So it's the Nintendo Developer's Roundtable (first one) today, about 3DS games and Skyward Sword. Um, I mean Wii games, but that's the only one of those mentioned so far.

-Super Mario 3DS is trying to be more like the old games, but in 3d -- it's got flags again, the Tanuki suit, is set in the more classic style world (not Galaxy), etc.
-Game plays great
-Luigi's Mansion 2 is by Next Level games, with Miyamoto assisting. Miyamoto decided to make it because he wanted to. It's an early 2012 title.
-Skyward Sword looks and plays great. The overworld is a giant dungeon, and dungeons are basically dungeons within dungeons. You fly around from place to place on giant birds and can land at different points in the overworld, or fly back through the sky to the hub town in the sky. You will revisit dungeons in this one, so it's not just "go through each dungeon once". New map to make that easier considering that you do need to go back to places later.
-Mario Kart definitely 2011
