The designer predicts long-term sales success for the new game.
According to a Games Ma-Ya manager in attendance at a retailer briefing in Japan, Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto hosted a live multiplayer session for New Super Mario Bros. Wii at the event. Games Ma-Ya's blog offered more details on the highly-anticipated title.
During the session, Miyamoto stated that "It's a Mario that will continue selling even after one year has passed", making reference to the original game's success on the DS, as well as the long-running sales of other Wii and DS titles.
The Games Ma-Ya manager also mentioned the game's distinctive "red packaging". Nintendo has yet to confirm the final look of the game's box art or case.
