Skyward Sword, Super Mario 3D Land dated for Australia
Nintendo announces release dates for Link and Mario's latest adventures; both Skyward Sword and Super Mario 3D Land due Down Under on November 24.
Nintendo Australia has announced that The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword and Super Mario 3D Land will both launch in Australia on November 24.
The announcement, which came via the publisher's website, should come as welcome news to local Nintendo fans worried that the Aussie release of both Link and Mario's latest adventure would be delayed.
In Australia, Skyward Sword will launch with a limited edition bundle that includes a copy of the game, a music CD featuring selected songs from The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Symphony, and a special Wii Remote Plus that has the Hylian Crest on it.
Super Mario 3D Land is an all-new installment in the 26-year-old franchise and contains both 2D and 3D sequences, where the action takes place on the device's top screen and the bottom screen serves as a menu.
