Hmm, what's this Mario game you're talking about? I haven't heard anything about a new Mario for the Cube... But that would be great.

Actually, I hadn't played Mario64 before I got Sunshine, and I thought Sunshine was fantastic. I didn't realize how derivative it was until I got my DS and Mario64DS.

That, unfortunately, is obviously a 3d-rendered mockup. But speaking of pictures, someone in Nintendo took a shot of what looks like a prototype system and a boot screen. It certainly looks real to me, but unfortunately since it's a prototype running debug software it won't tell us anything about the actual final system :-(

Here's an image (really big, sorry):

This Mario game. Truth be told, I enjoyed Sunshine more than the original :o

Ahh, 128. I had forgotten it, honestly :-P Until I see it on EB with a date, I'm not going to hold my breath.

I enjoyed Sunshine more, too. It definitely felt more open-ended, it looked beautiful, and I really feel that the water cannon added to the gameplay, as small a change as it seemed. Also, the camera in 64 *really* irritated me. Sunshine's was much better.

I wouldn't take EB too seriously either. They have Duke Nukem Forever on there every year with a new release date.
