here.

That should count a lot though. Since you know, the guy who created Mario, and the company that owns it is well...Japanese.

Perhaps it's a sequel to Super Mario 3D Land called Super Mario 4D Land? o.0

Yeah, I know, they pulled a Final Fantasy with the numbering and all, and the Mario Universe did actually add things from Super Mario USA... Times were a bit different then.

Perhaps it's a sequel to Super Mario 3D Land called Super Mario 4D Land? o.0

Day and Night time cycles? So innovative.

We have to use 25th Anniversary logic.
Mario 2 JP only counts in All Stars
Mario 2 USA is considered the sequel.
