Default Rumor: Mario Kart Wii - 2007

http://www.n-europe.com/news.php?nid=10776

Quote:
One of our trusted sources has given us some news about the Wii version of Mario Kart.

The game will be shown at this year's E3, which is something that everything expects anyway. What's more is that it will be release this year in Europe. Specific details on the game are still unknown - just the planned release date and the fact that it exists is known - but we will find all that out next week anyway.

Mario Kart for the Wii will be a "replacement" for Super Smash Bros. Brawl in Europe, which will sadly miss Europe this year, and it will be out early 2008 instead. However, this also means that the US will not see Mario Kart until early 2008, and they will be getting Smash Bros. Brawl in 2007. This means that Nintendo fans in both Europe and the US will have something to moan about (they'll have something to be glad about, too....but there will probably be more moaning).

Also note that at the beginning of June Patrick Nagel, Deputy Marketing Manager for Nintendo Germany, stated that Europe will see Metroid Prime 3 and Mario Kart in 2007. We have reason to believe that he really was speaking the truth then.

As we have already said, we trust this source, but have put this up as rumour rath
I don't see this happening, although I see a teaser of the game at E3.

Do you think we could see a U.S. release of Smash Bros. in August?

I don't see how Mario Kart games take a lot of development time, so it might come sooner than expected.

I guess SSBB needs a lot of translating, with all the trophy info etc. and that might cause a delay in Europe..... Annoying countries who won't bother to learn English.
